The invention relates to an infusion unit (1) for a machine for the production of an alimentary infusion from a beverage ingredient contained in capsule (2), comprising a container (3) with a mouth (3c) defining an infusion chamber (4), a closing piston (5) for closing the infusion chamber (4), control means (12) that can be activated for reversibly switching the infusion unit (1), from an open configuration to a closed configuration of the infusion chamber (4). In order to ensure smooth operation of receiving the capsule (2) and conveying the capsule to the closed position the invention proposes a mechanism for rotating the container (3) in the open configuration into an upright tilted position for receiving the capsule (2) from a loader (112) and for rotating the container (3) in a horizontal position when transitioning to the closed configuration. |
