Abstract: The invention pertains to the field of the beverage preparation machines having an ingredient processing module for preparing a beverage with at least one ingredient supplied with a capsule. The machine comprises a positioner arranged to hold at least one capsule out of the ingredient processing module. It further comprises a sensing arrangement adapted to detect an event related to the insertion by a user of a capsule and/or the presence of the capsule on or into the positioner. The machine is configured, upon detection of the event, to transfer the capsule to the ingredient processing module by using transfer means, and then to start the preparation of the beverage. More particularly, the invention relates to a machine providing a convenient and safe solution to fully automate the preparation of a beverage.

Abstract: A cartridge dispenser (1) has: a receptacle (10) delimiting a cavity (10′) for storing cartridges (2); a cartridge outlet (11) for dispensing a single cartridge at a time from said cartridges (2), the single cartridge being dispensed in a predetermined cartridge dispensing orientation; and a cartridge transfer device (12,13,14) for transferring cartridges (2) from the cavity (10′) to the cartridge outlet (11). The cavity (10′) is so dimensioned that cartridges (2) can be stored in bulk therein at random capsule orientations. The transfer device comprises a delivery conveyor that is configured to displace cartridges from the bulk of cartridges towards the outlet and to deliver the cartridges (2) to the outlet (11) via an orientation-discrimination passage (15) which ensures that the cartridges (2) are delivered one at the time to the outlet (11) and that each cartridge (2,2a) that is delivered to the outlet (11) is in the predetermined orientation at the outlet (11).

Abstract: A system comprising: - a capsule-based beverage producing device, and - a capsule for containing beverage ingredients, wherein the beverage production device (2) is provided with: - means for injecting a liquid into the capsule (1) - means for draining a beverage from the capsule (1), and - an enclosing member (9) transferable from an opened state to a defined closed state, in which the enclosing member (9) enclose the outer surface of the capsule (1). A sealing member (8, 11, 26) is associated to the capsule (1), the sealing member (8, 11, 26) being compressible when engaged by the enclosing member (9) in the closed state and the sealing member being effective to compensate for the clearance between the enclosing member and the capsule (1); which clearance would exist without the sealing member of the capsule (1),when the enclosing member (9) is in its defined closed position.

Abstract: Beverage machine with a beverage brewing unit (1) for receiving a single-serve capsule (9) comprising:a capsule holding assembly (3) for holding a capsule in a position during insertion by gravity of the capsule in the brewing unit; anda water injection assembly (2) for at least partially enclosing the capsule and providing water in the capsule. The capsule holding part forms a front part of the unit and is mounted to the capsule injection assembly in a manner to be displaceable along a substantially horizontal path whereas the water injection assembly is a rear fixed part of the unit.The beverage machine has an outermost casing (80). One of these brewing unit assemblies (2,3) can be movedor telescoped out or through this casing for inserting/removing the ingredient capsule andretracted into the outermost casing for bringing the brewing unit into its capsule extraction configuration.
