20180002098 · 2018-01-04 ·

A dispenser (10) for dispensing a flowable material M has a first container (12) configured to contain the flowable material M. The first container (12) is configured to be fracturable in response to a force applied thereto. A second container (14) has a first open end and a second closed end wherein the first container (12) is contained within the second container (14). The dispenser (10) further has an applicator assembly (16) operably positioned in the first open end of the second container (14) and defining a juncture therebetween. A connector member (18) is positioned proximate the juncture wherein the connector member (18) provides a compressive force proximate the juncture.

Dispenser actuator assembly

A dispenser actuator assembly (100) has base member (102) and an actuator arm (104) that is configured to crush a glass ampoule assembly (10). The glass ampoule assembly (10) has a rupturable glass ampoule (12) containing a flowable material (M). The glass ampoule (12) is contained within an outer container (14), the outer container (14) having a first open end (22) and a second closed end (24). The glass ampoule assembly (10) has an applicator (16) positioned in the first open end (22). The dispenser actuator assembly (100) has the base member (102) that is configured to mount on the outer container (14). The actuator arm (104) is pivotally connected to the base member (102). The actuator arm (104) is pivotable from a first position to a second position that is configured to engage the outer container (14) to crush the glass ampoule (12) wherein the flowable material (M) is dispensed from the glass ampoule assembly (10).
