Description
Dispositivo para máquina de café expreso con monodosis de agua acoplada a la cápsula de café.Device for espresso coffee machine with single dose of water coupled to the coffee capsule.
La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo para obtener café expreso cuya novedad más importante consiste en que el agua necesaria para el mismo no procede de la red o de una botella de agua mineral, sino que se encuentra envasada en un recipiente cilíndrico aislado de la cápsula del café igualmente cilíndrica a la que se encuentra unido, siendo el agua calentada exteriormente hasta que al alcanzar la temperatura y presión adecuada mediante émbolo que las mantiene constantes pasa a la cápsula de café de tal manera que al producirse la erogación del café expreso rompe la membrana inferior de la cápsula y sale el café expresso obtenido a partir de una variedad de agua que el catador del blend ha considerado la más idónea para mantener el gusto y aromas del mismo.The present invention relates to a device for obtaining espresso coffee whose most important novelty is that the water necessary for it does not come from the network or a bottle of mineral water, but is packaged in a cylindrical container isolated from the coffee capsule also cylindrical to which it is attached, the water being heated externally until upon reaching the temperature and pressure suitable by means of a piston that keeps them constant passes to the coffee capsule in such a way that when the delivery of the espresso breaks the lower membrane of the capsule and the coffee comes out expresso obtained from a variety of water that the taster of the blend has been considered the most suitable to maintain the taste and aromas of it.
Su campo de aplicación se encuentra en la industria de la construcción de máquinas de café, singularmente en la industria de las expendedoras de café expresso mediante cápsulas y más concretamente en la industria auxiliar de dispositivos para máquinas de café expresso.Its field of application is in the coffee machine building industry, particularly in the espresso coffee vending industry using capsules and more specifically in the auxiliary device industry for espresso coffee machines.
En este sector de la técnica priman aquellos desarrollos efectivos y específicamente dedicados a la función en cuestión, que den lugar a un sistema de sencilla instalación, con bajo coste y resultados técnicamente apreciables. Las características del sistema presentado en esta invención se adaptan perfectamente a este concepto, ofreciendo al estado de la técnica una realización novedosa, simple, sencilla y de fabricación altamente económica.In this sector of the technique, those prevail effective developments and specifically dedicated to the function in question, that give rise to a system of simple installation, with Low cost and technically appreciable results. The System features presented in this invention are adapted perfectly to this concept, offering the state of the art a novel, simple, simple and manufacturing embodiment highly economical
Se conocen en este sector de la industria numerosos modelos que no aportan al estado de la técnica las características novedosas que propone la presente invención. Así, el documento ES 2055662 A1, describe un dispositivo que si bien se constituye a partir de un recipiente contenedor del agua y una tapa contenedora del extracto en polvo acoplada sobre la embocadura del mismo, es decir, a la inversa de como propone nuestra invención, sin embargo el agua del recipiente se obtiene de forma convencional y el calentamiento mediante reacción esotérmica de productos químicos que transmiten energía calorífica por convección al líquido contenido en el recipiente. También el documento W 04006178 EP, presenta como la mayoría de las máquinas de café expreso un depósito para el agua, una bomba para suministrar dicha agua a una caldera, una unidad de suministro de agua caliente y medios de soporte para alojar una porción de café molido. Otros presentan un dispositivo que incorpora el café encapsulado para preservar mejor sus características aromáticas y organolépticas.They know each other in this industry sector numerous models that do not contribute to the state of the art the novel features proposed by the present invention. Thus, the document ES 2055662 A1, describes a device that although constitutes from a container water container and a lid powder extract container coupled onto the mouth of the same, that is, the reverse of how our invention proposes, without However, the water in the container is obtained in a conventional manner and the heating by esotermic reaction of chemicals that transmit heat energy by convection to the liquid contained in the recipient. Also document W 04006178 EP, presents as the Most of the coffee machines express a water tank, a pump to supply said water to a boiler, a unit of hot water supply and support means to house a serving of ground coffee. Others have a device that incorporates encapsulated coffee to better preserve its characteristics aromatic and organoleptic.
Para facilitar la preparación del café expreso se ha creado la cápsula monodosis. Se trata de café envasado en cápsulas especialmente diseñadas, con la cantidad de café, el molido y el prensado correctos y envasado en atmósfera inerte, para asegurar la obtención de un expreso en todo momento.To facilitate the preparation of espresso coffee the single dose capsule has been created. This is coffee packed in specially designed capsules, with the amount of coffee, ground and the correct pressing and packaging in an inert atmosphere, for ensure obtaining an express at all times.
