There is an individualized medical treatment shampoo for skin diseases of pet animals, but since the amount of concentrate discharged by the dispensing mechanism is constant, the number of operations of the dispensing mechanism is increased when increasing the concentration. Many times, it takes time and effort to fill the desired amount of concentrate. Also, depending on how the dispensing mechanism is operated, there is a tendency for differences in the discharge amount of the concentrate, which may lead to formulation errors such as an increase in the amount of concentrate that is incompatible with the personal constitution, or a decrease in the amount. It is difficult to produce an appropriate amount of an individualized solution having components or characteristics suitable for the personal constitution. In addition, about 90% of the total volume of individualized medicinal treatment shampoos is premix basic shampoo, but it is unfit for people with allergies caused by the ingredients, and the basic composition ingredients are changed. I can't.

  In addition, the apparatus for mechanically filling the shampoo is suitable for manufacturing a large amount of shampoos of the same component. However, when manufacturing a shampoo for personal use in small lot units, the solution stored in the solution storage unit is used. Every time you replace the solution, the solution remaining in the solution storage section, nozzle, supply path, etc. must be washed away, and if the parts are not cleaned enough, solutions of components that are incompatible with the personal constitution may be mixed There are chemical changes that occur when solutions of different components are mixed, or depending on the person, solutions of incompatible components may cause allergies.

  Next, the identification information of the filling container B transported to each filling position is read by the information reading device 7, the identification information of the filling container B that has been read, and the identification information of the filling container B stored in the information storage device 6 Are compared in the filling control device 8, and the solutions Aa to Af stored in the solution storage units 2a to 2f at the respective filling positions and the designated solutions Aa to Af corresponding to the identification information are the same. Is determined by the filling control device 8.

  When it is determined that the solution is the same as the solution Aa designated in advance, when the filling container B is conveyed or stopped at the filling position for filling the solution Aa, the filling device 4 at the filling position for filling the solution Aa is independently set. Driven, the solution Aa stored in the solution storage unit 2a is discharged from the nozzle 4a, and the individual filling container B is filled with a preset filling amount. At this time, the type and filling amount of the solution Aa are displayed on the display device 9 of FIG. 2, and the filling state of the solution Aa can be visually confirmed.

  Subsequently, when the filling container B is transported or stopped to each filling position where the solutions Ab to Af are filled, each filling position is based on the identification information of the filling container B read by the information reading device 7 as described above. It is determined whether or not the solutions Ab to Af stored in the solution storage units 2b to 2f are the same as the designated solutions Ab to Af corresponding to the identification information.

  When it is determined that the solution is the same as the previously designated solutions Ab to Af, the filling device 4 at the filling position for filling the solutions Ab to Af is independently driven in the same manner as described above. As shown, the individual filling container B is filled with a preset filling amount. At this time, the types and filling amounts of the solutions Ab to Af are displayed on the display device 9 of FIG. 2, and the filling status of the solutions Aa to Af can be visually confirmed.

  On the other hand, when filling the solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, Af of the components according to the personal constitution or according to the request and preference and not filling the other solutions Ab, Ae, the solutions Aa, Ac in the same manner as above. , Ad, Af identification information and filling amount information are input by the information input device 5 and are associated with each other and stored in the information storage device 6 of the filling control device 8 individually.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 8, when the filling container B is transported or stopped at each filling position where the solutions Aa to Af are filled, the identification information of the filling container B read by the information reading device 7 is used. Whether the solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, Af stored in the solution storage units 2a, 2c, 2d, 2f at the filling position are the same as the designated solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, Af corresponding to the identification information Is determined by the filling control device 8.

  When it is determined that the solution is the same as the previously designated solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, Af, the filling devices 4 at each filling position for filling the solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, Af are independently driven, and the solution storage unit The solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, Af stored in 2a, 2c, 2d, 2f are filled into individual filling containers B by a preset filling amount.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the type is different from the designated solution Aa, Ac, Ad, Af, even if the filling container B is transported or stopped at the filling position for filling the solution Ab, Ae removed from the designation, Without driving the filling device 4 at the filling position for filling the solutions Ab and Ae, stopping or waiting, without filling the filling container B with the non-designated solutions Ab and Ae stored in the solution storage units 2b and 2e, As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the pre-designated solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, and Af are transported to the closing process (not shown) while filling the filling container B by a preset filling amount, and the filled filling is completed Since the opening of the container B is closed with a lid member (not shown), the individualized solution A having the components or characteristics suitable for the individual's constitution or according to the preference and preference can be individually produced in small lots. .

