Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Portionspackung zur Herstellung eines Brühgetränkes, umfassend ein mit einem Aromaträger wie Kaffee oder Tee befülltes Gehäuse mit einer umlaufenden Seitenwand, einem Boden und einem Deckel, wobei der Deckel zumindest bereichsweise wasserdurchlässig und der Boden zumindest bereichsweise als Filter ausgebildet ist.The present invention relates to a portion pack for producing a A brewed beverage, including one filled with an aroma carrier such as coffee or tea Housing with a circumferential side wall, a base and a cover, the lid being permeable to water at least in some areas and the bottom at least is partially designed as a filter.

Portionspackungen der gattungsgemäßen Art sind an sich bekannt.Portion packs of the generic type are known per se.

Bekannte Portionspackungen, bei denen das Brühwasser ausschließlich aufgrund der Schwerkraft durch eine Portionspackung hindurchgeleitet wird, sind aus verschiedenen, teils wasserdurchlässigen und teils wasserundurchlässigen Materialien hergestellt und weisen einen relativ komplexen Aufbau auf. Known portion packs, in which the brewing water is only due gravity is passed through a portion pack are made of different partly water-permeable and partly water-impermeable materials manufactured and have a relatively complex structure.

Es sind auch Portionspackungen zur Herstellung eines Brühgetränkes bekannt, bei denen das Brühwasser unter Druck durch die Portionspackung hindurchgeleitet wird. Dies ist mit dem Nachteil verbunden, daß derartige Portionspackungen nur in Verbindung mit entsprechend gestalteten Brüheinrichtungen verwendbar sind.Portion packs for the production of a brewed beverage are also known which the brewing water is passed through under pressure through the portion pack becomes. This has the disadvantage that such portion packs only in Connection with appropriately designed brewing devices can be used.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine einfach und preiswert herstellbare und für die Schwerkraftbrühung verwendbare Portionspackung zu schaffen.The present invention has for its object a simple and inexpensive portion pack that can be produced and used for gravity brewing create.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Seitenwand und der Boden einstückig aus einem filterfähigen Kunststoff-Vlies oder Kunststoff-Papier-Gemisch im Tiefziehverfahren hergestellt sind und zumindest der Seitenwandbereich dabei wasserundurchlässig verdichtet ist und daß der Deckel ebenfalls aus einem filterfähigen Kunststoff-Vlies oder Kunststoff-Papier-Gemisch hergestellt und in seinem umlaufenden Randbereich wasserundurchlässig verdichtet ist und daß der Deckel mit dem oberen Rand der Seitenwand dicht abschließend verbunden ist.This object is achieved in that the side wall and the Bottom in one piece from a filterable plastic fleece or plastic-paper mixture are manufactured in the deep-drawing process and at least the side wall area is waterproof sealed and that the lid is also made of one filterable plastic fleece or plastic-paper mixture manufactured and is densified in its peripheral edge and impermeable to water Lid is tightly connected to the upper edge of the side wall.

Eine derartige Portionspackung ist lediglich aus einem Ausgangsmaterial - nämlich einem filterfähigen Kunststoff-Vlies oder einem Kunststoff-Papier-Gemisch - hergestellt und weist einen relativ einfachen Aufbau auf. Die Portionspackung besteht aus zwei Einzelteilen, nämlich einem aus der Seitenwand und dem Boden bestehenden, topfartigen Unterteil und dem dieses Unterteil abschließenden Deckel.Such a portion pack is only made of one starting material - namely a filterable plastic fleece or a plastic-paper mixture and has a relatively simple structure. The portion pack is there from two individual parts, namely one consisting of the side wall and the bottom, pot-like lower part and the lid closing this lower part.

Durch Tiefziehen wird das Unterteil aus dem filterfähigen Kunststoff-Vlies oder dem Kunststoff-Papier-Gemisch in einem Arbeitsgang hergestellt und im Seitenwandbereich dabei derartig verdichtet, daß dieser Seitenwandbereich wasserundurchlässig wird. Gleichzeitig wird der Seitenwandbereich durch die erfolgte Verdichtung stabilisiert, so daß die gesamte Portionspackung gut zu handhaben ist.The lower part is made from the filterable plastic fleece or by deep drawing the plastic-paper mixture produced in one step and in the side wall area compacted in such a way that this side wall area is impermeable to water becomes. At the same time, the side wall area becomes more compact due to the compression stabilized so that the entire portion pack is easy to handle.

