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 without an internal piercer containing an extract or substance for preparing the drink. The utility model can be used in a system for the safe preparation of single-component drinks, consisting of a car coffee machine with a scanner and without an internal capsule holder, a labeled external holder of one capsule, a glass and one capsule, which is used in vehicles, for example in 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 cup and is transferred to the consumer (US patent US 5150645, published 05/29/1991). Above the capsule there is a blade 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 increase the safety of the system for the safe preparation of one-component drinks from one capsule without an internal piercer.

To achieve a technical result, a marked annular part of the socket of one capsule is claimed with an internal protrusion, a retainer and a connected single piercer, containing a marking capable of being read by a scanner of a car coffee machine, a holder capable of connecting to a glass, a mount capable of connecting to the socket one capsule, an internal protrusion configured to be pressed against the inside of the wall of the glass, at least one clamp configured to be fixed on the glass, at least one bracket configured to connect with a single piercer, a single piercer configured to pierce one capsule , characterized in that the single piercer is designed to be mechanically connected to the annular part.

The essence of the claimed utility model is illustrated by illustrations:

The claimed device, a marked annular part of a single capsule socket with a retainer and a connected single piercer 1, is an element of a marked external holder of a single capsule used in a system for the safe preparation of single-component drinks.

The system for the safe preparation of one-component drinks is a system of elements connected to each other. The elements of the system for the safe preparation of one-component drinks are a car coffee machine 10 not equipped with an internal capsule holder and equipped with a scanner 7, a glass 4, one capsule 3 and a marked external holder for one capsule.

The marked outer holder of one capsule consists of a socket of one capsule 2, a marked annular part of the socket of one capsule with a retainer and connected by a single piercer 1 and a single piercer 8, and these elements are made with the possibility of mechanical connection with each other. The labeled outer single capsule holder in its assembled position is shown in FIG. 2B.

Increasing the safety of the system for the safe preparation of single-component drinks is ensured by reducing the likelihood of using defective claimed devices, since a defective claimed device can create a danger, for example, of accidental removal of the claimed device from a glass and/or a capsule falling out and a hot drink pouring out of a glass into the glass. time of consumption of the drink on the passenger and/or elements of the vehicle interior.

The claimed device is manufactured using injection molding, for example, using an injection molding machine; for its production it will be necessary to make a mold into which molten plastic material is poured under pressure. The claimed device is a complex figure having a combination of undercuts; its production in a monolithic design will require the manufacture of a complex mold, which may include special forming elements, such as folding punches, composite and sliding dies and special removal plates. Obviously, the more complex the mold, the higher the defect rate. In the “Great Encyclopedia of Oil and Gas” with reference to the book by Samokhvalov Y.A. “Handbook of Design Technicians”, in chapter 8 “Parts made of plastics” it is written: “...Undercuts impair the manufacturability of parts, reduce their accuracy and surface quality, complicate the design of the mold and limit productivity during pressing. By changing the design of products, undercuts can be avoided. If it is impossible to avoid undercuts, then in some cases it is advisable to split such a part into two (or more) simple parts...” page 330, paragraph 5. https://www.ngpedia.ru/pg1677673pmQmENz0001274576/. Thus, it is possible to reduce the number of defects if you make one mold for the production of a nest of one capsule 2, a second mold for the production of a marked ring part of the nest of one capsule with a retainer and a connected single piercer 1, and a third mold for the production of a single piercer 8 Thus, obtain three products and insert the nest of one capsule 2 into the marked ring part of the nest of one capsule with a retainer and connected by a single piercer 1, onto which a single piercer 8 is attached either on the production line or before use. This method will provide less waste in the production of a marked external holder of one capsule in comparison with the option of using a mold for a nest of one capsule 2, made inseparably from the marked annular part of the nest of one capsule with a latch and connected by a single piercer 1, made inseparably from a single piercer 8 .

Increasing the safety of the system for the safe preparation of single-component drinks is ensured by reducing the likelihood of accidental removal of the claimed device from a glass while drinking a single-component drink, since removing the claimed device from a glass while drinking a drink can lead to spilling of the drink on the user and the vehicle interior in shaking conditions during car movement.

To reduce the likelihood of accidental removal of the claimed device from a glass during the preparation and consumption of a one-component drink, the claimed device contains one or more latches 13, which are made inseparably from the claimed device using stamping or casting, or gluing or another method of connection, and can also be made of plastic. The clamps 13 are shaped to bend around the flange 12 during installation of the claimed device on the glass 4 and with the possibility of fixing on the flange 12 when the claimed device is finally installed on the glass 4 in such a way that further removal of the claimed device from the glass 4 becomes impossible. This shape can be, for example, a wedge shape or any other form of shape with an inclined plane, made with the ability to move the latch 13 against the flange 12 and press the latch 13 to the flange 12, grasping the flange 12 when installing the claimed device on the glass 4 in such a way that further Removing the claimed device from glass 4 becomes impossible. The presence of latches 13 reduces the likelihood of removing the claimed device from the glass 4, thus increasing the safety of the system for the safe preparation of single-component drinks.

Increasing the safety of the system for the safe preparation of single-component drinks is ensured by eliminating the possibility of using the claimed device with a car coffee machine that does not correspond to the claimed device, for example, with a car coffee machine designed to prepare multi-component drinks, in which the upper capsule piercer is configured to pierce several capsules simultaneously, location which differs from the location of the capsule in the claimed device. Supplying water to the upper capsule piercer of a car coffee machine designed to prepare multi-ingredient drinks will cause hot water to splash past the capsules and create a risk of hot water splashing onto the user and the vehicle interior.

