Abstract: [PROBLEM] To provide a interlocking device and a packaging bag therewith wherein the interlocking device has sufficient heat stability against retort sterilization treatment and deformational change after said treatment small enough not to be impaired its reopenability. [SOLUTION MEANS] A interlocking device having a pair of male and female profiles wherein: said male and female profiles have non-heat-sealing part to bag body and heat-sealing part to bag body; where said non-heat-sealing part consists of polypropylene type resin composition (A) having main melting peak temperature observed by differential scanning calorimetry less than 150 degree C. and the melt flow rate at 230 degree C. from 0.5 g/10 min to 20 g/10 min; and said heat-sealing part consists of polypropylene type resin composition (B) having main melting peak temperature observed by DSC, not less than 140 degree C. and the melt flow rate at 230 degree C. from 0.

Abstract: An apparatus for preparing infusions such as coffee in different forms includes a sealed container in which water is heated so that it can be used either as hot water or steam, a water tank and a heating element for heating the contents of the container. Water in the tank can flow into the container through a conduit containing a check valve. Four conduits have outlets at the top of the container. One of them is connected to an infuser and is adapted to transport hot water. Another conduit is adapted to transport steam which may be used for preparing a cappuccino-like drink or for preheating a receptacle. The other two conduits are for removing high pressure steam from inside the container, one of them having an outlet near the bottom of a subtank which is built as a part of the water tank.