Der Deckel wird ebenfalls aus einem filterfähigen Kunststoff-Vlies oder einem Kunststoff-Papier-Gemisch gefertigt, wobei in diesem Falle lediglich der umlaufende Randbereich des Deckels derart verdichtet wird, daß hier eine Wasserundurchlässigkeit erzielt ist. Nach dem Befüllen des Unterteiles mit einem Aromaträger wird der Deckel auf das Unterteil aufgesetzt und mit diesem abdichtend verbunden, was auf thermische Art und Weise geschehen kann.The lid is also made of a filterable plastic fleece or a Plastic-paper mixture made, in which case only the circumferential Edge area of the lid is compressed in such a way that it is impermeable to water is achieved. After filling the lower part with an aroma carrier the lid is placed on the lower part and connected to it in a sealing manner, what can happen thermally.

Die Verwendung eines Kunststoff-Papier-Gemisches ist besonders unter ökologischen Gesichtspunkten vorteilhaft, da dieses Material überwiegend nachwachsenden Rohstoff (Zellstoff) enthält.The use of a plastic-paper mixture is particularly ecological Considerations advantageous because this material is predominantly renewable Contains raw material (pulp).

Insgesamt ist eine erfindungsgemäße Portionspackung sehr preiswert herstellbar und in hohem Maße praxisgerecht, da das Brühwasser zur Auslaugung des Aromaträgers lediglich aufgrund der Schwerkraft durch die Portionspackung hindurch geleitet werden muß.Overall, a portion pack according to the invention can be produced very inexpensively and highly practical, since the brewing water leaches out the aroma carrier only passed through the portion pack due to gravity must become.

Spezielle Brühvorrichtungen zur Benutzung der Portionspackung sind somit überflüssig.Special brewing devices for using the portion pack are therefore superfluous.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung sind Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.Further features of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den beigefügten Zeichnungen dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings and is described in more detail below.

In Figur 1 ist in schematischer Schnittdarstellung ein Tiefziehwerkzeug zur Herstellung eines Unterteiles 1 einer Portionspackung 2 zur Herstellung eines Brühgetränkes gezeigt, wobei das Tiefziehwerkzeug aus einer Matrize 3 und einer Patrize 4 besteht und zumindest die Matrize 3 mit einer Heizung 5 versehen ist.In Figure 1 is a deep-drawing tool for manufacturing in a schematic sectional view a lower part 1 of a portion pack 2 for the production of a brewed beverage shown, the deep-drawing tool from a die 3 and a male 4th exists and at least the die 3 is provided with a heater 5.

In diesem Werkzeug wird das schon erwähnte Unterteil 1 einer Portionspackung 2 gefertigt.In this tool, the already mentioned lower part 1 of a portion pack 2 manufactured.

Ausgangsmaterial für die Herstellung des Unterteiles 1 ist ein filterfähiges Kunststoff-Vlies 6 mit einer vorgegebenen Materialstärke D. Alternativ hierzu kann auch ein Kunststoff-Papier-Gemisch Verwendung finden.The starting material for the production of the lower part 1 is a filterable plastic fleece 6 with a predetermined material thickness D. Alternatively, can also use a plastic-paper mixture.

Durch das Tiefziehen eines entsprechenden Materialabschnittes aus diesem Kunststoff-Vlies 6 wird im Werkzeug gemäß Figur 1 das Unterteil 1 geformt, welches aus einer umlaufenden Seitenwand 7 und einem Boden 8 besteht. Diese beiden Teile 7 und 8 sind somit einstückig hergestellt und der Seitenwandbereich dieses Unterteiles 1 wird bei der Fertigung derart verdichtet, daß zumindest der vollständige Seitenwandbereich wasserundurchlässig wird. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist auch noch ein an die Seitenwand 7 anschließender, ringförmiger Bereich 8a des Bodens 8 entsprechend stark verformt, während der überwiegende Teil des Bodens 8 aufgrund der Tatsache, daß die Matrize mit einer entsprechenden Ausnehmung 9 versehen ist, praktisch nicht verformt wird und somit seine Filtereigenschaften behält. By deep drawing a corresponding section of material from this plastic fleece 6, the lower part 1 is formed in the tool according to FIG a circumferential side wall 7 and a bottom 8. These two parts 7 and 8 are thus made in one piece and the side wall region of this lower part 1 is compressed during production such that at least the entire side wall area becomes impermeable to water. In the illustrated embodiment also an annular region 8a of the adjoining the side wall 7 Soil 8 deformed accordingly, while the majority of the floor 8 due to the fact that the die with a corresponding recess 9 is provided, is practically not deformed and thus retains its filter properties.