Son ventajas de la monodosis que el café está ya
tostado, molido y prensado, por tanto es fácil de usar y ahorra
tiempo, siendo la dosis la recomendada y no habiendo pérdidas de
café durante la elaboración. Es limpio e higiénico, fácil de
conservar y versátil pudiéndose usar tanto en casa como en el
trabajo o en el bar. ¿Pero está el aroma garantizado? En parte sí
por las características organolépticas inherentes al blend y en
parte no dependiendo del tipo de agua que se utilice. Y esto segundo
es la tesis que defiende la presente invención. Y es que la calidad
del agua potable puede variar de un lugar a otro, dependiendo de la
condición de la fuente del agua y del tratamiento que
recibe.Advantages of the single dose are that the coffee is already roasted, ground and pressed, therefore it is easy to use and saves time, the dose being the recommended one and there being no coffee losses during brewing. It is clean and hygienic, easy to keep and versatile and can be used both at home and at work or at the bar. But is the aroma guaranteed? Partly because of the organoleptic characteristics inherent in the blend and partly not depending on the type of water used. And this second is the thesis that defends the present invention. And it is that the quality of drinking water can vary from one place to another, depending on the condition of the water source and the treatment that
receives.
En las zonas pobladas donde el agua de ríos y lagos puede encontrarse poluida por contaminantes químicos industriales, llega incluso a ser no apta o poco recomendable para el consumo humano.In populated areas where river water and lakes can be found polluted by chemical contaminants industrial, it even becomes unfit or not recommended for human consumption
Un problema típico que presenta el agua en zonas donde podría creerse apta para consumo humano, es su dureza. La dureza en el agua viene dada principalmente por la presencia de calcio y magnesio como minerales más duros, aunque se podría extender a una lista de muchos. Aproximadamente el 75% de las reservas consideradas potables, cuentan con durezas no recomendables, que para ser combatidas son tratadas con sistemas de filtración de diversos tipos y características.A typical problem with water in areas where it could be considered fit for human consumption, is its hardness. The water hardness is mainly given by the presence of calcium and magnesium as harder minerals, although you could extend to a list of many. Approximately 75% of the reserves considered drinkable, have hardnesses not recommended, that to be fought are treated with systems of filtration of various types and characteristics.
En cuanto al tratamiento, éste puede incluir agregarle fluoruro para prevenir las caries y cloruro para matar a los gérmenes.As for the treatment, this may include add fluoride to prevent tooth decay and chloride to kill the germs
El agua mineral se obtiene generalmente de manantiales naturales y se caracteriza por su pureza original tanto química como microbiológica. Su origen subterráneo le confiere minerales, oligo-elementos y otros componentes con efectos sobre el cuerpo humano, habiendo aguas hiposódicas diuréticas, de débil o fuerte mineralización, bicarbonatadas, sulfatadas, cloruradas, cálcicas, magnésicas, ferruginosas o sódicas, cada una de ellas con características organolépticas y aromas diferentes, de sodio.Mineral water is usually obtained from natural springs and is characterized by its original purity both Chemistry as microbiological. Its underground origin gives it minerals, oligo-elements and other components with effects on the human body, having hyposodic waters diuretics, weak or strong mineralization, bicarbonated, sulfated, chlorinated, calcium, magnesium, ferruginous or sodium, each with organoleptic characteristics and different aromas of sodium.
El carácter inodoro e insípido del agua mineral es bastante relativo. De ahí que los resultados de una cata de aguas minerales revelaron claras diferencias entre las ocho muestras empleadas, tanto en apariencia (color y limpidez), como en criterios olfato-gustativos (olor, cuerpo, sabor, post-gusto). En la cata Font Vella, Bezoya y Lanjarón, ofrecieron un sabor ligero, limpio y fresco y sin defectos. En Alzóla se encontró un ligero post-gusto áspero, como de plástico. En Corconte destacó su sabor salado, quizá debido a su mayor contenido en cloruros y sodio. En Solares y Betelu señalaron los catadores también esta característica, junto con notas de post-gusto que recuerdan a amargo, químico o plástico. Por último, en Insalus destacó un post-gusto amargo, acre y persistente, quizá relacionado con su mayor contenido en sulfatos.The odorless and tasteless character of mineral water It is quite relative. Hence the results of a water tasting minerals revealed clear differences between the eight samples used, both in appearance (color and cleanness), and in criteria smell-taste (smell, body, taste, post-taste). In the tasting Font Vella, Bezoya and Lanjarón, offered a light, clean and fresh taste without defects. In Alzóla a slight post-taste was found rough, like plastic. In Corconte highlighted its salty taste, perhaps due to its higher content of chlorides and sodium. In Solar and Betelu noted the tasters also this feature, together with post-taste notes reminiscent of bitter, chemical or plastic Finally, Insalus highlighted a bitter, pungent and persistent aftertaste, perhaps related to its higher sulphate content.
