La demande de brevet EP 00113879.1 du 30 Juin 2000 au nom de la demanderesse concerne une cage à capsule (ou cartouche) , susceptible d'être montée dans une machine à café, comprenant une première partie avec un canal pour l'arrivée d'eau et une seconde partie formant un logement pour la capsule à extraire, dans laquelle un système de perçage indépendant du canal d'arrivée d'eau est prévu directement à la sortie dudit canal. La cartouche avec le moyen de retenue de substance solide tel que mentionné ci-dessus n'est pas suffisant pour garantir une complète propreté au moment du changement de cartouche.Patent application EP 00113879.1 of June 30, 2000 in the name of the applicant concerns a capsule cage (or cartridge), capable of being mounted in a coffee, comprising a first part with a channel for the water supply and a second part forming a housing for the capsule to be extracted, in which a system of independent drilling of the water inlet channel is planned directly at the exit of said channel. The cartridge with the solid substance retaining means as mentioned above is not enough to guarantee complete cleanliness when changing the cartridge.

Le but de la présente invention est de mettre au point une cartouche prévue pour la cage d'extraction telle que mentionné ci-dessus et qui ne conduit pas à des fuites de marc ou de toute autre substance solide au moment du changement de ladite cartouche.The purpose of the present invention is to develop a cartridge provided for the extraction cage such as mentioned above and which does not lead to leakage of marc or any other solid substance at the time of change of said cartridge.

La présente invention concerne une cartouche fermée selon la préambule de la revendication 1, dans laquelle le moyen garantissant la retenue de substance solide est une feuille de tissu scellée dans le fond de la coupelle sur deux zones, d'une part dans la partie centrale et d'autre part dans la partie périphérique dudit fond. Le scellage sur la partie périphérique du fond peut être effectué sur toute la périphérie ou seulement sur une partie de ladite périphérie. Il s'agit de disposer dans chaque cartouche un système anti-retour de marc de café ou de toute autre substance solide extraite dans ladite cartouche. Ce système doit convenir à la construction de la tête d'extraction selon la demande de brevet EP 00113879.1 précité.The present invention relates to a closed cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1, wherein the means ensuring the retention of solid is a sheet of fabric sealed in the bottom of the cup out of two zones, on the one hand in the central part and on the other hand in the peripheral part of said bottom. The seal on the peripheral part of the bottom can be performed over the entire periphery or only on part of said periphery. It is a question of having in each cartridge a non-return system of coffee grounds or any other solid substance extracted in said cartridge. This system must be suitable for the construction of the extraction head according to the aforementioned patent application EP 00113879.1.

Le tissu utilisé selon l'invention est d'une part d'un coût acceptable et d'autre part de réalisation simple, permettant une ouverture facile de la capsule par les pointes d'injection, résistant bien à l'eau chaude et donnant une bonne fermeture après l'extraction, c'est-à-dire au moment du dégagement de la cartouche.The fabric used according to the invention is on the one hand a acceptable cost and on the other hand simple implementation, allowing easy opening of the capsule by the injection tips, resistant to hot water and giving a good closure after extraction, i.e. when the cartridge is released.

Le tissu utilisé peut être tout type de tissu, tissé ou non tissé en fibres plastiques, en fibres végétales ou en fibres animales. Le tissu utilisé est de préférence du tissu en polypropylène,polyester, polyuréthane, polyamide, cellulose ayant une épaisseur comprise entre 15 et 200 microns. Le tissu est scellé à chaud dans les deux zones précitées du fond de la coupelle.The fabric used can be any type of fabric, woven or not woven from plastic fibers, vegetable fibers or animal fibers. The fabric used is preferably polypropylene, polyester, polyurethane, polyamide fabric, cellulose having a thickness between 15 and 200 microns. Fabric is heat sealed in both areas above from the bottom of the cup.

L'opercule est thermosoudée ou sertie sur le pourtour de la coupelle. On obtient ainsi une cartouche resistant à des pressions pouvant aller jusqu'à 15 bar dans le système d'extraction.The cover is heat sealed or crimped around the perimeter of the cup. This produces a cartridge resistant to pressures up to 15 bar in the system extraction.

La cartouche est remplie d'une substance pour la préparation d'une boisson , comme mentionné ci-dessus. Cette substance est de préférence du café torréfié et moulu.The cartridge is filled with a substance for the preparation of a drink, as mentioned above. This substance is preferably roasted coffee and ground.

Par coupelle, on entend aussi bien un élément tronconique, hémisphérique ou troncpyramidal. Il est bien entendu que le fond de la coupelle n'est pas obligatoirement plan.By cup, we also mean a frustoconical element, hemispherical or truncpyramidal. It is understood that the bottom of the cup is not necessarily flat.

Le corps principal de la cartouche, à savoir la coupelle, de forme tronconique et de nature semi-rigide, peut être constitué en un matériau choisi parmi l'aluminium ayant une épaisseur de 20 à 100 microns, un plastique pur ou multi-couches, un composite carton/aluminium/plastique et un composite carton/plastique.The main body of the cartridge, namely the cup, frustoconical in shape and semi-rigid in nature, can be made of a material chosen from aluminum having a thickness of 20 to 100 microns, pure or multi-layer plastic, a cardboard / aluminum / plastic composite and a cardboard / plastic composite.

