Description

DISPOSITIF D'EXTRACTION ET CAPSULE POUR LA PREPARATION EXTRACTION DEVICE AND CAPSULE FOR PREPARATION

D'UNE BOISSONA BEVERAGE

Domaine de l'inventionField of the invention

La présente invention se situe dans le domaine de la préparation de boissons, p. ex. à base de café, par extraction d'une dose concentrée, p. ex. de café moulu, contenue dans une capsule. Elle se rapporte plus particulièrement aux doses utilisées à cet effet ainsi qu'aux dispositifs utilisant de telles doses.The present invention is in the field of the preparation of drinks, e.g. ex. based on coffee, by extraction of a concentrated dose, e.g. ex. ground coffee, contained in a capsule. It relates more particularly to the doses used for this purpose as well as devices using such doses.

Etat de la technique Des capsules et des machines fonctionnant selon le principe précité existent depuis de nombreuses décennies.State of the art Capsules and machines operating according to the aforementioned principle have existed for many decades.

Les brevets US 2 899 886, US 2 968 560, US 3 403 617 et US 3 607 297 décrivent des dispositifs où la capsule est initialement perforée en plusieurs endroits, puis traversée par de l'eau sous pression.US Pat. Nos. 2,899,886, US 2,968,560, US 3,403,617 and US 3,607,297 disclose devices in which the capsule is initially perforated in a plurality of locations and then passed through water under pressure.

La capsule décrite dans le brevet CH 605 293 ou dans le brevet EP 0 242 556 B1 comporte une membrane dans sa partie inférieure. De l'eau sous pression est initialement introduite dans la partie supérieure de la capsule, ce qui entraîne un gonflement de la capsule, principalement au niveau de la membrane. A partir d'une certaine pression, la membrane se déchire, autorisant de la sorte l'écoulement d'un mélange eau-café.The capsule described in patent CH 605 293 or in patent EP 0 242 556 B1 comprises a membrane in its lower part. Water under pressure is initially introduced into the upper part of the capsule, which causes swelling of the capsule, mainly at the level of the membrane. From a certain pressure, the membrane tears, thus allowing the flow of a water-coffee mixture.

D'autres capsules munies d'une membrane sont décrites dans les documents brevets suivants : EP 0 468 079 A, EP 0 806 373 A, EP 0 554 469 A.Other capsules provided with a membrane are described in the following patent documents: EP 0 468 079 A, EP 0 806 373 A, EP 0 554 469 A.

Dans les ensembles capsule-dispositif de l'état de la technique décrit ci-dessus, on observe des fuites de liquide au niveau de la région qui se situe entre la partie inférieure de la cage de capsule et le rebord de la capsule. La demande de brevet français FR 2 617 389 présente une première amélioration de ce problème en proposant un ensemble capsule-dispositif dont la partie inférieure de la cage de capsule peut partiellement s'incruster dans le rebord. Exposé général de l'inventionIn the capsule-device assemblies of the state of the art described above, leakage of liquid is observed at the region which lies between the lower part of the capsule cage and the rim of the capsule. The French patent application FR 2,617,389 presents a first improvement of this problem by proposing a capsule-device assembly whose lower part of the capsule cage can partially become embedded in the rim. General presentation of the invention

Un des objectifs de la présente invention réside dans une amélioration de la conservation des capsules.One of the objectives of the present invention resides in an improvement in the preservation of the capsules.

Un autre objectif vise à minimiser le risque de délaminage accidentel entre la membrane et le rebord pendant que la capsule est stockée.Another objective is to minimize the risk of accidental delamination between the membrane and the rim while the capsule is stored.

Un autre objectif de la présente invention vise à simplifier la production de capsules.Another object of the present invention is to simplify the production of capsules.

Ces objectifs sont réalisés avec la capsule telle que définie dans les revendications.These objectives are achieved with the capsule as defined in the claims.

Un autre objectif de la présente invention vise à améliorer l'étanchéité des ensembles capsule-dispositif au niveau de la région qui se situe entre la partie inférieure de la cage de capsule et le rebord.Another object of the present invention is to improve the sealing of capsule-device assemblies at the region between the lower portion of the capsule cage and the rim.

