Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un nouveau produit alimentaire conditionné et son procédé de préparation rapide et commode en portions de mets chaud à base d'aliments séchés et facilement réhydratables, notamment précuits, atomisés ou lyophilisés. The invention relates to a new packaged food product and its process for the rapid and convenient preparation of portions of hot food based on dried and easily rehydratable foods, in particular precooked, atomized or lyophilized.
Le produit de l'invention et son procédé d'utilisation parmettent la préparation de portions de mets chauds très variées par le choix d'ingrédients réhydratables associés à des compositions aromatiques ou des garnitures. The product of the invention and its method of use include the preparation of very varied portions of hot food by the choice of rehydratable ingredients associated with aromatic compositions or garnishes.
Il s'agit notamment de mets chauds tels que pâtes alimentaires garnies, omelettes, soupes, desserts et boissons.These include hot items such as garnished pasta, omelets, soups, desserts and drinks.
Le procédé de l'invention est mis en oeuvre par une machine concernant plus particulièrement la vente de mets chauds par distribution automatique. Il s'agit d'une cuisine automatique et autonome commandée par le consommateur qui dépose, pour l'actionner, des pièces de monnaie, ou des jetons, après avoir sélectionné le mets désiré. The method of the invention is implemented by a machine relating more particularly to the sale of hot food by automatic distribution. It is an automatic and autonomous kitchen controlled by the consumer who deposits, to activate it, coins or tokens, after selecting the desired dish.
Peu de tentatives ont été faites pour proposer des produits alimentaires conditionnés spécifiquement adaptés à des procédés de préparation automatique de mets chauds par portion. Few attempts have been made to offer packaged food products specifically suited to automatic hot food preparation processes per serving.
On connaft des techniques où un certain nombre de mets préconditionnés dans des emballages étanches peuvent être délivrés après avoir été chauffés par un four électronique à micro-ondes. Techniques are known in which a certain number of dishes preconditioned in sealed packages can be delivered after having been heated by an electronic microwave oven.
Le fait de préparer les compositions à l'avance avec les assaisonnements, les graisses, les sauces, rend nécessaire leur stérilisation et leur surgélation. Or il est bien connu des techniciens du chauffage par microondes qu'il est impossible d'assurer une décongélation correcte et rapide d'un aliment surgelé à l'aide d'un four à micro-ondes. Ces compositions sont donc nécessairement conservées à quelques degrés au-dessus du zéro, ce qui entraîne des conditions peu sûres sur le plan sanitaire, pour le stockage en distributeur automatique. The fact of preparing the compositions in advance with the seasonings, the fats, the sauces, makes it necessary to sterilize them and to freeze them. However, it is well known to microwave heating technicians that it is impossible to ensure correct and rapid thawing of a frozen food using a microwave oven. These compositions are therefore necessarily stored a few degrees above zero, which results in unsafe conditions from a health standpoint, for storage in an automatic dispenser.
D'autres techniques permettent la distribution d'aliments facilement réhydratables. Le dosage des aliments séchés et de l'eau chaude étant effectué par une machine distriburice, semblable aux machines très répan dues qui délivrent boissons froides ou chaudes. Other techniques allow the distribution of easily rehydratable foods. The dosage of dried food and hot water is carried out by a vending machine, similar to very widespread machines which deliver cold or hot drinks.
Bien adaptes à la préparation des boissons, ces techniques conviennent mal au dosage et à la distribution d'ingrédients solides de granulométrie plus importante que celle des poudres La conservation de ces ingédients dans les trémies de distributeur automatique est d6licate sur le plan nicro biologique et prganoleptique. Well suited to the preparation of beverages, these techniques are ill-suited to the dosing and distribution of solid ingredients with a larger particle size than that of powders. The conservation of these ingredients in the hopper of automatic dispensers is delicate on the micro biological and prganoleptic level. .
