Definitions
- the present invention relates to a manufacturing device for the manufacture of a composition, in particular cosmetic, or more precisely for the preparation of a composition by mixing two formulations.
- the structure of the manufacturing apparatus described in the document FR3026622 requires the provision of a drive motor of large size in order to transmit, to the first and second deformable compartments, pressure forces adapted to ensure migration of the contents of the first compartment to the second compartment, and conversely a migration of the contents of the second compartment towards the first compartment, and this in particular when the first and second deformable compartments or connecting channels associated with the first and second deformable compartments are closed by a weakened weld zone.
- the provision of a large drive motor substantially increases the cost of manufacturing the manufacturing apparatus, as well as the bulk and weight of the manufacturing apparatus.
- FR 2 781 695 A1 discloses a receiving device and a mixing machine.
- the present invention aims to remedy all or part of these drawbacks.
- the technical problem underlying the invention therefore consists in providing an apparatus for manufacturing a composition which is simple, compact and easy to use, while having a simple structure and at a reduced price.
- connection faces are distinct from the actuation faces.

- a longitudinal direction X is defined for it, which corresponds to the direction in which it is inserted into the reception housing 32. Consequently, the longitudinal direction X and the direction of insertion coincide when the reception device 5 is inserted into the mixing machine 6.
- the mixing machine 6 is configured to mix the first and second formulations inside the receiving device 5, and preferably inside the first and second capsules 3, 4, without any of the formulations come into contact with the manufacturing device 2.
- the first formulation is a first phase of a cosmetic product to be manufactured, such as a fatty phase of the cosmetic product

- the receiving device includes
- the reception device 5 is able to occupy an open position in which the first and second capsules 3, 4 are able to be introduced into the reception device 5, and a closed position in which the reception device 5 is able to maintain position the first and second capsules 3, 4.
- the reception device 5 more particularly takes the form of a reception box 7 ( figure 2A , 2B ) configured to receive and house at least partly the first and second capsules 3, 4.
- the receiving device 5 comprises in particular a first protective shell 8 and a second protective shell 9 mounted articulated relative to each other around an axis of articulation 10 (or hinge) and between a first position (see figure 2A , 2B , 5 ) corresponding to an open position of the receiving device 5 and a second position (see figure 4A , 4B ) corresponding to a closed position of the receiving device 5.
- the receiving device 5 further comprises a first support part 11 and a second support part 12 arranged in the receiving box 7.
- the first and second support parts 11, 12 respectively comprise a first reception location 13 configured to receive the first capsule 3 and a second reception location 14 configured to receive the second capsule 4.
- the first and second protective shells 8, 9 each comprise an opening 8.2, 9.2 to allow to access the first or second reception location 13, 14. These openings 8.2, 9.2 define an insertion face of the reception device 5.
- the reception device 5 comprises a withdrawal face, opposite the insertion face.
- the first support part 11 comprises receiving wedges 15 configured to receive a peripheral portion of the first capsule 3, and the second support part 12 also comprises receiving wedges 15 configured to receive a peripheral portion of the second capsule 4.
- These receiving wedges 15 partly define the first and second receiving locations 13, 14.
- the first support part 11 comprises a first placement surface 11.1, configured to guide (with contact) and receive the flat face 3.7 of the first capsule 3.

- the receiving device 5 further comprises a separation wall 22, defining a separation plane ( figure 3A , 3B ) .
- the dividing wall 22 is located between the first and second reception locations 13, 14. It is also integral with the first support part 11.
- the dividing wall 22 comprises a passage opening 22.2 in order to allow the first and second connection parts 3.2, 4.2 to be positioned in the receiving device.
- the passage opening 22.2 is in the form of a slot through the thickness and open to the outside.
- the openings 11.2, 22.2, 12.2 therefore form a space to receive the connection end pieces 3.4, 4.4 of the first and second capsules 3, 4.
- a first actuation face 8.1 is also defined which comprises the first shell 8 and the first support part 11 and a second actuation face 9.1 which comprises the second shell 9 and the second support part 12.
- Each actuation face 8.1, 9.1 intervenes in the transmission of the forces received by the reception device 5 to the first and second capsules 3, 4. This will be explained in detail later.
- the first and second shells 8, 9 are articulated with respect to each other around the axis of articulation 10 and between a reception position (see the figure 2A , 2B , 3A , 3B ) in which the first and second shells 8, 9 are remote from each other and the first and second capsules 3, 4 are able to be received respectively in the first and second reception locations 13, 14, and a position connection (see figure 4A , 4B ) in which the first and second shells 8, 9 are close to each other and the first and second capsules 3, 4 are pre-connected to each other.
- pre-connected to each other is meant that the male connection endpiece 4.4 of the second capsule 4 is partially inserted into the female connection endpiece 3.4 of the first capsule 3 without, however, a sealed connection is established between these first and second capsules 3, 4.
- the first and second shells 8, 9 may for example have an angle of inclination greater than or equal to 7°, and for example of about 7°, when they are in the receiving position, and be substantially parallel to each other. relative to each other when they are in the connection position. More precisely, there are two main assemblies that are only hinged relative to each other: the first shell 8, the first support part 11, the partition wall 22 and the second support part 12 on the one hand; and the second shell 9, on the other hand.
- the first and second shells 8, 9 are configured to engage the first part of 3.2 connection in the second connection part 4.2 when the receiving device 5 is moved into the closed position.
- the connection parts 3.2, 4.2 are partially nested with each other.
- the first and second support parts 11, 12 are more particularly configured such that the first and second capsules 3, 4 extend substantially parallel to each other, when the first and second shells 8, 9 are in the connection position.
- the first capsule 3 is configured to extend partly outside the reception device 5 when it is received in the reception device 5 and the latter is in the closed position.
- the outlet orifice 3.6 is configured to extend outside the reception device 5 when the first capsule 3 is received in the reception device 5 and the latter is in the closed position.
- the manufacturing device 2 comprises a heating element 46 (also called “heating element") visible on the figure 3A , 3B .
- the heating element 46 forms part of the receiving device 5.
- the latter could be integrated into the mixing machine.
- the heating element 46 is attached to the partition wall 22. During the design, it was chosen that the heating element 46 is on the side of the first support part 11, which means that the heating element heater 46 is mounted on the side of the partition wall 22 which is on the side of the first support part 11.
- the heating element 46 preferably comprises one or more electric heating resistors 46.1 and a diffusion plate 46.2.
- the heating element 46 thus has a planar shape to better diffuse the heat, if possible with a surface area of at least 500 mm 2 and preferably of the order of 800 mm 2 .
