A member coupling mechanism capable of coupling two members using a necessary tightening force even in a limited space by a small and simple configuration. A member coupling mechanism includes a first member including a member coupling portion having an open apical surface, a second member coupled to the member coupling portion of the first member, an elastic sealing member inserted between the first member and the second member to seal an opening of the apical surface of the member coupling portion, a coupling member that couples the first member and the second member together, and an acting portion that exerts a force on the coupling member.

A cartridge for a medium to be dispensed is disclosed. The cartridge includes a head part having a dispensing outlet, and a film forming a cartridge wall. The film bounds a cartridge chamber for the medium to be dispensed, and extends at least partially in a longitudinal direction of the cartridge. The film has a front end that is connected to the head part. The is a multilayer film having at least two layers formed from different materials. The front end of the film is sealingly and non-releasably embedded in the head part of the cartridge, such that an end face of the front end of the film is covered by the head part. A method of manufacturing a cartridge having a head part using a mold is also disclosed.

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 handheld applicator for delivery of post-treatment coating following application of a conversion coating includes a first vessel extending longitudinally and containing Socosurf PACS solution, a second vessel extending longitudinally and containing hydrogen peroxide, a pH indicator contained in one of the first or second vessels, a mixing region configured to combine the Socosurf PACS solution, hydrogen peroxide, and pH indicator.

A reusable apparatus for storing and delivering a sterile product. The apparatus includes a compressible reservoir adapted to allow for filling, storing, and delivering the sterile product, and a sterile inlet and outlet device including an inlet portion and an outlet portion. The sterile inlet and outlet device is connected to the compressible reservoir and adapted to allow the sterile product to be filled from exterior to the reusable apparatus and into the compressible reservoir through the inlet portion and adapted to allow the sterile product to be delivered from the compressible reservoir through the outlet portion.

A container system comprising a hollow body defined by a continuous outer peripheral wall having a first cavity and a second cavity opposing the first cavity and separated by a dividing wall, a neck opening into the first cavity and a wider open mouth at the end opposing the neck for receiving a base container therein having a lid that engages the inner surface of the outer peripheral wall to secure the base container in the mouth and substantially seal the second cavity.

A cosmetic portioning machine is provided having a mixing chamber, with a plurality of radially-disposed inlets, each of which provides an ingredient. A piston disposed in the mixing chamber defines a mixing volume. A dasher may be disposed in the mixing chamber to mix the ingredients together in the mixing volume so as to form a cosmetic. When the cosmetic product is thoroughly mixed, the piston urges the product out of the mixing chamber and through an outlet. A moveable sealing member is configured to pass through the outlet so as to seal off fluid communication between the mixing chamber and the outlet and to urge any remaining cosmetic product through the outlet.

Varied embodiments of a container/dispenser having a multi-chamber bellows member having a plurality of collapsible bellows chambers allowing more than one substance to be contained within the container and simultaneously dispensed when a sufficient axial force is exerted on a platform to compress the bellows member forcing flowable materials from each chamber. In an alternative embodiment, the present invention discloses a retrofit multi-chambered bellows container, which may be adapted to a standard caulking tube container.

Methods, apparatus, devices and systems for mixing and dispensing multi-component materials. The mixing and dispensing may be performed using a mobile, enclosed dispenser that can be used to supply a mixed multi-component material at the point of use. In some embodiments, the components to be mixed into the multi-component material may be supplied in cartridges.

A re-mixing dispenser for containing and dispensing a liquid. The dispenser may have one or more tubes, each containing a different liquid. At least one of the liquids may be re-mixed in situ, using a special two-piece plunger and plunger rod. A mixing piece of the two-piece plunger is moveable independently of a top piece and has blades that allow it to move through the liquid. A plunger rod is removably attached to the mixing piece and is operable to move the mixing piece up and down within the tube during mixing. The two plunger pieces are joined and moved as a single plunger during dispensing.