Pero en el consumidor los gustos pueden decantarse hacia aguas más o menos salinas, más o menos duras, con más o menos sabor, según sean los hábitos de consumo y las preferencias de cada individuo.But in the consumer tastes can opt for more or less saline waters, more or less hard, with more or less flavor, depending on consumption habits and preferences of each individual.
Por todo ello, las máquinas conocidas en el estado de la técnica para obtener café expreso, presentan frente a la presente invención los siguientes inconvenientes:For all this, the machines known in the state of the art to obtain espresso coffee, present against The present invention the following drawbacks:
En todos los casos el agua necesaria para la cocción o erogación del café se obtiene de la red de agua o bien de agua mineral embotellada. Por ello el café expreso así obtenido presenta al ser consumido sabores y aromas que difieren según sea el agua utilizada, ya que el 98% de un café expreso es agua. Se da por consiguiente la paradoja de que un café expreso que en la cata presentaba aromas y sabores de gran valor para el catador, cuando se consume después de hacerse con un agua muy diferente a la de la cata, ofrece aromas y sabores que en poco se parecen a los originarios. Y es que el agua utilizada en la cata es sin duda alguna la más idónea para saborear y oler el café expreso cuyo blend ha sido elaborado eligiendo los granos que mejor resultado dan en la cata en la que se ha utilizado un determinado tipo de agua.In all cases the water necessary for the cooking or dispensing of coffee is obtained from the water network or from bottled mineral water Therefore the espresso coffee thus obtained presents when consumed flavors and aromas that differ according to the water used, since 98% of an espresso is water. Is given by consequently the paradox that an espresso coffee tasting presented aromas and flavors of great value to the taster, when consume after getting water very different from that of the tasting, offers aromas and flavors that in little resemble those originating And the water used in the tasting is undoubtedly some the most suitable to taste and smell the espresso coffee whose blend It has been prepared by choosing the grains that best result in the tasting in which a certain type of water has been used.
A estos inconvenientes hay que añadir que en las máquinas de café expreso conocidas, el agua utilizada bien procedente de la red o de botellas de agua mineral, discurre por conductos estrechos de difícil limpieza en los que a veces el agua queda retenida durante el tiempo en que no se utiliza la máquina. Esos circuitos por donde pasa el agua terminan con el tiempo contaminados por impurezas de difícil remoción y difícil control. También el agua queda a veces retenida en el depósito por tiempo indeterminado, existiendo el riesgo de estropearse como agua estancada. Y es que suele ser habitual que el depósito se rellene una vez en semana, mientras que tan sólo utilizamos dos café diarios.To these inconveniences we must add that in the Known espresso machines, water used well from the network or bottles of mineral water, runs through narrow ducts of difficult cleaning in which sometimes water is retained for the time the machine is not used. Those circuits where the water passes end over time contaminated by impurities that are difficult to remove and difficult to control. Also the water is sometimes retained in the tank for time undetermined, there is a risk of spoiling like water stagnant And it is usually usual for the deposit to be filled once a week, while we only use two coffee daily
Ante estos inconvenientes descritos, la presente invención aporta al estado de la técnica unas soluciones novedosas, sencillas y de fácil ejecución que dan como resultado las siguientes ventajas:Given these inconveniences described, the present The invention brings innovative solutions to the state of the art, simple and easy to execute that result in the following advantages:
- Se utiliza tan sólo una dosis de agua por cada café, siendo esa dosis la más idónea, la recomendada por los expertos, la misma agua que se utilizó en la cata, la originaria, en consecuencia el café expreso obtenido es idéntico al de la cata.- Only one dose of water is used for each coffee, that dose being the most suitable, the one recommended by experts, the same water that was used in the tasting, the original one, in Consequently, the espresso coffee obtained is identical to that of the tasting.
