20140026761 | CAPSULES AND DISPENSING MACHINE - A capsule includes a deformable and/or compressible casing, provided with a base wall and a side wall defining a cavity that is open and suitable for containing an initial product to obtain a final food product. A supporting element is fixed to a first edge of the casing and facing the cavity and a nozzle is fixed to the supporting element and arranged for delivering a fluid into the cavity which interacts with the initial product to make the final product. The nozzle also opens the base wall and enables the final product to exit when the casing is compressed and crushed. | 01-30-2014 |
20150068405 | CAPSULE AND DISPENSING MACHINE FOR BEVERAGES - A capsule includes a first container provided with a first closed cavity containing a first product and a second container provided with a second closed cavity containing a second product. The first container and the second container include a first interface element facing the first cavity and a second interface element facing the second cavity, respectively. The first interface element is provided with a first connecting device having a first conduit and the second interface element is provided with a second connecting device having a second conduit. In an assembled configuration of the capsule, in which the first container is associated with the second container, the first connecting device is engaged with the second connecting device so as to couple the first conduit with the second conduit to make a flow connection between the first cavity and the second cavity and enable at least the first product to pass into the second cavity and join the second product to make a final product. | 03-12-2015 |
20150072052 | CAPSULE FOR BEVERAGE - A capsule includes a deformable and/or compressible casing that is provided with a base wall and with a side wall that define a cavity containing an initial product to be combined with a fluid to obtain a final product and with a nozzle provided with a plurality of openings for the passage of the fluid. The nozzle engages an outflow portion of the base wall and is arranged for exiting from the cavity through the outflow portion when the casing is compressed and/or crushed. The nozzle includes a first portion abutting on and sliding with interference inside the outflow portion in a sealed manner so that the final product exits the cavity at least initially only through at least one further opening of the nozzle. | 03-12-2015 |
20150151903 | Capsule For Beverage And Method For Manufacturing Said Capsule - A capsule for beverages includes a casing provided with a base wall and with a side wall defining a cavity that is suitable for containing an initial product to be combined with a fluid to obtain a final product in a dispensing machine into which the capsule is insertible; the casing includes a flange-shaped edge connected to the side wall and arranged for being clamped and compressed in a condition of use in the dispensing machine; the capsule includes a cover element that is fixed to the edge to seal hermetically the cavity and is made of yieldable and/or soft plastic material and such as to be deformed by and take on the shape of an abutting element of the dispensing machine when compressed, such as to sealingly engage the abutting element. | 06-04-2015 |
20150329282 | Capsule For Beverages - A capsule, including: a casing containing an initial product to be joined to a fluid for making a final product; a nozzle associated with the casing and having a longitudinal side wall and a first end provided with a first opening suitable to engage a fluid injecting arrangement of a brewing machine, said longitudinal side wall being provided with at least one outflow opening connected to the first opening through a first duct for dispensing said fluid in the cavity in a injecting step; and a mixing element rotatably coupled with the nozzle at the outflow opening and shaped in such a manner as to divert at least one jet of fluid coming from the outflow opening and be rotated by said jet around said nozzle so as to create inside said cavity a vortex flow of fluid and product. | 11-19-2015 |
20150344219 | Capsule For Beverages - A capsule, including: a deformable casing defining a cavity containing an initial product joined to a fluid for making a final product; a nozzle associated with the casing to inject the fluid of a brewing machine, the nozzle having a longitudinal side wall being provided with at least one outflow opening to the cavity, and the nozzle having an end wall provided with a second opening enabling the final product to exit from the cavity. | 12-03-2015 |
20150367269 | Method for Making a Filtering Element and Filtering Element - A method for making a filtering element from a film of non-woven material, the filtering element being associable with a container for containing and/or retaining a product, including hot pressing at least one defined portion of the film or of the filtering element so as to obtain a pressed portion in which fibres, in particular synthetic and/or plastic fibres, of at least one external surface layer of the non-woven material are compacted and pressed together and in which a thickness of the non-woven material is reduced by a percentage between 30 and 50%. | 12-24-2015 |
20160001903 | Method For Making A Capsule For Beverages And Capsule - A method for making a capsule usable in a brewing machine including the steps of: making a filtering element intended for containing the initial product and having at least one gripping portion; fixing the filtering element to a casing; filling the filtering element with a dose of the initial product; fixing a covering element to the casing to close hermetically inside the cavity the filtering element and the initial product; and reinforcing the gripping portion to enable a user grasping the latter to remove at least the filtering element from the casing after use. | 01-07-2016 |
