The proximal portion may be connected to the attachment and the distal portion may include a first sealed seam. The fluid reservoir main body may be flexible and configured to dispense fluid from the fluid reservoir when a negative pressure is applied to a fluid reservoir interior side. An attachment diameter may be equal or equivalent to a proximal portion diameter.

A discharge device capable of suppressing pressure fluctuation of a compressed gas supplied to a container in which a liquid material is stored. The device includes a storage container in which a liquid material is stored; a discharge port through which the liquid material is discharged; a pressure control valve that adjusts a pressure of a compressed gas supplied from an external compressed gas source to a desired level; a discharge valve that establishes or cuts off communication between the pressure control valve and the storage container; a control device that controls operation of the discharge valve; a first flow line connecting the pressure control valve and the discharge valve; and a second flow line connecting the discharge valve and the storage container. The device further includes a third flow line branched from the first flow line, and a leak mechanism connected to the third flow line.

A portable electric (battery) powered paint system designed to worn in a typical workman's tool belt and thus accompany the painter as he moves from wall to wall and room to room without the restriction of electrical cords plugged into wall outlets. The invention consists of a paint reservoir, an electric paint pump, a power pack of two or more 18 Volt batteries, a paint applicator and associated paint supply tubing for transfer of paint from the reservoir to the paint applicator. The invention provides the painter with a self-contained powered painting system.

An assembly can be used for packaging chemical compounds. The assembly includes a foil pack for storage of a one-component or multicomponent compound, and a dispensing device for the foil pack. The foil pack has at least one elongated foil bag designed to be non-rigid, and one rigid head part having at least one fastening portion for one end of the foil bag and an outlet opening for discharge of the compound, where the dispensing device has at least one receptacle for pushing in the at least one film bag. The at least one elongated foil bag has, in a filled condition, the form of a truncated cone, the diameter of which narrows in the direction of a longitudinal axis, starting from the respective fastening portion.

A cartridge for a viscous-material dispenser includes a cylinder and a plunger axially slidably fitted in the cylinder and dividing the cylinder into a filling chamber and a pressurizing chamber and includes a plurality of solid spacers in an annular gap between the plunger and the cylinder for maintaining a minimum spacing between the plunger and the cylinder. The spacers at least partially define a plurality of passages that fluidically connect the filling and pressurizing chambers and are configured such that a first portion of the viscous material extending from the filling chamber into the plurality of passages forms a seal together with the solid spacers to prevent a second portion of the viscous material located in the filling chamber from entering the plurality of passages.
