Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001064089
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
The invention relates to a dispensing device for dispensing a flowable substance to form a beverage. The device includes a removable container (2) which in a filled state has a main reservoir into which is stored the flowable substance and a fitment (25) located at the bottom of the pouch (20) and tightly attached thereto. The fitment is shaped so as to include a pair of side flanges (31) and at least one passage (35) for allowing the flowable substance to pass therethrough by gravity. The device also has a dispensing base adapter (4) that includes a pair of side channel guide members (37) shaped to guide in slidable arrangement the flanges and a bottom bearing surface for supporting the fitment. In addition, the device has an elastic member for maintaining a downwardly oriented pressure of the flanges onto the bottom bearing surface effective to create a substantially tight seal arrangement and prevent the flowable substance from entering the space between the flanges and the bottom bearing surface.
