- the lower protecting member 60 is accommodated at least partially within the recess 48 obtained in the bottom 36 of the outer receptacle 18, for example rested on the ribs 46, where provided.
- the lower protecting member 60 has a lower cross size than the cross size of the outer receptacle 18. In this case, it is advantageously centrally arranged relative to the outer receptacle 18.
- the outer receptacle 18 by being oxygen- impermeable, ensures the fragrance and the preservation of the ingredient contained therein, particularly the powdered coffee.
- the cartridge can be either manually or automatically introduced inside a infusion chamber of the apparatus for making the beverage.
- the closure membrane 34 and the bottom 36 of the outer receptacle are pierced, for example by means of drill punches or opened otherwise, preferably at the protecting members, when provided.
- the cartridge is subjected to a pressing action exerted by a semi-elastic member, such as to create a sealing between a lowered plane of the edge 42 and the lower peripheral wall 47 of the outer receptacle 18.
- the semi- elastic member acts at a particularly resistant portion at the side wall of the outer receptacle.
- the cartridge is first pierced at the bottom 36 and subsequently at the closure membrane 34, for example by- means of respective drill punches.
- the punch piercing the closure membrane 34 consists of, for example, a nozzle through which hot pressurized water is supplied into the cartridge. The water flows through the inner receptacle, which is permeable thereto, and after it has soaked the layer of compacted powder, the beverage flows out through the opening provided in the bottom 36 of the outer receptacle 18.
- the inner receptacle is pierced in the vicinity thereof, in order to avoid being damaged by the punch.
- the upper protecting member is a sheet or film, as described above, this sheet has a greater resistance than the inner receptacle, such as to resist the piercing effect of the upper punch when it pierces the closure membrane 34.
- the upper protecting member which is preferably made of a permeable material, is flexed under the action of the upper punch without being pierced.
- the provision of an upper protecting member made in the form, of a sheet or film allows avoiding the formation of a chamber, thus facilitating the manufacturing process.
- the inner receptacle 12 can be separated from the outer receptacle 18 both in a manual and automatic manner.
- the arrangement of the edge 28 of the inner receptacle at an area not involved with welding/gluing between the edge 40 of the outer receptacle 18 and the closure membrane 34 maintains both receptacles structurally distinct from each other thus allowing the same to be separated after the closure membrane 34 has been removed, for example by means of the tab 35, when provided.
- the outer receptacle 18, and particularly the first member 32 due to the manufacturing mode, shape and size thereof, ensures support and reinforcement to the inner receptacle 12, both during the packaging and transportation steps, and during the beverage preparation cycle. Furthermore, by selecting an oxygen-impermeable material, the fragrance and preservation of the powdered ingredient can be ensured.
- the two receptacles follow different manufacturing processes that are suitable to meet the specific requirements for which they have been conceived.
- the two receptacles are assembled with the final closure of the outer receptacle
- the present invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a cartridge for powdered coffee or the like, which is suitable to be used " in apparatus for making beverages such as coffee or the like, and described above.
- the aforesaid method comprises the steps of: [0056] . manufacturing the closed inner receptacle 12 from a water- and oxygen-permeable material, which receptacle defines the housing cavity 14 for the powdered coffee 16, in which the coffee is pressed before closing the inner receptacle 12 , [0057] . inserting the inner receptacle 12 within the outer receptacle 18, being the containment and reinforcement element of the inner receptacle 12, before closing the outer receptacle 18 thereby making the latter impermeable to water and oxygen. [0058] .
- the outer receptacle 18 is closed by means of the annular welding portion 42 between the closure membrane 34 and the edge 40 of the outer receptacle 18 and that the edge 28 of the inner receptacle 12 is at least partially rested on the edge 40 of the outer receptacle 18 in an inner portion relative to the welding annular portion 42.
- edge 28 of the inner receptacle 12 is at least partially rested to the edge 40 of the outer receptacle 18 and that the closure membrane 34 is welded or glued to the edge 40 of the outer receptacle 18 without involving the edge 28 of the inner receptacle 12.
- the edge 28 of the inner receptacle 18 only rests at the annular groove 44 of the edge 40.
- the remaining part of the edge 40 is welded to the closure membrane 34, for example by means of the annular welding portion 42.
- the cartridge according to the present invention is suitable to be used both in completely automated apparatus and in manually loaded apparatus .
- the provision of the outer receptacle ensures the fragrance and preservation of the powdered ingredient, performs a structural function of support and stiffening both during the packaging and transportation steps and when the beverage is being made.
- the provision of the inner receptacle facilitates both the production, in that it is made and closed independently of the outer receptacle, and the beverage preparation step, thereby defining an optimum water impregnation path and allowing pressing the powdered ingredient. Furthermore, it allows separate recycling as it is structurally independent of the outer receptacle and neither being glued/welded thereto, nor otherwise connected in a permanent manner.
- a further advantage of the cartridge according to the invention is the unusual structural simplicity of the latter, which allows the latter to be manufactured at a very low cost .
- [0065] It should be understood that variations and/or additions may be provided to what has been described and illustrated above.
- the cartridge can be made such as to be pierced on the one side thereof and to be opened due to the inner pressure increase on the other side, thereby avoiding the provision of the corresponding drill punch.
- the side opening due to pressure can advantageously have weakening points in which the thickness of the material is reduced.
- the closure membrane 34 is pierced by the upper drill punch which introduces pressurized hot water within the cartridge. Due to the pressure increase inside the cartridge, the bottom 36 is opened, for example, at the weakening points, when provided.