  In addition, after filling or at the time of use, a plurality of solutions Ab to Af are mixed and used substantially uniformly by rotating, vibrating or shaking the filled container. And in order to mix several solution Ab-Af, it fills in the state which an unfilled space remains. The reduced amount of the solutions Ab, Ae is filled so that the filling container B is in an expired state by increasing the filling amount of the solutions Aa, Ac, Ad, Af, or supplementing with a solution other than the above. .

  When a shampoo, which is an example of the individualized solution A, is manufactured individually, the main role of a commercially available shampoo is to remove the unpleasant odor by using a surfactant or the like to remove hair stains. Some of them contain ingredients that add moisture if added. In addition, for convenience, there are those that contain an appropriate amount of a thickening agent that gives the shampoo an appropriate viscosity, or an appropriate amount of a color or scent that matches the image.

  In other words, many shampoos are mainly formulated with surface-active solutions (including solvents) in order to have a stain-removing effect, but there are many types of solutions that can be used by individuals. A plurality of solutions Aa to Af are freely selected from among the solutions Aa to Af and other solutions (not shown) according to the personal constitution, desire, or preference. Moreover, as long as it can be used in combination, two or three types may be selected and mixed.

  In the same manner as described above, a moisturizing component, if necessary, a dye for coloring and a fragrance for fragrance are selected, and a person who does not need fragrance or coloring need not be selected at all. When a shampoo having a high viscosity is preferred, a solution containing a component for increasing the viscosity, for example, a thickener is also selected (some of the solutions have a viscosity in advance). When a shampoo having a low viscosity is preferred, for example, a desired amount of water or purified water is mixed to weaken the viscosity.

  Next, the filling amounts of the solutions Aa to Af are adjusted within a predetermined range. Note that, for example, the cleaning component “0” does not function as a shampoo, so a certain amount of the appropriate amount of the surfactant having the cleaning component needs to be indicated as a guide.

  As described above, since the individualized solution A such as the shampoo can be manufactured individually and appropriately according to the personal constitution or according to the desire and preference, there are the following advantages. In other words, during the rainy season and in summer, there is much moisture, so there is no need for a moisturizing component. On the contrary, in dry seasons such as winter, the hair dries and gets dry, so it is necessary to increase the amount of the moistening component. And in the shampoo until now, the preparation amount of solution Aa-Af can be adjusted for every season according to an individual's request and liking. Further, for example, the types and filling amounts of the solutions Aa to Af can be arbitrarily set according to temperature, humidity, season, place, time, and the like.

  Also, there are people who add perfume later on as to the scent, and sometimes it feels unnecessary because it mixes with the scent of the perfume. Do you choose the solution Aa to Af of the scent component according to your personal preference? Unnecessary scent component solutions Aa to Af can be removed, or the amount of the solution Aa to Af can be freely increased or decreased.

  In addition, a person who has allergies (including atopy) can select or designate one of the solutions Aa to Af one by one. If desired, medicinal ingredients may be prepared in advance.

  In addition, for example, surfactants and chemicals that are not good for hair are not formulated, but solutions Aa to Af of natural ingredients suitable for hair such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, elastin, plant extracts, etc. An appropriate amount can be prepared accordingly.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the upper or lower liquid boundary line of the solutions Aa to Af displayed on the display device 9 is moved to a desired position, and the surfactant constituting any of the solutions Aa to Af is moved. The amount can be increased or decreased, or a desired amount of a surfactant can be filled, etc. to prepare a personalized solution A having a desired cleaning effect.

  In addition, the amount of hyaluronic acid constituting any one of the solutions Aa to Af may be increased or decreased, or filled with a desired amount, etc. to prepare a personalized solution A having a moisturizing effect as desired. it can. Moreover, the color according to the request can be prepared by increasing or decreasing the amount of the colorant or by filling a colorant of a desired color.

  Moreover, the amount of the fragrance can be increased or decreased, or the fragrance having a favorite fragrance can be filled, so that the odor can be prepared according to demand. Further, the viscosity can be adjusted to a desired value by increasing or decreasing the amount of the thickening agent or filling a thickening agent having a desired viscosity.

  In addition, the concentration can be adjusted to a desired level by increasing or decreasing the amount of diluted liquid such as purified water, natural water, natural vegetable oil, etc., or filling a diluted liquid having a desired concentration. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the filling amount of the solutions Aa to Af constituting the individualized solution A is regulated by the filling control device 8 within a range suitable for maintaining the effects or characteristics of the individualized solution A. You can also

  The above shampoos include, for example, coconut oil fatty acid derivatives, alanone, squalane, cypress oil, tea tree, hydrolyzed collagen, aloe vera trehalose, allantoin, hydrolyzed keratin, polypeptide, chitin chitosan, collagen polypeptide, ginkgo, plant extract, quencher It can manufacture with the solution Aa-Af which consists of components, such as an acid and a coconut fatty acid hydrolyzed collagen.
