Description

La pressente invention a pour objet un gobelet conçu de manière a' permettre la préparation de boissons infusées, telles que par exemple un "café-filtre" par simple apport d'eau chaude. The object of the present invention is a cup designed so as to allow the preparation of infused drinks, such as for example a "filter coffee" by simple addition of hot water.

On connais un type de gobelet pour la préparation de boissons instantanées qui comporte un compartiment inférieur dans lequel est placée une dose d'une boisson soluble, de préférence en poudre, la boisson désirée étant obtenue par dissolution dans de l'eau de la dose contenue dans ledit compartiment inférieur
La présente invention met en oeuvre un gobelet de ce type, carac térisé en outre en ce que ledit compartiment inférieur reçoit une dose du constituant de la boisson désirée, par exemple une dose de café torréfié mouluet il est recouvert par une grille, formant filtre, elle-m8me protégée ou non avant l'utilisation par un opercule détachable, cette grille étant munie d'un tube se prolongeant vers le bas au-travers dudit compartiment inférieur, pour permettre l'introduction de l'eau chaude sous pression dans ce compartiment, afin de réaliser l'infusion désirée, la boisson infusée remontant dans la partie supérieure du gobelet au-travers de ladite grille.There is a known type of cup for the preparation of instant drinks which comprises a lower compartment in which is placed a dose of a soluble drink, preferably in powder form, the desired drink being obtained by dissolving the dose contained in water. in said lower compartment
The present invention uses a cup of this type, further characterized in that said lower compartment receives a dose of the constituent of the desired drink, for example a dose of roasted ground coffee and it is covered by a grid, forming a filter, itself protected or not protected before use by a detachable cover, this grid being provided with a tube extending downward through said lower compartment, to allow the introduction of hot water under pressure into this compartment , in order to carry out the desired infusion, the infused drink rising in the upper part of the cup through said grid.

Selon une caractéristique de cette invention, ledit tube débouche à sa partie inférieure dans le compartiment, contenant la dose dudit constituant, par exemple du café moulu, par une ouverture munie d'un clapet anti-retour. According to a characteristic of this invention, said tube opens at its lower part into the compartment, containing the dose of said constituent, for example ground coffee, through an opening provided with a non-return valve.

Selon une variante de cette invention, le tube est fermé a' sa partie inférieure et ses parois latérales et/ou son fond sont percés d'une pluralité de trous, pour permettre le passage de l'eau chaude dans le compartiment inférieur, contenant ledit constituant, tel que du café moulu. According to a variant of this invention, the tube is closed at its lower part and its side walls and / or its bottom are pierced with a plurality of holes, to allow the passage of hot water in the lower compartment, containing said constituent, such as ground coffee.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de cette invention ressortiront de la description faite ci-après, en référence au dessin annexé qui en illustre deux exemples de réalisation, dépourvus de tout caractère limitatif.  Other characteristics and advantages of this invention will emerge from the description given below, with reference to the appended drawing which illustrates two exemplary embodiments thereof, devoid of any limiting character.

Sur le dessin
-la Figure 1 est une vueen élévation latérale et coupe verticale d'un gobelet selon l'invention
- la Figure 2 est une vue schématique partielle, représentant un détail de l'invention et,
- la Figure 3 est une vue partielle en coupe verticale d'un exemple de réalisation d'une grille et d'un tube pour un gobelet selon l'invention.On the drawing
FIG. 1 is a side elevation view and vertical section of a cup according to the invention
FIG. 2 is a partial schematic view showing a detail of the invention and,
- Figure 3 is a partial view in vertical section of an embodiment of a grid and a tube for a cup according to the invention.

