A device used to extract a substance in order to produce drinks, includes a plurality of brewing chambers (7, 8). The device has an interface (6) which is used to connect to a hot water supply inlet and element for distributing the hot water between the brewing chambers (7, 8) containing a substance that is to be infused. For each brewing chamber (7, 8), the aforementioned distribution elements include elements for detecting the presence of the substance to be infused and elements for opening the hot water inlet into the brewing chamber (7, 8) upon detection of the substance. A machine including such a device is also disclosed. The invention is particularly suitable for making espresso coffee.

The invention claimed is: 1. A substance extraction device (5) for producing drinks, comprising: a plurality of brewing chambers (7, 8); an interface (6) configured to connect to a hot water supply inlet; and means of distributing hot water from said hot water supply inlet between the brewing chamb
The invention claimed is: 1. A substance extraction device (5) for producing drinks, comprising: a plurality of brewing chambers (7, 8); an interface (6) configured to connect to a hot water supply inlet; and means of distributing hot water from said hot water supply inlet between the brewing chambers (7, 8) configured to contain a substance to be infused, wherein the distributing means comprises, for each brewing chamber (7, 8), means for detecting a presence of the substance to be infused, and means for opening the hot water supply inlet into the respective brewing chamber (7, 8) upon detection of the presence of the substance to be infused, wherein said brewing chambers (7, 8) are formed in part in a fixed component (9) and in part in a mobile component (10) between an open position and a closed position of said brewing chambers (7, 8), wherein the fixed component (9) and the mobile component (10) are connected by a swivel pin (19), and wherein the mobile component (10) is actuated by a lever mounted on the fixed component (9) by a pin (17a, 17b), the lever comprising at least one oblong hole (20a, 20b) cooperating with a guide finger (21a, 21b) on the mobile component (10). 2. The device according to claim 1, further comprising, for each brewing chamber (7, 8), a mobile member (29a, 29b) configured to occupy, a hot water inlet shutoff position in which one end of the mobile member (29a, 29b) is deployed inside the respective brewing chamber (7, 8), and a hot water inlet open position in which said one end of mobile member (29a, 29b) is retracted from the respective brewing chamber (7, 8) by bearing on the substance to be infused. 3. The device according to claim 1, wherein guide finger (21a, 21b) has a rectangular section and is mounted to swivel in relation to mobile component (10). 4. The device according to claim 1, wherein at least one portion of a wall of oblong hole (20a, 20b) comprises a slip coating (22a, 22b). 5. The device according to claim 3, wherein the mobile component (10) comprises, for each brewing chamber (7, 8), a filtering cup (12a, 12b) supported by a holder (11a, 11b), each holder (11a, 11b) being adjustable in height inside a housing (23a, 23b) formed in the mobile component (10). 6. The device according to claim 5 wherein each holder (11a, 11b) is secured inside the respective housing (23a, 23b) by a respective pressure screw (15a, 15b), wherein each pressure screw (15a, 15b) is also configured to mount a guide finger (21a, 21b), and wherein each holder (11a, 11b) is adjustable in height within the respective housing (23a, 23b). 7. A machine for producing drinks from a substance to be infused comprising a hot water supply source, comprising: at least one device according to claim 1. 8. The device according to claim 3, wherein at least one portion of the wall of oblong hole (20a, 20b) comprises a slip coating (22a, 22b). 9. The device according to claim 1, wherein the mobile component (10) comprises, for each brewing chamber (7, 8), a filtering cup (12a, 12b) supported by a holder (11a, 11b), each holder (11a, 11b) being adjustable in height inside a housing (23a, 23b) formed in the mobile component (10). 10. A substance extraction device (5) for producing drinks, comprising: a plurality of brewing chambers (7, 8); an interface (6) configured to connect to a hot water supply inlet; and means of distributing hot water from said hot water supply inlet between the brewing chambers (7, 8) configured to contain a substance to be infused, wherein the distributing means comprises, for each brewing chamber (7, 8), means for detecting a presence of the substance to be infused, and means for opening the hot water supply inlet into the respective brewing chamber (7, 8) upon detection of the presence of the substance to be infused, wherein said brewing chambers (7, 8) are formed in part in a fixed component (9) and in part in a mobile component (10) between an open position and a closed position of said brewing chambers (7, 8), and wherein the mobile component (10) comprises, for each brewing chamber (7, 8), a filtering cup (12a, 12b) supported by a holder (11a, 11b), each holder (11a, 11b) being adjustable in height inside a housing (23a, 23b) formed in the mobile component (10).
