Definitions
- the present invention relates to a capsule for the preparation of a beverage according to the preamble of claim 1.
- capsules for beverage preparation in particular for the preparation of coffee are known from the prior art.
- FIG. 1 shows the EP 1 908 706 A2 a capsule, in the interior of which an insert part is arranged, which together with the bottom of the capsule body fulfills a valve function, so that after the elimination of a fluid pressure, no more beverage can escape from the capsule.
- a post-labyrinth structure calms the beverage flow and mixes the prepared beverage.
- a capsule for the preparation of a drink to be made available which can be easily and inexpensively manufactured.
- a dripping of the capsule after completion of the preparation process should be prevented as possible or prevented altogether.
- a frothing of the drink and in the preparation of coffee crema by generating shear forces to be made possible.
- An inventive capsule for the preparation of a beverage comprises a preferably rotationally symmetrical capsule body which completely or partially limits a substance chamber for receiving at least one substance, a preferably centrally arranged outlet nozzle with an outlet opening and a lid for closing the substance chamber.
- a liquid can be introduced into the substance chamber and discharged through the outlet opening.
- a slit valve which in particular continues to open under an increasing liquid pressure in the substance chamber is arranged such that the slit valve opens directly into the outlet nozzle and in particular generates a beverage jet. Under atmospheric pressure, the slit valve is not necessarily tightly closed, at least not airtight.
- valve which in particular completely opens only under increasing fluid pressure, premature leakage of the beverage can be prevented, which in particular allows a pre-brewing of a coffee substance. Accordingly, the capsule will not only allow a dropwise dispensing of the beverage but, by design, will allow for continuous beverage dispensing.
- the valve With the design of the valve as a slit valve is achieved that with the same cross-sectional area increased shear in the drink is achieved.
- an improved crema is produced especially in the production of coffee.
- the fact that the slit valve opens directly into the outlet the delivery of the beverage is simplified. If the outlet nozzle is cylindrical and in particular has straight inner walls, the dripping time after finishing the preparation can be reduced.
- the slit valve may be part of an input-side boundary wall of the outlet nozzle.
- the entire length of the outlet nozzle can be used to calm the beverage jet.
- the drink will accordingly flow out of the capsule and can be collected in a cup.
- the slit valve can extend over the entire diameter of the outlet nozzle.
- Such a slit valve opens up further degrees of freedom with regard to the construction.
- the slit valve comprise a movable or a deflecting wall element, which is not only separated from the outlet nozzle by the slot of the slit valve, but by further constructive measures, the deflection is simplified.
- further weakening zones may be provided in the edge region of the boundary wall.
- the slit valve may be formed by mutually offset wall sections. Through such wall sections, which for example each half of the boundary wall forming, which are arranged offset, an injection molding implementation is easily possible. Thus, a slot can be formed, which can be arbitrarily thin. It is even possible to easily produce a closed valve with a predetermined breaking point. Likewise, it is possible in the injection molding production with a forced removal that the valve is necessarily open from the beginning.
- the slit valve may be configured such that it opens only when a minimum fluid pressure is reached.
- a minimum fluid pressure could for a capsule to the system "Tassimo®” greater than 0.5 bar, preferably greater than 1.0 bar, particularly preferably 1.5 bar.
- this minimum internal pressure can be between 3 and 4 bar.
- Such a valve ensures, for example, that only a beverage can escape from the capsule when it is under a pressure required for the shearing action in the valve. Accordingly, the quality of the prepared drink, especially the crema during a coffee preparation can always be kept the same.
- the slit valve can be designed to be self-closing, such that it closes automatically when there is no fluid pressure or when the fluid pressure is reduced below a predetermined pressure. For example, it is conceivable that falls below a pressure of 0.2 bar, the valve gradually closes. Thus, for example, the pressure can be continuously reduced independently of the capsule or machine system before a complete closure takes place.
- a self-closing valve causes after completion of the preparation process, the capsule no longer drips.
- the slit valve may be designed as a predetermined breaking point and sealed before an initial application of the minimum liquid pressure tight, in particular fluid-tight, preferably aroma-tight.
- Such a dense, in particular aroma-tight construction of the slit valve makes it possible that no additional membrane has to close the outlet opening and nevertheless a loss of aroma of the beverage substance can be prevented.
- the lid and the capsule body are designed accordingly, the quality of the prepared drink can be ensured even after prolonged storage of the capsule.