- El agua pasa a través de la cápsula a una temperatura constante produciéndose el calentamiento sobre la cantidad de agua existente en el recipiente donde con ayuda de un motor eléctrico es empujada por álabes y émbolo con la misma presión desde el inicio hasta el fin, al contrario de las bombas de aire que se utilizan en cafeteras convencionales de cápsulas, las cuales tienen variación de presión desde el inicio hasta el final de la erogación.- Water passes through the capsule to a constant temperature producing heating on the amount of water in the container where with the help of a electric motor is pushed by blades and plunger with the same pressure from the beginning to the end, unlike the air pumps that they are used in conventional capsule coffee machines, which they have pressure variation from the beginning to the end of the disbursement
- Se obtiene un café expreso con idénticos parámetros a los utilizados en la cata en cualquier lugar del mundo. Allí donde lo compres te estás asegurando un producto puro, no contaminado en cuanto a sabores y aromas relativos al agua.- You get an espresso with identical parameters to those used in tasting anywhere in the world. Wherever you buy it you are ensuring a pure product, no contaminated in terms of flavors and aromas related to water.
- El agua no tiene que pasar por ningún circuito, por lo que es imposible la contaminación, la pérdida de propiedades o la descomposición por estancamiento.- Water does not have to go through any circuit, so pollution is impossible, the loss of properties or decomposition due to stagnation.
- Las cápsulas son antigoteo a diferencia de los métodos conocidos, al ser el recipiente de agua hermético y tener una salida por la parte inferior, de tal manera que cuando se agota la cantidad de agua la tapa del recipiente no deja entrar aire y por ello la cantidad de agua que se queda en la cápsula de café no puede bajar por su propio peso, creando una especie de vacío entre el recipiente monodosis de agua y la cápsula del café, las cuales están herméticamente acoplados.- The capsules are anti-drip unlike those known methods, being the airtight water container and having an exit from the bottom, so that when it runs out the amount of water the lid of the container does not let air in and the amount of water left in the coffee capsule cannot lower by its own weight, creating a kind of emptiness between the single dose water container and coffee capsule, which are tightly coupled.
- El hecho que el recipiente de agua tenga una postura de trabajo vertical aprovecha mejor el paso de agua por la cápsula de café, de manera que pasa por toda la cantidad de café, alabes y omogen, los métodos existente la mayoría tienen el paso horizontal.- The fact that the water container has a vertical work posture takes better advantage of the passage of water through the coffee capsule, so that it goes through the whole amount of coffee, praise and omogen, the existing methods most have the step horizontal.
Todos estos elementos conjugados dan lugar a un resultado final en el que se aportan características diferenciadoras significativas frente al estado de la técnica actual.All these conjugated elements give rise to a final result in which differentiating characteristics are provided significant compared to the state of the art.
Así, la invención se constituye a partir de los siguientes elementos:Thus, the invention is constituted from the following elements:
Una dosis de agua herméticamente encapsulada en un recipiente cilíndrico con borde sobresaliente superior que hace de tope para su alojamiento vertical y prolongación roscada interiormente a partir de la base. Una tapa circular encaja en la embocadura del recipiente de agua haciendo de émbolo del cilindro cuando es accionado por motor. Al menos una resistencia eléctrica rodea el recipiente cilíndrico de agua. La base consta de un segmento duro y una membrana elástica central por donde pasa el agua caliente traspasando al mismo tiempo la membrana superior de la cápsula del café a la que se encuentra unida por presión ocurriendo ésto a una temperatura y presión determinadas por los medios de control. La cápsula del café es igualmente cilíndrica y presenta en la parte superior una rosca exterior a lo largo de todo el perímetro externo. El resto de la cápsula es igual a la convencional para café expreso, con su membrana antigoteo que rompe a determinada temperatura y presión dejando salir el café expreso.A tightly encapsulated water dose in a cylindrical container with upper protruding edge that makes stop for vertical housing and threaded extension inwardly from the base. A circular lid fits into the mouth of the water container making cylinder piston When it is powered by motor. At least one electrical resistor surround the cylindrical water container. The base consists of a hard segment and a central elastic membrane where the water passes hot while passing the upper membrane of the coffee capsule to which it is linked by pressure occurring this at a temperature and pressure determined by the means of control. The coffee capsule is equally cylindrical and presents in the upper part an outer thread along the entire perimeter external. The rest of the capsule is the same as conventional coffee Express, with its anti-drip membrane that breaks a certain temperature and pressure leaving the espresso coffee.
