BOILER FOR A MACHINE FOR MAKING HOT BEVERAGES
First Claim
1. Boiler for use on a machine for making hot beverages comprisinga heat diffuser (32) consisting of a first wall (33) for placing in contact with a liquid to be heated and a second wall (34) opposite the first wall (33),heating means (30) consisting of at least one serigraphed or photo-engraved resistance (31) arranged on second wall (34) of heat diffuser (32) and forming a pattern consisting of at least one resistive track,a body which, with first wall (33) of heat diffuser (32), defines a heating chamber (11) inside which the liquid is to be heated,characterized in that it includes bearing means arranged to bear on at least one zone of second wall (34) of heat diffuser (32), the resistive track(s) being arranged on each side of the said zone so that the bearing means absorbs at least part of the force transmitted by the liquid to heat diffuser (32) and resulting from the pressurizing of the liquid in heating chamber (11).

Abstract
The present invention concerns a boiler for use in a machine for making hot beverages comprising a heat diffuser (32) with a first wall (33) destined to be placed in contact with the liquid to be heated and a second wall (34) opposite first wall (33), heating means (30) consisting of at least one serigraphed or photo-engraved resistance (31) arranged on second wall (34) of heat diffuser (32) and defining a pattern formed of at least one resistive track, a body which with first wall (33) of heat diffuser (32) defines a heating chamber (11) inside which the liquid is to be heated. It also includes a bearing means shaped to bear on second wall (34) of heat diffuser (32) on at least one zone, the resistive track(s) being arranged on either side of the said zone so that the bearing means receives at least part of the force transmitted by the liquid to heat diffuser (32) and resulting from the pressurizing of the liquid in the heating chamber (11).