Figur 2 macht deutlich, daß das Kunststoff-Vlies 6 auf eine Materialstärke Dl verdichtet wird, die lediglich einen Bruchteil der ursprünglichen Materialstärke D beträgt.Figure 2 makes it clear that the plastic fleece 6 compresses to a material thickness Dl which is only a fraction of the original material thickness D.

Durch diese enorme Verdichtung unter Wärmezuführ und unter dem Druck der Patrize 4 werden die verdichteten Bereiche (Seitenwand 7 und Bodenrandbereich 8) einerseits wasserundurchlässig und andererseits auch weitestgehend formstabil.Due to this enormous compression under the application of heat and under the pressure of the patrix 4 the compressed areas (side wall 7 and bottom edge area 8) on the one hand impermeable to water and on the other hand also largely dimensionally stable.

Die Figur 3 zeigt, daß ein Deckel 10, der ebenfalls aus einem Kunststoff-Vlies 6 hergestellt wird, in einer Matrize 3a unter Zuhilfenahme einer Patrize 4a gefertigt wird. Dabei wird lediglich der umlaufende Randbereich 11 des Deckels 10 bis zur Wasserundurchlässigkeit verdichtet, während der mittlere Abschnitt 12 des Deckels 10 durch die Ausnehmung 9a der Matrize 3a praktisch unverformt und somit wasserdurchlässig bleibt.FIG. 3 shows that a cover 10, which is also made of a plastic fleece 6 is produced, manufactured in a die 3a with the aid of a die 4a becomes. In this case, only the peripheral edge region 11 of the cover 10 to Waterproofing densifies while the middle section 12 of the lid 10 through the recess 9a of the die 3a practically undeformed and thus permeable to water remains.

Nach der Fertigstellung des Unterteiles 1 wird dieses mit einem Aromaträger 13, z. B. mit Kaffee oder Tee, befüllt und anschließend wird das Unterteil 1 durch den Deckel 10 verschlossen. Dabei liegt der Deckel 10 vorteilhafterweise auf einem den oberen Rand des Unterteiles 1 bildenden, umlaufenden Flansch 14 auf und wird mit diesem umlaufenden Flansch 14 thermisch verbunden und somit das Unterteil 1 dicht abgeschlossen.After completion of the lower part 1, this is with an aroma carrier 13, z. B. filled with coffee or tea and then the lower part 1 by the Cover 10 closed. The lid 10 is advantageously on one upper edge of the lower part 1 forming, circumferential flange 14 and is with this circumferential flange 14 is thermally connected and thus the lower part 1 tightly closed.

Durch den praktisch unverformten Bereich 12 des Deckels 10 kann nun Brühwasser zur Herstellung eines Brühgetränkes in die Portionspackung 2 eingelassen werden und dieses Brühwasser durchtränkt aufgrund der Schwerkraft sowohl den Aromaträger 13 wie auch den filterfähigen Bereich des Bodens 8. Da die Seitenwandung 7 des aus Unterteil 1 und Deckel 10 bestehenden Gehäuses praktisch wasserundurchlässig ist, kann Brühwasser nicht unkontrolliert und in unerwünschter Weise austreten, sondern das Brühwasser muß vollständig durch den Aromaträger 13 hindurch fließen. The practically undeformed area 12 of the lid 10 can now be used for brewing water for the preparation of a brewed beverage to be let into the portion pack 2 and this brewing water soaks both the aroma carrier due to gravity 13 as well as the filterable area of the bottom 8. Since the side wall 7 the housing consisting of lower part 1 and cover 10 practically impermeable to water brewing water cannot escape in an uncontrolled and undesirable manner, but the brewing water must be completely through the aroma carrier 13 flow.

Die wie vorstehend geschildert hergestellte Portionspackung 2 ist einfach und preiswert zu fertigen und in hohem Maße praxisgerecht, da für ihre Benutzung keinerlei Spezialeinrichtungen benötigt werden.The portion pack 2 produced as described above is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and highly practical, since none for their use Special facilities are needed.

Bevorzugt wird für die Herstellung der Portionspackung 2 ein polymeres Kunststoff-Vlies 6, da dies für die Fertigung unter Wärme und Druck besonders geeignet ist und auch eine einfache thermische Verbindung zwischen Unterteil 12 und Dekkel 10 ermöglicht.A polymer plastic fleece is preferred for the production of the portion pack 2 6, as this is particularly suitable for manufacturing under heat and pressure is and also a simple thermal connection between the lower part 12 and cover 10 allows.
