Definitions

  • the drawback of this shape is that , when the machine is working, the hot water pressure coming out of the filter in contact with the head distributes and penetrates into the wrapping in a non homogeneous manner, as it tends to "slide" along the convexity jeopardizing in such a way the quality of the resulting drink.
  • a further drawback is determined by the fact that , in order to brew the best possible product, the tablets need to be preferably positioned with a given side facing the distributor and with a given orientation with respect to the filter holder. In the tablets on the market , these preferential positions are generally shown on the wrapping surface with small colored signs that , in most cases , consumers find it hard to see and understand. Description of the invention
  • the subject matter of this invention is a tablet that does away with aforementioned drawbacks.
  • the upper side of the tablet that faces the filter is flat, to ensure a homogeneous diffusion of the water supply.
  • the pod features an indentation having the shaper deemed most suitable, that matches a corresponding projection in the pod holder , so that the proper positioning of the pod in the pod holder may be determined at once, thanks also to the flat side of the tablet referred to above.
  • Figure 1 shows a bird's eye view of the lower pod face
  • Figure 2 shows a bird's eye view of the upper pod face
  • Figure 3 shows a side view of the pod
  • Figure from 5 to 7 show a bird's eye view of the lower face of the pod with the notches , ranging from one to three in number, positioned just on the edge of the pod. Description of a preferred realization
  • the pod is made up by a container in filter paper or other suitable materials , shaped like a tabled, with product , for instance coffee, placed in the central part (3) and the perimeter or edge (4) used to weld together the two faces of container with the products inside ; the edge (4) features in the preferred realization of the invention , a small tongue (5) that makes is easier to remove the pod from the pod holder after having made the hot-drink.
  • the upper face (8) of the pod has a perfectly flat surface that , after the pod has been placed on the pod holder and the pod holder has been placed in the special housing of the machine, is in close contact with the filter that is integral with the head fed with hot water under pressure by means of a pump and through which the water, passing into the pod, allows the realization of the beverage.
  • the face of the filter in contact with the pod has a flat surface that matches to perfection the flat surface of the pod and the filter allows the passage and the homogeneous distribution of the water from the face (6) of the pod to its interior and , therefore , to the products it contains ; the beverage filters through the concave lower face (7) , collects in the filter -holder and comes out of the special nozzle of the machine.
  • the pod with the flat upper face (6) is associated to the presence of a notch (8) that may have any preferred shape and size; the notch (8) matches a projections having the same shape and size present in the pod -holder , creating a male and female junction that makes the proper positioning of the pod in the pod holder both immediate and instinctive.
  • the notch involves in addition to the edge (4) even a small portion of the pod containing the product, the notch may be limited merely to the edge , as shown in figures 4,5,6 and 7.
  • the notch may have any preferred shape and size. It is also evident that the proposed solutions may be adopted independently one of the other pod with just the notch.