- the first support part 11 there is provided in the first support part 11 a communication opening 46.3 which places the flat face 3.7 of the first capsule 3 with heating element 46 (i.e. separated only by air).
- the heating element 46 needs to be supplied with electricity.
- the reception device 5 does not have its own battery and must be powered when it is inserted into the reception housing 32.
- the reception device 5 comprises the insertion face, where the openings 8.2, 9.2 are located and which is the face which first enters the reception housing 32, and an opposite withdrawal face, which is the visible face when the receiving device 5 is inserted into the receiving housing 32.
- the receiving device 5 further comprises a first actuating face 8.1 and a second actuating face 9.1, opposite each other.
- connection device 5 comprises a first connection face 23 and a second connection face 24, preferably opposite.
- connection faces 23 and 24 correspond to the side faces of the heating element 46 and are therefore distinct from the first and second actuation faces 8.1, 9.1 and from the insertion/withdrawal faces.
- connection faces 23, 24 extend between the actuating faces 8.1, 9.1 of the receiving device 5.
- connection faces 23, 24 interconnect the actuating faces 8.1, 9.1 of the receiving device 5 , that is, they are contiguous.
- the general shape of the receiving device 5 is chosen so that the connection faces 23, 24 are further apart from one another than the actuation faces 8.1, 9.1 (and than the insertion/removal faces).
- the faces which touch the connection faces 23, 24 are further apart than the faces which touch the actuating faces 8.1, 9.1 and are closer than the faces which touch the insert/remove faces. This translates into the fact that the receiving device 5 is wider than it is thick (and moreover it is higher than it is wide).
- the first connection face 23 comprises a first electrical contact track 23.1 intended to supply the heating element 46 and the second connection face 24 comprises a second electrical contact track 24.1 also intended to supply the heating element 46 ( figure 2A , 3A , 3B , 4A , 4B ) .
- the electrical contact tracks 23.1, 24.1 are therefore outside the reception device 5, in order to be brought into contact with complementary tracks ( figure 2A , 4A , 4B ).
- This configuration has several advantages: first, it provides a simple and efficient electrical connection. It also avoids the risk of short circuit. Indeed, if ever liquid were to flow into the receiving housing 32 (for example water from the shower or the sink or quite simply a capsule which bursts), it is unlikely that the two electrical contact tracks 23.1 , 24.1 are touched at the same time by the same volume of liquid.
- the first connection face 23 comprises a portion of the first and second shells 8, 9, of the first support part 11 and of the separation wall 22.
- the first connection face 23 comprises a longitudinal groove 23.2 with a bottom 23.21 and two side walls 23.22, 23.23.
- the first electrical contact track 23.1 is preferably positioned on the side wall 23.22 of the longitudinal groove 23.2.
- the bottom 23.21 and the side wall 23.23 are formed by a portion of the first support part 11.
- a suitable cutout 8.5 is then provided in the first shell 8 to make room for the longitudinal groove 23.2.
- the opposite side wall 23.22 is produced by a portion of the partition wall 22.
- the first electrical contact track 23.1 is then positioned on this side wall 23.22 (because the heating element 46 is mounted on the partition wall).
- a similar longitudinal groove 24.2 is provided on the second connection face 24, with a cutout 9.5 in the second shell 9 and a bottom 24.21 and two opposite side walls 24.22, 24.23. Due to the non-centering of the grooves, the cutout 9.5 in the second shell 9 is much less marked than the cutout 8.5 in the first shell 8.
- the grooves 23.2, 24.2 are configured to engage on respective complementary rails 31.1, 31.2 (slide connection) provided in the receiving housing 32 on (preferably opposite) connection sides ( figure 1A , 7A ). Consequently, the grooves 23.2, 24.2 form undercuts which extend over the entire height of the portion of the receiving device 5 where they are located - at the very least up to the height of insertion.
- the complementary rails 31.1, 31.2 contribute to defining the reception housing 32 and are positioned on opposite edges.
- the electrical contact tracks 23.1, 24.1 are not located at the same level, but are offset.
- the electrical contact tracks 23.1, 24.1 can take several forms: electrical pins, metal blades (as illustrated), etc.
- the electrical contact tracks 23.1, 24.1 are preferably slightly deformable to ensure permanent contact when the reception device 5 is placed in the reception housing 32.
- the longitudinal grooves 23.2, 24.2 do not extend over the entire height of the portion of the first or second shell 8, 9 where they are located. Consequently, without necessarily providing a specific part, an abutment effect is obtained simply by the part of the first or second shell 8, 9 which does not pass through due to the undercut effect. In other words, the first or second shell 8, 9 prevents the insertion of the grooves 23.2, 24.2 on the rails 31.1, 31.2 when the receiving device 5 is in the wrong direction.
- longitudinal grooves 23.2, 24.2 each include an end stop 23.3, 24.4, located on the side of the withdrawal face. These end stops 23.3, 24.4 act as insertion stops, to define a maximum insertion position in the receiving housing 32.
- the first support part 11 is favored over the second support part 12 to carry a wall 23.23, 24.23 of the groove 23.2, 24.2, because of the heating element 46 which is intended mainly to heat the first capsule 3.
- a temperature sensor (not visible in the figures) is attached to the rear face of the diffusion plate 46.2 to measure the temperature prevailing near the first reception location 13 and therefore the first capsule 3.
- the temperature sensor is typically an NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient thermistor).
- This temperature sensor 6 must also be electrically connected to the mixing machine 6 (in particular ultimately the processor, to recover the data) and to a battery 44 fitted to the mixing machine 6, to power it.
- a first additional electrical contact track 46.51 is provided at the level of the first contact face 23. This first additional electrical contact track 46.51 is separate from the first electrical contact track 23.1. More specifically, the first additional electrical contact track 46.51 is provided in the first groove 23.2, on the side wall 23.23, that is to say the side wall formed by the first support part 11.
- a second additional electrical contact track 46.52 is provided in the second groove 24.2.
- additional electrical contact tracks 46.51, 46.52 are also advantageously offset.
- additional electrical contact track 46.51 and electrical contact track 24.1 are at the same level and additional electrical contact track 46.52 and electrical contact track 23.1 are at the same level.
- the figure 2A , 3A , 3B , 4A , 4B , 5 illustrate these tracks.
- the receiving device 5 comprises a polarizer 17 to ensure that the first and second capsules 3, 4 are correctly positioned, that is to say that the "good” capsules 3, 4 are put in the "good” locations.
- receiver 13, 14 (distinctly visible on the figure 2A , 5 ).
