Paste based lubricating system
A system includes a processing station and a lubricant supply system in fluid communication with the processing station. The processing station is operable to process at least one of a tire and a wheel prior to joining the tire and the wheel to form a tire-wheel assembly. The processing station includes at least one of a tire lubricating sub-station or a wheel lubricating sub-station. The lubricant supply system includes a storage container configured to store a lubricant and a whipping device received by the lubricant container and operable to whip or blend the lubricant from a semi-solid state to a whipped state. The lubricant supply system also includes a pump operable to pump the lubricant in the whipped state out of the storage container.
Device for mixing and storing polymethyl methacrylate bone cement with pressure pump and ampoule breaker
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.
Depositing machine having a plug-in connection
A depositing machine (1) comprising a removable component, a method for inserting the removable component (10) in a machine frame (2) of a depositing machine, a method for removing the removable component (10) from a machine frame (2) of a depositing machine (1), and a kit for retrofitting a depositing machine (1) with the removable component (10). The component (10) is fastened to the machine frame (2) by a substantially horizontally arranged plug-in connection (11), in particular, a bolt connection.
Vacuum mixing system and method for the mixing of polymethylmethacrylate bone cement
A vacuum mixing system for the mixing of polymethylmethacrylate bone cement, comprising at least one cartridge (4) having an evacuable internal space for mixing of the bone cement, a pump (18) for generating a negative pressure, and a connecting conduit (12) connecting the internal space of the at least one cartridge (4) to the pump (18) for generating a negative pressure, an integrated energy reservoir (28) for driving the pump (18) that is or can be connected to the pump (18) and has energy for at least one pumping process of the pump (18) stored in it, whereby a negative pressure can be generated by means of the pump (18) during the pumping process, which negative pressure can be used to evacuate gas from the internal space of the at least one cartridge (4) through the connecting conduit (12).
Delivery Device and Methods of Use
A mixing and delivery device for flowable, homogenous material compositions and methods of use are provided. A kit for use by a medical professional is also provided.
TWO-PART STORAGE AND MIXING DEVICE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A BONE CEMENT, AND PERTINENT METHOD
A storage and mixing device for the production of a bone cement dough from a monomer liquid and a cement powder as starting components of the bone cement. The storage and mixing device includes: (1) a receptacle having a monomer liquid container which contains the monomer liquid, (2) a cartridge containing the cement powder, (3) a feed plunger, which is accessible from a rear side of the receptacle, arranged in the receptacle, and movable in a longitudinal direction of the receptacle, and (4) a dispensing plunger which is arranged in the cartridge and shiftable in a longitudinal direction inside of the cartridge. The front side of the receptacle is connected or connectable to the rear side of the cartridge with a first securing element on the rear side of the receptacle and a second securing element on the rear side of the cartridge.
The invention also relates to a method for the production of a bone cement dough, in particular of a pasty polymethylmethacrylate bone cement dough, whereby the bone cement dough is produced from a cement powder and a monomer liquid through the use of a storage and mixing device.
Resin dispensing apparatus
A resin dispensing apparatus includes a supply unit including a syringe having an internal space configured to hold a phosphor-containing resin. An agitator is disposed in the internal space. The supply unit is configured to rotate at least one of the syringe and the agitator to prevent settling of phosphor contained in the phosphor-containing resin. A discharge unit includes a cylinder having a discharge nozzle through which the phosphor-containing resin, received through a connecting pipe connected to the syringe, is discharged. A piston provides pressure to discharge the phosphor-containing resin through the discharge nozzle inside the cylinder.
