Embodiment Construction

[0033] Referring to the drawings, a filter cartridge for a machine for preparing a hot beverage, such as coffee, tea or orzo, is generally indicated at 100 .

[0034] The filter cartridge 100 is of the type suitable to be installed in a water tank, not shown in the figures, for containing the water used to prepare the beverage.

[0035] To this end, the filter cartridge 100 comprises a connecting element 5, corresponding to an associated seat, more generally a snap-in, preferably built in the bottom of said tank.

[0036] In this embodiment, the connecting element 5 is formed by a hexagonal section, which is connected in a detachable manner into a seat of complementary shape. Obviously, connection elements with different properties can also be provided, such as threaded or bayonet-type systems.

[0037] refer to figure 2 and 2A , The filter cartridge 100 includes an elongated housing 1 in which a filter material, such as ion exchange resin, is accommodated.

[0038] The f...

Abstract

A filter cartridge for a machine for the preparation of beverages comprises an outer housing extending predominantly axially to house filtering material, a connecting extremity to a reservoir of the machine, an inlet for the introduction of water which has to be filtered and an outlet for the discharge of filtered water. A tubular body is housed within the outer housing in such a way as to separate the inlet and the outlet in the vicinity of the connecting extremity and to define a filtration path which places the inlet and the outlet in communication. The filter cartridge further comprises a plurality of partition elements which extend radially from the tubular body towards the outer housing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a filter cartridge for a beverage preparation machine, adapted to be received in a water tank connected to a supply circuit of the beverage preparation machine, for treating the water in the water tank. Background technique [0002] In the prior art it is known to prepare coffee, and generally hot beverages, using machines provided with a water tank for containing the water required for the preparation of the beverage. Such water tanks are usually required in domestic machines in order to avoid connecting the machine to the water network and at the same time to ensure that the water volume is sufficient to obtain a suitable serving of coffee. It is also known to use filter systems with replaceable filter cartridges in coffee machines in order to improve the quality of the water in the water tank, for example by removing impurities in the water or softening the water. [0003] Typically, the cartridge filter is removably housed...
