Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a capsule for the preparation of a beverage, such as coffee, milk, tea, etc., to a beverage preparation apparatus for use in connection with such capsule, and to a method for producing such capsule.
  • a beverage such as coffee, milk, tea, etc.
  • Capsules used in combination with an apparatus for the preparation of a beverage are well known in the art. These capsules offer a convenient way of making a beverage having a predetermined quality in an easy and quick manner.
  • the beverage preparation may start by inserting the capsule in an internal chamber of the apparatus, and further securing the capsule into the desired position by a closing mechanism of the apparatus.
  • the beverage can be prepared inside the capsule by using a mechanism to inject a fluid, such as water, under pressure.
  • the fluid injecting mechanism can be part of the closing mechanism and may be arranged to penetrate the capsule body at a predetermine location.
  • the capsule may further comprise an opening, which may be closable by a thin film, e.g. aluminium foil, or a membrane.
  • the fluid injecting mechanism injects fluid into the capsule, thereby causing a pressure build up inside the capsule, which in turn may cause the thin film closing the capsule opening to expand outwardly.
  • the thin film is arranged to erupt at a predetermine pressure either automatically or by coming in contact with another surface of the apparatus that can be arranged to penetrate the thin film in a predetermined way, thereby enabling the extraction of the beverage.
  • the quality of certain beverages can be greatly affected by the amount of pressure built up inside the capsule during the beverage preparation and further by fluid leaking around the capsule, which may dilute the beverage extracted. Therefore, it can be considered that the beverage quality can be considerably enhanced by maintaining a high pressure inside the capsule while ensuring that the internal chamber of the apparatus is fluid-tight, thereby preventing the dilution of the beverage.
  • a sealing member can be provided on the capsule, which is arranged to interact with the closing mechanism so as to form a fluid-tight barrier around the capsule, thereby sealing the capsule in the beverage preparation apparatus.
  • EP2029457 relates to a coffee capsule with a deformable sealing element.
  • the deformable sealing element is in the form of a rollover edge, and is arranged to deform under a predetermined amount of pressure exerted by a holding-down device and/or counterpart of an extraction device, i.e. closing mechanism.
  • the holding-down device and/or counterpart needs to have a certain shape to deform the rollover edge at a predetermine direction, as disclosed therein.
  • EP2489609 relates to a capsule for containing a preparation for a hot drink and comprises an annular groove, which forms the sealing element, destined to sealingly receive the upper peripheral edge of the containing wall of the internal chamber of an apparatus, i.e. the closing mechanism.
  • the groove in this case is sized according to the peripheral edge of the containing wall of the internal chamber of the apparatus, so as to form a fluid-tight barrier. Therefore, the capsule disclosed in EP2489609 can be considered as being compatible only with an apparatus having a peripheral edge that is sized and positioned according to the opening of the groove.
  • the seal between the capsule and the internal chamber of the apparatus is not optimal. This may lead to a drop of pressure inside the capsule during the preparation of the beverage, which may be lower than the pressure required for obtaining a beverage with a predetermined quality. This may have as an effect that the thin film closing the capsule opening may not fully deform as required, thereby causing the thin film to partially erupt or in some cases not erupt at all. As a result, due to the partial eruption the beverage extracted from the capsule may be of an inferior quality and only partially extracted.
  • this aim is achieved with the capsule for preparing a beverage showing the technical characteristics of the characterising part of the first claim.
  • a capsule for the preparation of a beverage comprises a body that has a suitable shape, e.g. beaker-shaped, cup-shaped, etc, for holding a dose of a beverage ingredient, such as coffee, tea, milk, and the like.
  • a rim structure can be provided on the outer surface of the capsule body, an edge of which may be arranged to extend outwardly from the outer surface of the capsule body, thereby forming an intermediate region between the rim structure edge and the capsule body.
  • a sealing element may further be provided on the rim structure, which protrudes from a remaining portion of an upper surface of the rim structure, i.e.
  • the capsule may be arranged to cooperate with a beverage preparation apparatus.
  • the apparatus may at least comprise an inner chamber arranged for receiving the capsule body and a closing mechanism, which secures and seals the capsule in the inner chamber by applying a predetermined sealing force on the sealing element.
  • At least part of the sealing element can be arranged such that the sealing element under the sealing force applied by the closing mechanism is plastically deformed in such a manner that a fluid-tight barrier is formed between the sealing element and the closing mechanism of the apparatus.
  • the fluid-tight barrier can be arranged to prevent the pressure inside the capsule, during the preparation of the beverage, to drop to a lower value than the one specified.
  • the sealing element can be provided on the rim structure at a predetermined distance away from the edge of the rim structure.
  • At least the inner side wall of the sealing element can be arranged at an angle with respect to an imaginary plane, which can be positioned in contact with a proximal end of the inner side wall that meets the upper surface of the rim structure and perpendicular to the remaining portion of the upper surface of the rim structure.
  • This orientation of the inner side wall may enable the closing mechanism to plastically deform the sealing element more effectively, thereby achieving a higher quality fluid-tight barrier between the sealing element and the closing mechanism of the apparatus that can withstand higher pressure amounts compared with known solutions.
  • the angle of the inner side wall in combination with the provision of the annular channel between the outer surface of the capsule body and sealing element may allow the pressure to be uniformly distributed around the capsule body, thereby enabling the sealing element to be equally deformed around the capsule body by the force applied by the closing mechanism.
  • the angle of the inner side wall of the sealing element may be preferably less than 90.0 degrees. More in particular the angle of the inner side wall of the sealing element may be at least 5.0 degrees, at most 80.0 degrees, preferably at most 70.0 degrees, more preferably at most 60.0 degrees, even more preferably at most 50.0 degrees.
  • the sealing element may be arranged to plastically deform in the direction of inclination of at least the inner side wall, which may be preferably away from the outer surface of the capsule body.
  • the direction of inclination may be towards the edge of the rim structure.
  • the present invention is not limited by any means to this direction and that other directions of inclination may be considered.
  • the pressure may be equally distributed around the sealing element, thereby enabling a more uniform deformation of the sealing element, resulting in an improved sealing of the sealing element.
  • the sealing element is integrally formed with the rim structure, which means that the sealing element together with the rim structure may be formed as a single piece made of the same material.
  • the rim structure may be integrally formed with the capsule body, which means that the rim structure and the capsule body and by extension the sealing element may be formed as a single piece made of the same material.
  • sealing element has the advantage that it may eliminate the need for using secondary-based materials on the ring structure, such as rubber- based rings or membranes. Furthermore, by forming the sealing element as part of the rim structure may result in enhancing the pressure resistance of the fluid-tight barrier, leading to a higher pressure built up inside the capsule, thereby enhancing the quality of the beverage. In particular, it has been found that the formation of the sealing element using this arrangement, results in a higher quality fluid-tight barrier between the sealing element and the closing mechanism of the apparatus that can withstand pressure amounts in the range of 1 .0 bar up to and including 40.0 bars. A further advantage of using this approach for forming the sealing element may be the simplification of the manufacturing process because the need for integrating different material having different manufacturing tolerances can be eliminated or at least minimised.
  • the sealing element protruding from the rim structure preferably is hollow.
