BEVERAGE POD SYSTEM WITH POD EJECTOR

The invention concerns a device for extracting a beverage ingredient by supplying an extraction liquid such as heated water into in a pod, and comprising :- upstream and downstream pod enclosing parts (1, 2) relatively translatable between an open position for inserting and/or ejecting the pod (3) and a closed position for forming an extraction chamber (5) enclosing the pod during extraction,- an insertion section (4) for inserting the pod in the device, said insertion section being designed to position the pod with the lid facing the downstream piercing arrangement (12), and- a pod holder (11), said pod holder being attached to a peripheral area (13) of the downstream partwherein the central part (131) of the peripheral area of the downstream enclosing part, the downstream plane piercing arrangement (12) and the cage (21) of the upstream enclosing part form the extraction chamber (5), the edge (211) of the opened end of the cage defined by the upstream enclosing part facing/leaning on the central part (131) of the peripheral area of the downstream enclosing part, andwherein the peripheral area (13) of the downstream enclosing part is able to pivot around a bottom transversal axis (YY') and in the upstream direction.
