A mixing machine configured to receive a receiving device in order to form a mixing machine, the manufacturing apparatus comprising: a support defining a receiving housing, having a first receiving location configured to receive a first deformable capsule and a second receiving location configured to receive a second deformable capsule, the first and second capsules fluidly linked and respectively containing a first formulation and a second formulation, an actuation system movable relative to the support inside the receiving housing, comprising a first actuation member positioned on one side of the receiving housing and movable thereinside, in order to transmit a pressure force on the first capsule, along a first actuation stroke, a second actuation member positioned on another side, preferably an opposite side, of the receiving housing and movable thereinside, in order to transmit a pressure force on the second capsule, along a second actuation stroke, in which the first actuation stroke has a different length from the second actuation stroke.

The disclosure relates to an application device for multi-component substances, in particular multi-component adhesives or multi-component sealants, including: at least two cartridge receiving devices for receiving replaceable cartridges with substance components that are to be mixed; a discharging device for discharging the substance components from the cartridges; a mixing device for mixing the substance components, wherein the mixing device includes a rotary mixer which is driven via a drive shaft, the drive shaft having at least one flexible portion with a first end and a second end.

The invention relates to a piston, in particular, for use as a discharge and/or locking piston of a cartridge comprising a base body (25) having a lateral wall provided with sealants (14, 17) and a front-end wall having a vent (21). A locking element (18) is mounted rotatable in the vent (21), whereby a venting channel (23, 24) can be opened or closed by the relative rotation of the locking element (18) in the vent (21). Additionally, the invention relates to a cartridge configuration having such a piston.

A system for mixing a sample with a combined buffer includes a sampler body, the sampler body including a first reservoir and a second reservoir. The system further includes a first separator forming a first enclosure with the sampler body for the first reservoir. The system further includes a second separator forming a second enclosure with the sampler body for the first reservoir. The system further includes a third separator, in conjunction with the second separator, forming a third enclosure and a fourth enclosure, respectively, both in conjunction with the sampler body, for the second reservoir.

A device mixes bone cement and stores parent components of the bone cement. The device has a cartridge comprising an interior, that is closed on one side by a movable delivery plunger, a receptacle comprising side walls for receiving a monomer liquid container that are closed at least in some regions. The receptacle has at least one deformable closed side wall, a screen and/or a filter arranged below the receptacle so that the contents of the opened monomer liquid container flow through the screen and/or the filter. The device further has a connecting line through which the monomer liquid is to be routed into the interior of the cartridge, a hollow cylinder which is connected to the connecting line and which is connected to the receptacle by way of a fluid connection so that the hollow cylinder is arranged in a fluid line between the receptacle and the interior of the cartridge. A pump plunger is arranged in the hollow cylinder, which is axially displaceable in the hollow cylinder, and an opening device, which is movably mounted against the deformable side wall of the receptacle. The opening device extends into the hollow cylinder, wherein, by pressing the pump plunger into the hollow cylinder, the opening device is to be pressed against the deformable side wall of the receptacle so that the deformable side wall deforms such that a monomer liquid container located in the receptacle is to be opened by the pressure of the opening device.

A dispensing apparatus simultaneous discharges at least two flowable components of a multi-component mass from different storage volumes. The dispensing apparatus includes a passive mixing unit having a central mixing passage extending along a flow direction and being configured to guide the components mixed with one another, and including at least two inlets opening into the central mixing passage, the inlets being associated with the same storage volume and open into the mixing passage at different positions along the flow direction.

An application device for materials, in particular adhesives, including at least one cartridge receiving device for receiving a replaceable cartridge which contains a material and has a material outlet opening; a rotary device for metering or mixing the material, rotary device having a first engagement element; a drive device for driving the rotary device, the drive device having a rod which is mounted in a rotatable and axially movable manner and has a second engagement element at the end face; and a gearing unit for driving the rod in order to bring the first and the second engagement element into engagement with each other.

A mixing device, in particular for bone cement, in which at least two ampoules provided with a septum are pushed onto needles, in parallel to each other, for discharging the liquid.

The invention provides a multi-compartment container for storing and dispensing separately a plurality of consumable liquids that can be mixed in an accurate and repeatable manner. Each storage compartment within the container encloses a predetermined quantity of a consumable liquid, wherein the first compartment is filled with a first liquid and the other compartments are filled with second and third liquids. The individual storage compartments are structurally merged to form elongated dispensing compartments each with a first end and a second end, wherein a one-way outlet positioned at the first end and a one-way outlet located at the second end permits passage of liquid from the storage compartments into the corresponding dispensing compartments. Upon fully inverting the container, the designated outlet of each dispensing compartment is opened, wherein precise amounts of liquids in the first, second, and third compartments are dispensed at constant volume ratio using gravity.

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.