- the polarizer 17 is preferably located at the end of the passage openings 11.2, 12.2, to block the unwanted passage of an unwanted connection end piece 3.2, 4.2.
- the polarizer 17 comprises at least one leaf 17.1 opening towards the outside of the reception device 5 (preferably two, on each side as illustrated in the figures; preferably, the two leaves 17.1 have a saloon configuration, that is to say that is, articulated by hinges towards the outside of the receiving device 5).
- polarizer 17 fulfills two distinct roles.
- the leaf 17.1 comprises an opening 17.2 of complementary shape to the female connection end piece 3.4 of the first capsule 3 in order to allow its insertion into the opening 8.2.
- the leaf 17.1 comprises a stop 17.3, which contributes to defining the opening 17.2, in order to prevent the insertion into the opening 8.2 of the second connection part 4.2, which is longer transversely than the first connection part 3.2 . Indeed, if one tries to insert the second capsule 4 into the first reception location 13, the end of the second connection part 4.2, that is to say part of the male connection end piece 4.4 comes knock against the stopper 17.3.
- the corrector 17 blocks it when the reception device 5 is in the closed position: the passage opening 12.2 is blocked, preferably also by the stop 17.3.
- the receiving device 5 is in the open position, that is to say that the second shell 9 has turned on its hinge, the passage opening 12.2 is released.
- the polarizer 17 can be attached to the first support part 11 or to the second support part 12 (as in the figures), depending on the design of the relative movement of the parts: if the second support part 12 is attached to the second shell 9 (and therefore mobile in rotation with respect to the first support part 11), then it is preferable to attach the polarizer to the first support part 11. In other words, this is irrelevant.
- Return springs 17.4 keep the polarizer 17 in the default position, that is to say closed.
- the reception device 5 further comprises a first support element 19 configured to penetrate inside the second reception location 14, that is to say to exert a pressure force on the first capsule 3, and more particularly on the first deformable compartment 3.1, and a second support element 21 configured to penetrate inside the first reception location 13, that is to say to exert a pressure force on the second capsule 4, and more particularly on the second deformable compartment 4.1.
- the first support element 19 (respectively the second support element 21) is preferably mounted on the first support part 11 (respectively the second support part 12) and is movable between an inactive position, or so-called deployed position, in which the first or second reception location 13, 14 is accessible for the first or second capsule 3, 4 (see the figure 2B , 3A , 3B ) and an active position or so-called folded position, in which the first support element 19 (respectively the second support element 21) penetrates inside the first reception location 13 (respectively the second reception location 14), that is to say that it is capable of exerting a pressure force on the first deformable compartment 3.1 of the first capsule 3 (respectively the second deformable compartment 4.1 of the second capsule 4).
- the first support element 19 (respectively the second support element 21) is advantageously rotatably mounted around a hinge 19.1 (respectively the hinge 21.1).
- the hinge 19.1 (respectively the hinge 21.1) is located opposite the opening 8.2 (respectively the hinge 8.1) of the first shell 8 (respectively the second shell 9).
- the hinges 19.1, 21.1 are therefore both located close to the withdrawal face of the receiving device 5.
- the support elements 19, 21 each have a flat internal face 19.2, 21.2 to form mobile pallets in rotation. Each planar internal face 19.2, 21.2 cooperates with its respective first or second capsule 3, 4. As one presses on the support elements, the volume between the pallet and the placement surface 11.1, 12.1 gradually and continuously decreases.
- the outlet orifice 3.6 and the connection parts 3.2, 4.2 are located on the side opposite the hinge 10: this allows the cream to be expelled effectively from the first or second capsule 3 , 4 avoiding any unwanted retention zone inside it.
- return means 21.3 like springs, are provided, resting against the first or second shell 8, 9 ( figure 5 ).
- the means of reminders 21.3 can tend to push the pallet which extends slightly on the other side of the hinge 21.1.
- the two support elements 19, 21 are activated successively to allow the mixing of the cream.
- the cream then passes from a first or second capsule 3, 4 to the other second or first capsule 4, 3.
- the hinge 19.1 (respectively the hinge 21.1) defines an axis of rotation included in the plane of the placement surface 11.1 (respectively the placement surface 12.1) and orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the reception device 5.
- the internal face 19.2, 21.2 can be pressed against the placement surface 11.1, 12.1.
- the hinge 19.1, 21.1 is preferably located just at the end of the first or second reception location 13, 14.
- the first and second shells 8, 9 each include, preferably opposite the end part of the pallet (to take advantage of the leverage effect and minimize the effort to be applied) , a fulcrum 8.3, 9.3, configured to receive an external force, described in more detail below.
- the fulcrum 8.3, 9.3 is attached to a flexible zone 8.4, 9.4, which can deform (in elastomer, etc.).
- the flexible zone 8.4, 9.4 is itself attached to the rest of the first or second shell 8, 9, made from a more rigid plastic.
- the fulcrum 8.3, 9.3 is in a rigid material (typically plastic).
- the first and second shells 8, 9 have two orifices, preferably opposite the end part of the pallet, in order to allow free access to the support elements 19, 21.
- a user can, with one hand, grasp the receiving device 5 and press the support points 8.4, 9.4 simultaneously, for example with the thumb and the index/middle finger. Simultaneous pressure makes it possible to direct the cream from the first and second capsules 3, 4 towards the outlet orifice 3.6.
- the pallets can be directly integrated into the mixing machine 6.
- a retention mechanism 50 In order to prevent the receiving device 5 from being removed from the receiving housing 32 when the mixing process is in progress, a retention mechanism 50, described in detail later, is provided in the manufacturing apparatus 2.
- a retention abutment 9.6 is provided on one of the first or second shells 8, 9 (the second shell 9 on the figure 2A , 2B , 3A , 3B , 4B , 5 ) .
- This retention stop 9.6 essentially corresponds to a projection extending radially, that is to say in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction X. It can be at any location along the height of the device. reception 5.
- the retention stop 9.6 is arranged close to the insertion face.
- Another stop can be provided on the other shell, for ergonomic reasons for example.
- gripping handles 8.7, 9.7 are provided on each of the first and second protective shells 8, 9 (visible especially on the figure 1 , 2B , 4A , 4B ). These gripping handles 8.7, 9.7 are located at the level of the withdrawal face, which is the one accessible when the reception device 5 is in place.
- the gripping handle 8.7, 9.7 can simply be constituted by a projection extending radially, that is to say in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction X, long enough for part of the user's phalanx can shoot it.
- These support points 8.3, 9.4 are formed in a flexible zone 8.4, 9.4.
