Abstract

The invention relates to a sealed cartridge which is intended to be extracted under pressure and which contains a substance (3) for the preparation of a beverage, comprising a cup (2) with an upper face, a substantially frusto-conical lateral wall and a lower face (4) larger in diameter than the upper face, in which the lower face is a cover welded to the periphery of the lower lip of the cup and is made of a flexible material impermeable to oxygen selected from the group consisting of aluminium, an aluminium/plastic composite, an aluminium/plastic/paper composite, a pure plastic or a multilayer plastic.

Description

~ ~ 6 ~ .3 This invention relates to a sealed cartridge which is designed to be extracted under pressure and which contains a substance for the preparation of a beverage, comprising a cup with a base and a substantially frustoconical lateral wall and a circular lip larger in diameter than the base.
GB-PS 938,617 describes a cartridge with an internal filter forming two compartments and intended to be extrac-ted by a system which pierces its lower and upper faces before extraction. The disadvantage of this cartridge is that, due to the thickness of the faces, it necessitates the use of a relatively dangerous piercing system which ensures neither perfect cleanness during the extraction nor easy release on completion of extraction.
There are several reas~ns for the use of capsules ~or the preparation of a beverage, above all in the field of espresso type cof~ees extracted under pressure, namely:
hygiene, optimal keeping of the co~Pee, ease of use, better control of the quality of the coffee obtained and good reproducibility of the extraction conditions. Among the large number of available capsules, only sealed capsules which open under the effect of the injected water pressure really satisfy the requirements mentioned above. Capsules of this type are distinguished by their opening system.
The capsules according to C~ 605 293 have we~kene~
zones which tear preferentially under the effect of pres-sure. This solution has the disadvantage of increasing the complexity and price of the capsule because the mate:rials used have to be treated very precisely if ~pening o~E the capsule i~ to be correct and reproducible.
The cartridge according to the present invention is far lower in price, considerably easier to ~anufacture and may be used for the preparation of a beverage, particularly espresso cof~ee, i.e. in which the coffee is extracted under a pressure of 1 to 15 bar.

~$7$~.i The present invention relates to a sealed cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1, comprising a cover welded to the periphery of the lip of the cup, the cover consisting of a flexible material impe.rmeable to oxygen S selected from the group consisting of aluminium, an alumin-ium/plastic composite, an aluminium/plastic/paper com-posite, pure plastic or multilayer plastic and the cover or the base being intende~ to tear solely under the effect of the pressure of the extraction fluid at the beginning of the extrartion process. Tha advantaqe o~ this cartridge is that it does not have a filter or a weakened zone in the strict sense.
The cartridge according to the invention may ~e extracted by the process and with the system according to European patent application 91 107 462.3. The extraction system according to this patent application enables this simplified capsule to be extracted under good conditions.
To extract the capsule, it is either the cover or the base of the cup which is torn under the effect of the extraction fluid. If it is the cover, the base of the cup is first op~ned by the water injector during introduction o~ the cartridge into the extraction system and the cover is torn therein during the i~crease in pressure and, after use, the cartridge can be removed easily and intact with a ~;ni of waste co~fee grounds or packaging material.
The cover is normally welded to the periphery of the cup by heat sealing, the parts to be welded comprising a welding lacquer on their opposite faces. The lower l:ip o~
the cup may also be folded back onto t~e cover for crimp-ing. Welding either on its own or in conjunction withcrimping gives a cartridge which is capable of withstanding pressures of up to 15 bar during the extraction proce~s.
The cartridge is ~illed with a substance for the preparation of a beverage. This substance is preferably roasted and ground coffee, but may also be tea, soluble : ' - ~;

~ ~ ~ r~

coffee, a mixture oP ground coffee and soluble coffee, a chocolate-bassd product or any other dehydrated edible substance.
The cup i5 a frustoconical, hemispherical or frusto-pyramidal element. The base of the cup does not neces-sarily have to be flat, but may also assume the above-mentioned geometries.
The main part of the capsule, namely the cup which may be frustoconical in shape and semirigid, may be made of 10 aluminium between 20 and lOO ~m thick, pure pla~tic or multilayer pla~tic, optionally with an oxygen barrier layer, such as EVOH or PVDC, a multilayer film, such as cardboard~aluminium/plastic or cardboard~plastic optionally with an oxygen barrier layer, uch as E~OH of PVDC.
The flexible cover of the capsule may be made of aluminium 15 to 60 ~m thick or of a multilayer ~il~ com-prising either 20 to 60 g/m2 paper, plastic, such as 20 to 60 ~m thick polyethylene, and 5 to 2Q ~m thick aluminium or EVOH or P~DC 5 to 30 ~m thick and plastic (PP, PE, P~) 20 20 to 100 ~m thick or PET ~5 to 30 ~m) and plastic (PP, ~E) 20 to 100 ~m ~hiak or metallized PET or PET provided with an upper barrier layer, such as SiO2. A multilayer combina-tion of paper and aluminiu~ may also be used.
Of these materials, aluminium tears the most easily 25 and cleanly; where a multilayer film is used, the presence of the paper fibres and the stretching of the plastic layer enable a network ~o be formed at the location of the tears which is favourable for keeping the base of the capsule intact and reducing the dispersion of the coffee grounds 30 while, at the same time, ensuring homogeneous extraction of the layer of coffee.
To prevent coffee grounds from being dispersed on the flow grill, an additional layer based on filter paper or woven or non-woven fibres hased on PET or PP is provided.
35 In one configuration, this layer may be arranged between ~ ~ 6 ~

the body of the capsule and the cover and may be bonded or welded to those two elements. This material may have a density of 20 to 50 g/m2. In another configuration of the capsule, the layer o~ filter paper or woven or nonwoven fibres may be arranged on the outside o~ the capsule and bonded or welded to the cover.
The cartridge according to the invention may vary in size according to the volume of coffee to be prepared. The coffee dose may vary from 5 to 20 g, the diameter of the cartridge is between 2.5 and 6 rm and the thickness of the coffee layer is between 10 and 25 mm.
The invention is described in more detail in the ~ollowing with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
~igure 1 diagrammatically illustrates the cartridge according to the invention.
Figure 2 diagrammatically illustrates a second embodi-ment.
Figure 3 diagrammatically illustrates a third embodi-ment.
The cartri~ge ~1) compri~es a cup ~2) with a base (5~
and a frustoconical l~teral wall (6)~ The cup is made of 50 ~m thick aluminium. The cartridge contains roasted coffee (3) a~d i5 closed by a cover (4~ of aluminium~paper r~ ~o~ite. The cover is welded to the periphery (7) oE the lip of the cup.
The cartridge (8) in Fig. 2 comprises a cup 12) identical with that shown in Fig. 1 except that the lip (9) o~ the cup is wider and can thus be folded back, i.e.
crimped onto the periphery of the cover (4)~ The material used is the same as in Fig. 1.
The cartridge (30) in Fig. 3 comprises on the cover (4) a paper filter (31) which is welded to th~ periphery of the cover and to the periphery o~ the cup (2)0 The cartridge according to the invention is of the .

type which opens under the effect of pressure, but is simpler and more economical than known cartridges in terms of design and production.
