摘要:
The present invention relates to an electic coffee machine and a filter element (1) therefor. The coffee machine includes a filter element (1) for taking up ground coffee (12) that is supported by a filter housing. A brewing head (2) is provided above the filter element (1) and has one or a plurality of outlet openings (3) from which water (14) heated by an electric water heater flows into the element (1) in order to extract the coffee. According to the present invention, the filter element (1) includes on its outside top edge (9) an annular collar (10) which extends at an angle relative to the edge (9). The filter element (1) is made of filter paper. Disposed below the annular collar (9) is a securing device (28) which bears the filter element (1) and on which the filter element (1) is supported in a substantially cantilevered manner. In this way, the filter element and the coffee machine are easier to handle. In addition, brewing results are improved and the dripping time is reduced.

The invention is directed to a filtering device, a filter element therefor and a method of manufacturing the filter element (28) from filter paper. The filter element (28) has a receiving cavity (76) to be filled with extractable materials such as coffee grounds or tea leaves. Following contact with hot water, the extractable materials deliver extractive substances to the water, resulting in a brewed beverage that is drained from the filter element (28). During this process, the filter element (28) is held by the filter support (1) by way of a supporting member which includes a rim (39) formed on the filter element (28) and having a bearing surface (40), and a supporting surface (24) formed on the filter support (1). The rim (39) of the filter element (28) is reinforced mechanically by providing the filter paper with exposed pleats (42, 51, 52) which cooperate with corresponding elevations (115) and recesses (79) formed on the supporting surface (24) of the filter support (1). Such a filtering device of the present invention enables its manipulation and manufacture to be significantly facilitated. At the same time, improved brewing results are obtained. The operations of inserting such a filter element (28) in a filter housing (16) and filling it with coffee grounds, for example, are also improved. It is possible to manufacture a plurality of filter elements (28) in a single operation. At the same time, the filter elements are stackable in a minimum of space. The filter element is held in the filtering device without any additional fastening.
摘要:
A coffee maker and a method of preparing coffee in which steam is applied to the coffee grinds prior to passing hot water through the coffee grinds. The coffee maker includes a controllable outlet valve disposed within a fluid path, between a water reservoir and a flow-through heater. In a first position, the outlet valve has a flow opening dimensioned sufficiently small that water exiting the outlet valve evaporates completely in the flow-through heater. In a second position, the outlet valve has a flow opening dimensioned sufficiently large that water exiting the outlet valve is heated in the flow-through heater without appreciable development of steam.

The invention is directed to a carafe (10) for carrying a beverage, with a vessel (12) formed in particular from glass and having at its opening an upper rim (26) upon which a plastic ring structure (28) is seated. Because the thermal expansion of plastics is about 20 times greater than that of glass, the seat of the plastic ring (28) on the vessel (12) may work loose due to the effect of changing temperatures to which the carafe (10) is exposed as when hot or cold beverages are filled in. In order to ensure a consistently firm seat also at varying temperatures, it is proposed in the invention that the plastic ring structure (28) be provided with inner (30, 36) and outer (38) detent means rearwardly engaging inner (20) and outer (24) undercuts of the vessel (12).
摘要:
An electric-powered shaving apparatus with a drive part excitable by an electric motor into performing an oscillatory motion, the drive part transmitting its motion for cutting hairs to a short-hair cutter and to a long-hair trimmer. The long-hair trimmer is displaceable relative to the housing into an advanced and a retracted position. The motion of the drive part for the short-hair cutter is utilized for moving the long-hair trimmer into the advanced position.

An electrical hair removal apparatus for partially or fully removing hair from the skin. The hair removal apparatus has a housing and an application element arranged outside of the housing to apply a fluid onto the skin. The application element is embodied as a fluid reservoir that receives the total fluid reserve of the hair removal apparatus.

The invention is directed to a cleaning device for the shaving head of a dry shaving apparatus. The cleaning device 1 includes a receptacle 2 adapted to receive the shaving head. A pump 5 operates to transfer a cleaning fluid 4 from a reservoir 3 into the receptacle 2. A controllable drain 9 between the lower region of the receptacle 2 and the reservoir 3 ensures that the cleaning fluid 4 does not return to the reservoir 3 until needed. This prolongs the period of time for which the cleaning fluid 4 is in contact with the shaving head to be cleaned, without it being necessary for the pump 5 to run permanently.

A shaving unit for a dry shaver includes at least one outer cutter and one under cutter. Driven by a motor, the outer cutter and the under cutter are movable relative to each other in an oscillatory motion. The under cutter and the outer cutter, which are biased into relative engagement by at least one spring, slide along a common contact surface. The spring is arranged in such a way that its biasing force always acts at an angle to the direction of oscillation.
