Provided is a dust stop device for a sealed kneader, the device being capable of excellent supply of lubricating oil. The sealed kneader includes a pair of rotors and a supporting member. The dust stop device includes a rotating ring attached to each rotor and a stationary ring attached to the supporting member. Both the rings have respective contact surfaces which make surface contact with each other. The stationary ring has a lubricating-oil supply portion with a through-hole. A part of the through-hole, the part including a part opened in the contact surface, is a long hole extending along a circumferential direction of rotation of the rotating ring.

An example system is used to mix components and dispense a mixture for forming a thiol-ene polymer article. The system includes a first reservoir containing a first component of the thiol-ene polymer including a first polymerizable compound, and a second reservoir containing a second component of the thiol-ene polymer including a second polymerizable compound. The system also includes a mixing vessel having a mixing chamber, a delivery manifold providing a conduit for fluid from the first and second reservoirs to the mixing vessel, and a dispensing manifold providing a conduit for fluid from the mixing vessel. The system also includes a control module programmed to control the operation of the system.

The invention relates to a mixer insert having a support rod element and at least one vortexing element and a rotary drive connection structure, wherein the mixer insert, for insertion into a tubular passage element, and together therewith, is adapted to a device for mixing at least two fluid components to be placeable by means of the rotary-drive connection structure in drive connection with a driveshaft of the device, when the mixer insert is inserted into the passage element and the passage element is placed in fluid-tight flow connection with at least two component feed lines of the device, characterized in that the rotary-drive connection structure has a bore hole having a bore hole wall which are adapted to a thread on the driveshaft in such a manner that the bore hole, for producing the drive connection, can be screwed onto the thread, wherein the bore hole wall is shaped by the thread. The invention also relates to such a device for mixing and also to a system of such a device and such a mixer insert.

Provided is a hydraulic drive device, wherein the hydraulic drive device is provided with: a cylinder (101); a rod (103); a piston (102); a hydraulic pump (107); a tank (113); a valve (106) that can be switched between a positive state of connecting the hydraulic pump (107) and a head chamber (101h) and connecting a rod chamber (101r) and the tank (113), and a negative state of connecting the hydraulic pump (107) and the rod chamber (101r) and connecting the head chamber (101h) and the tank (113); and a confluence channel (114) at which, when the valve (106) is in the positive state, at least a portion of hydraulic oil going from the rod chamber (101r) to the tank (113) is merged into hydraulic oil going from the hydraulic pump (107) to the head chamber (101h).

[Problem to be Solved] After being filled into a mold, a mixed material will be cured while gradually foaming and expanding.

[Solution] The equipment is provided with supply parts 1, 2 of two types of chemical liquids A, B and a mixer 3 for mixing two types of the chemical liquids supplied from the chemical liquid supply parts 1, 2. And, a storage tank 8 of gas which is to be dissolved in the stored chemical liquid A under pressure is connected to one of chemical liquid storage tanks, that is, the chemical liquid storage tank 4 at the chemical liquid supply part 1, in an instant when a mixed material of the chemical liquids A, B is externally discharged, a dissolved gaseous component is allowed to foam. Thereby, the soft mixed material before the curing reaction can be cured completely after being filled into a mold in a foaming and expanding state.