- connection end pieces 3.4, 4.4 come opposite each other and partially fit together.
- a coupling mechanism 52 is provided in the manufacturing apparatus 2. This coupling mechanism 52 exerts a force in the direction of the receiving device 5. This coupling mechanism 52 makes it possible both to establish the fluidic connection between the first and second capsules 3, 4 under the effect of the force exerted by the coupling mechanism 52 but also to avoid any unwanted disconnection first and second capsules 3, 4 under the effect of the pressures generated by the mixing of the first and second capsules 3, 4. It will be described later.
- One of the first or second protective shells 8, 9 comprises a coupling button 9.8, movable in the direction of the second reception location 14 ( figure 2A , 2B , 3A , 3B , 4A , 4B , 5 ). More precisely, it is movable in the direction of a zone close to the opening 9.2, since the coupling button 9.8 is intended to press on the second capsule 4 close to the connection portion 4.2.
- the coupling button 9.8 is attached to a flexible zone, which may be the flexible zone 9.4 of the fulcrum 9.3. It is noted here that the coupling button 9.8 is distinct from the fulcrum 9.3.
- the coupling button 9.8 is preferably rigid to better transmit the force of the coupling mechanism 52 to the first and second capsules 3, 4, which are therefore kept coupled.
- the mixing machine 6 comprises a support 31, and a reception housing 32 defined at least in part by the support 31 and configured to receive at least in part the reception device 5.
- the mixing machine 6 and the receiving device 5 are configured such that the receiving device 5 extends at least partly outside the mixing machine 6, when the receiving device 5 is received in the receiving housing 32.
- the support 31 behaves like a base, that is to say it defines a set of fixed elements when the mixing machine 6 is placed on a support (table, work surface, ...), regardless of whether it is in use or not.
- the support 31 of the mixing machine 6 also comprises an outer shell 33 and an insertion opening 34 opening into the reception housing 32, the reception device 5 being configured to be inserted into the reception housing 32 through the insertion opening 34.
- the insertion opening 34 is formed in a central portion of an upper surface of the base 33, and is configured to be oriented upwards when the mixing machine 6 is placed on a horizontal support surface (table, work surface, etc.).
- the base 33 also acts as an outer casing, with the desired design for the mixing machine.
- Base 33 may include a lower base and an upper base.
- the mixing machine 6 further comprises an actuation system 35 pivotally mounted on the support 31 around a substantially vertical pivot axis 36 when the mixing machine 6 is placed on a horizontal support surface (table, work surface , ...) ( figure 6 , 8A , 8B , 8C , 9 , 10A ).
- the actuation system 35 performs back and forth movements around the pivot axis 36 according to a maximum angular movement of 45°.
- the movement is therefore composed of a rotation at +45°C maximum then a rotation at -45°, and so on. Its movement takes place along a nominal stroke C35 (not shown in the figures), which, in the case of rotation around the pivot axis 36, is associated with the maximum angular movement.
- the nominal stroke C35 of the actuation system 35 is defined as the stroke between two extreme positions of said actuation system 35.
- a neutral position of the actuation system 35 is defined between these two extreme positions, the neutral position of the actuation system actuation 35 corresponding to an insertion position in which the receiving device 5 can be positioned inside the receiving housing 32 of the mixing machine 6 without being hindered by the actuation system 35.
- the mixing machine 6 further comprises a drive motor 39 mounted on the support 31.
- the drive motor 39 is configured to pivot the actuation system 35 around the pivot axis 36 and in an angular range predetermined. Preferably, the drive motor 39 only rotates in one direction.
- the actuation system 35 comprises a first actuation member 37, which may comprise a first actuation finger 37.1, configured to transmit a pressure force to the first capsule 3, and a second actuation member 38, which may comprise a second actuation finger 38.1, opposite the first actuation member 37 and configured to transmit a pressure force to the second capsule 4.
- the first and second actuating members 37, 38 are configured to be arranged on either side of the receiving housing 32 and therefore of the receiving device 5 when the latter is received in the mixing machine 6, and more precisely in the receiving housing 32.
- the actuators 37, 38 have at least one position in which they are at least partially inside the receiving housing 32. In the neutral position of the actuator system 35, the actuators 37, 38 are arranged relative to the receiving housing 32 so as to allow the receiving device 5 to be positioned inside the receiving housing 32 of the mixing machine 6; this is the insertion position.
- the first and second actuating members 37, 38 are more particularly configured to exert pressure forces respectively and alternately on the first and second support elements 19, 21, so as to transmit pressure forces respectively and alternately on the first and second compartments 3.1, 4.1.
- the first and second actuating members 37, 38 are configured to cooperate respectively with the first and second bearing points 8.3, 9.3 of the first and second protective shells 8, 9, or directly on the bearing elements 19, 21.
- An actuation stroke C37 is defined for the first actuation member 37 and an actuation stroke C38 for the second actuation member 38.
- the actuation stroke C37 is defined as the stroke of the first actuation member 37 between the neutral position of the actuation system 35 and the maximum actuation position of the first actuation member 37, in which the first actuation member actuation 37 is in maximum compression on the first support element 19.
- actuation stroke C38 is defined as the stroke of the second actuation member 38 between the neutral position of the actuation system 35 and the maximum actuation position of the second actuation member 38, in which the second member actuation 38 is in maximum compression on the second support element 21.
- the movement of the actuation system 35 can be monitored using various sensors, and in particular Hall effect sensors.
- each of said first actuation member 37 and second actuation member 38 may comprise a magnet intended to interact with a fixed Hall effect sensor.
- the Hall effect sensor can be placed directly on a control unit 45 which will be described later, as can be seen in the figure 12 . It is thus possible for the control unit 45 to follow the movement of the actuation system 35, and even of each of the first and second actuation members 37, 38. It is even possible, for the control unit 45 , to know precisely the position of each of the first and second actuating members within their respective actuating strokes C37, C38, for example by arranging several Hall effect sensors.
- the first and second actuating members 37, 38 extend substantially in the same plane of extension, and converge opposite the pivot axis 36.
- the actuator system 35 has a substantially annular shape defining an opening around the receiving housing 32.
- the actuator system 35 is formed essentially in one piece, comprising an opening to receive a shaft defining the pivot axis 36.
- the first actuating member 37 and the second actuating member 38 are each arranged on opposite sides of the actuating system 35. Consequently, there is an actuating system 35 extending twice over two opposite faces two two: the actuating members 37, 38, the opening for the pivot axis 36 and the drive mechanism with groove which is described later.
