A variety of dispensing manifolds which are removable connectable to a single deformable container having a single exit portion are disclosed. The dispensing manifolds of the present disclosure provide a single deformable container having a single exit with one or more outlets from which a fluid can be controllably dispensed. The present disclosure also provides a single force generation mechanism, a deformable container holding a fluid or substance, and dispensing mechanisms all on one machine, i.e., a carrier; a system that may also include a pressurized air source that assists a flow of a fluid; and a system that allows for a continuous flow a substance. The systems of the present disclosure provide a deformable container and a method of dispensing wherein, during dispensing, an actuation member is continuously free of contact with the fluid or substance within the container and the actuation member only contacts the exterior surface of the deformable container.

An apparatus for application of a composition to a surface, the apparatus comprising: receptacle(s) for all component(s) of the composition in one or multiple parts; an applicator pad configured for dispensing the composition onto the surface; and at least one integrated light source operable to illuminate the surface while the surface is contacted with the applicator pad. Methods for using the apparatus include a method for disinfecting a skin surface wherein the composition is an antimicrobial skin prep solution comprising at least one fluorescing agent and the at least one integrated light source operates to visually evaluate coverage of the skin prep solution

Medical adhesive applicators are disclosed which allow medical adhesives to have long storage life and be easily dispensed in a controlled manner. In one embodiment, the applicator has a frangible glass vial with the medical adhesive. The frangible glass vial is held in a plastic enclosure with a dispensing tip. Attached to the plastic enclosure is a squeeze tube capable of imparting air pressure into the enclosure. To dispense medical adhesive quickly and with precision, one simply breaks the frangible glass vial and pushes on the squeeze tube. In another embodiment, the applicator has a proximal chamber containing medical adhesive, a distal chamber for dispensing medical adhesive and one or more rupturable membranes between them. To achieve long shelf life, the applicator chambers and membrane(s) are formed from fluorinated plastic. To dispense medical adhesive, one ruptures the membrane(s) and pushes on the sides of the proximal chamber.

An applicator for a fluid ingredient includes at least one storage chamber, at least one first predetermined breaking point or line configured in or at the storage chamber, and an actuation mechanism. The storage chamber has an outlet end with an initially sealed outlet via which a fluid ingredient can be output. The actuation mechanism is arranged at the storage chamber, and has at least one activation part capable of being displaced relative to the outlet end and by which at least one part or section of the storage chamber is capable of being axially displaced to activate the at least one first predetermined breaking point or line, on an activation of the applicator.

A method of removing a glutinous substance from an applicator comprises removing a plunger before the glutinous substance has solidified; allowing the glutinous substance to solidify inside the applicator; detaching a side cover from a base portion of a first body portion to expose a first sealant plug; severing the first sealant plug from a second sealant plug; severing the first sealant plug from a third sealant plug; detaching a tip portion of the applicator from a second body portion to expose a portion of the second sealant plug; extracting the second sealant plug from the second body portion by pulling the portion of the second sealant plug in a direction along the second body portion; separating the first sealant plug from the base portion of the first body portion; and extracting the third sealant plug from an end-effector interface of the first body portion.

A dispenser system for applying multi-component adhesives or like substances to work surfaces in carpeting, roofing and like applications as well as a method of dispensing and applying multi-component adhesives to work surfaces.

A glue coating device for laying stealth optical cables, comprising an outer housing and an inner housing sheathed inside the outer housing. A glue chamber is provided inside the inner housing. One end of the outer housing is a mounting end and the other end is a glue injection end by which the device is mounted on a glue injection gun. A glue injection zone is provided at an end surface of the glue injection end and runs through the glue chamber. The glue injection end has a front preprocessor which comprises two separating and guiding sides forming an angle of 120 therebetween and protruding from the outer housing. A cable positioning groove is provided on the end surface of the outer housing. The device is simple in structure, convenient for constructing, and provides quantitative glue injection and has a favorable coating effect.

A dispenser system for applying multi-component adhesives or like substances to work surfaces in carpeting, roofing and like applications as well as a method of dispensing and applying multi-component adhesives to work surfaces.

An apparatus and a method for applying a liquid active substance onto surfaces moving in a circulating manner, including a metering unit with a pipe system and an application unit. The active substance is conducted to the application unit by the metering unit, and the application unit has a pad with an open-pore mesh structure for receiving and storing the active substance and for applying the active substance onto a moving surface as a film as a function of the degree of saturation and the contact pressure of the pad on the moving surface. Brackets fix the pad in a working position when pushed together and are capable of being pulled apart to exchange the pad. Also, the use of the apparatus for keeping the moving surfaces free from deposits, accumulations or contaminants.

An applicator pen for discharging a liquid onto a surface, preferably for applying a protective layer onto adhesive surfaces of a vehicle, in particularly for improved adhesion in the case of bonding applications, the applicator pen including a hollow body and an ampoule received in the hollow body, including a peripheral surface, for receiving the liquid, wherein the ampoule is able to be broken to enable the liquid to escape, wherein a breakage device is provided with an axially movable portion and is realized in such a manner that a movement of the movable portion in the axial direction results in the breaking of the ampoule.
