- the poppet pod 10 ⁇ includes a poppet body 110.
- the poppet body 110 may have a substantially circular sidewall 120 that leads to a conical base 130.
- the sidewall 120 and the conical base 130 define an interior surface 140.
- the interior surface 140 may be substantially smooth and crevice free so as to avoid trapping materials therein and to ensure complete evacuation of the liquid therein.
- the sidewall 120 may have an inside diameter of about 38 millimeters (about 1.5 inches) with a wall thickness of about one (1) millimeter (about 0.04 inches).
- the conical base 130 may extend downward at about forty-five degrees (45°) from the sidewall 120.
- the conical base 130 may have a depth of about 15.8 millimeters (about 0.6 inches) and a wall thickness of about 0.75 to about 1.5 millimeters (about 0.03 to about 0.06 inches).
- the sidewall 120 and the conical base 130 may take any convenient size or shape.
- the conical base 130 further may have an outlet aperture 150 formed therein.
- the outlet aperture 150 preferably is positioned about the center of the conical base 130.
- the outlet aperture 150 may have a diameter of about 12.7 millimeters (about one half inch). Any convenient size or shape may be used.
- the deflector skirt 160 may be largely circular in shape and may extend from the conical base 130 by about eight (8) to about nine (9) millimeters (about 0.3 to about 0.35 inches). Any convenient size or shape may be used herein.
- the base 130 and the skirt 160 may be a single element or separate elements.
- the sidewall 120 also may include a lip 170.
- the lip 170 may include a substantially flat top portion 180.
- the lip 170 may be offset from the sidewall 120 somewhat so as to provide an inner ledge 190.
- the inner ledge 190 will be used with a lid as is described below.
- the lip 17 ⁇ also may extend beyond the outside diameter of the sidewall 120 into a flange 195 by about 1.2 to about 1.3 millimeters (about 0.047 to about 0,05 inches).
- the flange 195 may be used to support the pod 100 in a beverage dispenser or other type of device. Any convenient size or shape may be used herein.
- the poppet body 110 may be substantially rigid so as to withstand the heat and pressure of the typical beverage cycle without imparting an off taste.
- rigid we mean that the poppet body 110 may flex or deform slightly while under pressure.
- the poppet body 110 may withstand temperatures of over about 95 degrees Celsius (about 203 degrees Fahrenheit) for up to about thirty (30) seconds or more at a hydraulic pressure of over about eleven (1 1) bar.
- the poppet body 11 ⁇ may flex or deform somewhat, the pod body 110 as a whole should withstand the expected water pressure therethrough.
- the lid 200 Positioned with the inner edge 190 of the poppet body 110 may be a lid 200.
- the lid 200 may have a thickness of about 0,7 to about 0.8 millimeters (about 0.027 to about 0.03 inches).
- the Hd 200 may include a number of orifices 210 positioned therein.
- the orifices 210 may have a diameter of about 0.38 millimeters (about 0.015 inches) or so. About twenty-five (25) orifices 210 may be used. Any number or size of the orifices 210 may be used herein.
- the orifices 210 may be sized and positioned so as to create a series of high-speed water jets.
- the poppet 220 may include a lower base 230, an upper base 240, a central column 250, and a number of ribs 260.
- the upper base 240 fits relatively snuggly within the outlet aperture 150 of the poppet body 110. As such, the upper base 240 has a diameter that is slightly larger than the diameter of the aperture 150.
- the lower base 230 has an even larger outside diameter so as to direct the flow of fluid along the outlet aperture 150 and the upper base 240.
- the centra! column 250 rises from the upper base 240.
- the central column 250 may have a height larger than that of the expected amount of material to be positioned within the poppet body 110 so as to ensure that no dispersible material remains on top of the column 250.
- the ribs 260 may have a width larger than that of the outer aperture 150 so as to allow the insertion of the poppet 220 in the outlet aperture 250 while preventing the poppet 220 from being removed. Any number of ribs 260 may be used.
