Abstract
A machine (1) for making and dispensing frozen food products such as crushed-ice drinks, sorbets and the like comprises a tank (3) for containing and processing the product to be dispensed and a tap (4) whose dispensing duct (17) is connected to a discharge hole (15) which is made in the front wall (10) of the tank (3); the tap (4) in turn comprises a plug (19), able to move between a position (A) in which the duct (17) is open, allowing the product to be dispensed through the duct (17), and a position (C) in which the duct (17) is closed, preventing the product from coming out through the duct (17); when the plug (19) is in the closed position (C) it is coaxially inserted in a sealed fashion in a cylindrical tubular portion (17a) of the duct (17) extending longitudinally starting from the discharge hole (15) in a direction at a right angle to the front wall (10) of the tank (3).