- the actuating members 37, 38 can each comprise a drive support 37.3, 38.3, which meet on one side at the level of the pivot axis 36. On the other side, a connection portion 36.1 is defined. , which connects the two drive supports 37.3, 38.3. The connection portion 36.1 can be attached or integral with the drive supports 37.3, 38.3.
- the two actuators 37, 38 rotate around the same pivot axis 36.
- the actuating members are movable in translation.
- the actuation system 35 moves along a nominal stroke C35 to exert a force on the receiving device 5.
- the actuation system 35 may include a spring 37.4, 38.4 (particularly visible in Figures 8A, 8B , 8C ).
- the spring 37.4, 38.4 is configured to compress when the actuation system 35 arrives near its nominal end of travel C35 and the actuating finger 37.1, 38.1 abuts against the flat face 3.7,4.7 of the capsule.
- the spring 37.4, 38.4 therefore generates a force tending to separate the actuating member 37, 38 from the receiving device 5.
- each actuation member 37, 38 comprises a spring 37.4, 38.4.
- the spring 37.4, 38.4 can be located in different places. In an embodiment not illustrated, the spring 37.4, 38.4 is located at the "free" end of the finger 37.1, 38.1.
- the spring 37.4, 38.4 is mounted between the finger 37.1, 38.1 and the drive support 37.3, 38.3. In this way, the user cannot access it because the spring is behind the base.
- each actuating member 37, 38 an arm 37.2, 38.2, mounted to move relative to the drive support 37.3, 38.3.
- the finger 37.1, 38.1 is then mounted integrally with the arm 37.2, 38.2.
- the arm 37.2, 38.2 is rotatable relative to the drive support 37.3, 38.3 by a hinge 37.5, 38.5.
- the spring 37.4, 38.4 is positioned between the arm 37.2, 38.2 and the drive support 37.3, 38.3.
- the spring 37.3, 38.3 therefore works in compression, in the sense that its empty position, or unconstrained position, is not compressed. It is compressed in the direction of translation or rotation of the actuator 37, 38.
- the spring 37.3, 38.3 can be of the helical, leaf type, or even comprise an elastic material or an elastic assembly (elastomer, gas bubble, etc.).
- the mixing machine 6 also comprises a cam 41, in the form of a wheel drive or an arm, integral in rotation with an output shaft 39.1 of the drive motor 39 and configured to be driven in rotation around its axis 41.1 of cam rotation.
- the cam 41 is mounted on the support 31. To allow the movement back and forth with a large lever arm, it is preferable that the pivot axis 36 and the cam 41 are on either side of the housing reception 32.
- the cam 41 is equipped with a drive finger 42 which is eccentric with respect to the axis 41.1 of cam rotation.
- Cam 41 is typically driven by drive motor 39 using one or more belts.
- the kinematic chain is as follows, from the drive motor 39 and its output shaft 39.1 on which is mounted a pulley: a belt 39.2, a pulley 39.3 connected to a pulley 39.4 by a shaft, a belt 39.5, cam 41.
- the drive finger 42 is received in a drive groove 43 provided on the actuation system 35.
- the drive groove 43 is constructed in the connection portion 36.1.
- the drive groove 43 is elongated and extends along a direction of extension substantially parallel to the pivot axis 36.
- the drive groove 43 extends, according to its depth, in the direction of the pivot axis 36.
- a ball joint is provided between the drive finger 42 and the drive groove 43, which makes it possible to manage the previous misalignment.
- a ball 42.1 which is housed in a ring 43.1.
- the connection between the ball 42.1 and the ring 43.1 is a ball joint.
- the ring 43.1 is received in the drive groove 43 where it is mounted to move in translation in a direction parallel to the pivot axis 36 (therefore along the length of the drive groove 43).
- the ball 42.1 is mounted movable in translation along the drive finger 42.
- the arrangement of these different connections can be different, in the sense that the ring can also be movable in translation along the depth of the groove and the ball is then fixed on the drive finger.
- the complete connection between the drive finger 42 and the actuation system 35 comprises in series a slide, a ball joint, a slide perpendicular to the other slide. Consequently, in a kinematic torsor, it is noted that the force is only transmissible on one of the six components of the torsor, namely that of the tangent translation to the rotational movement of the actuation system 35, that is to ie the one which allows the rotation of the actuation system 35.
- the kinematic equivalent is the sphere-plane connection (also called point connection).
- the cam rotation axis 41.1 and the pivot axis 36 are preferably orthogonal. This makes it possible to have a drive finger 42 which describes a circular movement in a plane parallel to the pivot axis 36.
- the mixing machine 6 could be configured such that a rotation of the drive motor 39 in a first direction of rotation causes a pivoting of the actuating part 35 in a first direction of pivoting and that a rotation of the drive motor 39 in a second direction of rotation, opposite to the first direction of rotation, causes a pivoting of the actuating part 35 in a second direction of pivoting, opposite to the first direction of pivoting.
- Actuators 37, 38 each move along an actuation stroke C37, C38.
- one of the two actuation members 37, 38 has an actuation stroke C37, C38 of length strictly greater than that of the other actuation member.
- actuation stroke C37, C38 makes it possible to better manage mechanically and electrically the effort to be provided to deform the first capsule 3 with respect to the second capsule 4.
- the first capsule 3 has a greater thickness than the second capsule 4, which means that more space is needed on the side of the thicker capsule and that the support element 19 will be in contact more quickly and will start to work faster than supporting element 21.
- One solution is to have a drive groove 43 not centered in the connection portion 36.1.
- the offset can also be defined using the receiving housing 32 with respect to the axis of rotation of the cam 41: thus the extreme positions of the actuation system 35 are not centered around the receiving housing 32.
- the offset can also be defined relative to the first and second placement surfaces 11.1, 12.1 or relative to the location of the first and second capsules 3, 4 within the receiving housing 32: using the flat faces 3.7, 4.7, which therefore define artificial planes in the receiving housing 32.
- the maximum distance from the first actuating member 37 to said plane of the flat face 3.7 is greater than the maximum distance of the second actuating member 38 with respect to the face flat 4.7.
- the pivot axis 36 is included in a plane located equidistant from the two placement surfaces 11.1, 12.1.
- the first actuating finger 37.1 is advantageously longer than the second actuating finger 38.1. This is notably due to the fact that it is necessary to compensate for the extreme position of the actuating fingers 37.1, 38.1 due to the shift. More exactly, the actuating finger 37.1, 38.1 which works on the thickest first or second capsule 3, 4, has a greater length than the other actuating finger 38.1, 37.1.
