- the capsule la has a support ring 12a made of plastic, which is arranged on the receptacle 10a.
- the support ring 12a may, for example, in-mold technology to the receptacle be sprayed.
- the inner contour of the support ring 12a is cylindrical and adapted to the outer contour of the cylindrical side wall 101a of the receptacle 10a.
- Support ring 12a may be conical, for example.
- FIG. 9 shows a capsule 2a, which has a receptacle 20a in one piece and an aluminum foil 21a.
- the receptacle 20a includes a cylindrical side wall 201a provided with ribs 2010a extending in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical wall 201a, with ribs 2010a and recesses 2011a formed alternately in the radial direction.
- This structure makes it possible for a deformation of the side wall 201a to take place at least in regions when the pressure in the interior of the receiving container 20a is increased.
- the rib structure may be formed both radially and axially along the entire side wall 201a, or only in one or more portions of the side wall 201a.
- the receptacle 20a also comprises an upper wall 202a, which is substantially dome-shaped or spherical segment-shaped.
- the area of the apex of the upper wall is adapted to be pierced by a hollow mandrel, then hot water and / or water vapor can then flow through the hollow mandrel into the interior of the receiving container 20a.
- the receptacle 20a has a continuously outwardly widened region 203a, which is followed by a further outwardly projecting edge 204a.
- An aluminum foil 21a which closes the opening 205a of the receptacle 20a, is arranged airtight on the edge.
- the aluminum foil 21a corresponds to both the function, as well as of the
- An aluminum foil may be selected from a cover of any material which will protect the aroma of the capsule contents and / or the
- FIG. 11 shows the lower edge of a sixth embodiment of a capsule according to the invention for producing a beverage.
- the capsule has a receiving body with a receiving space 10b for example, a powdery concentrate such as coffee.
- the receiving space 10b is bounded by a top wall (not shown) and an approximately cylindrical side wall 1 lb.
- the lower edge 12b of the cylindrical side wall 11b defines an opening 13b.
- a flange 14b connects, which extends away from the opening 13b to the outside.
- the flange 14b consists of a portion of material which is pulled up or inwardly at the edge 140b of the flange 14b.
- the flange 14b has a lower one
- Section 141b, a crimping edge 142b and an upper portion 143b extends along the upper side of the lower portion 141b and practically abuts thereon.
- the flange 14b is double-walled with the flanging edge 142b on the outside.
- the upper portion 14b3 terminates on the side wall 12b or in a transition region
- FIG. 12 shows the lower edge portion of a seventh embodiment of the invention. Same features as in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals.
- the flange 14b consists of a portion of material which is crimped inwardly at the edge 140b of the flange 14b.
- the free end 144b of the material portion is to the upper side of the lower one
- Section 141b rolled up.
- the flanged edge 142b is thus rounded.
- annular portion 2b is provided in the second embodiment, which is plugged or integrated over the receiving body to the top of the flange 14b.
- the portion 2b has a matching contour 20b, which is adapted to the transition region 15b.
- the element 2b has a beaded edge, which is formed with a rounded flanged edge 21b. The sealing effect in the region of the flange 14b is thus improved.
- FIG. 13 shows a section of an eighth embodiment of a capsule, wherein identical features are designated by the same reference numerals as in the previous embodiments.
- the flange 14b has no beaded edge, but a bead 145b which forms the end of the flange 14b. While the previously described elements of the capsule 1b, 2b are made of aluminum, the capsule in this embodiment has an annular
- Plastic adapter 3b which is provided for example as a molded KU part and attached to the receiving body.
- the plastic adapter 3b is adapted to the transition region 15b. Its height is reduced from the inside out.
- the adapter 3b fulfills a
- the opening 13b is typically closed by an air- and aroma-tight membrane (not shown) circumferentially attached to the lower side of the (lower) portion 142b of the flange 14b.

Abstract
L'invention concerne une capsule à deux éléments, comportant un élément intérieur (1) en aluminium du type godet, un élément extérieur (2) du type godet et un élément de fermeture fermant une ouverture du godet formé par l'élément intérieur (1) du type godet et l'élément extérieur (2) du type godet. Les parois/zones de l'élément intérieur (1) et l'élément de fermeture délimitent un espace de logement ou intérieur fermé étanche à l'eau et à l'air pour un aliment, par exemple pour de la poudre de café. L'élément extérieur (2) est moulé par injection sur l'élément intérieur (1) au cours d'un procédé de moulage par injection ou est fabriqué par thermoformage.