- the slit valve may be arranged such that the beverage jet pours transversely to an outlet direction of the outlet nozzle.
- the outlet direction extends from the slot valve to the outlet opening and is generally approximately parallel to a longitudinal axis of the outlet nozzle and / or approximately parallel to an axis of symmetry of the preferably rotationally symmetrical capsule body.
- a beverage jet which pours transversely to the outlet direction in the outlet support, will bounce against a side wall of the outlet nozzle, so that on the one hand its flow velocity is reduced and on the other hand, a mixing of the beverage is favored with air.
- an air inlet opening connected to an air supply duct can be arranged such that the beverage jet can be conducted past the air inlet opening.
- Such a construction is used for example in the EP 1 440 910 A1 disclosed.
- air can be entrained, which then mixes with the beverage jet. Accordingly, an airy liquid need not already be formed in the capsule from the beverage substance to produce a foamed beverage, for example. With a subsequent addition of air in the drink, the proportion of air can be increased.
- the air inlet opening may be arranged and / or configured such that under normal use of the capsule by gravity no drink can enter the air inlet opening. Accordingly, a machine for preparing the drink is prevented from being accidentally contaminated by a beverage exiting through the air inlet port and the air inlet channel of the capsule.
- this air inlet opening is dimensioned so small that due to the viscosity the prepared drink this can not get through the air inlet opening.
- the air inlet opening can be arranged laterally or in the direction of gravity above the beverage jet formed by the nozzle.
- this lateral or above the beverage jet opening arranged leakage of the drink under gravity is prevented even with a larger air inlet opening. Accordingly, however, the machine for preparing the drink must also be taken into consideration, since this machine determines the orientation of the capsule when used as intended.
- the outlet can have two, three or more air inlet openings. It has been shown that more air can be introduced into the beverage through a plurality of air inlet openings. Accordingly, more or less foamed depending on the drink.
- the valve and the air inlet opening may be formed such that when the valve is opened, a venturi nozzle is formed.
- a venturi nozzle By forming the valve as a venturi nozzle, the entrained air or the air introduced into the beverage can be accurately determined.
- the term venturi nozzle is understood to mean any arrangement whose entrainment of air is based on the Venturi effect or Bernoulli's law. It is also conceivable that the capsule only has a Venturi nozzle and is dispensed with the valve. This Venturi nozzle may be located in place of the slit valve and inject the beverage directly into the spout.
- the air supply channel or portions thereof may be due to an interaction of the capsule body with one on the capsule body be formed attached plug.
- Such a two-part construction of the capsule allows additional degrees of freedom and in particular simplifies a cost-effective production of the capsule.
- the plug can be attached from the outside to the capsule body.
- This construction allows further degrees of freedom in the construction of the capsule.
- an additional part is used in the capsule body, which includes the outlet nozzle.
- a construction is advantageous in which an additional part is mounted on the side opposite the lid to the capsule body. Accordingly, the tolerance chain on the side of the lid is not affected.
- the capsule body and the outlet nozzle may be integrally formed.
- integrally forming the capsule body and outlet nozzle tolerances can be kept very simple, which are needed for example for closing the capsule through the lid. Accordingly, the capsule can be produced inexpensively.
- the outlet nozzle is a separate component which cooperates with the capsule body and is attached to the capsule body.
- a filter In front of the slit valve, a filter may be arranged.
- a filter ensures that no undissolved beverage substance particles are flushed to and / or into the valve and clog it. A correct function of the valve is thus ensured.
- the outlet with its outlet opening can be closed by the lid.
- a simultaneous closure of the capsule and the outlet opening increases the hygiene of the capsule. When stored, foreign substances that could contaminate a prepared drink or the machine to prepare the drink can not get into the spout.
- the cover may also have a recess in the region of the outlet opening. This is particularly useful in a flavor-tight design of the slit valve. Also in a two-piece construction of capsule body and outlet nozzle tolerance problems can be avoided if the lid does not have to close the capsule body and the spout.
- the capsule body and possibly also the outlet nozzle and / or the plug and / or the insert part can be manufactured by an injection molding or deep-drawing process.
- the use of an injection molding process provides great flexibility with regard to the design of the shape of the capsule body and / or the outlet nozzle and / or the plug and / or the insert part. Although this is limited in a deep drawing process, but it is thus possible to produce especially oxygen and / or aroma-dense capsules. However, oxygen and / or aroma resistance is not limited to deep-drawn capsules.
