Definitions
- the present invention relates to a capsule designed to be extracted under pressure and containing a substance for the preparation of a food product such as a beverage .
- Patent EP 0512468 in the name of the Applicant Company relates to such a cartridge.
- the cartridge is intended to be inserted into an extraction system.
- the cartridge is thus opened against a supporting part of the system comprising raised elements under the effect of the pressure of the fluid entering the cartridge.
- the problem with this cartridge is that the beverage extracted from the cartridge runs over this supporting part and through ducting means, which means that it is difficult, if not impossible, for contamination and taste reasons, to envisage extracting with this system cartridges containing substances other than roasted ground coffee, because of the beverage residue present on the said support .
- Document GB 1 256 247 relates to a cartridge containing a substance suited for the preparation of a beverage.
- the cartridge is opened by deforming the lid of the cartridge using an external piston which collaborates with an internal puncturing element. This system is complicated to use in order to open the capsule at the correct moment.
- the purpose of the present invention is to make available to the consumer a capsule which does not have this disadvantage, that is to say a capsule which can contain a wide variety of substances to be extracted as needs be, and which allows preparation and outflow of the beverage without there being a need for the beverage at any time to come into contact with part of the system.
- the present invention relates to a capsule designed to be extracted by injection of a fluid under pressure in an extraction device, containing a substance for the preparation of a beverage, comprising a closed chamber containing the said substance and a means allowing the said capsule to be opened at the time of its use and for allowing the said beverage to flow out.
- each capsule comprises its own opening means activated by the rise of pressure of the fluid introduced into the capsule at the time of its extraction.
- Another principle of the invention lies in the fact that the capsule has its own outflow passage with its own ducting means making it possible to avoid, or at the very least considerably reduce, contact with the elements of the system or of the extraction device.
- a result of these principles, taken alone or in combination, is that it is possible one after the other, to extract substances of different types or varieties without prejudice to the taste and without the risk of cross-contamination.
- the capsules can thus contain substances of very diverse nature and/or variety capable of being extracted or dissolved in water. It is thus possible to envisage any substance that is infused and any soluble substance: it must be clearly understood that both for extraction or for infusion or dissolution, the liquid element is hot, cold or warm water.
- a configuration in which the opening means are specific to the capsule also has the advantage that each opening can be tailored and adjusted to suit the nature and/or the variety of the substance to be extracted. In other words, depending on the substance, opening may occur at different pressures and different times in order to achieve an optimum result.
- opening is achieved by relative engagement of the opening means with a retaining part of the closed chamber.
- the relative engagement of the opening means and of the retaining part is thus performed under the effect of the rise in pressure of the fluid in the chamber.
- relative engagement is to be understood as meaning: either the opening means or the retaining part of the closed chamber, or alternatively both can be moved one with respect to the other to effect opening.
- the opening means may be housed inside the closed chamber and thus be moved by thrust under the effect of the rise in pressure of the fluid in the chamber against the retaining part of the chamber.
- the opening means may be housed outside the closed chamber and the retaining wall is then moved under the effect of the rise in pressure against the opening means.
- the means may be housed in the capsule but outside the chamber containing the substance.
- the closed chamber of course has to be understood from the closed main part of the capsule which contains the substance to be extracted.
- the opening means is an element comprising at least one puncturing element.
- the opening means may thus form a surface comprising a multitude of puncturing elements.
- Such a configuration is preferred because such a surface acts as a pressure-spreading means and has the effect of allowing the pressure of the fluid to rise sufficiently inside the capsule before puncturing occurs: it is important to reach this pressure in order for the substance to be extracted and a good-quality beverage to be formed.
- the retaining wall is a thin film (or lid) able to be punctured. The retaining wall contributes to closing the chamber just like other elements forming the container for the substance to be extracted, such as a cup or other elements.
- the wall may be a film or a membrane.
- the opening means and the retaining wall are defined and arranged, one with respect to the other, in such a way that opening occurs in a determined pressure range, preferably at a given pressure corresponding to the optimum extraction pressure.
- the extraction pressure may vary from 4 to 8 bar, more preferably, of the order of 6 bar.
- the optimum pressure may vary according to the substances to be extracted.
- the capsule of the invention advantageously also has a means for the collection and outflow of the beverage.
- a means has the purpose of directing the stream or streams of beverage leaving the capsule towards the container, such as a mug, and of thus avoiding any contact with part of the system.
- the collection and outflow means preferably comprises a part of widened cross section covering the retaining part of the chamber followed by a part of narrowed cross section which concentrates the beverage into one or several favoured directions.
- the parts of widened and narrowed cross section may form one and the same continuous portion which flares from the retaining part towards one or more outlets of the capsule.
- Such a portion may, for example, be a cup portion of concave internal shape directed downwards, which end in at least one outlet hole.
- the closed chamber comprises two welded half-shells, symmetric or otherwise, and the means allowing opening is a rod arranged between the said shells, the said rod comprising at least one opening, preferably several openings, towards the top or at its upper end for the entry of water and, towards the bottom, or at its lower end, a shape allowing the weld of the two half-shells to be punctured as the said capsule is placed in its extraction device, the said shape also forming a filter.
