  • Publication number: 20230278757
    Abstract: A closure cap made of a plastic. The closure cap includes a cylindrical shell which has a lateral outer surface and a vertical axis of rotation, and wings which are arranged to protrude from the lateral outer surface and which are fastened on diametrically opposite sides of the cylindrical shell. Each of the wings transitions from a wing fastening region, which is arranged close to the cylindrical shell, into an actuation region, which adjoins the wing fastening region and which is arranged radially further distant from the cylindrical shell. The actuation region serves for a manual actuation of the closure cap. The wing fastening regions are arranged, with respect to both sides of a central plane which runs through the cap axis of rotation, rotationally symmetrical with respect to the cap axis of rotation.

  • Publication number: 20210171277
    Abstract: A filter element for a portion capsule is insertable into a base element that is designed in a beaker-like manner and that, together with a capsule cover, which is fastened to the base element after inserting the filter element, defines an outer capsule wall. The filter element is designed such that it divides the capsule interior between an extraction material region and a collecting region, which is formed between the filter element and the outer capsule wall. The filter element forms a filter plate and a two-dimensional frame of struts, which run along the filter plate and meet one another at an angle, wherein the struts have a cross section that reduces radially outwards.
