Abstract:
Capsule (1) for containing beverage ingredients for producing a beverage in a beverage preparation device upon liquid injection into the capsule and by rotating the capsule about its central axis in the device, the capsule comprising:—a side wall (2a), a bottom wall (2b), an opening (2c) and a flange-like rim (2d), and—a lid member (3) attached to the flange-like rim (2d) and/or to the side wall and at least partially covering the opening, wherein the lid member (3) comprises an upper wall (3a) in recess relative to the flange-like rim and/or to the side wall towards the opening of the capsule and which comprises a central inlet (4) and peripheral outlet apertures (5) for the beverage release by effect of centrifugal forces, wherein the lid member (3) further comprises reinforcement members (6) protruding from the upper wall (3a) in axial direction.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a modular capsule kit for preparing a beverage by centrifugation of a capsule in a centrifuging brewing device upon liquid injection into the capsule and by rotating the capsule about its central axis in the device, the kit comprising at least two capsule types (1a,1b,1c,1d,1e) having:—interface heads (2) comprising a flange-like rim portion (3) and a transversal wall (4) having a central liquid inlet (5) and peripheral outlet openings (6), and—bottom closures (8,8′) designed for being individually connected to the interface head (2) to enclose an ingredients compartment (9) of predefined volume, wherein the volumes of the ingredient compartment (9) of the at least two capsules (1a,1b,1c,1d,1e) differ as a result of the selection of the bottom closure and/or its particular connection to the interface head.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a capsule (1) for containing beverage ingredients intended to produce a beverage in a beverage preparation device (20) upon liquid injection into the capsule and by rotating the capsule around its central axis in the device (20), the capsule (1) comprising: a side wall (2a), a bottom wall (2b) and a flange-like rim (2c), an upper wall (3) attached to the flange-like rim (2c) and/or the side wall (2b) of the capsule (1), the upper wall (3) comprising a central liquid inlet (4) and peripheral outlet apertures (5), wherein the upper wall (3) further comprises an outwardly protruding sealing member (6) which is arranged at an annular portion (3a) of the upper wall (3) between the central liquid inlet (4) and the peripheral outlet apertures (5), and which is designed to at least significantly hinder, preferably prevent liquid from flowing at the outside of the capsule (1) from the liquid inlet (4) to the outlet apertures (5) when the sealing member is engaged by the beverage preparation device (20) and, wherein the sealing member (6) is located radially distanced from the liquid inlet (4).
