Definitions

  • This invention relates to a horizontal unit for making beverages using capsules containing powdered food substances.
  • the units with a horizontal axis for which this invention is preferably intended are devices which use water to extract the powdered substance and which comprise a first part and a second part, at least one of which is mobile relative to the other along a horizontal line, between an operating position in which the two parts are coupled and between them form an extraction chamber in which the capsule can be retained, and a capsule insertion position in which they are distanced and allow a capsule to be inserted in the unit.
  • the capsule in the insertion position, the capsule can be inserted using gravity from above until it reaches retaining means constituted of two converging lateral elements, which can then be spread apart during the unit closing step, to release the capsule in the housing.
  • water injection means and beverage collection means operatively associated with the chamber for, respectively, sending water into the capsule contained in the chamber and collecting a beverage coming out of the capsule (if necessary, piercing the lid and/or the bottom of the capsule).
  • Ejection means for ejecting the capsule are usually associated with the extraction chamber. Said ejection means expel the capsule when the unit is opened after an extraction, and the first part and the second part move from the operating position to the insertion position.
  • the ejection means comprise an elastically operated pusher positioned at the extraction chamber. It is usually an annular portion operated by a helical spring which is compressed by the capsule during unit closing, and which extends during unit opening.
  • the ejection means are constituted of the retaining means which during the unit opening step hook onto the upper flange of the capsule to remove the capsule from the extraction chamber. Obviously, in order to make it possible for the ejection means to hook onto the flange, part of the flange must project laterally relative to the first part.
  • the first embodiment of ejection means described above is unable to guarantee ejection under all conditions. Since the ejection thrust is guaranteed only by the spring, ejection may not occur every time that the force applied by the spring is insufficient to move the capsule (for example, if the capsule is jammed in the chamber).
  • the force applied is a force generated directly by the mechanical movement system of the first part and/or the second part, if the capsule is jammed and the flange is not rigid enough it is possible that the flange may bend without the capsule coming out of the chamber.
  • the technical purpose which forms the basis of this invention is to provide a horizontal unit for making beverages using capsules containing powdered food substances which overcomes the above- mentioned disadvantages.
  • the technical purpose of this invention is to provide a horizontal unit for making beverages using capsules containing powdered food substances which always guarantees ejection of the capsule from the extraction chamber after unit opening.
  • the technical purpose specified and the aims indicated are substantially achieved by a horizontal unit for making beverages using capsules containing powdered food substances as described in the appended claims. Further features and the advantages of this invention are more apparent in the detailed description below, with reference to several preferred, non- limiting embodiments of a horizontal unit for making beverages using capsules containing powdered food substances, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:

  • Figure 3 shows the unit of Figure 2 in an open configuration with a capsule inserted before supplying
  • FIG. 4 is a section of the unit of Figure 3 according to the line IV - IV of Figure 9;
  • Figure 5 shows the unit of Figure 3 in a subsequent intermediate configuration during closing

Mounted on the structure are at least a first part 4 forming a housing 5 for receiving a capsule 2 containing a powdered food substance to be extracted, and a second part 6 mounted on the supporting structure 3 and shaped like an element for closing the housing 5. It should be noticed that in the preferred embodiment the housing 5 is sized in such a way that it can almost completely receive the capsule 2. In fact, only a radial annular flange 7 of the capsule 2 remains outside the housing 5 ( Figures 2 and 14).

  • the axial line is positioned substantially horizontally.
  • the first part 4 is fixed relative to the supporting structure 3, whilst the second part 6 moves relative to the supporting structure 3 and relative to the first part 4.