- the rod preferably has a pointed shape.
- the extraction device may simply have a shower head for the arrival of water and a system allowing the rod to move inside the said capsule so as to open the capsule and thus allow the liquid to flow out into the mug arranged under the extraction device. It is necessary that there be a filter element in the pointed part of the rod so as to prevent the coffee grounds from passing into the mug.

- the disc will still have a sealing function and will comprise filtering means.
- the capsule comprises a cup with a rim and a bottom having an opening for the outflow of the beverage and a membrane welded to the periphery of the rim of the said cup and the means allowing opening is arranged in the bottom of the cup and is an element with puncturing means covered by a thin film, this thin film opening on the puncturing means at the time of extraction.
- the puncturing means also have a filter function.
- the element with the puncturing means remains fixed, and it is the thin film which deforms under pressure and opens on the aforementioned puncturing means.
- the capsule is of substantially circular cross section.
- the diameter of the means allowing the opening of the capsule is non-critical.

- the beverage flows into the container arranged under the capsule.
- the capsule comprises two welded half-shells containing the substance to be extracted, one having an opening for the outflow of the beverage, and the means allowing opening is arranged in the half-shell with the opening and consists of a disc with puncturing means covered by a thin film, the said thin film opening on the puncturing means at the time of extraction.
- the capsule comprises a cup and a disc welded to the periphery of the said cup, and having an opening for the outflow of the beverage and the capsule further comprises a means allowing opening comprising a thin film welded between the disc and the cup and raised elements on the disc collaborating at the time of extraction with the said thin film to allow the opening of the said thin film through the rise in pressure and allowing the beverage to flow out directly into the mug.
- the capsule in order to extract the capsule, it is necessary to have an extraction device comprising one or more sprinkling elements for the arrival of the water.
- the raised elements consist of an annular element around the entire periphery of the disc. In this last embodiment it is necessary for the disc always to be supported by a support element in order to allow the thin film to open.
- the thin film is sufficient, although if the substance is insoluble, it is necessary to provide, in the capsule, across the path taken by the beverage, such as under the thin film for example, a filter which will hold the said substance back.
- the material of the filter is chosen from the group consisting of filter paper, woven fibres and nonwoven fibres.
- the fibres may be made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) or PP (polypropylene) or some other polymer.
- each capsule comprises means for collecting and for the outflow of the beverage.

- FIG 1 clearly shows a half-shell (1) , the second half-shell, not depicted, is welded along the welding line (2) and thus closes the capsule (4).
- This capsule has a housing (3) in which the substance for extraction, for example roasted ground coffee lies.
- the rod (5) is arranged between the two symmetric half-shells.
- This rod is depicted in Figure 2 and in its upper part has holes (6) through which the hot water arrives for the preparation of the coffee.
- This rod further comprises, on its lower part, a pointed shape (7) for puncturing the weld of the two half-shells.
- the pointed part further comprises openings (8) to allow the coffee to pass through freely but to prevent the grounds from passing.
- FIG. 3 shows a capsule (9) in the second embodiment of the invention.
- This capsule comprises a cup (10) and a membrane_ (11) welded at a peripheral welding edge (13) forming the periphery of the said cup.
- the capsule contains a substance (12) .
- the system for opening the capsule consists of a disc (14) arranged in the bottom of the cup (10) and comprising a puncturing point (15) and a filter (60). The puncturing point is therefore enclosed in the chamber formed by the cup (10) and the membrane (11) .
- the disc is thus arranged at the bottom of the cup and thus forms a wider area over which the internal pressure may be spread during extraction.
- the capsule is introduced into the extraction device, water is introduced via a needle which punctures the membrane (11) , and under the effect of the rise in pressure in the capsule, the disc (14) experiences a downward thrust towards the retaining part (16) so that the point (15) punctures the retaining part (16) of the cup, thus allowing the beverage to flow out.
- the capsule is held firmly in place by virtue of the support (61) and the filter (60) prevents the coffee grounds from passing into the mug (not depicted) situated under the said capsule.
- FIG. 4 shows another embodiment. The difference from the preceding figure is simply that instead of arranging the opening system in the cup, it is arranged in the membrane.
- the capsule comprises a cup (17) and a membrane (18) welded to the periphery of the said cup at (62) .
- the substance to be extracted (19) is in the capsule.
- the disc (20) constituting the opening system has a puncturing point (21) and a filter (63) .
- the rise in pressure in the capsule means that the disc (20) experiences a downward thrust towards the retaining part (22) and the point (21) punctures the retaining part (22) of the membrane.
- the filter (63) allows the coffee grounds to be held back.
- FIG. 5 shows the capsule according to the invention in its fourth embodiment.
- This capsule comprises a cup
- the capsule contains a substance to be extracted (25) .
- the means allowing opening is arranged in a housing (27) at the bottom of the cup.
- This means consists of an element (28) with puncturing means covered by a thin film (29) .
- the puncturing means are points (64) directed towards the thin film.
- the water is introduced through the membrane and the rise in pressure will press the thin film (29) against the puncturing means so as to tear the said thin film and the beverage can thus flow out into a mug arranged beneath.
