Benefits of technology

The invention is a container that is easy to use and works well. The container may have a simple construction. The cutting and puncturing device may have a tube section with at least one outlet opening. This helps to improve the functionality of the device.

Problems solved by technology

This packaging has the disadvantage that the bottom outlet has to be opened by the connecting piece of the machine, so that the connecting piece comes into contact with the finished preparation.
This cartridge satisfies hygiene requirements, but the operability of the cartridge is not always ensured.
In addition, since the intermediate bottom has a multitude of openings, liquid may enter the space between the bottom wall and the intermediate bottom, which may lead to relatively quick reduction of the pressure on the intermediate bottom after the beginning of the introduction process, whereby the bottom wall cannot be pierced reliably any more.
This capsule, however, has the disadvantage that complicated built-in parts are required to separate the different chambers.

Embodiment Construction

[0049]In FIGS. 1 and 2 a container 10, which is, for example, used as a disposable container, is shown in two perspective views. The container 10 has a cover wall 40, a circumferential wall 30 and a bottom wall 50.

[0050]In the embodiment shown here, the cover wall 40 is formed by a foil 41 which is attached to an annular bead 32 of the circumferential wall 30.

[0051]The bottom wall 50 consists of a ring plate 52 and a centrally arranged foil 54. Both the cover wall 40 and the bottom wall 50, respectively the foil 54, have a piercable wall region 42, 56.

[0052]The bottom wall 50 is further provided with two annular ribs 60 and radial ribs 62, which are not displayed in the following figures for the sake of clarity, between the two annular ribs 60. These ribs may be completely dispensed with.

[0053]In FIG. 3, a vertical cross-section through the container 10 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is depicted. The interior space of the container 10 is partitioned into a first chamber 12 and a second, sma...

Abstract

A container having a top wall, which has at least one top wall region that can be perforated to form a feed opening for feeding a liquid; a bottom wall, which has at least one bottom wall region that can be perforated to form an outlet opening; and at least one chamber, which is surrounded by chamber walls and in which a base product and an adjustment element are located. The adjustment element is arranged such that it can be moved from an idle position to a working position and, when in the working position, opens at least one chamber wall. A chamber wall has at least one opening, on or in which a component of the adjustment element is detachably fastened when in the idle position. The component of the adjustment element closes the opening in the chamber wall.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to a container, comprising: a cover wall provided with at least one cover wall region which can be pierced to form a supply opening for introducing a liquid; a bottom wall provided with at least one bottom wall region which can be pierced to form an outlet opening; and at least one chamber surrounded by chamber walls, in which a basic product and an adjustment element are present, wherein the adjustment element is arranged so that it can be moved from a position of rest to an operating position, and in its operating position opens at least one chamber wall.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]In beverage machines, particularly in coffee makers, disposable containers or disposable packaging, for example in capsule form, are used, which are sealed using one or two foils and which contain, for example, coffee or other substances, such as flavourings, in powder or liquid form. These disposable containers are inserted into the beverage machin...