  • the retaining means 24 in general, and in the known way, are switchable between a first configuration in which they can retain a capsule 2 (which can reach them thanks to the effect of gravity), and a second configuration in which they cannot retain a capsule 2.
  • the retaining means 24 comprise two opposite guide elements 27, each forming a seat 28 facing towards the seat 28 of the other guide element 27, and designed to house a portion of the capsule 2.
  • each seat 28 is constituted of a channel extending mainly vertically, the lower part of it converging towards the other seat 28, and in which the radial annular flange 7 of the capsule 2 can be inserted (Figure 4).
  • the guide elements 27 are mobile between the first configuration and the second configuration, and vice versa, by means of a movement respectively away from and towards one another (at least partly) in a divarication plane substantially orthogonal to the axial line (and therefore, in use, vertical).
  • the guide elements 27 are also at least partly further apart than when they are in the first configuration.
  • the retaining means 24 move with the second part 6, for inserting the capsule 2 in the housing 5 and subsequently leaving it free before the first part 4 and the second part 6 reach the operating position.
  • the retaining means 24 advantageously remain in the first configuration at least until the capsule 2 is at least mainly inserted in the housing 5, after which they pass to the second configuration.
  • each guide element 27 is slidably associated with the second part 6 along a divarication line which lies in the divarication plane and which, in use, is substantially horizontal, and the retaining means 24 also comprise first elastic means 29 mounted between each guide element 27 and the second part 6 for pushing the guide element 27 towards the first configuration.
  • each guide element 27 comprises at least one follower foot 30 (advantageously two, one upper and one lower) slidably coupled to a sliding track 31 which is in turn fixed relative to the first part 4 (and which is therefore stationary in the embodiment illustrated).
  • the movement of the first part 4 and/or of the second part 6 between the operating position and the insertion position causes the relative sliding of the follower foot 30 and the sliding track 31.
  • the sliding track 31 is also cam-shaped to cause the passage of the related guide element 27 from the first configuration to the second configuration and vice versa respectively after the movement of the first part 4 and/or the second part 6 from the insertion position to the operating position and vice versa.

  • each sliding track 31 is substantially shaped to match the follower foot 30, so as to guide it in the best possible way.
  • each sliding track 31 may advantageously comprise an enlargement 35 at its end located on the distal stretch 32 (where the follower foot 30 is positioned when the first part 4 and the second part 6 are in the insertion position).
  • the two guide elements 27 can be manually spread apart to unload the capsule 2 from the unit 1 without having to close and re-open the unit 1 (it may be sufficient to press on the capsule 2 from above to spread apart the guide elements 27).
  • the horizontal unit 1 also comprises ejection means 36 for ejecting the capsule 2 from the housing 5, which act when the first part 4 and the second part 6 move from the operating position to the insertion position, and which are separate from the retaining means 24.

  • the pusher 37 is mobile between a first position in which the head 38 allows the insertion of a capsule 2 in the housing 5 and a second position in which the head 38 prevents the insertion of a capsule 2 in the housing 5.
  • the head 38 in use causes the capsule 2 to be ejected from the housing 5, since when it is in the first position it occupies a space inside the housing 5 where the capsule 2 is located with the chamber 8 closed and advantageously keeps the centre of gravity of the capsule 2 outside the housing 5.
  • the movement of the pusher 37 is guaranteed by at least one actuator element 40 which is fixed to the second part 6 and can be coupled to the actuator portion 39 at least during part of the movement of the first part 4 and/or the second part 6 from the operating position to the insertion position.
  • the actuator element 40 moves the pusher 37 from the first position to the second position to eject the capsule 2 contained in the chamber 8.

  • the actuator element 40 in the first stretch is uncoupled from the actuator portion 39 and moves relative to the actuator portion 39, in the intermediate position it couples to the actuator portion 39 of the pusher 37 positioned in the first position, and in the second stretch it moves the pusher 37 from the first position to the second position.
  • the actuator element 40 rests against the actuator portion 39 and pushes it towards its second position.
  • the movement of the first part 4 and/or the second part 6 from the insertion position to the operating position advantageously takes place along an opposite trajectory to the movement from the operating position to the insertion position, instead initially travelling along the second stretch and then the first stretch.
  • the actuator element 40 in the second stretch is advantageously coupled to the actuator portion 39 and moves the pusher 37 from the second position to the first position, whilst in the subsequent first stretch it is uncoupled from the actuator portion 39 and moves relative to the actuator portion 39.
  • the actuator element 40 and the actuator portion 39 comprise one a magnet 41 and the other a ferromagnetic element 42, which are positioned in such a way that the magnet 41 can retain the ferromagnetic element 42 when the actuator element 40 is in contact with the pusher 37.
  • the actuator element 40 pulls the pusher 37 thanks to the magnetic attraction applied by the magnet 41 to the ferromagnetic element 42.
  • that pulling stops in the first stretch since at the intermediate position the actuator portion 39 reaches its end of stroke and the subsequent movement relative to the actuator element 40 causes uncoupling of the magnet 41 from the ferromagnetic element 42 ( Figure 10).
