A delivery system is provided that includes a device having a body extending along a longitudinal axis between proximal and distal ends. The body includes a proximal chamber, a distal chamber and a wall between the chambers. The body includes a first port in communication with the proximal chamber and a second port in communication with the distal chamber. A shaft is movably positioned within the body. The shaft extends through the wall and includes a proximal plunger positioned within the proximal chamber and a distal plunger positioned within the distal chamber. Pressure introduced through an opening in the proximal end moves the shaft such that the proximal plunger moves a fluid within the proximal chamber out of the first port and the distal plunger moves a fluid within the distal chamber out of the second port to simultaneously actuate a bone filler dispenser. Systems and methods are also provided.

A system for mixing two or a plurality of material components, for example for applying onto electronic circuit boards, having a pressure-regulated buffer store downstream of the mixing unit so that a mixing material is pressurized regardless of the quantity contained in the buffer store, even if the inflow and outflow in the buffer store change dynamically.

A system for mixing fire-suppressant gel with water on board an aircraft includes a gel reservoir mounted in the aircraft, a pump for injecting gel into a flow of water into an aircraft-mounted payload tank, and a control system for controlling gel-water mix ratios. The control system monitors water volume flowing into the water tank, and regulates the gel pump to inject gel in appropriate amounts to produce gel-water emulsions having precise gel-water ratios. Settings for the control system are set by the pilot before water flow water is initiated. Once the aircraft is in flight, the gel-water mixing process is automatically controlled through a trigger on the pilot's control stick. The aircraft may be a helicopter or fixed-wing aircraft adapted to load water from a lake or other source while in flight, or a fixed-wing aircraft adapted to load water on land from a pressurized water source.

The present disclosure relates to a mixer for mixing pasty components, comprising a mixing case extending along a longitudinal axis and having at least one inlet, preferably two inlets, and an outlet, and comprising at least one mixing element received in the mixing case, which defines a plurality of chambers together with the mixing case, said chambers being arranged successively and/or adjacently along a flow path from the inlets to the outlet. The chambers are defined by transverse walls, each extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis, and four side walls that each extend parallel to the longitudinal axis, and adjacent chambers are interconnected by a flow by means of through-openings provided in the side walls, the mixing element comprising two strips forming side walls, which are connected by a web that forms other side walls and is perpendicularly arranged in relation to the strips, a first group of chambers having first through-openings arranged in the web, which extend up to a strip, and a second group of chambers comprising second through-openings positioned at a distance to at least one strip in the web.

The invention relates to continuous methods for compounding and applying adhesives, characterized in that (i) a base component of the adhesive is mixed continuously with at least one aggregate so as to produce a compounded adhesive; and (ii) the adhesive compounded in this manner is applied to a substrate. The invention also relates to such methods where a device as described here is used to carry out the method.

A transmission mechanism suitable for a double-rotating paint mixing machine, comprising a rotating spindle installed on a rack, a pressing spindle installed in the rotating spindle, a guide rail frame fixed at a front end of the rotating spindle, an upper supporting arm and a lower supporting arm, and an upper pressing disc and a lower pressing disc, which are installed on the upper supporting arm and the lower supporting arm and are capable of rotating, wherein the rotating spindle can drive the entire guide rail frame to rotate along the axis of the rotating spindle, meanwhile the upper pressing disc can be driven by a transmission system to rotate around its own axis at the same time, wherein the rotating spindle is engaged with and disengaged from the driving wheel through a driving disc locking device.

Dispensing system for dispensing a mixture of a first component and a second component, the dispensing system comprising: (i) a dispensing gun comprising an inlet body with a first passage for feeding in the first component under pressure and a second passage for feeding in the second component under pressure, the first and second passages respectively comprising a closable first outlet and a closable second outlet, which may be operable by means of a handle or trigger of the dispensing gun; (ii) a static mixing nozzle, detachably connectable to the outlets of the body and provided for mixing and dispensing the components, the static mixing nozzle comprising a first section containing a first chamber and a second chamber for conducting the first and second component respectively and a second section, subsequent to the first section (in forwards flow direction), containing a mixing chamber with static mixing elements which promote mixing the first and second components and conducting the mixture to a nozzle tip serving as an outlet for the mixture. According to the invention, at least one of the first and second chambers of the static mixing nozzle contains a series of static backflow prevention elements, arranged for hindering backflow of the respective component within the respective chamber.

Various methods and systems are provided for mixing and dispensing viscous materials for the creation of additive structures. As one example, during a mixing and dispensing operation with a mixing and dispensing head of a multi-dimensional printing apparatus, linear movement of a mixing rod positioned within a mixing chamber of the mixing and dispensing head, at least along a central axis of the mixing chamber, is adjusted based on an operating condition of the printing apparatus and dispensing of mixed liquids from the mixing and dispensing head is stopped by stopping one or more pumps fluidly coupled to the mixing chamber and linearly moving the mixing rod upward and away from a dispensing nozzle of the mixing and dispensing head.
