Definitions

  • This invention relates to a capsule for infusion products, such as, coffee, tea, chamomile, milk, etc.
  • infusion of the above mentioned products can be accomplished automatically in machines equipped with a percolation chamber that accommodates a rigid capsule, normally made of a plastic material, which is in turn placed in a flow of hot water which soaks and mixes with the product inside the capsule forming an infusion which flows out through a dispensing pipe located at the bottom of the percolation chamber.
  • a percolation chamber that accommodates a rigid capsule, normally made of a plastic material, which is in turn placed in a flow of hot water which soaks and mixes with the product inside the capsule forming an infusion which flows out through a dispensing pipe located at the bottom of the percolation chamber.
  • the percolation chamber is a unit forming part of the machine and is provided with a housing for accommodating the capsule.
  • the housing is open at the bottom, giving onto the dispensing duct, and has at least one opening through which the water feeds out after flowing into the upper part of the capsule.
  • Capsules currently available on the market come in several different kinds in terms of outer shape (cylindrical, truncated-cone shaped), but the top and bottom surfaces of all them (with reference to their position in the percolation chamber) have perforated filtering walls so that the water can flow in on one side and the infused product can flow out on the other side.
  • the percolation chamber has a flat bottom wall which, in use, is positioned face to face with the bottom filtering wall of the capsule.
  • the bottom wall of the capsule may have a completely flat surface or it may have a ring-shaped lip (round the outer circumference of the surface) for abutting against the bottom wall and part of the circular outer wall of the percolation chamber.
  • Document EP 1 961 676 discloses a rigid capsule for coffee having a container in plastic closed at the top with an upper surface and at the bottom with a lower surface.
  • the lower surface has a first lower internal annular edge which rises perpendicularly from the lower surface and a second lower external annular edge which rises perpendicularly from the lower surface and is arranged coaxially and externally with respect to the first lower edge, and whose height is lower than the first lower edge.
  • Such capsule has a lower ring and means, internal to the capsule, for temporarily prevent the formed beverage to flow out the capsule until a sufficient pressure is reached within the capsule.
  • Such means are apt to deform to open a passage for allowing water to flow out from the capsule.
  • the aim of this invention is to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks by providing a capsule for infusion products made in such a way as to allow effective infusion of the product while at the same time maintaining a simple and rational structure.
  • this aim is achieved by a capsule, in particular, a capsule comprising the technical features described in one or more of the annexed claims.
  • the capsule according to this invention labelled 1 as a whole, is used for infusion products (such as coffee, tea, chamomile, milk, etc.) in automatic machines for dispensing these products.
  • infusion products such as coffee, tea, chamomile, milk, etc.
  • the capsule 1 essentially comprises the shape of a cylinder, of defined diameter D1, a perforated / filtering fluid (water) inlet wall 3 and a perforated / filtering infusion product outlet wall 4.
  • the infusion product outlet wall 4 of the capsule 1 is divided into two separate zones 6 and 7 by a single ring 5 of diameter D5, smaller than the diameter D1 of the capsule 1 and protruding perpendicularly from the outlet wall 4 itself:
  • the first zone 6 is a flat, outer annular surface and is closed, while the second, central zone 7, is the one through which the product flows out (that is, the perforated / filtering part).
  • the bottom end of the single ring 5, in cross section, is tapered in such a way that the thickness of the single ring 5 is reduced at an angle ⁇ towards the outside of the capsule 1 relative to its central axis X (see also Figure 3 ).
  • Figure 1 shows how, in cross section, the zone of connection between the annular surface 6 and the single ring 5 forms a right angle.
  • a capsule made in this way thus achieves the above mentioned aims thanks to the special structure of its lower part.
