Definitions

  • This specification relates to containers and in particular to a container, such as a single serve capsule, having a portion that is removable from the remainder of the container.
  • Single serve capsules for use in machines for preparing beverages or other products are becoming increasingly popular.
  • Such capsules come in a variety of formats for producing products such as espresso coffee, drip coffee, tea or hot chocolate.
  • Multi chamber capsules such as drip coffee capsules, have a first chamber defined by a filter (typically a paper filter) that is loosely packed with ingredients (such as ground coffee) and a second chamber downstream of the first chamber that defines an empty space for receiving a prepared product that flows through the filter prior to dispensing into a cup.
  • a filter typically a paper filter
  • ingredients such as ground coffee
  • a second chamber downstream of the first chamber that defines an empty space for receiving a prepared product that flows through the filter prior to dispensing into a cup.
  • Keurig K-CupTM capsule is the Keurig K-CupTM capsule. This capsule includes a paper filter having a side wall that is sealed to an inside peripheral edge of the capsule.
  • the portion containing the precursor ingredients (such as coffee grounds) cannot be easily separated from the plastic outer shell.
  • the used capsules must be disposed into garbage destined for landfill.
  • containers having a removable portion are also well known.
  • Such containers typically include a component that is adapted to be manipulated by a user to facilitate removal of the desired portion of the container.
  • a problem with such containers is that the component tends to add complexity and cost to the manufacturing and packaging of the container.
  • Another problem with such containers is that they are not adapted to include a filter element that is removable.

  • Body 12 further includes a flange 28 that extends around the perimeter of opening 26.
  • side wall 20, end wall 22 and flange 26 are all integrally formed, such as by thermoforming, from one sheet of material.
  • Container 10 preferably is symmetrical with an annular flange 28 having a uniform width W. Most preferably, container 10 has a circular cross section in order that it does not require orientation during manufacture or during use (in cases where container is used in a machine for preparing beverages or other products).
  • Cover 18 includes at least one tab 30 that is adapted to provide a grip for cover 18 to be peeled from body 12 following use of container 10 in a machine for preparing products, such as beverages, from containers 10.