La préparation des portions chaudes en récipient ouvert entraîne le dégagement d'odeurs et de vapeurs particulièrement désagréables sur le lieu d'implantation d'un distributeur automatique. De plus la complexité des machines mettant en oeuvre ces techniques nécessite une main-d'oeuvre de maintenance importante et spécialisée. Enfin la nécessité évidente, pour ces machines d'être en état parmanent de fonctionnement, nécessite un chauffage contigus des moyens de distribution d'eau chaude La distribution d'eau chaude est donc fréquamment la cause d'incidents dus à l'entartrage et au# fuites. The preparation of hot portions in an open container results in the release of particularly unpleasant odors and vapors at the location of an automatic dispenser. In addition, the complexity of the machines implementing these techniques requires a large and specialized maintenance workforce. Finally, the obvious need for these machines to be in a functioning state of operation requires contiguous heating of the hot water distribution means. The distribution of hot water is therefore frequently the cause of incidents due to scaling and # leaks.
On connait par ailleurs un certain nombre de produits alimentaires conditionnés qui permettent la préparation rapide de mets chauds en portions, obtenue par réhydratation rapide d'aliments séchés. Ces produits se présentent sous une forme conditionnée facilitant la réhydratation et la consommation directe. We also know a certain number of packaged food products which allow the rapid preparation of hot dishes in portions, obtained by rapid rehydration of dried foods. These products come in a packaged form facilitating rehydration and direct consumption.
Sous une forme simples, les ingrédients facilement réhydratables occupent un récipient ou une pochette hermétiquement fermé. Sous une forme plus élaborée, les ingrédients séchés occupent des compartiments séparés réunis dans un emballage hermétique unique. Cette seconde présentation facilite la préparation et le mélange. Toutefois ces produits impliquent une préparation manuelle, notamment pour l'adjonction d'eau chaude, et ne sont pas adaptés à la préparation automatique et autonome de portions alimentaires chaudes. In a simple form, easily rehydratable ingredients occupy a tightly closed container or pouch. In a more elaborate form, the dried ingredients occupy separate compartments gathered in a single hermetic packaging. This second presentation facilitates preparation and mixing. However, these products involve manual preparation, especially for adding hot water, and are not suitable for the automatic and autonomous preparation of hot food portions.
Il est donc souhaitable de concevoir, selon la revendication 1. de l'invention, un nouveau produit alimentaire conditionné permattant la préparation rapide et commode de portions de mets chauds à l'aide de machines automa- tiques spécifiques aux conditions d'usage sûres et économiques sur les plans du fonctionnement, de la maintenance, et des contraintes sanitaires. It is therefore desirable to design, according to claim 1. of the invention, a new packaged food product permitting the rapid and convenient preparation of portions of hot food using automatic machines specific to safe conditions of use and economical in terms of operation, maintenance and health constraints.
A cet effet, la présente invention concerne un nouveau produit alimen taire spécifiquement conditionné comportant une combinaison d'ingrédients alimentaires, qui occupent les deux compartiments contigus et fermés, de façon étanche, d'un emballage hermétique. To this end, the present invention relates to a new food product specifically packaged comprising a combination of food ingredients, which occupy the two adjoining compartments and closed, in a sealed manner, in an airtight package.
Le premier compartiment reçoit un ingrédient alimentaire liquide, notamment de l'eau. D'autres liquides, tels que huile, jus, sauce ou lait, peuvent également remplacer l'eau selon la nature du mets recherché. The first compartment receives a liquid food ingredient, in particular water. Other liquids, such as oil, juice, sauce or milk, can also replace water depending on the nature of the food sought.
Le second compartiment reçoit un ou des ingrédients alimentaires sous forme de substances solides sensiblement séchons et facilement réhydrata- bles. The second compartment receives one or more food ingredients in the form of substantially dry and easily rehydratable solid substances.
Ces substances très répandues, proviennent notamment d'aliments précuits et séches, ou atomisés, ou lyophilises. Il s'agit en particulier de légumes, de pates alimentaires, de céréales, de semoules, d'oeufs, de fromages, ou de viandes. These very widespread substances, come in particular from precooked and dried food, or atomized, or freeze-dried. These are in particular vegetables, pasta, cereals, semolina, eggs, cheeses, or meats.
