Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sealed capsule for making a beverage.
  • the present invention relates to a sealed capsule of the type comprising a cup-shaped container for a measure of water-soluble material, and a flat cover fluidtight sealing the cup-shaped container;
  • the container comprising a tubular lateral wall with a first and a second end, an outer annular flange integral with the first end; and a bottom wall connected to the second end and comprising an annular reinforcing rib coaxial with the lateral wall, and defining, on the bottom wall, an outer annular portion and an inner circular portion;
  • the cover comprising a flat sealing wall connected in fluidtight manner to the flange.
  • Sealed capsules of the above type are known, for example from US 5242702 , AU 655184 and DE 10 2004 056317 , are commonly used, for example, in percolating machines for making beverages such as coffee, tea, chocolate, etc., to which the following description specifically refers.
  • percolation is normally performed by gripping the capsule between two half-chambers of a percolating chamber, and feeding pressurized hot water through the percolating chamber.
  • the sealing wall and bottom wall which are normally flat, are pierced substantially simultaneously by two needle piercing devices, each fitted to a respective half-chamber, to allow pressurized hot water into the capsule on one side, and outflow of the percolated beverage on the other.
  • the sealing wall - which is normally made of metal material, such as aluminium, and therefore fairly rigid - is pierced easily by the dynamic thrust of the needles
  • the bottom wall - which is normally made of thermoplastic material, and necessarily thin for it to be pierced by the needles - tends to be flexed inwards of the capsule by the needles, without being pierced, and to remain resting on the needles.
  • the bottom wall inwardly convex, as opposed to flat, so that it defines a mechanical bistable member, and is pierced after, as opposed to together with, the sealing wall when gripping the capsule.
  • the bottom wall in fact, is not pierced until it is pushed outwards by the pressurized water flowing into the capsule through the holes formed earlier through the sealing wall when gripping the capsule.
  • this solution has several drawbacks, mainly due to the convex shape of the bottom wall making the capsule more difficult, and therefore more expensive, to produce, and also reducing the space available inside the capsule for the powdered material.
  • a sealed capsule for making a beverage as claimed in the independent Claim and, preferably, in any one of the following Claims depending directly or indirectly on the independent Claim.
  • Number 1 in Figure 1 indicates as a whole a sealed capsule for making a beverage from a measure of powdered water-soluble material 2 housed inside capsule 1.
  • Capsule 1 comprises a cup-shaped container 3 made of thermoplastic material and in turn comprising a truncated-cone-shaped lateral wall 4, which has an outer annular flange 5 at its wide end, and is closed at its narrow end by a bottom wall 6 connected to lateral wall 4 by a rounded edge 7.
  • Capsule 1 also comprises a cover 8, which fluidtight seals cup-shaped container 3 and is defined by a flat sheet of metal foil, normally aluminium, the periphery of which is connected integrally to the outer surface of flange 5.
  • bottom wall 6 has an annular reinforcing rib 9, which is formed by drawing bottom wall 6, is coaxial with lateral wall 4, and defines, on bottom wall 6, an outer annular portion 10, and a uniformly thick, flat inner circular portion 11 parallel to cover 8.
  • rib 9 is in the form of a cylindrical connecting wall, which is coaxial with the lateral wall, extends between an inner periphery of annular portion 10 and an outer periphery of circular portion 11, and in height is roughly twice the thickness of bottom wall 6.
  • lateral wall 4 has a wider portion 12 connecting lateral wall 4 to the inner periphery of flange 5.
  • Flange 5 is thick enough to make it rigid, and, in the example shown, is roughly 0.6 mm thick.
  • Lateral wall 4 is thinner than flange 5, and decreases evenly in thickness from a maximum thickness close to flange 5, to a minimum thickness close to edge 7.
  • the thickness of lateral wall 4 varies from a maximum of 0.5 mm to a minimum of 0.3 mm.
  • bottom wall 6 is roughly the same as or slightly less than the minimum thickness of lateral wall 4. More specifically, circular portion 11 is of a constant thickness of about 0.3 mm.
  • lateral wall 4 is cylindrical, as opposed to truncated-cone-shaped.
  • edge 7 connecting bottom wall 6 and lateral wall 4 - be it truncated-cone-shaped or cylindrical - is a sharp edge as opposed to rounded.
  • capsule 1 is inserted, in use, into a percolating assembly 13 of a known percolating machine.
  • percolating assembly 13 comprises a pressurized-hot-water sprinkler 14 aligned along an axis 15 with a piston 16 movable to and from sprinkler 14 and having a percolated beverage outflow conduit 17.
  • sprinkler 14 comprises a substantially cylindrical body, the end of which facing piston 16 has a truncated-cone-shaped, outwardly-flared axial cavity 18 coaxial with axis 15 and for housing, in use, flange 5.
  • Sprinkler 14 comprises a piercing device 19, in turn comprising a plate fitted at the bottom of cavity 18, and a number of hollow needles 20 projecting from the plate towards piston 16, and which, in use, pierce cover 8 of capsule 1 to feed pressurized hot water into capsule 1 from an inflow conduit 21.
  • Piston 16 comprises a cylindrical end body coaxial with axis 15 and fitted on the end with a cup 22 for housing cup-shaped container 3 in use.
  • Cup 22 comprises a lateral wall defined by a number of columns extending axially towards sprinkler 14 and connected to one another by a ring 23, which is coaxial with axis 15 and, when piston 16 is gripped against sprinkler 14, presses flange 5 in fluidtight manner against the bottom surface of cavity 18.
  • Piston 16 comprises a piercing device 24 located at the bottom of cup 22 and in turn comprising a plate coaxial with axis 15, and a number of hollow needles 25 projecting from the plate towards sprinkler 14, and which, in use, piece bottom wall 6 to allow the percolated beverage to flow out of capsule 1 into outflow conduit 17.
  • piston 16 advances towards sprinkler 14, thus gradually inserting capsule 1 through ring 23 into cup 22.
  • capsule 1 is pierced substantially simultaneously by piercing device 19, whose needles 20 penetrate capsule 1 through cover 8, and by piercing device 24, whose needles 25 penetrate capsule 1 through circular portion 11 of bottom wall 6.
  • bottom wall 6 despite being made of thin, relatively flexible thermoplastic material, also performs rigidly, allows needles 25 to pierce it over the final stage in the travel of piston 16 towards sprinkler 14, and remains substantially flat when pierced, except for a slight inflection inwards of capsule 1.
  • Rib 9 in fact, provides, simply and cheaply, for reducing free inflection of bottom wall 6, so that circular portion 11 is rigid enough not to flex under the dynamic axial thrust of needles 25 when pierced, while at the same time being thin enough to be pierced easily by needles 25.
