Description

The utility model relates to elements of devices for preparing drinks by extracting bulk substances, such as ground coffee, crushed tea leaves, chocolate powder, milk powder, sugar, cinnamon and others contained in capsules without an internal piercer, and can be used primarily in vending coffee machines in vehicles, in particular taxis.

Known devices are a glass holder for preparing drinks in transport, including a glass, a ring part with holes for drinking and air, fastening the glass in the form of a holder, a capsule with an extract and a removable socket for it, as well as a capsule piercer. Technical solutions in these devices are aimed at increasing the safety of preparing and consuming drinks in driving vehicles under the influence of shaking, acceleration and cramped passenger space, expanding the possibility of preparation and simplifying the design. Safety means minimizing damage to the clothing and health of the passenger, as well as the interior of the car.

In devices [1-3], to prevent accidental separation of components and spilling of a drink on a passenger or upholstery, all main parts (glass, ring part, socket, capsule) are made inseparable from each other. However, making these parts inseparable complicates their manufacturing technology, which leads to a significant increase in their cost.

In devices [4-6], the glass is made removable, and the socket and the annular part are inseparable from each other. But at the same time, accidental separation of the glass during drinking the drink in shaking conditions and its spillage are possible.

The closest technical solution adopted for the prototype is a glass holder [7], including a marked removable glass with a flange, an annular part with holes for drinking and air, as well as fastening the glass in the form of a holder and an internal annular protrusion made with the possibility of pressing to the inner wall of the glass, a capsule with extract, a removable socket for it and a lower capsule piercer.

However, this design has an insufficiently reliable fastening of the glass with the ring part, which can lead to their separation during drinking the drink in shaking conditions and its spilling.

The technical result of the proposed solution is to increase the safety of drinking drinks.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that in a device that includes a marked removable glass with a flange, an annular part with holes for drinking and air, as well as fastening the glass in the form of a holder and an internal annular protrusion made with the possibility of pressing against the inner wall of the glass, a capsule with extract , a removable socket for it and a lower capsule piercer , on the outer cylindrical surface of the annular part there are two or more elastic grips, the working part of which has the profile of a right triangle and engages with the lower surface of the flange, and through slots are made on the surface of the holder for the free passage of the grips .

In addition, the device is equipped with a locking ring, which is installed on the outer side surface of the holder.

The provision of two or more elastic grips installed diametrically opposite on the outer cylindrical surface of the annular part and engaging with the lower surface of the flange makes it possible to fix the flanging of the glass in the annular groove between the holder and the inner annular protrusion of the annular part and thereby prevent the glass from falling out when drinking a drink , which increases safety during its use. The slots on the surface of the holder create conditions for the free passage of the grips through the lower part of the holder. And the profile of the working part of the elastic grips in the form of a right triangle allows the grips to deviate and allow the flanging of the glass to pass during its installation in the annular groove between the holder and the inner annular protrusion. All this increases safety when drinking the drink.

Installing a locking ring on the outer side surface of the holder allows you to fix the position of the working part of the elastic grip and makes it impossible to separate the glass from the annular part, which further increases the safety of drinking the drink.

The essence of the proposed device is illustrated by drawings and diagrams, which show: FIG. 1 - general view of the glass holder; Fig. 2 - junction of the glass and the annular part on an enlarged scale; Fig. 3 - diagram of the installation of the glass and its fixation in the annular groove between the holder and the inner annular protrusion of the annular part.

The following designations are used in the illustrations: 1 - glass; 2 - flanging; 3 - annular part; 4- holder; 5 - internal annular protrusion; 6 - elastic grip; 7 - working part of elastic grips 6; 8 - through slot on the holder; 9 - capsule socket; 10 - capsule with extract; 11 - lower piercer; 12 - bracket; 13 - retaining ring.

The holding glass consists of (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2) a marked glass 1 with a flange 2, an annular part 3 with holes for drinking and air (not shown), as well as with fastening the glass in the form of a holder 4 and an internal annular protrusion 5, made with the possibility of pressing against the inner wall of the glass 1. On the outer cylindrical surface of the annular part 3, two or more elastic grips 6 are made (four are shown in Fig. 1), which engage with the lower surface of the flanging 2. The working part of the elastic grips 7 has triangular profile, and on the surface of the holder 4 through slots 8 are made for the free passage of grippers 6. In the annular part 3 in the center there is a through hole into which a removable socket 9 is installed with a capsule 10 containing a drink extract, for example, standard capsules without a lower piercer " Nespresso." In the center of the bottom of the glass 1, a lower piercer 11 in the form of a needle is installed in the bracket 12, with its sharp end resting against the bottom of the capsule 10. A locking ring 13 is installed on the outer surface of the holder 4. The annular part, the fastening of the glass and the elastic grips are made one-piece, for example, by casting under by pressure from plastic or by stamping individual parts from cardboard and then gluing them together. Glass 1, socket 9 and retaining ring 13 are also made of cardboard or plastic.

The proposed technical solution works as follows. The passenger installs the lower piercer 11 into the bracket 12, places the annular part 3 on the flange 2 of the cup 1 (see Fig. 3 A) and presses on it (see Fig. 3 B). Thanks to the profile of the working part of the elastic grips 7 in the form of a right triangle, the grips 7 are deflected and pass the flanging of the cup 2 into the annular groove between the holder 4 and the inner annular protrusion 5, and the elastic grips 7 return to the initial position (see Fig. 3 B), thereby ensuring the fixation of the connection of the glass 1 with the ring part 3 and increasing the safety of drinking the drink. Then a locking ring 13 is installed on the outer side surface of the holder 4, which allows you to fix the position of the working part of the elastic grip 7 and makes it impossible to separate the glass 1 from the annular part 3 without removing the locking ring 13. This further increases the safety of drinking the drink.

Then the passenger inserts the socket 9 into the ring part 3 and the capsule 10 into the socket 9. In this case, the capsule 10 is pierced in its lower part by the piercer 11. After this, the passenger places the holder cup in the car coffee machine and presses the capsule 10 with the lever of the coffee machine, equipped with an upper capsule piercer and supplying boiling water. The user turns on the supply of a portion of boiling water, which passes under pressure through capsule 10, a drink is formed, flowing into glass 1. After this, the passenger lifts the lever and removes the glass holder. The drink is ready to drink through the drinking hole.

The proposed technical solution increases the reliability of fastening a glass with a ring part in comparison with the prototype and thereby ensures the safety of drinking drinks.
