Description
Container for matter to be extracted.
DESCRIPTION
The invention relates to a container for matter to be extracted, such as a powder or crumbs, comprising a container body having at least a space for receiving the matter, a closure body for closing the space of the container body, the container comprising at least an entrance side for supplying an extraction liquid to the space during use; as well as at least an exit side for discharging the extract from the space during use.
Containers of this type are known. They are offered for sale filled with for example coffee or tea and for preparing coffee or tea a machine specially constructed for these containers is to be employed. In the known container the closure body is made of aluminium foil and stuck or folded to the body.
When preparing a cup of coffee the closure body is perforated, so that the container is to be disposed after use. The disadvantage of the known container is that only a limited number of tastes determined by the manufacturer is available, which disadvantage is eliminated by the present container. An important additional advantage is that the container according to the invention can be re-used.
An advantageous embodiment of the container is characterised in that the closure body comprises a central portion provided with perforations.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention with which coffee particles are prevented from being present in the coffee is characterised in that a filter element is included in the central portion of the closure body.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterised in that two segments of the central portion are substantially completely provided with perforations. By not providing the complete central portion with perforations it takes slightly longer for the extract to be prepared, which considerably adds to the taste. Preferably, the two segments are positioned diagonally across from each other, so that the water is to transfer a larger distance on average. An optimal result is obtained by providing at least about 50% of the central portion with perforations.
In the machine constructed for the known containers the closure body rests against a wafer-shaped support which slightly tightens the aluminium foil. This tightening is not necessary and even undesired for a relatively rigid and
re-usable container, because this may lead to deformation of the closure body, which can detrimentally affect the lifespan. An advantageous embodiment of the container according to the invention in which this deformation does not occur is characterised in that the central portion forms a recess in the closure body.
In the machine constructed for the known containers the projecting edge is clamped between two annular clamping members made from a slightly resilient material. This clamping is carried out manually and takes some effort. To prevent an increase of required effort, a highly advantageous embodiment of the container is characterised in that a diameter of the closure body is smaller than a diameter of the projecting edge of the container.
In order to prevent a leak from occurring between the body and the closure body a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterised in that the closure body is provided with an edge which in a closed position is slid into the body of the container. As a result, the container can be provided with an extremely thin projecting perimeter edge, so that this projecting edge can be readily lifted between the two annular clamping members. Preferably, for realizing an even better sealing, the edge at least partly has a bulge and the body of the container at least partly has a recess, or the edge partly has a recess and the body at least partly has an edge. An additional advantage in this respect is that the chance is diminished that a filled container unintentionally opens up when handled.
A further highly advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterised in that the body of the container and the closure body are made of plastic, so that the re-usable container can be offered at an attractive price.
In the machine constructed for the known containers a top surface of the container is cut through by a plurality of knives during use to provide access to the hot water. A further advantageous embodiment of the container according to the invention is characterised in that the top surface is provided with an annular recess provided with openings. This avoids the container being damaged, which would shorten the lifespan, whereas nevertheless the hot water is given access to.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention which simplifies the placing of the container according to the invention into the machine constructed for the known containers is characterised in that the top surface accommodates a centring member.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention which
simplifies the handling of the container is characterised in that the closure body and the body of the container are connected by a hinge, which hinge is preferably made of plastic.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention which minimizes the chance of leakage is characterised in that the projecting edge has a first recess which at least partly accommodates the hinge in closed state.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention which can considerably simplify the opening of the container according to the invention is characterised in that the closure body is provided with a lip for opening the container in a simple manner. Preferably a length of the lip is selected such that in a closed state an end of the lip does not extend to beyond the projecting edge and the lip has a thickening at the end. To minimize the chance of leakage the projecting edge then has a second recess which at least partly accommodates the lip in closed state, in an alternative embodiment of the invention the projecting edge my partly have a straight configuration in the place of the lip to create space for a two-sided thickening.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention with which leakage along the projecting edge of the container can be avoided in a simple manner is characterised in that a side of the projecting edge facing away from the first and second recess is provided with an annular raised portion.
A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterised in that the inside of the closure body is at least partly smooth, which simplifies the rinsing of the filter.
The invention will now be further explained with reference to the following drawing figures, in which:
Figure 1A diagrammatically shows a container in opened state;
Figure 1 B diagrammatically shows the container in an existing coffee maker;
Figure 2A shows in greater detail the base of the container;
Figure 2B shows in greater detail the upper surface of the container;
Figure 3 gives a perspective view of an opened container;
Figure 4A shows in greater detail the base of an alternative container;
Figure 4B shows in greater detail the upper surface of this
alternative container;
Figure 4C shows in greater detail a side view of the lip.
