Embodiment Construction

[0031] The capsule is generally shown as a truncated cone, along the X-axis ( Figure 12 b) Symmetrical and having a smaller base 2 and a larger base 3 with an outwardly protruding annular edge 4 at the larger base 3 .

[0032] Below, when capsule 1 is in Figure 12 When the position shown in a (that is, the X axis is vertical), we think that the capsule is placed horizontally, and when the capsule is in Figure 12 At the side view position of b (ie, the X-axis is horizontal), we consider the capsule to be placed vertically.

[0033] Of course, the shape of capsule 1 can be compared with Figure 12 The shapes shown in a-c are different and may for example be cylindrical, which is usually not perfectly regular for purposes as will be seen below.

[0034] In the following, in this specification, the capsule 10 will be referred to as an irregular shape to indicate that when placed vertically, i.e. when the X-axis is horizontal, the capsule 10 can only enter a seat of the same ...

Abstract

Device (100) for distributing capsules with axial symmetry and irregular shape, comprising a container (10) apt to receive in bulk a plurality of capsules (1); - an ordering assembly placed inside said container (10), apt to arrange said capsules (1) vertically; - an orientating assembly, apt to receive the capsules (1) from said ordering assembly and to orientate them in a predetermined direction; - a conveying assembly apt to receive the capsules (1) from said orientating assembly and to convey them towards a distribution outlet in a predetermined orientation.

Description

technical field [0001] It is an object of the present invention to provide a bulk capsule dispensing device. [0002] More particularly, but not exclusively, the device according to the invention may be used for the precise insertion of capsules of eg coffee or other products into dispensing units of machines for producing beverages. Background technique [0003] Below we will mainly discuss coffee capsules, but obviously the concept of the present invention is applicable to any type of capsule. [0004] Capsule dispensing devices currently exist in which the capsules are placed in an orderly manner and the user can take one capsule at a time to place it in the dispensing unit of the beverage production machine. [0005] These dispensing devices with capsules are placed in an ordered manner and can optionally be fed directly to the dispensing unit of the coffee machine. [0006] There are also bulk capsule dispensing units. [0007] WO 2004 / 045350 A1 discloses a device fo...