- the capsule is formed oxygen-tight, penetration of oxygen into the capsule during storage of a substance contained therein is substantially avoided. As a result, aging of the substance, for example of coffee powder, can be avoided by oxidation.
- An oxygen-tight capsule is usually also aroma-tight. Accordingly, a leakage of in The substance contained flavor substance during storage thereof within the capsule substantially prevented. Oxygen or aroma resistance is required in order to achieve a minimum shelf life of 12 months, preferably 18 months, especially in the case of coffee.
- an oxygen- and / or aroma-tight capsule is understood as meaning a capsule in which coffee powder can be stored at atmospheric temperature at room temperature for at least 12 months, preferably 18 months, without the coffee powder changing which impairs the quality of a coffee beverage made therefrom.
- the film material used for this purpose can have an OTR (Oxygen Transmission Rate) of less than 5, preferably less than 2.
- OTR Oxygen Transmission Rate
- the OTR indicates the amount of oxygen diffused per unit of area and time through a film, in the unit: cm3 / m2 / day / 0.21 bar.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a first embodiment of a capsule according to the invention 1 with a capsule body 2 and a lifted off from the capsule body 2 and to be connected with this stopper 9.
- the capsule 1 is aligned so as it comes in beticianefflessen use. Accordingly, a lid 8 (see FIG. 2 ) is arranged on the underside of the capsule 1.
- the capsule body 2 has on the visible upper side in a central region a receptacle in which the plug 9 can be introduced. In normal use, the plug 9 is firmly connected to the capsule body 2, for example, glued, welded or snapped.
- the capsule body 2 has passage openings 16 which allow a beverage formed in the capsule 1 to pass through to the stopper 9.
- the plug 9 has on its lower side in the illustration shown a filter 15, which is formed by a plurality of slots.
- the actual filter function only comes into force when the plug 9 is inserted in the capsule body 2, the beverage is in a space between the capsule body 2 and plug 9 and is passed through the slots of the filter 15.
- FIG. 2 is a cross section through the composite capsule 1 of the FIG. 1 displayed.
- the capsule body 2 in which the plug 9 is inserted from above in the illustrated figure, can be seen.
- the plug 9 closes off the capsule body 2 on the upper side, which is at the top in the illustration shown and in the intended use.
- the capsule body 2 forms a substance chamber 3, in which a substance 4 for preparing the drink is present.
- the capsule 1 and the capsule body 2 is closed on the lower side by a cover 8.
- This lid 8 closes not only the substance chamber 3 but also an air supply channel 7 and an outlet connection 5 with its outlet opening 6.
- the air supply channel 7 is arranged coaxially to the outlet connection 5.
- the spout 5 is completed on the opposite side of the outlet opening 6 by a boundary wall 12. Furthermore, the slots in the additional part 9 can be seen, which form the filter 15.
- FIGS. 3a to 3c is in each case a perspective view of a cut-open capsule according to FIG. 1 shown.
- the section runs transversely to the section of Figure 2.
- the function of the capsule is explained.
- the capsule body 2 forms a substance chamber 3, which receives the substance required for the production of the beverage.
- the outlet nozzle 5 is arranged with its outlet opening 6. Coaxially around this outlet connection 5, the air supply channel 7 is provided.
- the lid 8 (see FIG. 2 ), which closes the capsule 1.
- the capsule 1 When used as intended, the capsule 1 is pierced from below, ie through the lid, so that a liquid is injected into the capsule or into the substance chamber 3.
- the beverage will fill the entire substance chamber 3 after a short time and pass through the passage openings 16 in a gap 17 between the capsule body 2 and plug 9.
- the beverage will flow down there and through the filter 15 (see FIG. 3b ) get into a collecting space 13 above the outlet connection 5.
- the collecting space 13 is separated by a boundary wall 12 from the outlet connection 5.
- This boundary wall 12 is formed by two wall sections 20, 21, which are arranged offset from one another. Between these two wall sections 20, 21, a slit valve 14 is formed.
- the slit valve 14 opens under pressure of the adjacent beverage and allows the outflow of a liquid jet into the outlet nozzle 5.
- this slit valve 14 causes an admission of the beverage with shearing forces to produce a crema during coffee making or to condition any air bubbles contained in the beverage.
