Abstract: An ice crusher (18) is attached to an ice dispenser (10) or to a combined ice and beverage dispenser. The ice crusher occupies minimal space in order to fit the dispenser into an existing space on a serving counter or in a beverage dispensing area. The ice crusher may also elevate the ice. In embodiments using this technique, the outlet (16) of the ice from the ice crusher is higher than the ice inlet. As the ice flows from a source of ice, such as an ice bin (12) , the ice is elevated while it is being crushed. The ice then flows from the outlet of the ice crusher down an ice chute (17) or other outlet of the ice crusher, into a cup or container as desired. Other embodiments convey the ice without lifting it, and still other embodiments dispense either crushed or cubed ice, as the consumer may select.

Abstract: To achieve mass concentration and to keep the center of mass at a low position when a water-cooled engine is mounted. In a saddle-ride type four-wheel vehicle, a radiator and a fuel tank are supported on lower frames, and arranged, side by side, so as to be distributed respectively on the right-hand side and on the left-hand side so as to overlap each other when viewed from a side. In addition, the fuel tank and the radiator are disposed at the rear of a front suspension arm and at the rear of an engine. As a result, the concentration of mass and the keeping of the mass at lower position are achieved. Moreover, the fuel tank and the radiator are allowed to stretch outwards beyond the upper frames. Consequently, the fuel tank can have a larger capacity and a ventilation path that leads to the radiator can be secured.
