Definitions
- the described invention presents, a breaking system applied in capsules for espresso machines, tea and other solubles, made of thermoplastic material, aluminum or its derivatives.
- An ordinary capsule is compound by a base cup and a cover or a buffering cup.
- the capsule cup presents a background that is totally closed, or a background pre drilled and subsequently buffered, but in the both cases the background is always drilled by the espresso machines punches where the capsule is applied; almost every capsules known in the market, have the mouth of the cup with peripheral flange outlet, that after the cup is filled with the coffee, serves as the front surface bonding tamponade, that usually is made with silver or aluminium foil, paper filter or micro perforated plastic more or less reinforced.
- this breaking system can be applied to a new capsule, manufactured in only one type of material, which then filled with a soluble product can be handled without the risk of rupture, which is hermetically sealed until being used by the consumer, which after application in any machine breaks down with the normal pressure of the water pump, in the bottom of the capsule cup to permit the entry of the water and on the other side of the cup cover to permit the exit of the dissolved product.
- This new breaking capsules system has the following characteristics that are above described, only by way of example and without limitation character.
- the base of the capsule cup (7 fig. 1 ) can be manufactured in thermoplastic or in a derivative material, or aluminium and a derivative material, may present in the exterior bottom (fig 5) a flap (10 fig 5), which is a slightly elevated peripheral circular crown, serving as abutment and seal of the bottom of the cup, in the area where the water comes out of the machine, being all the central surface (11 fig 5) that stays inside that circular crown, slightly recessed, fully closed and smooth; in that central surface (11 fig 5) and by the inside of the capsule cup, creases are applied, with a geometric straight or curved shape, which is joined at the center of the circle, and that are made to reduce the thickness of the material in the wall of the bottom cup (7); in the creases, the thickness of the bottom wall of the cup is formed into a thin film, capable of being thorn by the normal pressure of the water pump of the machine at the time that is turned on; the creases (1 ), are produced in the act of the moldage cup, applying to the mold that
- the bottom of the capsule cup (fig 7), doesn't present any pre drilling, and being fully gasketed at the base, keeps the coffee from the time of filling, in a controlled and non- oxidizing athmosphere, not requiring any additional sealing or packing in the exterior bottom of the cup, or the use of any other type of insulating material by the outside of the capsule cup, in the water injection zone.
- the construction of the capsule cup (7), with multiple raised ribs, that form rhombs filled with raised dots on the outside wall (5) increases the resistance of the cup wall (7) to the pressure of the water in the interior, adding more resistance to deformation or rupture by cracking; the angular raised ribs, used instead the purely smooth cylindrical structure of the walls of the traditional capsules, create a multi vector resistance of the filaments of the injected material, to the pressure caused by the entry of the water, allowing some deformation, but no cracking, resisting until the time of rupture or breakinf of the capsule to the exit of the infusion.
- This amounts or reinforcing plates (6) constitued by bodies of a higher thickness, are located in the interior of the wall of the cup, and are integral with the bottom of the cup, and therefore increase the strength and integrity of the capsule, when this one is being handled, by being introduced and extracted from the machine, and also has the purpose of avoiding that the capsules cup fits in each other, not only during the manufacturing and storage process, but also during the filling process avoiding automatism errors.
- the capsule cover (2) also is equipped with this new breaking system and also is made in the same material of the capsule cup, that is, made of thermoplastic material, aluminium or their derivatives, presenting in the external surface a peripheral circular crown (3) slightly higher that with others circular crowns with a reduce surface, with the same high and confined inside, covers all the entire area of the cup tab (9), and replace the traditional flat back flap and seal the outlet area of the infusion; the surface (4) that stays centered within the circular crowns, is slightly recessed, and in it are apllied the creases (1 ) of breaking, which in the cover (2), being likewise, constitued by straight lines or curves, can be in different quantity and sizes (1 fig 1 and 1 fig 3), to allowed rupture zones, that form lamellae in more or less quantity and in sizes and placements appropriated to the volumetric of the products that go fill the capsules; In the presentation of this invent, will be refer only two ways to apllied the creases (1 ) on the cover (2), one that keeps the same
- the capsules When the capsules are placed into the docking area of the espresso machines, are subject to a process of adjustment and sealing crushing of the ring or the circular crown (3), but the accomodation of the port capsules in the machines, allows some descentrality at the time of the adjustment, and that is why, the lap (8) of the cup (7) and the lap (9) of the cover (2) of this new capsule, being symmetric, when they unite for fitting, they both present a more large peripheral circular crown (3) and two or more crowns with less flat face surface, all embossed and capped by sunken alternating grooves, so the seal can always result complemented and complete, when the capsule is crushed and pressed against the wall of the mouth where the infusion gets out of the machine.
- This new capsule presents a rough texture by the outside of the wall (5) of the cup (7), being that texture, composed of thin filaments in relief to form geometric designs which are also made in multiple raised points, produced by the molding during the manufacturing.
- Figure 1 Open capsule with the cover in expansion, being the breaking syste of the bottom of the cup (7) and from the cover (2) composed by an equal number of creases (1 ) applied to form the same geometric design;
- Figure 2 Capsule from the figure 1 with the cover applied;
- Figure 3 Open capsule, with the cup (7) and cover (2) projected in expansion, presenting the breaking system of the bottom of the cup (7), creases (1 ) in diferent quantity from the creases presented in the cover (2), presenting in the cover more creases quantity (1 ) and with them positioned differently, to cause smaller rupture zones and tearing the lamellae in different directions;
- Figure 4 Capsule from the figure 3 with the cover applied;
- Figure 5 External inferior view from the cup (7) of the capsule.
