A pressurized boiler comprises a first three-way valve, a dispenser, and a control card. The first valve comprises a seat integrated in the boiler and a pilot screwed into the seat. The dispenser receives hot water from the boiler through a first pipe and comprises a plurality of consecutively connected serving elements, each of which has three branches, which include closing means controlled by the card and which enable the direction of hot water towards a selected hot beverage serving. The first valve enables the direction of hot water from the boiler towards the dispenser and air towards the dispenser, draining the water downstream from the boiler so that it does not remain in the system and cool down between two consecutive servings. The boiler and the dispenser can be remotely disposed relative to each other.

1. A boiler and dispenser system for a hot beverage vending machine, comprising: a pressurized, closed boiler, which comprises a water intake;a dispenser, configured to allow a passage of water towards a selected hot beverage serving;a first pipe, interconnecting the boiler and the dispenser;a first three-way valve, which comprises a seat and a pilot joined to said seat, wherein the seat of the first three-way valve is integrated in the boiler, the said first three-way valve being disposed adjacently to the boiler and comprising: a first way connected to a water inlet from the boiler,a second way connected to an outside air inlet, anda third way connected to an outlet connected to the first pipe, for communicating the boiler with the dispenser through the first pipe;the first three-way valve being designed for selectively: allowing a circulation of water coming from the boiler towards the dispenser along the first pipe by the third way through the first way, orallowing a circulation of air coming from the outside towards the dispenser along the first pipe by the third way through the second way; anda control card configured to control opening of the first three-way valve and operation of the dispenser,for allowing drainage of the first pipe after dispensation of the selected hot beverage serving to purge water from the boiler and dispenser system downstream from the boiler towards the dispenser. 2. The boiler and dispenser system for a hot beverage vending machine according to claim 1, wherein the dispenser comprises a plurality of serving elements connected consecutively, each of which comprises first, second, and third branches,wherein, for each of the plurality of serving elements: the first branch is configured to allow an inlet of water from the first pipe or from the each serving element,the second branch is configured to conduct water towards the selected beverage serving, andthe third branch is configured to allow an outlet of water towards the first branch of a next serving element, andwherein the soluble or infusion hot beverage dispenser further comprises a closer that allows a selective circulation of water through a second pipe only towards the second branch of the serving element associated with the selected hot beverage serving, the second pipe comprising the first branch and the third branch of each of the serving elements. 3. The boiler and dispenser system for a hot beverage vending machine according to claim 1, wherein the boiler is formed by two stamped bodies joined together. 4. The boiler and dispenser system for a hot beverage vending machine according to claim 3, wherein the first three-way valve further comprises a pilot and a water and air outlet via the third way of the first three-way valve,wherein the boiler further comprises a water intake and a connection to the pilot, andwherein the bodies of the boiler are essentially equal and interchangeable, so that one of the bodies mechanically bears the water intake for the boiler, whereas the other body mechanically bears, on a seat, the water and air outlet and the connection to the pilot. 5. The boiler and dispenser system for a hot beverage vending machine according to claim 2, wherein the third branch of each serving element is sealingly joined to the first branch of a next serving element by metal bushings. 6. The boiler and dispenser system for a hot beverage vending machine according to claim 1, wherein the boiler and the dispenser are connected in remote disposition by the first pipe.