L'emballage hermétique du produit alimentaire de l'invention est confectionné dans une matière résistante à la chaleur et à l'humidité, par exemple en polystyrène, pour des températures de 800 à 100 , en complexe carton et film de prolypropylène pour des températures de 1500. The hermetic packaging of the food product of the invention is made of a material resistant to heat and humidity, for example polystyrene, for temperatures from 800 to 100, cardboard complex and prolypropylene film for temperatures of 1500.
La matière employer pour l'emballage du produit de l'invention est impérativement transparente au rayonnement électromagnétique afin de permettre le chauffage, notamment du liquide alimentaire, lors de son utilisation dans le procédé de l'invention. The material used for packaging the product of the invention is imperatively transparent to electromagnetic radiation in order to allow heating, in particular of the liquid food, during its use in the process of the invention.
Les proportions d'ingrédients alimentaires sont doses pour leur permettre d'être utilisées ensemble pour préparer au moins une portion de mets. The proportions of food ingredients are doses to allow them to be used together to prepare at least one portion of food.
Lorsque le produit de l'invention est stocké dans des conditions normales, notamment de température, un obturateur fermé isole le premier du second compartiment. Sous l'effet d'une élévation de température d'un composant du produit de l'invention, l'obturateur peut s'ouvrir et faire ainsi communiquer les deux compartiments. When the product of the invention is stored under normal conditions, in particular of temperature, a closed shutter isolates the first from the second compartment. Under the effect of a rise in temperature of a component of the product of the invention, the shutter can open and thus make the two compartments communicate.
Dans une mise en oeuvre préférée du produit de l'invention, c'est lBélévation de température de l'ingrédient liquide qui provoque l'ouverture de l'obturateur. In a preferred implementation of the product of the invention, it is the temperature rise of the liquid ingredient which causes the opening of the shutter.
Selon une caractéristique du produit de l'invention l'obturateur est scelle et maintenu dans une position fermée par une matière thermofusible. According to a characteristic of the product of the invention, the shutter is sealed and kept in a closed position by a hot-melt material.
La matière thermofusible fond et libère l'obturateur en position ouverte au contact thermique de l'ingrédient-alimentaire liquide chaud. The hot-melt material melts and releases the shutter in the open position on thermal contact with the hot liquid food ingredient.
On choisit une matière thermofusible dont la température de fusion est proche de celle du liquide de réhydratation prêt à I'emploi. A hot-melt material is chosen whose melting temperature is close to that of the ready-to-use rehydration liquid.
Dans cette forme de réalisation, la matière thermofusible est transparente aux rayonnements électromagnétiques, afin que son élévation de température soit provoque uniquement par l'échange thermique avec le liquide. In this embodiment, the hot-melt material is transparent to electromagnetic radiation, so that its rise in temperature is caused only by heat exchange with the liquid.
Une paraffine ou une cire convient bien à l'effet recherché.A paraffin or a wax is very suitable for the desired effect.
Dans cette forme de réalisation, l'obturateur se compose d'un opercule mince ajusté à une ouverture pratiquée dans la cloison séparant les deux compartiments. On scelle l'opercule sur la périphérie de l'ouverture. In this embodiment, the shutter consists of a thin cover adjusted to an opening in the partition separating the two compartments. The seal is sealed on the periphery of the opening.
L'opercule peut être par exemple prédécoupé dans la cloison de séparation des compartiments. Une partie non découpée de sa périphérie permet de le laisser solidaire de la cloison. L'entaille de découpe est comblée par la matière thermofusible pour obtenir la position fermée.The cover can for example be precut in the partition dividing the compartments. An uncut part of its periphery allows it to be secured to the partition. The cutting notch is filled with the hot-melt material to obtain the closed position.
Selon une variante de rEalisation de l'obturateur, l'opercule est un clapet solidaire de la cloison de séparation recouvrant l'ouverture. Le scellement en matière thermofusible est effectué au plan de joint du clapet et de la cloison. According to an alternative embodiment of the shutter, the cover is a valve secured to the partition separating the opening. The sealing in hot-melt material is carried out at the joint plane of the valve and of the partition.
