NEW DESIGN FOR TURKISH COFFEE POT

Abstract

A coffee pot including at least one concave dome formed in the coffee pot base. The concave dome formed at the base of the coffee pot is a concave dome or protrusion in the form of a hemisphere decreasing in diameter from the coffee pot base upwardly (into the cezve). A diameter of the concave dome is 20% to 75% of a diameter of the base of the coffee pot. A height of the concave dome is 60% to 10% of a diameter of the at least one concave dome. The concave dome is positioned at a center of the base, or the least one concave dome is positioned with an amount of axial misalignment; and the least one concave dome at the base of the coffee pot is smooth sided or created through a decreasing diameter of concentric circles one inside another.

Claims

1. A coffee pot, comprising: at least one concave dome formed in a base of the coffee pot.

2. The coffee pot according to claim 1, wherein, the at least one concave dome has a hemispheric shape, gradually decreasing in diameter from the base of the coffee pot upwards forming the at least one concave dome.

3. The coffee pot according to claim 1, wherein a diameter of the at least one concave dome is 20% to 75% of a diameter of the base of the coffee pot.

4. The coffee pot according to claim 1, wherein, a height of the at least one concave dome is 60% to 10% of a diameter of the at least one concave dome.

5. The coffee pot according to claim 1, wherein, least one concave is positioned at a center of the base, or the least one concave dome is positioned at the center of the base with an amount of axial misalignment of the center; and the least one concave dome at the base of the coffee pot is smooth sided or created through a decreasing diameter of concentric circles one inside another of the concentric circles.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0022] The present invention of the coffee pot, Cezve, is designed primarily for the purpose of brewing Turkish coffee. However, the desired protection of the design can also be used not only for Turkish coffee, but also for coffee or tea brewing utensils suitable for similar purposes, or to be used for cooking vegetables, fruits, herbs and sauces.

[0023] To better understand the invention of the new design coffee pot (Cezve) an example of prior art, a flat bottom Cezve, is shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 2 shows that the conceptual design of the invention differs from the prior art as well as the estimated fluid turbulence occurring in the pot. FIG. 3 shows said cezve's perspective image, FIG. 4 shows the invention from above and FIG. 5 shows the cezve from the side view. The cezve (1) that is the present invention contains at least one concave dome (3) formed at the base of the coffee pot (2). The cezve (1) can be produced from copper, iron, brass, glass, ceramics, alloys and composite materials. The cezve's base (2) is preferably flat. But if desired, it can be wavy, curved or sloped. The concave dome (3) formed at the base of the pot (2) starting from the base of the coffee pot (2) upwards (into the cezve) is a concave dome or protrusion in the shape of a semi-spherical hollow with decreasing diameter. The concave dome (3) is preferably semi-spherical in shape with a decreasing circular slope comparable to the shape of the end of an egg. The important thing is the cezve (1) has a curved surface that allows the fluid inside to generate turbulence when heat is applied. In this respect, the concave dome (3) may also be a hemisphere, a curved hollow, or even a conical structure. The diameter (R2) of the concave dome (3) of the cezve that is the subject of this invention may be 20% to 75% of the diameter of the base (R1) of the pot. That is, the concave dome (3) at the base of the coffee pot (2) can be large or small. In addition, the height of the dome (H1) in the concave dome (3) may be between 10% and 60% of the diameter of the dome (R2). That is, the concave dome (3) may be very high or only a low bump in the coffee pot.

[0024] The concave dome (3) in the base (2) of the cezve (1) that is the present invention is preferably formed at the center of the base of the cezve (2). However, if desired, it can be positioned with an axial misalignment. From the top view, the profile may be an ellipse rather than a full circle. Also the concave dome (3) at the base of the coffee pot (2) can be smooth sided or created through a decreasing diameter of concentric circles one inside the other.

[0025] The cezve (1) that is the present invention for brewing any kind of Turkish coffee or similarly for cooking vegetables, fruits, herbs and sauces can be produced in both large or small sizes. It is basically designed to facilitate the natural turbulence of the heated fluid; apart from coffee it can be used to prepare and serve hot chocolate, tea or heat milk and similar products.
