-Starting in 2017, I did some work for the robot lab of the RWU.
|
12
|
|
-There I got to know cocktail machines and later took part in [drinkrobotics](http://drinkrobotics.de/), where I did some work on our proper, big, cocktail machine Ubabot, [as seen on Hackaday / CCCamp2019](https://web.archive.org/web/20201108013437/https://hackaday.com/2019/08/22/ubabot-mixes-up-50-cocktails-to-quench-cccamp-thirst/).

|
|
-It originally used relais to power the pumps, but we had a motor driver PCB that we wanted to use instead, [so I wrote a Firmware for it](https://github.com/drinkrobotics/avr_pump_board).
|
14
|
|
-We got an award for this machine at Makerfaire Friedrichshafen, presented it at Makerfaire Hannover, visited the [Verschwörhaus Ulm](https://verschwoerhaus.de/) and various other events over the years.

-I designed a 3D model for a cap enclosing the large open glass bottles we have for some ingredients. It is a 2-color model that can be printed with a dual-nozzle printer, or you can just leave out the "filling" and print it with a single-nozzle printer. The design [can be found in my Git Repo](https://git.xythobuz.de/thomas/3d-print-designs/src/branch/master/cocktail-maschine).

-Also in 2017, as part of some experiments regarding dispensing drinks in a cocktail machine using carbon dioxide, I've built my own small Cubalibre machine.
|
118
|
|
-
|
119
|
|
-It is built inside a 12x1l Coke box and powered by a 3S quadcopter LiPo battery.
|
120
|
|
-The liquids are propelled using pressurized Co2 from a Sodastream cartridge with a proper pressure reducer (check eBay).
|
121
|
|
-The dispension is controlled by four solenoid valves, operated using relais.
|
122
|
|
-Custom built 3D printed [bottle cap adapters](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2445858) are used to pressurize coke bottles and take out the liquid.
|
123
|
|
-Everything is controlled by an Arduino, with a small OLED display and three buttons as the user interface.

-Also the Sodastream bottle and pressure reducer were only borrowed from a friend and I no longer have them.