- a non-zero angle Ag typically Ag is between 5° and 30°
- the actuating strokes C37, C38 correspond, at the level of the cam 41, to the rotation from said angle Ag to the nearest 90° rotation. (that is to say 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock, when the mixing machine 6 is placed on a horizontal support) and then to the rotation from the said angle Ag' until the rotation at 270°.
- Ag and Ag' are not at 0 and 180° (noon and 6 o'clock), we immediately notice that the strokes C37 and C38 are not equal.
- the first actuating stroke C37 has therefore been traversed in a first direction then the first actuating stroke C37 in a second direction, then the second actuating stroke C38 in a first direction then the first actuation stroke C38 in a second direction, that is to say twice the nominal stroke C35.
- the mixing machine 6 also comprises electrical contact tracks 31.11, 31.12 configured to engage with the electrical contact tracks 23.1, 24.1 of the longitudinal grooves 23.2, 24.2 of the receiving device 5 and the contact tracks electric 31.51, 31.52 configured to engage with the additional electric contact tracks 46.51, 46.52 of the longitudinal grooves 23.2, 24.2.
- These electrical contact tracks are mounted on the rails 31.1, 31.2 ( figure 1A , 7A ), which are integral with the support 31 and which are mounted on two connection sides of the receiving housing 32.
- the location of the electrical contact tracks 31.11, 31.12 (and also 31.51, 31.52) on the rails 31.1, 31.2 is complementary to the location of the electrical contact tracks 23.1, 24.1 (and also 46.51, 46.52) of the connection faces 23, 24 of the reception device 5.
- the rails 31.1, 31.2 contribute to defining the reception housing 32. They are for example located on the edge and are preferably fixed over their entire length to the support 31.
- the location of the electrical contact tracks 31.51, 46.51 and 31.52, 46.52 on two opposite rails 31.1, 31.2, located at a distance from each other, has the advantage of limiting the risks of short-circuit if ever liquid were to sink by gravity on one of the rails 31.1, 31.2.
- the mixing machine 6 further includes a retention mechanism 50, a coupling mechanism 52 and a clamping mechanism 54 ( Figures 10A, 10B , 10C, 10D , 10E , 10F , 11A, 11B , 11C ).

- the retention mechanism 50 has the function of preventing the removal of the receiving device 5 when mixing is in progress.
- the retention mechanism 50 is mounted to move relative to the support 31 between an insertion position and a retention position. In the insertion position, the retention mechanism 50 allows the insertion and removal of the receiving device 5 relative to the mixing machine 6. In the retention position, the retention mechanism 50 blocks the removal of the reception 5 (and therefore would prevent its insertion).
- the retention mechanism 50 comprises a movable element 50.1 between the two aforementioned positions, which extends into the receiving housing 32 in the retention position.
- the movable element 50.1 cooperates with the retention abutment 9.6 to prevent a translational movement of the receiving device 5 aimed at extracting it from the mixing machine 6 (in fact, the retention abutment 9.6 comes to block against the mobile element 50.1 in the event of withdrawal).
- the movable element 50.1 and the retention stop 9.6 are provided to be located close in the retention position, preferably less than 2 mm, when the receiving device 5 is placed in the mixing machine.
- the movable element 50.1 is a wheel, called retention wheel, movable around an axis of rotation of the wheel 50.2.
- the wheel 50.1 has at least two different spokes, the smaller spoke being configured so as not to extend into the receiving housing 32 in the insertion position and the larger spoke being configured to extend into the receiving housing 32 in the retention position, in order to come into contact, in the event of withdrawal, against the retention abutment 9.6.
- the wheel 50.1 is preferably circular with a flat portion, the flat portion allowing the insertion position.

- the movable element 50.1 is movable in translation, for example by a rack and pinion system using the pinion 51.
- the function of the coupling mechanism 52 is to establish the sealed connection between the first and second capsules 3, 4 and to ensure that the latter remain well fitted via their connection end piece 3.4, 4.4 by pressing the coupling button 9.8 of the second protective shell 9.
- the coupling mechanism 52 is mounted to move relative to the support 31 between an insertion position and a coupling position.

In the coupling position, the coupling mechanism 52 locks the first and second capsules 3, 4.
- the coupling mechanism 52 comprises a coupling element 52.1 movable between the two aforementioned positions, which extends into the receiving housing 32 in the coupling position.
- the coupling element 52.1 in the coupling position, cooperates with the coupling knob 9.8 which moves inside the second reception location 14.

- the coupling element 52.1 is a wheel, called a coupling wheel, movable around an axis of rotation of the wheel 52.2, which preferably coincides with the axis of rotation of the wheel 50.2.
- the wheel 52.1 has at least two different spokes, the smallest spoke being configured so as not to extend into the housing of reception 32 in the insertion position and the largest spoke being configured to extend into the reception housing 32 in the coupling position, in order to come into contact with the coupling button 9.8, and to press it.
- the wheel 52.1 is preferably oval in plan.
- the wheel 52.1 is mounted on a shaft which extends along the axis of rotation of the wheel 52.2.
- This shaft comprises a pinion or a pulley, connected to at least one other pinion or another pulley 51.1.
- the shaft and the pinion are preferably the same as the shaft and the pinion 51. A first subassembly integral in rotation is thus obtained.
- the coupling element 52.1 is movable in translation, for example by a rack and pinion system using the pinion 51.
- the coupling mechanism 52 is separate from the actuation system 35. This results in a different position in the mixing machine 6 (for example at different heights). Similarly, the receiving device 5 does indeed include support points 8.3, 9.3 distinct from the coupling button 9.8.
- the clamping mechanism 54 has the function of blocking the outlet passage 3.5 of the first capsule 3 when the mixing process is in progress. Indeed, the pressures inside the first or second capsules 3, 4 could cause the cream to come out undesired. In this case, cream would spill into the mixing machine 6, which is to be avoided. It is illustrated on the Figures 11A, 11B , 11C .
- the clamping mechanism 54 is movable relative to the support 31 between an insertion position and a clamping position.

- the mixing machine 6 further comprises a guide wall 54.3, fixed (attached to the support 31, or even made in one piece with the latter), against which the clamping wheel 54.1 rolls or slides, and a clamping wall against which it is clamped in the clamping position.
- the clamping wall is advantageously a portion of the guide wall 54.3.
- the teeth 54.11 present on the clamping wheel 54.1 (in practice the wheel comprises a circular or substantially circular portion which pinches the first capsule 3 and a toothed portion, preferably under the circular portion) can cooperate in the teeth 54.31 in the wall of guide 54.3, so that the clamping wheel 54.1 rolls against the guide wall 54.3.
