Description

La présente invention concerne une cartouche fermée, prévue pour être extraite sous pression, contenant une substance pour la préparation d'une boisson choisie parmi le café torréfié et moulu, le thé, le café soluble, un mélange de café moulu et de café soluble, un produit chocolaté ou toute autre substance comestible déshydratée, comprenant une coupelle avec un fond avec partie centrale et partie périphérique et une paroi latérale ayant sensiblement la forme d'un tronc de cône et un rebord circulaire de diamètre supérieure au fond et un opercule soudé sur le pourtour du rebord de la coupelle, l'opercule est destiné à être déchiré sous le seul effet de la poussée du fluide d'extraction au début de l'extraction.The present invention relates to a closed cartridge, intended to be extracted under pressure, containing a substance for the preparation of a beverage selected from roast and ground coffee, tea, instant coffee, a mixture of ground coffee and soluble coffee, a chocolate product or any other dehydrated edible substance, comprising a cup with a bottom with a central part and a peripheral part and a side wall having substantially the shape of a truncated cone and a circular rim of greater diameter at the bottom and a lid welded on around the rim of the cup, the seal is intended to be torn under the sole effect of the thrust of the extraction fluid at the beginning of the extraction.

La cartouche hermétiquement close décrite ci-dessus est le sujet du brevet EP 512'468, au nom de la demanderesse. Cette cartouche est soumise à une extraction avec le dispositif constituant le sujet du brevet EP 512'470. Cette extraction s'effectue de la manière suivante : la cartouche est insérée dans un support de cartouche et dans une cage d'extraction. Cette cage d'extraction comprend une aiguille qui perce le fond de la coupelle et, lorsque la pression de la cartouche s'élève, l'opercule bute contre des éléments en saillie et en creux du dispositif d'extraction. Lorsque la pression atteint un certain niveau, l'opercule atteint sa tension de rupture et s'ouvre, laissant le café s'écouler dans la tasse. A la fin de l'extraction, il est possible d'enlever la cartouche du système d'extraction afin d'y placer la suivante. Lorsque ladite cartouche est enlevée, il existe un trou au fond de la coupelle et ce trou permet à l'eau résiduelle et à la mouture de café de s'échapper. Cette fuite de mouture pose un problème car elle salit une partie de la machine d'extraction.The hermetically sealed cartridge described above is the subject of EP 512,468, in the name of the applicant. This cartridge is subjected to extraction with the device constituting the subject of patent EP 512,470. This extraction is carried out as follows: the cartridge is inserted in a cartridge holder and in an extraction cage. This extraction cage comprises a needle which pierces the bottom of the cup and, when the pressure of the cartridge rises, the cap abuts against projecting and recessed elements of the extraction device. When the pressure reaches a certain level, the lid reaches its breaking tension and opens, letting the coffee flow into the cup. At the end of the extraction, it is possible to remove the cartridge from the extraction system in order to place the next one. When said cartridge is removed, there is a hole in the bottom of the cup and this hole allows residual water and coffee grounds to escape. This leak of grind poses a problem because it messes up some of the extraction machine.

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 object of the present invention is to develop a cartridge provided for the extraction cage as mentioned above and which does not lead to leakage of pomace or other solid substance at the time of the change of said cartridge.

La présente invention concerne une cartouche fermée selon la préambule de la revendication 1, comprenant dans la coupelle au niveau du fond, un moyen garantissant la rétention de substance solide lors de son ouverture, qui 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.The present invention relates to a closed cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1, comprising in the cup at the bottom, a means ensuring the retention of solid substance when it opens, which is a sheet of fabric sealed in the bottom of the cup in two zones, on the one hand in the central part and on the other hand in the peripheral part of said bottom. Sealing on the peripheral portion of the bottom may be performed over the entire periphery or only a portion of said periphery. It is to have in each cartridge a non-return system of coffee grounds or any other solid substance extracted in said cartridge.

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 an acceptable cost and on the other hand simple embodiment, allowing easy opening of the capsule by the injection points, resistant to hot water and giving good closure after extraction, that is to say at the time of release of the cartridge.

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 may be any type of fabric, woven or nonwoven made of plastic fibers, vegetable fibers or animal fibers. The fabric used is preferably fabric made of polypropylene, polyester, polyurethane, polyamide, cellulose having a thickness of between 15 and 200 microns. The fabric is heat sealed in the two aforementioned areas of 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 lid is heat sealed or crimped around the cup. This gives a cartridge resistant to pressures up to 15 bar in the extraction system.

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 and ground coffee.

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 mean as well a frustoconical element, hemispherical or truncipyramidal. 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 of a semi-rigid nature, may consist of a material chosen from aluminum having a thickness of 20 to 100 microns, a pure plastic or multi-layer, 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 Si02.The lid of the cartridge, which is of a flexible nature, can be made of a material chosen from aluminum having a thickness of 15 to 60 μm and a multi-layer comprising, either paper of 20 to 60 g / m 2, plastic with a thickness of 20 to 60 μm and aluminum with a thickness of 5 to 20 μm, ie EVOH or PVDC with a thickness of 5 to 30 μm and plastic (PP, PE or PA ) from 20 to 100 microns, ie PET (5 to 30 microns) and plastic (PP, PE) from 20 to 100 microns, PET metallized or provided with a high barrier layer such as SiO 2.

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 may be of variable size depending on the volume of coffee that it is desired 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 remainder of the 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 of FIG.

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 lid (15) a polyurethane fabric layer (16) 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 portion (17) and in the peripheral portion (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 illustrated cartridge contains 5 g of coffee, it has a diameter of 35 mm and a thickness of coffee bed of 30 mm. The sealing of the central part is made on a diameter of the order of 8 mm and that of the peripheral portion on a width of the order of 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 Figure 2 comprises a thread (2) to be screwed on the coffee machine. The housing (3) is necessary to have a seal for a good seal of the system. The channel (4) allows the arrival of water in the housing (5) of the capsule. Directly at the exit of the channel (4), there is the drilling system (6) consisting of 3 points with openings (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 it is desired to extract the cartridge of FIG. 1, it is placed in the housing (5) of the capsule cage (1). The tips (6) will notch the bottom of the cup and pierce or push the tissue between the two sealing areas (17) and (18). The interest of this fabric is that it resists piercing and the water passes through said fabric and in the case where the fabric is still pierced, at the end of the extraction its flexibility and elasticity allows it to close lorqu said tips are removed from the cartridge and the grounds do not come out through the cuts. There is thus a cartridge ensuring cleanliness of the extraction system.