Selon une autre forme de réalisation du produit de l'invention, les deux compartiments fermés se présentent sous la forme de pochettes formées par la réunion de feuilles souples soudées à leurs pédiphéries. According to another embodiment of the product of the invention, the two closed compartments are in the form of pockets formed by the union of flexible sheets welded to their pediphtheria.
La réalisation et la matière de ces pochettes sont bien connues, notamment dans le conditionnement de potages à réhydratation instantanée. La matière souple employée doit résister à la chaleur et à I'humidité et être transparente aux rayonnements électromagnétiques. Des feuilles ou des complexes de feuilles en résine thermoplastique conviennent parfaitement, notamment pour assurer leur soudage par chaleur ou haute lFrdiquence. The production and the material of these pouches are well known, in particular in the packaging of instant rehydration soups. The flexible material used must resist heat and humidity and be transparent to electromagnetic radiation. Sheets or complexes of sheets of thermoplastic resin are perfectly suitable, in particular for ensuring their heat or high lFrdiquence welding.
Une pochette délimite le premier compartiment fermé et reçoit l'ingré- dient alimentaire liquide. Elle occupe une partie du volume intérieur d'une deuxième pochette formant le second compartiment ferme'. A pocket delimits the first closed compartment and receives the liquid food ingredient. It occupies part of the interior volume of a second pocket forming the second closed compartment.
Dans le volume intérieur de cette seconde pochettes laissée libre par la première, on place les ingrédients alimentaires sensiblement sFchés. Une partie de la soudure de fermeture de la première pochette est effectuée dans une matière thermofusible. Ainsi une élévation de température de l'ingrédient alimentaire liquide provoque la fusion de cette partie soudée par la matière thermofusible, et laisse s'écarter les bords libres des feuilles formant la première pochette. L'ingrédient alimentaire liquide peut alors s'écouler dans le volume intérieur de la seconde pochette.Cet arrangement constitue le dispositif obturateur selon la revendication 3. In the interior volume of this second pouches left free by the first, the food ingredients are substantially dried. Part of the closure weld of the first pocket is made of a hot-melt material. Thus a rise in temperature of the liquid food ingredient causes the fusion of this part welded by the hot-melt material, and allows the free edges of the sheets forming the first pouch to move apart. The liquid food ingredient can then flow into the interior volume of the second pouch.This arrangement constitutes the closure device according to claim 3.
Selon une autre forme de réalisation du produit de l'invention, l'obturateur se compose d'une soupape conçue pour s'ajuster de façon étanche sur le siège d'une ouverture pratiqués dans une cloison commune aux deux compartiments fermés et contigus
En position fermée de l'obturateur, cette soupape constitue un bouchon engagé en pression dans l'ouverture destinée à faire communiquer les deux compartiments. Sous l'effet de la montée en température de l'ingre'dient alimentaire liquide, la pression dans le premier compartiment fermé aug mente, notamment dans la petite poche d'air complétant le volume du liquide.According to another embodiment of the product of the invention, the shutter consists of a valve designed to fit tightly on the seat of an opening formed in a partition common to the two closed and adjoining compartments
In the closed position of the shutter, this valve constitutes a plug engaged in pressure in the opening intended to make the two compartments communicate. Under the effect of the rise in temperature of the liquid food ingredient, the pressure in the first closed compartment increases, especially in the small air pocket supplementing the volume of the liquid.
La soupape est chasse'e pour une valeur prédéterminée de la surpression du premier compartiment pour la position ouverte de l'obturateur. La tension de maintien de Ba soupape sur le siège de l'ouverture est compatible avec la surpression prédéterminée provoquant son ouverture.The valve is flushed for a predetermined value of the overpressure of the first compartment for the open position of the shutter. The holding voltage of the valve on the seat of the opening is compatible with the predetermined overpressure causing it to open.
Selon une forme préférée de réalisation du produit de l'invention, on réalise le conditionnement à l'aide d'une matière sensiblement rigide en feuille thermoplastique formée, notamment en polystyrène. According to a preferred embodiment of the product of the invention, the packaging is carried out using a substantially rigid material of formed thermoplastic sheet, in particular of polystyrene.