L'opercule de la cartouche, de nature souple, peut être en un matériau choisi parmi l'aluminium d'une épaisseur de 15 à 60 µm et un multi-couches comprenant, soit du papier de 20 à 60 g/m2, du plastique d'une épaisseur de 20 à 60 µm et de l'aluminium d'une épaisseur de 5 à 20 µm, soit de l'EVOH ou du PVDC d'une épaisseur de 5 à 30 µm et du plastique (PP, PE ou PA) de 20 à 100 µm, soit du PET (5 à 30 µm) et du plastique (PP, PE) de 20 à 100 µm, soit du PET métallisé ou muni d'une couche haute barrière telle que SiO2.The cartridge seal, flexible in nature, can be in a material chosen from aluminum with a thickness of 15 to 60 µm and a multi-layer comprising either paper from 20 to 60 g / m2, plastic with a thickness of 20 to 60 µm and aluminum with a thickness of 5 to 20 µm, i.e. EVOH or PVDC with a thickness of 5 to 30 µm and plastic (PP, PE or PA) from 20 to 100 µm, i.e. PET (5 to 30 µm) and plastic (PP, PE) from 20 to 100 µm, i.e. PET metallized or provided with a high barrier layer such as SiO2.

La cartouche selon l'invention peut être de taille variable suivant le volume de café que l'on souhaite préparer. La dose de café peut varier entre 5 et 20 g, le diamètre de la cartouche est compris entre 2,5 et 6 cm et l'épaisseur du lit de café entre 10 et 40 mm. The cartridge according to the invention can be of variable size depending on the volume of coffee you wish to prepare. The dose of coffee can vary between 5 and 20 g, the diameter of the cartridge is between 2.5 and 6 cm and the thickness of the coffee bed between 10 and 40 mm.

La suite de la description est faite en référence aux dessins sur lesquels :

  • Fig. 1 est une représentation schématique de la cartouche selon l'invention et
  • Fig. 2 est une coupe partielle de la cage à capsule pour l'extraction de la cartouche de la figure 1.
    • The following description is made with reference to the drawings in which:
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of the cartridge according to the invention and
  • Fig. 2 is a partial section of the capsule cage for extracting the cartridge from FIG. 1.

    • La solution de l'invention selon la figure 1 est de prévoir dans la cartouche (10) présentant une coupelle (12) avec fond (13) et paroi latérale (14) avec un rebord circulaire (20) et un opercule (15) une couche de tissu (16) en polyuréthane ayant une épaisseur de 60 microns dans le fond (13). Cette couche est scellée sur deux zones du fond de la coupelle, à savoir dans la partie centrale (17) et dans la partie périphérique (18) dudit fond. Le scellage est fait sur toute la périphérie du fond. Le lit de café (19) est déposé sur le tissu (16). La cartouche représentée contient 5 g de café, elle a un diamètre de 35 mm et une épaisseur de lit de café de 30 mm. Le scellage de la partie centrale est fait sur un diamètre de l'ordre de 8 mm et celui de la partie périphérique sur une largeur de l'ordre de 1-2 mm.The solution of the invention according to Figure 1 is to provide in the cartridge (10) having a cup (12) with bottom (13) and side wall (14) with a circular rim (20) and a cover (15) a layer of fabric (16) in polyurethane having a thickness of 60 microns in the bottom (13). This layer is sealed on two areas of the bottom of the cup, namely in the central part (17) and in the peripheral part (18) of said bottom. The sealing is done on the entire periphery of the bottom. The coffee bed (19) is deposited on the fabric (16). The cartridge shown contains 5 g of coffee, it has a diameter of 35 mm and a coffee bed thickness of 30 mm. The sealing of the part center is made on a diameter of the order of 8 mm and that of the peripheral part over a width of the order 1-2 mm.

    La cage à capsules (1) selon la figure 2 comprend un filetage (2) pour être vissée sur la machine à café. Le logement (3) est nécessaire pour y disposer un joint permettant une bonne étanchéité du système. Le canal (4) permet l'arrivée de l'eau dans le logement (5) de la capsule. Directement à la sortie du canal (4), on dispose le système de perçage (6) constitué de 3 pointes avec ajourements (9).The capsule cage (1) according to FIG. 2 comprises a thread (2) to be screwed onto the coffee machine. The housing (3) is necessary to have a seal allowing a good sealing of the system. The channel (4) allows water to enter the housing (5) of the capsule. Directly at the outlet of the channel (4), there is the drilling system (6) consisting of 3 points with openwork (9).

    Lorsqu'on veut extraire la cartouche de la figure 1, on la place dans le logement (5) de la cage à capsule (1). Les pointes (6) vont entailler le fond de la coupelle et percer ou repousser le tissu entre les deux zones de scellage (17) et (18). L'intérêt de ce tissu est qu'il résiste au perçage et l'eau passe à travers ledit tissu et dans le cas où le tissu est quand même percé, en fin d'extraction sa souplesse et son élasticité lui permet de se refermer lorqu'on retire lesdites pointes de la cartouche et le marc ne sort pas par les entailles. On dispose ainsi d'une cartouche garantissant une bonne propreté du système d'extraction.When we want to extract the cartridge of figure 1, we place in the housing (5) of the capsule cage (1). The points (6) will cut the bottom of the cup and pierce or push the fabric between the two sealing areas (17) and (18). The advantage of this fabric is that it resists piercing and the water passes through said tissue and in the event that the fabric is still pierced, at the end of extraction its flexibility and elasticity allows it to close when the said points are removed from the cartridge and the grounds does not come out through the notches. We thus have a cartridge ensuring good system cleanliness extraction.
