  • Publication number: 20020185010
    Abstract: The present invention relates to filters for coffee,tea or hot brewed beverages, formed of porous paper, in which a substantially fan-shaped filter is placed inside a vessel of a conventional automatic drip beverage brewing appatatus,such as a percolating coffee maker, in which the filter is provided with a set of longitudinal folds, to multiply the rigidity of the filter walls by the ensuing spines formed by folding as supporting members, thus preventing the collapse of the walls while the beverage, such as coffee, is in the brewing process. The folds of the filter are inwardly folded flat while in storage so as to occupy smaller area and to permit its packaging in smaller cartons for easier storage and handling.
