Embodiment Construction

[0018] Referring to the drawings, the reference numeral 1 designates in its entirety a container for making a beverage according to the invention.

[0019] Like the containers of the prior art, the container according to the invention also contains powdered food (not shown in the figures), which allows a drink to be made by passing hot water through it. Depending on requirements, the powdered food may be a water soluble substance, thus intended to come out of the container 1 with the prepared water, or it may be a substance (such as coffee powder) designed to allow the manufacture of a drink by extraction.

[0020] The container 1 comprises a cup-shaped containment body 2 which is closed at the top by a closure element 3 . Advantageously, the containment body 2, the closure element 3 and their connection to each other (usually by sealing or gluing) are produced in such a way that it is guaranteed that the container 1 is hermetically sealed at least with respect to the passage ...

Abstract

A capsule for making beverages comprises a cup-shaped containment body (2) in turn comprising a tubular lateral wall (5) and a bottom portion (6) and forming inside it a containment chamber (4) which contains a powdered food substance; a closing element (3) is fixed to the containment body (2) to close it. The bottom portion (6) comprises a bowl-shaped first sheet made of a first material having a resistance to piercing and tearing which is less than that of a second material constituting the tubular lateral wall (5), and comprises a central zone (9) extending transversally to the central axis and a connecting wall (10) which is connected to the central zone (9) and which comprises at least one component of extension parallel with the central axis, the connecting wall (10) being connected to the tubular lateral wall (5) at the first edge (7).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a container for making a drink, in particular a container comprising a powdered food inside it, which allows the drink to be made by passing hot water through the powdered food. [0002] In particular, the invention can be applied in both cases: where the container contains a substance intended to allow the beverage to be made after the substance has been practically completely dissolved in hot water; and where the container contains a substance intended to allow the beverage to be made by extraction in the case of powdered foods such as coffee powder. [0003] In more detail, the present invention relates to the definition of a new type of container, which can be advantageously used in coffee machines of the system currently widespread on the market, wherein the container of the coffee machine is currently closed at the top by a less resistant aluminum sheet Cupped aluminum body construction. The coffee machine used in...
