The dispensing assembly () further includes ejector means (), which are designed to push the capsule () towards the outside of the capsule holder () according to the displacement of the capsule holder () towards its spaced position from the injector device (). The ejector means () are mechanically constrained to the actuation linkage by means of a mechanical connection.