- the beverage After passage of the beverage from the substance chamber 3 through the passage openings 16 in a gap 17 between the plug 9 and capsule body 2, the beverage is forced downwards due to the internal pressure.
- the beverage must press the filter 15, which is formed from the slots of the plug 9 in cooperation with the capsule body 2.
- the drink is filtered.
- a filter cake When using, for example, coffee powder as a beverage substance, a filter cake will form in the intermediate space from the entrained substance particles, which favors the filtration.
- the filtered beverage passes into a collecting space 13 above the outlet nozzle 5. This collecting space is separated by a boundary wall 12 and a slot valve 14 disposed therein from the outlet nozzle 5 and the outlet opening 6.
- the slit valve 14 opens only when within the capsule a minimum internal pressure of 0.5 bar is applied.
- the slit valve 14 will open, ie the slot of the slit valve 14 is pressed by the pressure and a beverage jet is formed.
- this internal pressure is dependent on the capsule system and can be adjusted during production of the capsule.
- This beverage jet is injected into the outlet pipe 5, the drink can pass unhindered to the outlet opening 6.
- the drink is loaded with shear forces. Air contained in the beverage is thus formed into fine air bubbles, which are carried along in the beverage jet.
- a crema is produced, which forms as a fine foam, for example in a cup on the prepared coffee.
- the slit valve 14 extends over the entire diameter of the outlet connection piece 5.
- the slit accordingly extends over the entire boundary wall 12.
- the slit is formed by two mutually offset wall sections 20, 21, wherein the one wall section 21 comprises a partition wall 19 of the air supply channel 7.
- the other partition wall 20 is made comparatively thin, so that it can deform under the applied fluid pressure to increase the slot of the slit valve 14 accordingly.
- the partition wall 20 has a thickness between 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm, so that it can be correspondingly easily deformed by an applied fluid pressure. Of course, this thickness is adjustable depending on the material used and the required internal pressure.
- the slit valve 14 is designed so that the resulting beverage jet is guided past an air inlet opening 11, that is injected transversely to an outlet direction 10 of the boundary wall 12 to the outlet opening 6 in the outlet nozzle 5 and bounces against the side wall of the outlet nozzle 5.
- This air inlet opening 11 is connected to the air supply channel 7, which is arranged coaxially to the outlet nozzle 5.
- the beverage jet tears when passing under the air inlet opening 11 by the suction effect with air and mixes with this air.
- An air-foamed beverage is formed, which leaves the capsule through the outlet opening 6.
- additional foaming is often desired to produce, for example, a cappuccino or a latte macchiato.
- a fine foam in the form of a crema is desirable.
- the introduction of the liquid into the substance chamber 3 prevented, the internal pressure in the capsule will subside and falls below a pressure of 0.2 bar closes the slit valve 14 again. It can thus no longer get a drink in the outlet pipe 5, a dripping will be completed after a short time.
- the said pressure is again dependent on the capsule system and adjustable in the manufacture of the capsule.
- FIG. 4 shows a perspective view from above of a central region of the capsule body 2 from the FIG. 1 , This central area is designed as a depression in the capsule body, as in the FIG. 1 can be seen. Clearly visible are the passage openings 16 through which the beverage in the gap 17 (see FIGS. 3a and 3b ). In the bottom region of this depression ribs 18 are arranged in a circle, which the support of the plug 9 to be used (see FIG. 1 ) serve. Also in the bottom area are two partial areas with two wall sections 20, 21 can be seen, which together a boundary wall 12 to the outlet connection 5 (see FIGS. 3a to 3c ) form. A first portion with the wall portion 20 represents the collection space 13, which collects the prepared beverage before passing through the slit valve 14.
- the second portion with wall portion 21 is separated by a partition 19 of the ribs 18 and the plenum 13.
- This partition 19 is tightly connected to the plug 9.
- the thus separated area has access to the air supply channel 7 and three air inlet openings 11, which open into the outlet connection.
- This separated section allows air to be entrained by the beverage jet in the outlet nozzle.
- the arrangement of the air inlet openings 11 is prevented that under gravity effect, the beverage from the outlet nozzle 5 in the air inlet openings 11 and the air inlet channel 7 can pass.
- the beverage collects after passing through the through holes 16 and the filter 15 (both see FIGS. 3a and 3b ) in the collection chamber 13.
