     SYSTEM AND PROCEDURE FOR PROGRAMMABLE CONTROL OF DOSAGE OF BEVERAGES OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a system and method of service and control of beverages, by dosing them from the bottles that support a support / structure, with A dose control system that records the number of services of each beverage, regulates the size of these drinks and shows when one of the suppliers (connected to a bottle) is running out of liquid. 10 It comes to solve the problem of improving the control and supervision of the use of beverages and doses by the manager, as well as speeding up the service and customer service in times and circumstances of great influx. The advantages of this invention are the following: Service times towards the customer are considerably reduced, since the waiter does not have to look for the bottle he needs on the shelves, remove the cap and put it back on the shelf for each order. The loss of product is avoided since liquid is not spilled over the bar and the doses are exact (with the consequent saving for business and / or customer satisfaction compared to manual dosing that may be low or too long) . The number of doses served is controlled, which eliminates invitations or thefts when squareing the box. The machine liquid flows constantly without jams (manually sometimes you have to shake the bottles to extract the liquid). You can regulate the quantity served by each dispenser (bottle), by customizing several preset quantities for said dispenser from the controller, each of the preset quantities for the same dispenser will be stored in the system so that later they are easy to select (by the personal) with a
    DESCRIPTION
    5 10 15 20 single click on the interface, allowing things like changing from "shot mode" to "double cup" mode, etc ... for the same supplier. The service of a dose is very fast, it starts with just pushing a lever, using the same hand that holds the cup or glass, leaving the dispenser to serve liquid when the dose is complete, although the activation lever is still pressed but cutting off the flow of liquid if the vessel is removed before the dose is completed. The system is designed to be operated by company personnel (eg waiters) and allows the bottles to be changed very quickly as they are emptied, as they are fully accessible and visible, without mediating enveloping or similar housings. The system is designed so that it can communicate and integrate with a POS program (modern registrar), to work together, allowing things like squaring the money charged with the doses served or not allowing the beverage service until receiving the payment, between others. The industrial application of this invention is within the sector of beverage dispensing and dosing machines and more specifically of programmable beverage dose control systems.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Although no invention has been found identical to that described, we present below the documents found that reflect the state of the art related to it. 5 Thus, document ES2370434A 1 refers to a liquor dispenser, constituted by a parallelepiped casing provided with an electronic circuit, suitably held by means of fastening to the floor or wall surface, it presents on one side of its front face a manual dispenser of glasses, and on the opposite side of the same face a means of payment. In the central part 10 and covering almost the entire front face is a semicircular cover of transparent material, behind which are placed, with the outlet side down, at least one row of bottles with their respective sanitary solenoid valve that said Bottles contain previously mixed concentrated liquor. Said invention does not refer to the programmable control system 15 provided by the main invention. ES1134965U proposes a dispensing beverage machine comprising a wrapping housing and a dosing system for one or more beverages, which can be dispensed by dosing one or more drinks independently or collectively. As in the previous case, the control system that has the main invention on doses is not described. Document ES 1138584U describes a self-service beverage dispensing device that includes a housing provided with a base, intended to be supported on a floor, and walls and a ceiling that surround an empty interior space integrating said housing: -at least a beverage container to be dispensed located in its lower half and inside the empty space; - at least one device for cooling the beverage to be dispensed disposed within the empty space and connected to the beverage container to be dispensed which is at least one; - at least one beverage dispenser accessible from the outside of the housing connected to the cooling device, said beverage dispenser being at least one vertically superimposed on aservice surface accessible from outside the housing, said service surface being an area and being at a distance from the beverage dispenser sufficient to place a glass or cup between the service surface and the beverage dispenser; -at least one measuring device for the amount of beverage 5 dispensed and / or remaining; -at least one automatic opening and closing valve of said at least one beverage dispenser; -at least a payment detector device and / or a user recognition system; -a control unit that governs said at least one automatic valve and connected to the payment detector device and / or the user recognition system and the device 10 measuring the amount of beverage dispensed and / or remaining, than the roof of The housing is more than 300 cm above the base, or the roof of the housing lacks horizontal or near horizontal areas accessible from outside the housing, or the roof has an area less than 50% of the area of the base of the dispensing device and because the walls of the housing, except for the service surfaces, lack horizontal or near horizontal areas accessible from outside the housing of an area sufficient to inscribe circles of 3 cm in diameter, making it impossible to deposit vessels or cups in these areas, and hindering its use as a support point for climbing the dispensing device. Among other differences, it can be noted that the use of this invention is for self-service while the main application of the main invention is in the reserved use of authorized personnel in premises such as waiters who provide a service to customers. ES2556789T3 refers to a system and machine for preparing 25 beverages or food products of a cartridge containing one or more ingredients, said cartridge comprising a base, an outlet opening in the base, and a collar extending from the base of the cartridge around the exit opening; said machine comprising a retention receptacle for receiving and retaining a cartridge during the preparation process 30 and a machine element; that the machine element comprises valve means formed downstream of the retention receptacle, whose valve means open at a predetermined pressure, and whose machine element is configured to interact with the cartridge collar when the cartridge isinsert into the retention receptacle; said cartridge collar being configured to determine the pressure in the cartridge during the preparation process by virtue of its interaction with the machine element. The described machine moves away from the description of controllable beverage dose dispenser 5 as described in the main invention. Conclusions: As can be seen from the research carried out, none of the documents found solves the problems raised as the proposed invention does. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 10 The system and method of programmable control of beverage doses object of the present invention is constituted from a support structure with fasteners for at least six bottles, which are inverted, each with its own valve Programmable dose control from a system with central controller and touch screen, which accounts for the number of doses served of each beverage or dispenser, distinguishing, at the time of counting, between the different personalized doses that are configured for said specific supplier , as well as warns that there is little drink in the bottle to be replaced by another and stops the dose service to the exact extent despite holding down the operating lever of the specific dispenser. The different dose sizes that can be assigned to each of the modes of the same dispenser or bottle, can be modified from the touch screen of the system with controller, being only manipulable after passing a verification code with password or fingerprint, while The option of changing a "mode" dispenser (selecting another previously saved dose size) is available directly for quick use, without prior verification. The stages in which the procedure for using said system is divided would be the following:i) Preselection of the amount of dose of each drink in the system controller and placing the bottles upside down on their support, without cap, performing the necessary tests and checks. ii) Once the system and the bottles have been set up, proceed with the regular service of dosed drinks: the waiter takes an empty glass with his hand and places it under one of the suppliers of this system, pushing a lever that is located under said dispenser, whereby the system (4) will serve and count a full dose of liquid. The flow of liquid will be interrupted in two cases: in the event that the quantity of liquid 10 corresponding to the dose size of the mode selected for this particular dispenser is completed; and in the event that the glass is removed (by pushing the lever) before the dose is complete. This liquid service will increase the counter corresponding to the selected mode of the dispenser used. In the event that the dispenser does not have the mode selected by the waiter 15 for service, before pushing the lever with the empty glass, it is necessary to press (on the system touch screen) the selector corresponding to the desired mode of This supplier. iii) At any time, the amount of the dose served for each beverage can be modified from the same control system, as well as other 20 characteristics can only be altered by accessing a configuration protected by security code such as service accounting utilities and system settings. iv) When the system detects low level of remaining beverage, the empty bottle will be replaced by a new one to continue with the regular service of 25 drinks. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS For a better understanding of the present description, some drawings accompanying a preferred embodiment of the present invention are attached: Figure 1: Front perspective view of the dosing machine object of the present inventionFigure 2: Schematic view of the touch screen of the programmable beverage dose control system Figure 3: Phase scheme of the system use procedure The numerical references appearing in said figures correspond 5 to the following constituent elements of the invention: 1 Structure support 2. Clamping elements 3. Control valve 4. System with controller 10 5. Touch screen 6. Number of doses served 7. Quantity of each dose 8. Empty bottle warning 9. Actuation lever 15 10. Code of verification to modify the doses DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT A preferred embodiment of the system and programmable control method of beverage doses object of the present invention, with reference to the numerical references, can be based on a support structure (1) with 20 elements clamp (2) for at least six bottles, which are inverted, each with its own control valve (3) of programmable doses from a system with central controller (4) with touch screen (5), which keeps track of the number of doses served (6) of each beverage, quantity of said doses (7), condition of the bottle (8) to be replaced by another and stops the loading of the 25 doses to the exact extent despite holding down the operating lever (9) of said doses. The dose amount can be modified from the touch screen (5) of the system with controller (4), being only manipulable after passing a verification code with password (10).The stages in which the procedure for using said system is divided would be the following: i) Preselection of the amount of dose of each beverage in the system controller (4) and placing the bottles upside down on their support (1) , without cap, performing the necessary tests and checks. ii) Once the system (4) and the bottles have been tuned, proceed with the regular service of dosed drinks: the waiter takes an empty glass with his hand and places it under one of the suppliers of this system (4), pushing a lever (9) that is under said dispenser, whereby the system (4) 10 will serve and count a full dose of liquid. The flow of liquid will be interrupted in two cases (1): in the event that the quantity of liquid corresponding to the dose size of the mode selected for this particular dispenser is completed; and (2) in the event that the vessel is removed (by pushing the lever) before the dose is complete. This liquid service will increase the counter corresponding to the selected mode of the dispenser used. In the event that the supplier does not have selected the mode that the waiter requires for the service, before pushing the lever with the empty glass, it is necessary to press (on the system touch screen) the selector corresponding to the desired mode of this pump. 20 iii) At any time you can modify from the same control system the (4) quantity of the dose served for each beverage, as well as other characteristics can only be altered by accessing a configuration protected by security code (10) such as utility accounting services and system adjustments. Iv) When the system (4) detects low level of remaining beverage, the empty bottle will be replaced by a new one to continue with the regular beverage service.