To eliminate such a danger, the claimed device contains marking 9, which can be a barcode or a QR code, which is applied to the claimed device, for example, by painting, and/or gluing, and/or burning, and/or casting, and/or stamping or using any other application method. Marking 9 contains encoded information, for example, about the type of the declared device and/or any other information that allows the automobile coffee machine 10 to identify the declared device as an element that, based on the type and legitimacy of production, can be used with the automobile coffee machine 10. The presence of marking 9 allows you to control the compatibility of the declared device and automobile coffee machine 10, and also allows you to obtain any other information about the claimed device, which may be contained in the marking 9. To read the marking 9, the automobile coffee machine 10 contains a scanner 7. The automobile coffee machine 10 is designed to receive and analyze information obtained from the marking 9 and making a decision about the possibility or impossibility of operating the automobile coffee machine 10 together with the proposed claimed device. The analysis of the marking 9 occurs, for example, using the electronic control unit of a car coffee machine, which is designed to analyze the information received from the marking 9 and send a command to the elements of the car coffee machine 10 to prepare a drink or block the process of preparing a drink. Marking 9 can be applied to any place of the claimed device with the ability to read marking 9 by scanner 7.

The marked ring part of the nest of one capsule with a lock and a connected single piercer 1 is designed for use in automobile coffee machines equipped with a scanner and not equipped with an internal capsule holder, with one capsule without an internal piercer, for example, Nespresso standard, made, for example, of plastic, contains markings 9, fastening 5, monolithically connected to the holder 6. The claimed device is made with the possibility of mechanical connection with a single piercer 8 using, for example, hook-shaped clamps or elastic clamps, or clamps with ring or spherical snap elements, or using another mechanical connection option .

The marked annular part of the nest of one capsule with a retainer and a connected single piercer 1 contains at least one hole made with the possibility of drinking a drink from a glass 4.

The marked annular part of the nest of one capsule with a latch and a connected single piercer 1 is designed to be connected to the nest of one capsule 2 using fastening 5, which can be an annular groove, or thread or other type of fastening that prevents spilling and/or splashing of liquid from the glass 4, through the connection “the marked ring part of the nest of one capsule with a retainer and a connected single piercer 1 – the nest of one capsule 2”. The marked annular part of the nest of one capsule with a latch and a connected single piercer 1 is designed to be connected to the glass 4 using a holder 6, which 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 connection “the marked ring part of the nest of one capsule with a retainer and a connected single piercer 1 - glass 4.” The marked annular part of the socket of one capsule with a latch and a connected single piercer 1 is made with the ability to access and tightly press the upper piercer of one capsule, which is an element of the automobile coffee machine 10, to one capsule 3 installed in the socket of one capsule 2. The marked annular part of the socket of one capsule with a latch and connected by a single piercer 1 is configured to be connected to the nest of one capsule 2 in such a way that a single-component drink flowing from one capsule 3 installed in the nest of one capsule 2 enters the glass 4.

To use one capsule without an internal piercer, the claimed device contains a single piercer 8, including one piercing part, for example, a needle. The single piercing device 8 may be secured to the inventive device by means of a mechanical connection such as, for example, hook-shaped fasteners or elastic fasteners, or fasteners with annular or spherical snap elements, or by means of another type of mechanical connection, wherein the sharp, piercing, part of the single piercer 8 is configured to pierce one capsule 3 when placing one capsule 3 in the nest of one capsule 2.

For mechanical connection with a single piercer 8, the claimed device contains several brackets 11, configured to mechanically fix the single piercer 8. The bracket 11 can be, for example, a hook-shaped retainer or an elastic retainer, or a retainer with ring or spherical snap elements, or another option mechanical connection. The bracket 11 is made inseparably from the claimed device, for example, by soldering or gluing, or casting, or by another method of inseparable connection.

The utility model works as follows.

The user manually inserts the nest of one capsule 2 and a single piercer 8 into the claimed device, places the claimed device on the glass 4, while the holder 6 clasps the flange 12, and the latch 13 is fixed on the flange 12, thus reducing the likelihood of removing the claimed device from the glass 4, which increases the safety of the system for the safe preparation of single-ingredient drinks. Next, the user installs one capsule 3 into the socket of one capsule 2 as shown in Fig. 3, while one capsule 3 is pierced with its lower part by a single piercer 8, after which the user places a glass 4 with one capsule 3 installed, with the socket of one capsule 2 and the claimed device into the automobile coffee machine 10 and presses the upper piercer of one capsule, which is an element of the automobile coffee machine 10, to the capsule 3 using a pressing device, for example, a linear motion actuator. The user turns on the water supply. The automobile coffee machine 10, using a scanner 7, reads the marking 9, analyzes the information received and sends a command to the elements of the automobile coffee machine 10 to prepare a one-component drink or blocks the process of preparing the drink. Using a water pump, water is supplied to the upper piercer of one capsule, which is configured to allow water passing through the upper piercer of one capsule to flow into one capsule 3 through the puncture. Water passes through one capsule 3 into the glass 4. After the glass 4 is filled, the user moves the upper piercer of one capsule away from the capsule 3, lifting the linear movement actuator, and removes the glass 4 with the installed capsule 3, with the socket of one capsule 2 and the stated device. The drink is ready to drink through the hole. After drinking the drink, the user disposes of the claimed device with a glass, a capsule and a nest for one capsule.

Thus, the claimed utility model makes it possible to increase the safety of the system for the safe preparation of a one-component drink from one capsule without an internal piercer.
