Abstract: A safety valve of a boiler of a device for making hot beverages, particularly coffee, comprises an intermediate valve body, a plug and resilient means inserted into the seat of the intermediate valve body. The intermediate valve body comprises a peripheral wall designed to be folded over to define a reaction portion of the resilient means and positively press the plug, obtaining a final valve body. The peripheral wall partly closes off a first opening of the intermediate valve body and the plug partly projects from the final valve body.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a cover (1) of a coffee pot (20) or a pot (60) comprising conversion means (8) suitable for converting a thermal gradient, such as a Peltier cell, into an electrical potential difference. The potential difference allows electrically supplying a microprocessor for processing a signal coming from a sensor (13), for example a thermal sensor and the execution of an operation thereof, such as the emission of a sound warning.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a valve for a home cappuccino maker of the type comprising a boiler and a collector having a column. The valve comprises a valve body, coupling means suitable for fixing the valve to coupling means of the column, and a shutter mobile between a closed position and an open position of a duct. The valve also comprises a basket suitable for cooperating with the coupling means of the column and with the shutter.
Abstract: A receptacle device comprises a containment space at least partially defined by an inner surface of a containment wall made of glass or glass-ceramic material, and connecting means for connecting a handle to the containment wall. The connecting means comprise a connecting portion projecting from an outer surface of the containment wall opposite the inner surface, wherein the connecting portion is intended to be accommodated within a corresponding seat of the handle that can be mounted about the connecting portion and wherein the connecting portion has such a shape as to result non-extractable from the seat when mounted thereto.
Abstract: Equipment (10) for the preparation of a hot beverage comprising a boiler (10) capable of containing a liquid component of the beverage, for example water, a collection container (14) and means (22, 20, 28) defining a delivery path for the liquid component from the boiler to the collection container. The equipment also comprises valve means (40) located along the delivery path for the liquid component comprising a plug (44) which can move between a position in which the delivery path is closed and one in which it is open and means (70, 72; 74, 76; 78) to immobilise the plug in the open position. These means are arranged in such a way that they can be activated and deactivated by a force exerted in the direction of movement of the plug.
