ATTACHMENT FOR A TEA KETTLE

摘要

An attachment for a container for the preparation of an extraction beverage comprises a base plate mounted horizontally on the container, having an aperture for an extraction product container to pass through, and a lifting apparatus which comprises a sleeve. The lifting apparatus has a guide fixed to the base plate for guiding the sleeve in a direction perpendicular to the base plate. The lower position defines a brewing position of the sleeve and the upper position defines an inoperative position. A locking apparatus locks the sleeve in the brewing position. A timer is also provided for operating the locking apparatus so that after a predefinable time period the sleeve is unlocked when it is locked in the brewing position. The sleeve is acted on by a restoring force to move from the brewing position to the inoperative position when the sleeve is unlocked.
