    Improved infuser for alcoholic beverages, comprising a reservoir of ethyl alcohol and a water source that are hydraulically connected to a volumetric mixing chamber, a capsule holder downstream of the volumetric chamber for placement of single-dose essence capsules, and a delivery means of alcohol and water from the alcohol reservoir and the water source respectively, and characterized in that it is linked to a cooling system enabled for the cooling of the alcohol from the alcohol reservoir, and/or the water of the water source, and/or of the mixture both coming from the volumetric chamber.

    The first electrode 9 is connected to an alternating current generator 11 (to prevent electrolysis) and low amplitude, and the second electrode 10 is connected to a voltage comparator 12, with fixed and known input threshold voltage, and being at same time the alternating current generator 11 and the voltage comparator 12 linked to a
    5 microprocessor 13.
    In the initial state, that is, in the absence of liquid and only air inside, the high impedance between the first electrode 9 and the second electrode 10 is infinite, so that the electrical circuit will remain open.
    10 When the liquid medium (alcohol, water or the mixture of both) circulates inside it as shown by the arrows in Figure 8, the electrical circuit between the first electrode 9 and the second electrode 10 will close, and the signal appears. alternating current from the first electrode 9 in the second electrode 10.
    15 If the amplitude of the signal at the second electrode 10 is greater than the threshold voltage of the voltage comparator 12, the signal will be valid and the pulse count in the microprocessor 13 begins.
    20 Whenever an air bubble of sufficiently large size circulates as occupying the volume between the first electrode 9 and the second electrode 10, the electrical circuit will be interrupted, and in this way, the passage of liquid / air can be detected with the purpose of obtaining and after counting a certain number of pulses, a dose of 25 ml, for example.
    25 At the end of this process it is necessary to empty the flow meter 8 to return to the initial state by means of a small air pump. All functions are controlled by microprocessor 13.
    In another preferred embodiment represented in FIG. 9, the improved infuser for alcoholic beverages of the invention can also incorporate a third tank 14 with the same hydraulic connections as the ethyl alcohol tank 1 and the water source 2, ie , hydraulically connected to the volumetric mixing chamber 3, to drive means 4, and to a capsule holder 5 downstream of the volumetric chamber
    35 3 for placing single dose capsules of essences.

    Similarly, the cooling system 6 is enabled for cooling the liquid medium from the third tank 14, and / or the alcohol from the alcohol tank 1, and / or the water from the water source 2, and / or from the mixture of them coming from
    5 the volumetric chamber 3, as for example is schematically represented in Figure 9.
    Said third tank 14 is designed to, together with the alcohol tank 1 and the water source 2, provide the third-party liquid infuser, which preferably will be a flavored beverage, such as juices, to the improved infuser for alcoholic beverages of the invention.
    10 soda, tonic water, sparkling water, soft drinks, carbonated soft drinks, or drinks based on lemon tea, among others.
    The mission of this optional third tank 14 is to enable the perfected infuser of the invention of a third beverage to select its incorporation into the mixture (water + alcohol)
    15 essential, in order to prepare a combined beverage, that is, alcoholic beverage + flavored beverage.
    With this, the chances of getting combined instantly multiply with this addition. Therefore, they could be obtained in combination with, for example, whiskey and soda, or
    20 gin with tonic water, which are very very typical internationally.
    Also in this preferred embodiment represented in Figure 9, the flow meter means 8 is arranged and installed in the conduit from the third tank 14.
    Thanks to the technical solution described in the present invention, it is possible to provide the resulting mixture of already cold beverage, and consequently, to be able to serve it with an optimum temperature according to the preferences of the user.
    The improved infuser for alcoholic beverages of the present invention even allows its arrangement and installation in a refrigerator, preferably in an area thereof communicated with the exterior facade of the aforementioned appliance, as is the case with the current water and ice dispensers that Conventionally already incorporate some models of refrigerators, more specifically those that have a horizontal distribution
    35 fridge and freezer (two doors).
    8


    Furthermore, in its different preferred embodiments, it allows even much more accurate values of alcohol, water, and resulting mixture flow rates to be obtained, in order to establish exact values in the compositions of the different beverages that are
    5 must get.
    The details, shapes, dimensions and other accessory elements, as well as the materials used in the manufacture of the improved infuser for alcoholic beverages of the invention, may be conveniently replaced by others that are technically
    10 equivalents and do not depart from the essentiality of the invention or the scope defined by the claims set forth below.
