A dispensing device is provided for storing and dispensing a flowable, viscous material. A cartridge is provided for storing the material and includes a tube, a movable cup member located within the tube, an end wall having a nozzle opening covered with a removable seal and a nozzle. The nozzle is removably held within the cup member during storage. The dispensing device is formed by inserting the cartridge within the actuator. The actuator comprises a barrel, a trigger, a handle, a plunger and a resilient detent. The movement of the trigger causes the plunger to push the moveable member forward. The detent holds the plunger in place maintaining the flow of material.

An apparatus for dispensing a medium includes a cartridge in which a piston is movably receivable. An outlet is arranged in an outlet face of the cartridge for conveying the medium into a storage chamber of the cartridge. The piston includes a conveying side, a drive side disposed opposite the conveying side and at least one seal arranged at a side wall of the piston for providing a fluid-tight sealing between the piston and an inner cartridge wall. The cartridge includes a protrusion or a recess. The protrusion or the recess and the piston are arranged such that they can engage in such a way that, when the piston is arranged in a filling position, substantially no gas can be trapped between the outlet face, the conveying side of the piston and the seal facing the outlet face.

A container used in daily life comprises a container main body, and a pressure channel composed of a pressure transmission channel, a removal channel and an outflow channel connected in series. The pressure channel, attached to a wall of the container main body, has one end in communication with the removal channel and the other end connectable to a pressurizing component provided externally. The pressure transmission channel transmits pressure exerted on the inside of the pressure transmission channel by the pressurizing component provided externally, via a pressure transmission medium inside the channel. A wall of the removal channel is provided with a one-way valve allowing the contents to flow into the pressure channel. The one-way valve opens at the bottom on the inside of the container main body. The outflow channel is used for flowing out the contents from the container and preventing the contents flowing back.

Air purge device for an airless liquid product dispenser having a container equipped with means for sampling the product. The device has a bleed ring that has a deformable lip seal accommodated inside a protective part designed to be inserted into the container. The deformation of the lip when mounting the air purge device in the container causes the air to be purged from the container.

An apparatus for storing and/or for transporting, in particular, flat parts, including a storage device, which has a floor or floor sections, and a dividing structure, through which individual compartments lying alongside each other can be formed inside of the storage device where the floor or floor sections can be adjusted in height relative to the dividing structure and, for this purpose, the dividing structure has preferably delimiting elements between individual compartments of the storage device, where openings are configured in the delimiting elements and a lifting device is, for instance, provided for raising and/or lowering the floor, so that the parts between the delimiting elements are raised or lowered.

The invention relates to a cartridge device for lubricating a machine, preferably a clipping machine, having a pneumatic system and a pump unit driven by the pneumatic system, the cartridge device comprising a cartridge container for accommodating a supply of lubricant having a longitudinal axis defining a longitudinal direction, wherein the cartridge container comprises a first end portion and a second end portion located opposite the first end portion in the longitudinal direction, and a first closure element for detachably coupling the first end portion of the cartridge container to a suction side of the pump unit, wherein the first closure element has a delivery opening for supplying lubricant contained within the cartridge container to the suction side of the pump unit. The invention is characterized in that the first closure element is detachably coupleable to the first end portion of the cartridge container, the first end portion of the cartridge container being configured so as to allow a collapsible reservoir containing the supply of lubricant to be inserted into and removed from the cartridge container.

The present invention relates to an adjustable drinking cup that limits the risk of aspiration by retaining a neutral neck position or by permitting a patient to tuck their chin while drinking. The adjustable drinking cup has a continuous wall formed by an exterior and interior surface that extends between a top and bottom end. The continuous wall forms a top and bottom opening. A plunger is received within the bottom opening. During use the patient fills the adjustable drinking cup with a liquid and after a predetermined amount of liquid is consumed the plunger is pressed upwards to raise the liquid to a predetermined position near the top opening. This is repeated each time a predetermined amount of liquid is consumed.

Apparatus for holding a food product and allowing a user to consume the food product without contact including a container. The container presents a base, a front wall, a rear wall, and sidewalls. The apparatus further includes a sleeve. The sleeve includes a top portion, a bottom portion, and sidewalls. The top portion, bottom portion, and sidewalls form an interior. The container stores a food product such as a sandwich and an article such as tissue paper. The sleeve slidably receives the container. A user slides open the container from the sleeve and removes the food product. Subsequently, the user places the food product through the interior with support from the front wall. The user slides the container in the interior from one end to another end of the sleeve while consuming the food product. The apparatus allows the user to consume the food product without contacting the food product.

A cartridge for an adhesive or a coating, the cartridge including a head part having an outlet, the head part being integrally formed with a cartridge wall. The outlet has one, two or more outlet passages formed therein. A valve is disposed in each one of the one, two or more outlet passages, with the valve being axially and radially fixed in position relative to the head part at a peripheral portion of the valve.

The container for a molded food product is provided with a hollow body including a bottom wall and a side wall extending from the bottom wall to a wide end provided with a discharge opening. The bottom wall has an outer edge extending around a longitudinal axis of the container and a venting device manually operable to define one or more vent holes in the bottom wall. The venting device includes a push member provided with an actuation portion and at least one first hinge adjacent to the actuation portion. The push member is longitudinally movable between an initial proximal position, in which the vent holes are closed by corresponding closing members, and a predetermined distal position, in which the vent holes are open.