- the clamping wheel 54.1 has a rolling movement without slipping against the guide wall 54.3, which makes it possible to avoid slipping which could badly pinch the outlet passage 3.5.
- the distance between the clamping wheel 54.1 (except the teeth, that is to say the average distance) and the guide wall 54.3 can be reduced to become almost zero under the first capsule 3 while keeping a rolling movement against the guide wall 54.3.
- the clamping wheel 54.1 is mounted, preferably mounted rotatably, on an arm 54.5, which is itself rotatable around an axis of rotation of the arm 54.51.
- the arm 54.5 is integral with a pinion (or a pulley), or a portion of pinion 54.52, which is itself connected by various pinion or pulley to the common pinion 40.1. Consequently, the arm 54.5 is driven in rotation by the same auxiliary motor 40.
- the clamping wheel 54.1 is mounted to move in translation radially along the arm 54.5.
- Return means 54.4 arranged between the clamping wheel 54.1 and the arm 54.5 tend to move the clamping wheel 54.1 away from the axis of rotation of the arm 54.51 and therefore to press the clamping wheel 54.1 against the guide wall 54.3.
- a support intermediate which carries the axis of rotation 54.2 of the clamping wheel 54.1 is provided. It is he who is mobile in translation relative to the shaft 54.5.
- a slide connection with a pin 54.42 in the intermediate support which slides in a groove 54.53 of the shaft 54.5 makes it possible to guide the translation and also, advantageously, to limit the translation movement.
- the recall means 54.4 therefore operate in compression, insofar as by default they are not compressed (or only slightly).
- a coil spring, leaf spring, or other types of springs may be suitable.
- the clamping wheel 54.1 can remain pressed against the guide wall 54.3 even though the distance between the guide wall 54.3 and the axis of rotation of the arm 54.51 is variable (it can decrease towards the area where the exit passage 3.5 is located).
- the retention mechanism 50, the coupling mechanism 52 and the tightening mechanism 54 are driven concomitantly, by a common drive, as described according to the example embodiment below.
- the retention mechanism 50 is driven by a pinion 51, connected at least to another pinion 51.1 ( Figures 10A, 10B ).

- the clamping mechanism 54 is driven by a pinion portion 54.52.
- Different kinematic chains can be provided but a common pinion 40.1 is preferably provided, which then drives the other pinion 51.1 and the pinion portion 54.52.
- the common pinion 40.1 is located on the output shaft of the auxiliary motor 40. It directly engages the pinion 51.1 which is mounted on a shaft comprising another pinion 51.2. This pinion 51.2 engages the pinion portion 54.52.

- the reception device 5 is integrated into the mixing machine 6. Consequently, it suffices to insert the first or second capsules 3, 4 into the first or second reception slots 13, 14. even a reception housing 32, which corresponds to the volume occupied by the reception device 5.
- the actuating faces 8.1, 9.1 may not be present: the actuating members 37, 38 in this case bear directly on the first or second capsules 3, 4.
- At least one method for manufacturing a composition, such as a cosmetic product, using the manufacturing device 2 will now be described.
- This manufacturing process is broken down into several sub-processes (called “processes” for reasons of clarity), one or more variants of which will be described.
- a distinction is made in particular between a preliminary process Ep, an initialization process Ei, a mixing process Em, then a withdrawal process Er.

- the steps Ei1, Ei2 and Ei3 are executed in particular by the processor 45.1.
- the mixing machine 6 is ready to begin work on the first and second capsules 3, 4: this is the purpose of the mixing Em and withdrawal Er processes.
- the mixing process Em comprises a first step Em1 of the preparation phase ("primary step of setting the actuation system in motion"), during which the connecting weld of the capsule positioned furthest from the heating element 46 (the second capsule 4 in the figures), and this capsule is compressed so that its contents are partly sent to the capsule closest to the heating element 46.
- the second member actuation 38 is set in motion to break the bonding weld in the second capsule 4 (which includes for example the fatty phase formulation). In this way, part of the content of the second capsule 4 is sent to the side of the first capsule 3, in particular in the connecting passage 3.3 (because the connecting weld of the first capsule 3 is not yet broken).
- the second actuation member 38 is preferably set in motion along its actuation stroke C38. For reasons of design simplification, there is not necessarily a partial stroke sensor for the second actuator 38.
- step Em2 of the preparation phase (“secondary step of setting the actuation system in motion” or “prestressing step”)
- the first actuation member 37 is set in motion according to a partial stroke strictly less than its stroke actuation C37 and keeps its position, in order to exert a prestress on the first capsule 3 (which comprises for example the aqueous phase formulation) so that the flat face 3.7 is pressed against the diffusion plate 46.2.
- This prestress makes it possible to promote the heat exchange between the diffusion plate 46.2 and the first capsule 3 during a subsequent step Em3 (“heating step”).
- step Em3 of the preparation phase (“heating step”), the heating element 46 is activated to generate heat intended for the first capsule 3.
- the heating element 46 is positioned on the flat face side 3.7 of the first capsule 3, and that the prestressing step has allowed good thermal contact between the diffusion plate 46.2 and the first capsule 3, the heat supplied by the heating element 46 is well distributed over the contents of the first capsule 3.
- Step Em3 is therefore activated in the absence of any movement of the actuating members 37, 38.
- the temperature of the heating element 46 reaches a target temperature Tc of between 80°C and 90°C.
- the objective of this target temperature Tc is that the content of the first capsule 3 reaches a target temperature Tc′ also between 80° C. and 90° C. and preferably around 85° C.
- Tc′ also between 80° C. and 90° C. and preferably around 85° C.
- a step Em3′ of the kneading phase (“mixing step”), the heating element 46 is deactivated then the first actuating member 37 is set in motion according to its nominal stroke to break the connection weld in the first capsule 3. Cutting off the electrical power supply to the heating element 46 prior to the activation of the first actuating member 37 makes it possible to have all of the power supplied by the electrical power source available to supply the drive motor 39. Such a characteristic is particularly advantageous in the case where the mixing machine 6 is powered by a transformer power supply or a battery 44 of low power.
- the steps Em4, Em5, Em6 are successive mixing steps, with or without heating (we speak of the mixing phase).
- the mixing phase step Em4 (“mixing step without heating”) consists in setting the actuating members 37, 38 in motion back and forth without activating the heating element 46, i.e. i.e. without heating. During this step, the first and second capsules 3, 4 are deformed at least once each. According to one embodiment, step Em4 lasts at least 1.4 s and preferably between 2s and 4s. Such a step of mixing without heating makes it possible to launch the drive motor 39 at a constant speed while benefiting from all the power of the electrical power source.