- the poppet 220 should remain in place within the outlet aperture 150 until a predetermined pressure is reached, in this case about 0.4 kilograms per square centimeter (about 6 psi) of pressure is applied thereto. The pressure required to release the poppet 220 may be varied based upon the relationship between the diameter of the aperture 150 and the upper base 240 and other factors.
- the poppet 220 is positioned within the outlet aperture 150 of the poppet body 110.
- An amount of a d ⁇ spersible material 270 is positioned within the inner surface 140 of the poppet body 110,
- the lid 200 is then positioned within the inner edge 190 of the sidewall 120.
- the poppet body 110 then may be transported and stored as desired. While mixing, the poppet body 110 may be subject to pressurized water flow at about 10 to about 14 bar (about 145 to 200 psi). The pressurized water thus travels through the orifices 210 within the lid 200.
- the pressurized water may travel at about 55 meters per second (about 180 feet per second).
- the orifices 210 thus create a series of high speed water jets so as to promote good mixing of the dispersible material 270 as the water passes therethrough.
- An example of a beverage dispenser for use with the pod 100 is shown in commonly owned U.S. Patent No. 6,786,134, entitled “Coffee and Tea Dispenser”. As is shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the water thus travels through the dispersible material
- the upper base 240 separates from the outlet aperture 150 and the poppet 220 descends downward until the ribs 260 contact the interior surface 140 of the conical base 130.
- the beverage 280 thus may flow out of the outer aperture 150 onto the lower base 230 and then out within the skirt 160.
- the respective sizes of the poppet 220 as a whole with respect to the aperture 150 provides a shearing force to the beverage 280 as it passes therethrough so as to promote mixing.
- the lower base 230 and the skirt 160 create a turbulent fluid flow so as to promote further good mixing.
- the pod 110 then may be disposed of or reused as desired.
- the nature of the water flow through the pod 110 as a whole depends in part upon the geometry and size of the pod 100, the nature, size, and density of the dispersible material 270, the water pressure, the water temperature, the mixing time, and other parameters. Altering any of the parameters may alter the nature of the beverage 280.
- the dispersible material 270 may take the form of green tealeaves, chocolate, infusions, or other types of materials that generally dissolve in water or other types of liquid. Further, the dispersible material 270 may be a liquid as well. Any type of other materials also may be used herein.
- the orifices 210 of the lid 200 may be sealed to prevent the premature release of the dispersible material 270 during handling of the pod 100.
- the orifices 210 may be sealed by applying a paper label (not shown).
- the orifices 210 may be sealed by applying a solution of a soluble material 215 to the Hd 200 of the assembled pod 110, thereby disposing the soluble material 215 within the plurality of orifices 210.
- Suitable non- limiting examples of soluble material 215 include a water soluble material.
- Suitable water soluble materials include modified starches, such as dextrose starch.
- a dextrose starch solution (e.g., 5 grams starch to 15 grams water) may be prepared, applied to the lid of the assembled pod body 110 using a spray device, and allowed to dry.
- the water soluble material 215 dissolves when the pod body 110 is exposed to water during use, thereafter permitting normal preparation of the beverage 280.

- the pressure building within the pod 300 causes mixing of the water and the dispersible materials 270.
- a number of different dispersible materials 270 may be positioned within the pod body 310. Further, the different materials 270 may be layered or vertically separated within the pod body 310.

- the lid 930 may have a number of orifices 940 positioned therein. In this example, three (3) orifices 940 may be used.
- the orifices 940 may be positioned out of phase with the blades 900 of the top impeller 890 such that at least one stream will contact the blades 900 in the correct position to begin rotation.
- water is forced through the orifices 940 of the lid 930.
- the orifices 940 create about eight (8) bars of pressure.
- the pressure may be varied.
- the orifices 940 direct the water streams towards the impeller unit 870.
