Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The invention is designed to be placed on top of a cup when drinking.
This invention relates to the structure of a novel coffee pack in which coffee infusion can be obtained simply by passing hot water through the top.

[Prior art]

Fill a bag made of filter paper with the amount of roasted coffee beans powder for one person, attach it to the inner peripheral wall of a folded hollow pedestal made of waterproof cardboard, and seal it with an appropriate sealing means. , the opening at the top of the bag was closed together with the pedestal to seal the contents, creating a package-like shape.
So-called coffee packs are known.

When drinking, the sealing means is released and the bag containing the coffee powder is opened, and at the same time the folded base is unfolded so that it straddles the coffee cup 1 as shown in FIG. Install. Then, when hot water is poured into the coffee powder 4 through the opening 3 of the bag opened in the center of the pedestal 2, the infused liquid containing the ingredients gradually drips into the cup 1 from the bottom of the bag, so that aromatic coffee is obtained.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

In this method, in order to install the pedestal 2 on top of the cup 1, notches 5 provided at appropriate locations (in the illustrated example, three locations) on the lower edge of the pedestal 2 are engaged with the edge of the cup 1. positioning. However, this engagement is unstable and has the disadvantage that the base 2 may shift while pouring hot water. If the number of engaging points is increased to prevent this, the pedestal will completely cover the top of the cup, making it impossible to see the liquid level inside the cup, resulting in the disadvantage that the amount of hot water poured cannot be determined.

In view of the problems of the conventional technology, the present invention has been developed to allow a stable pedestal to be placed on top of the cup, and also to allow the inside of the cup to be observed when pouring hot water.
The purpose is to provide a coffee pack of the type mentioned at the beginning.

[Means to solve the problem]

The purpose of this is to insert a filter paper bag into the inside of a hollow pedestal made of water-resistant cardboard that can be folded flat, and fix the upper edge of the bag to the inner peripheral surface of the pedestal. A notch of a predetermined depth and a width corresponding to the thickness of the upper edge of the target cup is provided near both ends of the rim, and a notch of a predetermined depth is provided in the center area of the lower edge of the pedestal. This is achieved by the structure of the coffee pack, which is characterized in that it is provided with an arc-shaped tongue corresponding to the shape of the tongue, and a viewing window is provided in the center of the tongue.

It is preferable that roasted coffee bean powder is previously sealed in the filter paper bag to form a package shape.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail based on preferred embodiments shown in the drawings.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the appearance of an embodiment of the coffee pack of the present invention.

The pedestal 10 is made by punching out two sheets of water-resistant cardboard into a predetermined shape, and has both side edges 10a and 10b.
They are joined along a predetermined width to form a flat cylindrical shape. The lower edge 10c is open, but the upper edge 10d is sealed by a suitable means, such as an adhesive, and can be separated by a perforation 11.

In the vicinity of both ends of the lower edge 10c, cutouts 12 of a predetermined depth and having a width approximately equal to the thickness of the edge of the cup, which will be described later, are provided along the joining line, and in the central region, a cutout 12 of a predetermined depth is provided along the joining line. A tongue piece 13 extending in an arc shape is formed corresponding to the circumference. The tongue piece 13
A circular viewing window 14 is punched out in the center, and a score line 18 is provided across the window 14 to facilitate bending of the tongue.

Inside the cylindrical pedestal 10, there is a bag 1 made of filter paper.
5 is attached, and the periphery of its upper opening is joined and supported by the inner peripheral surface of the upper edge 10d of the pedestal, and the roasted coffee bean powder 16 is stored inside the pedestal 10. It is configured to be sealed together when the upper edge 10d is sealed, and to be opened at the same time as the upper edge 10d is cut off by the perforations 11.

Next, how to use the coffee pack of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4.

First, the upper edge 10d of the pedestal 10 is cut off along the perforations 11, and the flattened pedestal 10 is expanded to form an opening 19 in the upper part.

Next, the base 10 is set on the cup 17. That is, the two notches 12 provided on the lower edge 10c are engaged with two points facing each other on the edge of the cup 17 and pushed in, and the tongue piece 13 is bent outward along the score line 18, The tongue piece 13 is made to rest horizontally on the edge of the cup 17. As a result, the notch 12 and the edge of the cup 17 are tightly and frictionally engaged due to the elasticity of the cardboard, which tends to return to its original flat state, thereby allowing the pedestal 10 to be positioned. Furthermore, since the tongue piece 13 rests on the edge of the cup 17 over a wide area, there is no fear that the base 10 will tilt.

Since the tongue piece 13 is provided with a peephole 14, even when the periphery of the cup 17 is covered by the tongue piece 13, the cup 17 can be seen through the peephole 14.
You can observe the inside of.

When the pedestal 10 is set on the cup 17 in this way, the filter paper bag 15 is also opened,
A filter is formed hanging inside the pedestal 10. Therefore, it is sufficient to pour boiling water through the opening 19 and collect the exudate into the lower cup 17.

In this case, since the amount of hot water inside the cup can be observed at all times through the viewing window 14, failures in operation due to excess or lack of hot water will not occur.

In addition, if you mix a small amount of cyclodextrin powder into the coffee powder stored in the filter paper bag,
Due to its inclusive nature, the aroma of coffee is retained, and deterioration due to oxidation is suppressed, making it possible to obtain a product with little change over time.

In the above embodiments, coffee powder stored in a filter paper bag in advance was sealed together with the base to form a package, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention is not limited to this. The bag may be integrally attached to the pedestal having the above structure, and separately prepared coffee powder may be loaded into the filter paper bag each time it is used.
