Description

The utility model relates to elements of devices for preparing single-ingredient drinks, such as, for example, espresso or Americano, by passing hot water through one capsule containing the substance for preparing the drink. The utility model can be used in a system for the safe preparation of one-component drinks, consisting of a car coffee machine without an internal holder for one capsule and an external holder for one capsule, a glass and one capsule, which is used in vehicles, for example, a taxi.

A stationary automobile coffee maker is known, in which a coffee mug can be removably placed in the brewing station, which is closed with a removable lid, and the lid for the drink includes a chamber for capsules formed in it, including at least one hole for draining the finished drink into a coffee mug, as well as a capsule holder that includes a hole for passing water (patent US7487712, published 02/10/2009). This solution provides protection against splashing in shaking conditions, but is only applicable for individual use and requires systematic cleaning of the lid and capsule retainer, which is not suitable for use in public transport.

It is known to use in a device for preparing beverages a part for connecting to a vessel for removable connection with the rim of the connected vessel; an annular portion in the form of a lid panel extending radially inward relative to said portion for connection to a container having an opening of considerable size for the passage of a large amount of liquid; part in the form of a chamber for receiving into it a portion of flavoring material, formed by walls extending downward relative to the mentioned part in the form of a lid panel and to a position significantly below the mentioned part for connection to the vessel (RF Application for an invention No. 99115457, publ. 06/10/2001 ). The described solution includes a chamber for receiving a portion of flavoring material, which does not ensure the tightness of the flavoring material, which negatively affects the taste of the resulting drink, especially coffee. In addition, the known solution, when used in conditions of shaking and vibration, does not ensure safety for the user, since this design of the device assumes the presence of an open stream of hot water used for brewing.

A device is known in which a capsule with coffee extract is inserted into a holder and placed in a container into which the drink that has leaked through the capsule flows, which, in turn, flows through a flexible hose into a paper or plastic glass and is transferred to the consumer (US patent US 5150645, published 05/29/1991). Above the capsule there are blades for piercing the capsule. The disadvantage of the device is the need to make a hole in the receiving glass for a hose through which the drink enters the glass and fixing the glass, for example, in vehicles.

The technical result achieved by the claimed utility model is to reduce the amount of defects in the production of a nest of one capsule with a piercer.

To achieve the technical result, a nest of one capsule with a piercer is claimed, containing a mount, a holder and a piercer, configured to be connected to one capsule without an internal piercer and the annular part of the external holder of one capsule, characterized in that it is designed to be connected to the piercer.

The claimed device is an element of an external holder for one capsule, used in a system for the safe preparation of single-component drinks in transport.

The system for the safe preparation of one-component drinks in transport is a system of elements connected to each other. The elements of the system for the safe preparation of one-component drinks in transport are a car coffee machine without an internal capsule holder, a glass 4, a capsule 3 and an external holder of one capsule, consisting of a nest of one capsule with a piercer and a ring part 1, while the elements of the external holder of one capsule are designed to connections with each other.

Ensuring safety in the system for the safe preparation of one-component drinks in transport is achieved by eliminating the open stream of a hot one-component drink when preparing a one-component drink and the situation when a hot one-component drink is in an unclosed glass after preparing a one-component drink in a moving vehicle, which is achieved by pouring a one-component drink immediately into a closed glass.

The claimed device is manufactured using injection molding, for example, using an injection molding machine.

To produce the claimed device, a mold is made into which molten plastic material is poured under pressure. The execution of the nest of one capsule 2 is inseparable from the piercer 7 requires the manufacture of a complex mold, the use of which can lead to a large number of defects in the production of the claimed device. It is possible to reduce the number of defects if you make one mold for the production of the piercer 7 and a second mold for the manufacture of the nest of one capsule 2. Thus, two products are obtained, and the piercer 7 is inserted into the nest of one capsule 2 either on the production line, or before use . This method will provide less waste compared to the option of using a mold for the nest of one capsule 2 made inseparably from the piercer 7.

Example:

A single capsule socket with a piercer is used in car coffee machines without an internal capsule holder, with a capsule without an internal piercer, for example, the Nespresso standard, is made, for example, of plastic, contains a mount 5 and a holder 6.

A single capsule socket with a piercer contains a single capsule socket 2 and a piercer 7, which are configured to be connected to each other using a mechanical connection, such as, for example, hook-shaped latches or elastic latches, or latches with ring or spherical snap elements.

The nest of one capsule 2 contains a fastener 5, which is designed to be connected to the ring part 1, the fastener 5 can be an annular groove, or a thread or another type of connection that prevents spilling and/or splashing of liquid from the glass 4, through the “ring part 1” connection - nest of one capsule 2".

The nest of one capsule 2 contains a holder 6, configured to connect with one capsule 3, the holder 6 can be an annular groove, or a thread, or another type of fastening that prevents the capsule 3 from falling out of the holder 6 and the spilling of liquid from the glass 4 through the “holder 6” connection -capsule 3". The holder 6 is designed to be removably connected to one capsule 3 in such a way that the drink flowing from the capsule 3 falls into the glass 4.

The annular part 1 contains at least one hole, made with the possibility of drinking a drink from a glass 4, and is made with the possibility of connection with the glass 4 and the claimed device.

The claimed device is made with the ability to access and tightly press the upper capsule piercer, which is an element of a car coffee machine, to one capsule 3 installed in the claimed device.

To use a capsule without an internal piercer, the claimed device contains a piercer 7, including one piercing element. The piercer 7 is configured to be installed on the claimed device using a mechanical connection, such as, for example, hook-shaped clamps or elastic clamps, or clamps with ring or spherical snap elements, while the sharp piercing part of the piercer 7 is configured to pierce one capsule 3 at placing one capsule 3 in the claimed device.

The utility model works as follows:

The user manually places the ring part 1 on the cup 4, inserts the claimed device into the ring part 1, inserts the capsule 3 into the holder 6 of the claimed device as shown in FIG. 3, while the capsule 3 is pierced with its lower part by the piercer 7, after which the user places the glass 4 with the installed capsule 3, the ring part 1 and the claimed device into the automobile coffee machine and presses the upper capsule piercer, which is an element of the automobile coffee machine, to the capsule 3 using devices for pressing, for example, a linear actuator. The user turns on the water supply. Using a water pump, water is supplied to the upper capsule piercer, which is configured to allow water passing through the upper capsule piercer to flow into capsule 3 through the puncture. Water passes through the capsule 3 into the glass 4. After the glass 4 is filled, the user moves the upper capsule piercer away from the capsule 3 using a linear movement actuator, and removes the glass 4 with the installed capsule 3, the ring part 1 and the claimed device. The drink is ready for consumption through the hole, which is an element of the ring part 1. After drinking the drink, the user disposes of the claimed device with a glass, capsule and ring part.

Thus, the claimed utility model makes it possible to reduce the amount of defects in the production of a nest of one capsule with a piercer.