Cet objectif, en particulier, est réalisé avec le dispositif tel que défini dans les revendications.This objective, in particular, is achieved with the device as defined in the claims.

A relever en particulier que l'incrustation de la cage dans le rebord, notamment lorsque la partie inférieure de celle-ci est biseautée comme indiqué sur la figure 5, a pour effet de déplacer une portion de matière du rebord vers l'extérieur. De la sorte, l'étanchéité de l'interface rebord-cage est améliorée.Note in particular that the incrustation of the cage in the rim, especially when the lower portion thereof is tapered as shown in Figure 5, has the effect of moving a portion of material of the rim outwardly. In this way, the sealing of the rim-cage interface is improved.

N'importe quel matériau peut être utilisé pour la paroi latérale et le rebord, sous réserve que ce dernier soit suffisamment mou pour qu'une partie de la cage de capsule s'y incruste.Any material can be used for the side wall and the rim, provided that the latter is soft enough for a portion of the capsule cage to be embedded therein.

Avantageusement on utilise un matériau biodégradableAdvantageously, a biodegradable material is used

L'invention est décrite plus en détail ci-après au moyen d'exemples illustrés par les figures suivantes :The invention is described in more detail below by means of examples illustrated by the following figures:

La figure 1 illustre une capsule pendant sa durée de stockage. La figure 2 illustre la capsule de la figure 1 mais lorsque des contraintes trop fortes sont exercées sur la membrane.Figure 1 illustrates a capsule during its storage period. FIG. 2 illustrates the capsule of FIG. 1 but when excessive stresses are exerted on the membrane.

Les figures 3 à 6 montrent les modifications successives de l'interface rebord- membrane lorsqu'une pression trop forte est générée à l'intérieur de la capsule. Les figures 7 à 10 illustrent d'autres variantes de la capsule selon l'invention.Figures 3 to 6 show the successive modifications of the diaphragm-membrane interface when a too strong pressure is generated inside the capsule. Figures 7 to 10 illustrate other variants of the capsule according to the invention.

7. Evidement7. Of course

L'évidement fait office d'espace-tampon/fusible de sécurité pendant la durée de stockage des capsules. La membrane est initialement collée sur toute la face inférieure du rebord mais lorsqu'une force ou une pression s'exerce de façon trop forte sur la membrane, p. ex. lors du dégazage du café, un effet de coin se produit entre la première portion du rebord 5 et la membrane (FIG 7 à 10), ce qui permet de retenir la membrane au niveau de la première portion 5. Si l'intensité de la force ou de la pression qui s'exerce sur la membrane n'est pas trop élevée, la membrane reste fixée sur toute la face inférieure du rebord 3, mais à partir d'une certaine intensité, la membrane se décolle au niveau de l'évidement. Le volume total intérieur de la capsule est donc augmenté, ce qui a pour effet de réduire la pression dans la capsule, et ainsi de diminuer les contraintes sur la membrane. Ce mécanisme de sécurité offre en particulier l'avantage d'assurer une meilleure et plus longue conservation des capsules pendant leur période de stockage.The recess acts as a buffer space / safety fuse during the storage period of the capsules. The membrane is initially adhered to the entire underside of the rim but when a force or pressure is exerted too heavily on the membrane, e.g. ex. during the degassing of the coffee, a wedge effect occurs between the first portion of the rim 5 and the membrane (FIGS. 7 to 10), which makes it possible to retain the membrane at the level of the first portion 5. If the intensity of the force or pressure exerted on the membrane is not too high, the membrane remains fixed on the entire underside of the rim 3, but from a certain intensity, the membrane is detached at the level of the recess. The total internal volume of the capsule is thus increased, which has the effect of reducing the pressure in the capsule, and thus reducing the stress on the membrane. This safety mechanism offers the particular advantage of ensuring a better and longer shelf life of the capsules during their storage period.

La figure 1 1 illustre un ensemble capsule-dispositif selon l'invention en position inactive, càd lorsque l'ensemble cage-support de capsule est ouvert.FIG. 11 illustrates a capsule-device assembly according to the invention in an inactive position, ie when the cage-capsule support assembly is open.
