摘要： A filter device for coffee or the like which includes a container body consisting of an open frame and a blind-end frame including an annular bottom member, and a filter chamber for enclosing substance to be extracted and received in the annular bottom member via a filter, wherein the blind-end frame is adapted to be folded inside the open frame together with the filter chamber. The open frame is formed of sheet material having predetermined rigidity, such as thick paper, non-woven fabric, etc., while the blind-end frame is formed of deformable sheet material provided with shape retaining characteristic having predetermined rigidity and flexibility such as thin paper, non-woven fabric, etc. These open frame and the blind-end frame are connected so as to be folded. When the filter device is not in use, the blind-end frame is folded and pushed into the open frame while turned back to be stored inside the open frame together with the filter device. Thus, the filter device can be stored or transported in a compact state. For use, the blind-end frame may be expanded while pulling out the filter chamber, restored to the container body of a cup-like shape, and mounted on a coffee cup or the like to be poured with hot water.

摘要： A filter device for coffee or the like which includes an open frame 2 formed of sheet material having predetermined rigidity, such as thick paper, and which is smaller in diameter than a blind-end frame 3. Both the frames are connected by a tubular body part 5 formed of deformable sheet material provided with shape retaining ability having predetermined rigidity and flexibility such as thin paper, non-woven fabric, etc. to compose a cup-like container body 1 having a wider bottom in a shape of substantially truncated cone. The filter device can be placed on a coffee cup for use. When the filter device is not in use, the open frame 2 is folded and pushed into the blind-end frame 3 by means of flexibility of the body part 5 and contracted. For use, the open frame 2 is pulled up to expand the body part 5, and the container body is restored into the cup-like shape and prepared to be poured with hot water.

摘要： A steeping apparatus is for steeping a granular solid food material in a liquid to impart a flavor of the solid food material to the liquid to produce a flavored beverage. The apparatus includes a container to hold the solid food material and the liquid. A plunger is movable vertically with respect to the container between an upper plunger position and a lower plunger position. The plunger includes a filter element that, as the plunger is moved from the upper plunger position to the lower plunger position, permits the flow of liquid therethrough but that substantially inhibits the passage of solid food material therethrough. A buffer element is situated above the plunger and is movable with respect to the container from an upper buffer element position to a lower buffer element position. When the buffer element is at the lower buffer element position, the granular solid food material is substantially decoupled from the flavored beverage.

摘要： The invention refers to a coffee machine having a brewing chamber and a beverage outlet. A valve assembly is inserted between the brewing chamber and the beverage outlet. The valve assembly comprises a valve seat and a valve body member movable with regard to the valve seat. The valve body member is biased by a spring and can be moved, against the force of the spring, by the pressure of the coffee beverage flowing through the valve assembly. Moreover, these are provided for adjusting the bias force of the spring. In such a design, the operator or user of the coffee machine can directly influence the amount of coffee to be brewed per time unit. Moreover, within the limits of the user selected value, the brewing water flows through the coffee powder received in the brewing chamber with an essentially constant flow rate, regardless the amount and granule size of the coffee powder received in the brewing chamber.

摘要： A coffee bean container for an automatic coffee maker comprising a receptacle (2) for storing coffee beans, with an output shaft (4) via which coffee beans in the receptacle (2) can be supplied to a grinding mill. The coffee bean container has a coupling ring (7) disposed coaxially to the output shaft (4) for connecting the coffee bean container (1) to an automatic coffee maker. The coffee bean container (1) has a closure unit (12) for closing the output shaft (4) which has at least one closure element (13, 14). The at least one closure element (13, 14) is supported about a pivot axis parallel to the axis of the output shaft (4) and pivotable between an open and a closed position. The closure unit (12) includes a mechanical drive which mechanically couples the closure element(s) (13, 14) to a rotational movement of the receptacle (2) which moves the closure element(s) to the open position or closed position.

摘要： For use in a single serve beverage brewer in which a measured charge of a dry beverage medium is infused with a metered amount of heated liquid to produce a beverage medium, a reusable beverage filter cartridge is provided for containing the beverage medium and for accommodating an inflow of the heated liquid and an outflow of the beverage medium. The cartridge comprises a cup-shaped housing having a top opening and a closed bottom with an outlet port. A filter internally subdivides the housing into a first chamber accessible via the top opening and configured and dimensioned to contain the beverage medium, and a second chamber communicating with the outlet port. A lid is removably secured to the housing in a position closing the top opening, and an inlet port in the lid serves to admit heated liquid into the first chamber for infusion with the beverage medium contained therein. The filter is permeable to accommodate a flow therethrough of the resulting beverage into the second chamber from which it exits via the outlet port.