- Steps Em1, Em2 and Em3, Em3′, Em4 alternate setting in motion of the actuation system 35 and heating with the heating element 46.
- This translates concretely into a power supply dedicated either to the actuation system 35 or to the heating element 46.
- This exclusive alternation makes it possible to preserve the battery 44 by distributing the moments of high power. Indeed, the engagement of the setting in motion generates a significant resistant torque which imposes a significant engine torque and the rise in temperature also requires a significant power: the battery 44 is then highly stressed.
- This alternating solution also makes it possible to reduce the size of components, which is a design constraint when creating a portable, battery-powered mixing machine.
- step Em5 the stresses on the battery 44 are reduced and allow a power supply to the heating element 46 and to the system of actuation 35 in parallel: this is the subject of step Em5.
- step Em5 of the mixing phase (“mixing step with heating”), the actuation system 35 remains activated and the heating element 46 is reactivated in order to maintain the mixture of the formulations at a temperature, which is preferably the target temperature Tc'. Therefore, the heating element is maintained at the target temperature Tc.
- This step Em5 lasts for example between 5s and 30s, preferably between 7s and 15s.
- the battery 44 is less stressed than for an engagement or a rise in temperature, it may tend to discharge quickly in this phase which is therefore limited in duration.
- this step Em5 is long enough for the first and second capsules 3, 4 to be deformed several times each and for the emulsion obtained by mixing the formulations to be satisfactory.
- step Em4 and Em5 the actuation system 35 has not been interrupted.
- step Em6 (“cooling step with mixing”) is implemented.
- this step is done without mixing, but it is preferable to keep the actuation system 35 activated to improve or maintain the homogenization of the formulations.
- the temperature of the cream decreases to a shrinkage temperature Tr' of between 35°C and 48°C, preferably 38°C and 42°C.
- the withdrawal temperature Tr' of the cream corresponds to a withdrawal temperature Tr of the heating element 46 of between 55°C and 60°C.
- This temperature difference between the contents of the first and second capsules 3, 4 and the temperature of the heating element 46 during the cooling step is explained in particular by the fact that, during mixing, the composition is not present only part of the time in the first capsule 3 and therefore opposite the diffusion plate 46.2 at the level of which the temperature measurement is carried out.
- the simplest technique for cooling is to turn off power to heating element 46 and allow the cream to cool with air to room temperature. Consequently, the duration of step Em6 effectively depends on the ambient temperature.
- a temperature sensor is advantageously positioned in the mixing machine 6, and more precisely in the reception device 5. In order to limit the number of temperature sensors, it is the same sensor which measures the temperature of the heating element 46.
- the temperature sensor measures the temperature of the heating element 46, the same sensor is reused: this means that the end of step Em6 is determined by the temperature measured by said sensor, c' that is to say the shrinkage temperature Tr' between 55°C and 60°C.
- the actuation system 35 is stopped.
- the cooling step Em6 generally lasts at least 20s and preferably 40s.
- step Em6 could also advantageously comprise a minimum mixing time, for example of the order of 40 s, making it possible to guarantee a good emulsion, then an additional mixing time which only occurs when the shrinkage temperature Tr' has not yet been reached. In other words, one kneads all the same for a certain duration even if the temperature is lower than the shrinkage temperature Tr′.
- the mixing machine 6 could according to an embodiment not shown include a cooling system to actively cool the cream and speed up the process.
- a cooling system could be provided with a small fan in addition or not to a cooling element, the fan forcing air circulation in the mixing machine 6, and therefore cooling by convection. forced.
- step Er1 transfer step for storage
- the actuation system 35 is activated once to transfer the cream into the capsule which is on the side of the heating element 46 (this is i.e. the first capsule 3 here).
- step Em6 has already stopped in the correct configuration.
- step Er2 (“pre-stressed maintenance step”), the actuation system 35 is returned to the pre-stressed position, where the first actuating member 37 exerts a pre-stress on the first capsule 3 to press it against the diffusion plate 46.2 , then, in a step Er3 (“temperature holding step”), the heating element 46 is reactivated to hold the cream at the withdrawal temperature Tr′.
- the prestressing maintenance stage Er2 allows better heat conduction, like the stage Em2.
- a kneading or movement of the actuation system 35 is implemented periodically during step Er3 to guarantee a good emulsion, the latter possibly being partly damaged by the presence of hot spots on the diffusion plate 46.2.
- the withdrawal method may comprise, instead of step step Er2, a step Er2'("step of maintaining in neutral position") in which the actuation system 35 is activated to be placed in the neutral position, that is to say without constraining the first or second capsules 3, 4, and in particular without constraining the first capsule 3 against the heating element 46.
- Step Er3 is implemented for a predetermined waiting period.
- This duration is less than 15 min, so as not to power the heating element 46 for too long, but greater than 1 min, to allow flexibility in the management of the user's time in the morning, and preferably of the order of 5 min.
- step Er4 step of receiving removal instructions
- step Er5 (“neutral position step”), the actuation system 35 is activated to be placed in the neutral position.
- the actuating system 35 In the case where the actuating system 35 was previously pre-stressed at the level of the first actuating member 37, the latter must complete its movement, which moves the formulation into the second capsule 4, then the actuating system 35 stops in the neutral position which corresponds to a position suitable for the extraction of the receiving device 5. This position also corresponds to a starting position suitable for carrying out a next manufacturing cycle implementing the method described above. Indeed, the second actuating member 38 is then ready to come and compress the second capsule 4 during step Em1 as soon as the drive motor 39 is started.
- step Er3 it may be necessary for the actuation system 35 has to go back and forth to position itself in the neutral position suitable for carrying out a next manufacturing cycle implementing the method previously described, that is to say with the second actuation member 38 ready to compress the second capsule 4 during step Em1.
- step Er6 (“unlocking step”), each mechanism activated in step Ei3 is placed in the insertion position. Similarly, this step Er6 involves activation of the auxiliary motor 40.
- the user grabs the receiving device 5 and removes it from its receiving housing 32. Then he presses on the actuating faces 8.1, 9.1 to rotate the paddles in order to drive out the cream present in the first and second capsule 3, 4 through the outlet passage 3.5 of the first capsule 3. Finally, it suffices to remove the first or second capsules 3, 4 from the receiving device 5 so that the latter is once again ready for use. Indeed, no part of the mixing machine 6 (manufacturing device 2 or receiving device) was in contact with the formulations.