- the element (28) thus has a filter function and for this purpose has a number of holes (65) for the passage of the beverage.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 show the capsule according to the invention in an alternative form of its fourth embodiment.
- This capsule comprises a cup (66) and a membrane (67) welded along a peripheral welding edge
- the capsule contains a substance to be extracted (69) .
- the means allowing opening is arranged in a housing (70) at the bottom of the cup. This means consists of an element
- the opening means are points (73) distributed over the entire surface of the element (71) and directed towards the thin film (72) . These means may also be recessed and raised elements of a shape other than that of the points depicted. As in the preceding embodiments, the water is introduced via the membrane (67) and the rise in pressure will press the thin film (72) against the puncturing means in such a way as to tear the said thin film and the beverage can thus flow out into a mug arranged beneath.
- the element (71) also has a filter function for this purpose and comprises a number of channels (74) for the passage of the beverage.
- the channels (74) are present at the surface of the elements (71) and thus separate the points (73) to form a beverage distribution network.
- the beverage flows along the said channels and ends up at the periphery (75) of the element (71) where it flows to the inside
- the openings (77) allow the beverage to run into the mug (not depicted) arranged beneath.
- the bottom (66) of the cup and the openings (77) together form the beverage collection and outflow means.
- the openings (77) are preferably made through the edges of a re-entrant tubular part of the cup which is delimited at its base by a small internal peripheral channel. Such a configuration allows controlled and less sudden flow and avoids liquid splashing out of the service region.
- a four-component capsule the four components being the cup, the element with the opening means, the membrane and the thin film.
- the cup is fabricated by thermoforming and the disc is fabricated by injection moulding.
- FIG 8 shows a perspective view of the means allowing the opening of the capsule according to the fourth embodiment.
- This means (80) is an injection-moulded disc placed on the bottom of the cup. It comprises raised elements in the form of cone frustums (81) and spaces (82) between the said raised elements.
- the beverage flows along the spaces (82) towards the outside (83) of the disc.
- the disc is at the bottom of the cup of Figures 6 and 7: the beverage flows over the inside (76) of the bottom of the cup (66) .
- Figure 9 shows another embodiment of the means of opening the capsule.
- This is a disc (84) allowing the capsule to be opened.
- This disc (84) is an injection- moulded wafer placed on the bottom of the cup. It comprises raised elements in the form of pyramids (85) and spaces (86) between the said raised elements.
- the beverage flows along the spaces (86) towards the outside (87) of the disc. It is very easy to envisage the disc being at the bottom of the cup of Figures 6 and 7; the beverage flows out over the inside (76) of the bottom of the cup (66) .
- FIGS 10 and 11 show the capsule according to the invention in a fifth embodiment.
- This capsule comprises a cup (88) and a membrane (89) welded along the peripheral weld line (90) onto the periphery of the said cup.
- the capsule contains a substance to be extracted (91) .
- the means allowing opening is in the bottom of the cup.
- This means is in the form of raised elements (93) and recessed elements (94) forming the bottom of the said cup, the said means being covered by a thin film (92) .
- the water is introduced via the membrane (89) and the rise in pressure will press the thin film (92) against the raised and recessed elements so as to tear the said thin film and the beverage can thus flow out into a mug arranged beneath.
- the thin film (92) also has a filter function and the beverage flows in the recessed spaces
- This opening (95) allows the beverage to run into the mug (not depicted) arranged beneath.
- the cup is fabricated by thermoforming and makes it possible directly to obtain the means of opening the capsule, namely the raised and recessed elements.
- FIGs 12 and 13 simply give perspective detections from beneath and from above of the cup (88) of Figures 10 and 11.
- the central opening (95) allowing the beverage to flow out at the time of extraction is clearly visible.
- This cup is thermoformed in a single piece using an appropriate thermoforming device. Thereafter, the thin film is sealed onto the internal edges of the bottom of the cup, and the substance is filled, for example in an atmosphere of nitrogen or in some other atmosphere more or less free of oxygen and finally the membrane is sealed.
- FIG 14 schematically shows the capsule (100) according to the invention in its extraction system.
- the capsule is trapped in elements (101) and (102) of the extraction system.
- the element (101) allows water to arrive on the top of the capsule via the duct (103) and the needles (104) perforate the top of the capsule. Sealing is guaranteed by the seal (106) .
- the support element (102) holds the capsule in place and at the time of its opening beverage runs through the outlet (105) into the mug (not depicted) placed beneath.
- Figure 15 shows the capsule in its sixth embodiment.
- the difference lies in the position of the opening system which is positioned in a housing of the membrane instead of being in a housing of the cup.
- the capsule comprises a cup (30) onto which a membrane (31) is welded along a weld line (35) .
- the capsule contains a substance (36) .
- the opening system comprises an element (32) with puncturing means covered by a thin film (33) .
- the water is injected from the top of the cup and the rise in pressure inside the capsule presses the thin film
- Figure 16 shows a capsule with two symmetric half- shells (37, 38) welded along a weld line (39) and containing a substance to be extracted (42) .