On confectionne un récipient principal, par exemple de forme sensi- blement cylindrique, Xrb de façon étanche paP un couvercle formant un second récipient également fermé. A main container is made, for example of substantially cylindrical shape, Xrb in a sealed manner by a cover forming a second container also closed.
Le second récipeint constitue le premier compartiment étanche selon l'invention et reçoit l'ingrédient alimentaire liqudide. The second container constitutes the first sealed compartment according to the invention and receives the liquid food ingredient.
Les ingrédients alimentaires séchés occupent le récipient principal. The dried food ingredients occupy the main container.
L'obturateur, selon l'une des formes revendiquées, occupa alors la cloison séparant les volumes des récipeients. The shutter, according to one of the claimed forms, then occupied the partition separating the volumes of the containers.
Le couvercle et son récipient solidaire est conçu pour etre facilement retiré afin d'utiliser directement le récipient principal pour la consommation de la portion de mets chaud. The lid and its integral container is designed to be easily removed in order to directly use the main container for the consumption of the portion of hot food.
Selon une variante de la réalisation précédente, le récipient principal comporte un second récipient étanche forme par un double fond. L'ingrédient alimentaire liquide occupe ce second récipient constituant le premier com- partiment fermé selon l'invention. Les ingrédients alimentaires séchés occupent le volume libre du récipient principal fermé de fagon étanche par ura couvercle
L'obturateur, selon l'une des formes revendiquées, occupe la cloison séparant les volumes des récipients.According to a variant of the previous embodiment, the main container comprises a second sealed container formed by a double bottom. The liquid food ingredient occupies this second container constituting the first closed compartment according to the invention. The dried food ingredients occupy the free volume of the main container closed tightly by a cover
The shutter, according to one of the claimed forms, occupies the partition separating the volumes of the containers.
L1 invention concerne également le procédé d'utilisation du produit de l'invention. Il consiste essentiellement à placer le produit alimentaire conditionné de l'invention dans un champ de rayonnement électromagnétique. Sous l'effet du champ de rayonnement l'ingrédient alimentaire liquide s'échauffe, ce qui provoque l'ouverture de l'obturateur
L'ingrédient alimentaire liquide chaud s'écoule alors dans le second compartiment contenant les ingrédients alimentaires facilement réhydratables.Cette condition n'est évidemment remplie que si le produit de l'invention est préalablement positionné dans le champ de rayonnement électromagnétique, selon une orientation parmettant d'une part l'écoulement par gravité du liquide alimentaire, d'autre part le contact thermique entre la matière thermofusible de l'obturateur et le liquide alimentaire chaud.The invention also relates to the method of using the product of the invention. It essentially consists in placing the conditioned food product of the invention in a field of electromagnetic radiation. Under the effect of the radiation field, the liquid food ingredient heats up, which causes the shutter to open.
The hot liquid food ingredient then flows into the second compartment containing the easily rehydratable food ingredients. This condition is obviously fulfilled only if the product of the invention is previously positioned in the electromagnetic radiation field, in an orientation permitting on the one hand the flow by gravity of the food liquid, on the other hand the thermal contact between the hot-melt material of the shutter and the hot food liquid.
L'invention concerne enfin la machine de distribution automatique de portions de mets chauds mettant en oeuvre le procédé de l'invention. The invention finally relates to the machine for automatically distributing portions of hot food using the method of the invention.
La machine de l'invention comprend une enceinte de stockage de produits alimentaires conditionnés, Un poste de préparation muni d'un applicateur de micro-ondes, des moyens pour d6livrer le produit alimentaire conditionné au poste de préparation, un moyen pour commander par jetons ou monnaie, le choix, l'approvisionnement et lè traitement du produit alimentaire, enfin des moyens pour délivrer au consommateur le produit alimentaire chaud peut à la consommation. The machine of the invention comprises an enclosure for storing conditioned food products, A preparation station provided with a microwave applicator, means for delivering the conditioned food product to the preparation station, means for ordering by tokens or currency, the choice, the supply and the treatment of the food product, finally means to deliver to the consumer the hot food product can for consumption.
