Abstract
A machine (1) for preparing and dispensing a beverage has an actuation arrangement (5) that includes an actuator (57) and an actuation transmission (50,510,520,530) actuated by the actuator (57). The actuation transmission (50,510,520,530) has an actuation distributor (50) actuated by the actuator (57) and a first actuation output device (510) having a first input port (511) and a second actuation output device (520) having a second input port (521). The actuation distributor (50) has a first output port (50′) for operating the first actuation output device (510) via the first input port (511) and a second output port (50″) for operating the second actuation output device (520) via the second input port (521). The first actuation output device (510) and the second actuation output device (520) are displaced in a non-identical manner via the first and second output ports (50′,50″).