Figure 1A diagrammaticaily shows a container in opened state, comprising a container body 1 shown in section which may be filled with for example coffee, and a closure body 2 shown in side view with which the container can be closed, with an annular protrusion 3 at an edge 4 fitting in an annular recess 5 in container body 1 and thus guarantees proper closing. The container is preferably made of a heat resistant plastic, such as polypropylene, and is manufactured for example by means of an injection moulding process. A top face 1b of the container body 1 is provided with a circle of holes 6 through which hot water can be pressed under high pressure and the closure body 2 comprises a filter 7 through which the coffee can pour out. Closure body 2 is connected to body 1 by means of a plastic hinge 8 in the form of a short connecting tape and across from the plastic hinge 8 there is a lip 9 with which closure body 2 can be lifted in a simple manner.
Figure 1B diagrammaticaily shows the container in an existing coffee maker, comprising a supply section 10 and a discharge section 11 between which a projecting edge 12 of the container can be clamped. In order to avoid leakage and to limit the force needed for clamping the container, the projecting edge 12 has an annular raised portion 13 which in fact forms an O-ring and fits over the edge of the supply section 10. Furthermore, the projecting edge 12 has a first recess 8a which accommodates plastic hinge 8 during the clamping action and has a second recess 9a which accommodates lip 9 during the clamping action.
Optionally, the projecting edge 12 may be provided with a sealing material 100 all around which may be for example a rubber edge. This rubber edge 100 functions as a sealing edge but at the same time as a protection layer against the clamping effect of the supply section 10 and the discharge section 11 when the container is placed with its projecting edge between these two clamping elements. An older embodiment of the known coffee makers had an annular clamping element provided with inter alia a rubber sealing, in a novel embodiment the supply sectionIO is provided with a roughened or milled closure face.
In order to avoid damage to the projecting edge of the re-usable container 1 as a result of the roughened or milled closure face of the novel embodiment, this projecting edge is provided with a rubber sealing.
Supply section 10 has a centring opening in which fits a centring
element 14 of the container in a state of use. The centring element 14 has a liquid dispersing function so that the water under high pressure is evenly distributed through the container body so as to realize optimum extraction of the coffee etc. contained in the container body. Furthermore, the supply section 10 comprises several knives which are originally intended for cutting openings into a disposable container. In the re-usable container according to the invention openings 6 are made in an annular recess 15 which accommodates the cutters in a state of use. Filter 7 comprises a cross-shaped support 16, a plastic gauze 17 and a support 19 provided with perforations 18. In a state of use a wafer-shaped support 20 which forms part of the discharge section 11 rests against the support 19 positioned at a deepened location in the closure body 2.
Figure 2A shows in greater detail the base of the container, with closure body 2 in which in deepened manner are visible the groups of perforations 18 arranged in two segments and support 19, as well as hinge 8 and lip 9 whose extremity is thickened so as to obtain a better grip, and projecting edge 12 of body 1.
Figure 2B shows in greater detail the top surface of the container with the projecting edge 12 provided with an annular raised portion 13, hinge 8 and lip 9, centring element 14 and recess 15 having holes 6.
Figure 3 gives a perspective view of an opened container, with body
1 provided with a projecting edge 12 an annular recess 5, hinge 8, closure body 2 with cross-shaped support 16 and gauze 17 through which are visible the groups of openings 18 arranged in two segments and support 19, as well as annular protrusion 3 and lip 9. At any rate between the cross-shaped support 16 the closure body 2 has a smooth finish to simplify its cleaning .
Figure 4A shows in greater detail the base of an alternative container which completely corresponds to the embodiment described with reference to figure 2, but whose projecting edge 12 is designed with a straight part 21 so that the end of lip 9 can be provided with a thickening on both sides, which considerably simplifies the loosening of the closure body 2.
Figure 4B shows in greater detail the top surface of this alternative container while it is visible that the upwards-pointing thickening of the lip 9 in the drawing figure actually forms part of annular raised portion 13.
Figure 4C shows in greater detail a side view of the lip with raised
portions 22a and 22b at the ends, where raised portion 22b in fact forms part of annular raised portion 13. Hypothetically speaking there may be a small leak between annular raised portion 13 and raised portion 22b, but in practice discharge section 11 turns out to be flexible enough to avoid leakage.