- the slit valve 14 is closed in its rest position, the slot is visible only as a hairline crack. Accordingly, no opening is present, but the plastic is already separated at the location of the slit valve 14 by the hairline crack.
- the slit valve 14 opens by bending the wall section 20 of the collecting chamber 13 downwards.
- the existing slot of the slit valve 14 is correspondingly larger until an equilibrium between the restoring force of the wall portion 20 of the collecting space 13 and the force resulting from the internal pressure of the capsule is established.
- the drink exits and enters the outlet connection 5 (see FIGS. 3a to 3c ).
- the wall portion 20 of the plenum 13 due to its elasticity back again and the gap of the slit valve 14 is again narrowed.
- the slit valve 14 is closed. Further leakage of drink from the capsule is prevented.
- the slit valve 14 may be completely closed prior to initial opening.
- a predetermined breaking point may be provided, which, however, allows opening under pressure.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 a further embodiment of a capsule according to the invention is shown in fragmentary form.
- these represent an enlarged perspective view obliquely from below on a central region of the capsule and a perspective view from above of the recessed central region of the capsule body, similar to the FIGS. 3b and 4 , Accordingly, only the differences are pointed out.
- the reference numbers are enclosed.
- the collecting space 13 is formed as a recessed channel.
- the slit valve 14 is located at the end of the channel adjacent to the partition 19 and is open. With increased internal pressure, the wall portion 20 of the boundary wall 12 of the plug 2 can bend, so that the opening of the nozzle 12 increases. Again, there is a balance between internal pressure and restoring force.
- the valve 14 could also be designed as a closed slot, which opens only under pressure.
- the jet of the beverage is not formed by a wide slot over the entire diameter of the outlet nozzle 5 but through the slot in the channel of the collecting space 13. Accordingly, it makes no sense to provide multiple air inlet openings to the outlet nozzle 5, it exists in this embodiment only one air inlet opening 11.
- FIG. 7 shows a perspective view obliquely from above of a cut-open capsule according to the invention 1 in a further embodiment.
- the reference numerals are again used in analogy to the preceding figures.
- a capsule body 2 is closed by a lid.
- an insert member 22 is introduced, in which the outlet nozzle 5 are formed with its outlet opening 6 and the slit valve 14.
- the insert 22 has on his the Outlet 5 opposite side to a surface with ribs 18, on which a filter layer is arranged.
- the filter layer is not shown.
- the insert 22 has at the edge spoke 23, with which it is supported on a stepped edge in the capsule body 2.
- the capsule body 2 forms a substance chamber 3. In the beverage preparation, a liquid is injected into the capsule 1.
- This liquid enters the substance chamber 3, so that there can form the drink. Under an increasing pressure of the beverage, this is pressed through the filter layer (not shown) consisting of a perforated foil and / or a filter fleece and collects in a collecting space 13 above the outlet nozzle 5.
- the collecting space 13 is in turn by a boundary wall 12 with two wall portions 20th , 21 separated from the outlet 5.
- the two wall sections 20, 21 are offset from each other and form a slit valve 14, which opens under the applied fluid pressure.
- the liquid jet is injected through the arrangement of the slit valve 14 transversely to an outlet direction 10 which extends approximately parallel to the side wall of the outlet nozzle 5 in the direction of the boundary wall 12 to the outlet opening 6, in the outlet nozzle 5.
- an air inlet opening which is connected to an air supply passage coaxially extending around the outlet connection 5.
- such a construction can be easily realized as already described in the preceding embodiments.
- FIG. 8 a cross-section through a further embodiment of a capsule 1 according to the invention is shown.
- This capsule 1 is formed by a capsule body 2, which is closed by a lid (not shown).
- an outlet connection 5 is arranged with an outlet opening 6.
- An outlet direction 10 extends
- the capsule body 2 has a substance chamber 3, in which the substance for producing the beverage is arranged.
- a filter 15 is arranged, which prevents leakage of undissolved substance particles from the capsule 1.
- a collecting space 13 which collects the prepared beverage in an area above the outlet 5.
- This collecting space 13 is separated by a boundary wall 12, comprising two staggered wall sections 20, 21.
- the two wall sections 20, 21 in turn form a slit valve 14, which opens in a similar manner, as already described for the other embodiments, under pressure.
- an air inlet opening could also be integrated in this embodiment.