En se référant au dessin, on voit qu'un gobelet selon l'invention comporte comme connu, un compartiment inférieur 10, pouvant être ou non isolé par un opercule étanche 12, détachable par l'utilisateur au moyen d'une languette 14. Le compartiment inférieur 10 reçoitune dose d'un constituant de la boisson à obtenir, par exemple une dose de café torréfié moulu 16 et il est recouvert par une grille 18, elle-meme protégée ou non par l'opercule détachable 12. Cette grille est munie d'un tube central 20, ouvert à son extrémité supérieure en 22.Dans le mode de réalisation illustré par les Figures 1 et 2, le tube 20 débouche à son extrémité inférieure dans la dose de café 16, par l'intermédiaire d'une ouverture pourvue d'un clapet anti-retour 24, réalisé de préférence sous la forme d'une ou de deux lèvres venant se plaquer contre l'ouverture inférieure du tube. Referring to the drawing, it can be seen that a cup according to the invention comprises, as known, a lower compartment 10, which may or may not be isolated by a sealed cover 12, detachable by the user by means of a tongue 14. The lower compartment 10 receives a dose of a constituent of the drink to be obtained, for example a dose of ground roasted coffee 16 and it is covered by a grid 18, itself protected or not by the detachable cover 12. This grid is provided a central tube 20, open at its upper end at 22. In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the tube 20 opens at its lower end into the dose of coffee 16, via a opening provided with a non-return valve 24, preferably made in the form of one or two lips pressing against the lower opening of the tube.

Dans la variante illustrée par la Figure 3, le tube 20' dont est munie la grille 18 en son centre, est bouché à son extrémité inférieure et ses parois latérales et/ou son fond sont percés d'une pluralité de trous 26, 26'. In the variant illustrated in Figure 3, the tube 20 'which is provided with the grid 18 in its center, is plugged at its lower end and its side walls and / or its bottom are pierced with a plurality of holes 26, 26' .

De préférence, le gobelet est réalisé en polypropylène, la grille, elle-meme réalisée de préférence en polypropylène, étant soudée sur le rebord supérieur du compartiment 10. De même, la grille peut entre constituée d'une structure à mailles larges recouvertes d'un papier-filtre. Preferably, the cup is made of polypropylene, the grid, itself preferably made of polypropylene, being welded to the upper edge of the compartment 10. Likewise, the grid can be made up of a wide mesh structure covered with a filter paper.

La mise en oeuvre du gobelet selon l'invention s'effectue de la façon suivante. The implementation of the cup according to the invention is carried out as follows.

L'utilisateur enlève l'opercule 12 par traction sur la languette 14, puis il introduit de l'eau chaude sous pression, selon la flèche F, au-travers du tube 20 (20'), l'eau chaude sous pression ressort du tube, soit par l'ouver- ture inférieure munie du clapet anti-retour (Figures 1 et 2), soit par les trous 26, 26' de ses parois latérales et/ou de son fond (Figure 3). L'eau passe autravers de la mouture de café 16, contenue dans le compartiment inférieur, puis l'infusion de café remonte dans le compartiment supérieur du gobelet, en traversant les mailles de la grille 18. On a ainsi réalisé, sans manipulation de café, un café-filtre. The user removes the cover 12 by pulling on the tongue 14, then he introduces hot water under pressure, according to arrow F, through the tube 20 (20 '), the hot water under pressure comes out of the tube, either through the lower opening provided with the non-return valve (Figures 1 and 2), or through the holes 26, 26 'in its side walls and / or its bottom (Figure 3). The water passes through the ground coffee 16, contained in the lower compartment, then the coffee infusion rises in the upper compartment of the cup, crossing the meshes of the grid 18. This was achieved, without handling coffee , a filter coffee.

Cette invention s'applique tout spécialement aux appareils distributeurs automatiques de boissons chaudes, étant donné qu'il suffit de disposer d'une source d'eau chaude sous pression. This invention applies especially to automatic dispensers for hot drinks, since it suffices to have a source of pressurized hot water.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples de réalisation décrits et représentés, mais elle en englobe toutes les variantes. Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and shown, but it encompasses all variants.

C'est ainsi que bien que l'exemple de réalisation décrit ci-dessus se réfère à la préparation du café, l'invention s'applique également à la préparation d'autres boissons chaudes, notamment de thé et autres infusions. Thus, although the embodiment described above refers to the preparation of coffee, the invention also applies to the preparation of other hot drinks, in particular tea and other infusions.
