Abstract: Capsules are provided which include a cup-shaped body and a lid which closes the cup-shaped body superiorly. The cup-shaped body includes a side wall and a bottom wall. The bottom wall has at least one outlet opening for the beverage to flow out of the capsule. The cup-shaped body also includes a retaining wall defining inferiorly an intermediate compartment containing the infusion product. The retaining wall includes an impermeable layer and is spaced from the bottom wall so as to define with the latter a lower compartment. The impermeable layer is configured to autonomously tear, due to the pressure reached in the intermediate compartment following the introduction of pressurized hot water into the capsule. Because tearing of the impermeable layer can take place without interaction with perforating elements, the filter element does not tear, and is therefore able to fully perform its filtering action for the entire duration of the preparation process of the beverage.

Abstract: Capsules are provided which include a cup-shaped body with a side wall having an upper edge and with a bottom wall in which a plurality of openings are defined for allowing water to enter the cup-shaped body; and a cover secured to the cup-shaped body so as to close the cup-shaped body on a side opposite from the bottom wall. The cup-shaped body and the cover are configured in such a manner as to allow, in use, the infusion to exit from the capsule only at a peripheral edge of the cover.

Abstract: The method comprises a first step during which with a capsule inserted into a percolation element and of the type presenting different chambers each of which containing a corresponding infuse, a water flow coming from a tank is caused to reach a predetermined temperature and a second step during which the water flow is directed towards a plurality of channels each of which is defined by a respective chamber and by a respective outlet area of said capsule.

Abstract: A capsule suited to contain in its inside a mass of powdered coffee for preparing an infusion of coffee. The capsule comprises a container closed by a lid. The container is provided with a filter of the coffee/hot water infusion. The capsule is characterized in that the mass of powdered coffee is located in an annular space surrounding a central chimney. The infusion water, during at least one of its intermediate steps, converges from the annular space towards the central chimney passing first through a vertical filter.

Abstract: Capsule to prepare an infusion of a powdered product, in particular coffee, having: a cup-shaped body with a bottom, which has an opening, and a lateral wall; a basket for containing the powdered product which is made of filtering material and is arranged inside said cup-shaped body; support elements, which are arranged between the bottom of the cup-shaped body and the basket; spacer elements which are suited to delimit a plurality of preferential channels between the lateral wall of the cup-shaped body and the basket; wherein a deflector device transverse to the longitudinal axis is provided; wherein the support elements are interposed between the preferential channels and the opening and are suited to create a labyrinth path for the infusion fluid coming from said preferential channels.

Abstract: The capsule for infusion products comprises a cup-shaped body made of a plastic material defined by a bottom wall, which is provided with a beverage outlet area, and by a lateral wall, a lid, arranged so as to close the cup-shaped body and which is provided with a water inlet area and an infusion product contained in the cup-shaped body. The capsule includes a plurality of abutments that originate from the inner face of the bottom wall and define labyrinth-shaped channels for the beverage towards the outlet area and on which a water-proof disc is fixed. Furthermore, the capsule comprises a passage of the beverage from the chamber defined in the cup-shaped body and the labyrinth-shaped channels.

Abstract: A capsule suited to contain inside it a powdered product e.g. powdered coffee) for the preparation of an infusion. The capsule comprises a container closed by a lid. The container is provided with at least a filter of the powdered product/hot water infusion. The capsule is characterized in that it comprises: a central feeding device for feeding a hot liquid according to a substantially vertical direction; said hot liquid being suited to obtain an infusion with said powdered product; and a deflecting device, which is arranged transverse to the hot liquid flow coming from said central feeding device; said deflecting device being supported by the bottom of said container by means of a support device.

Abstract: The capsule comprises a cup-shaped body defined by a bottom wall and by a side wall, a lid arranged so as to close body and an annular shoulder defined on the inner face of wall and on which the peripheral edge of lid is fixed. Side wall of body has an upper annular edge defined by: an annular portion extending upwards in one piece with side wall; an annular portion extending from portion on a horizontal plane; an annular portion extending from portion on a horizontal plane; an annular projection extending downwards from the lower face of portion for defining, together with the outer face of portion, an annular seat suited to be engaged by the upper end of a side wall of a percolation chamber; and a ring connecting portions and which, in section, is arched and has a concavity facing downwards.

Abstract: A system for preparing an amount of predetermined beverage starting from an extractable product. The system includes (a) an interchangeable capsule; and (b) a percolating machine for preparing infusions. A dispensing device of the percolating machine includes several perforation tips of the bottom intended to perforate the inlet area of a traditional capsule to create an inlet opening for the fluid. The system is characterized in that the inlet area includes a plurality of valves, and in that the perforating tips are in contact with the inlet area without performing any perforating action thereon.
