The present disclosure includes a method for producing a printed circuit board having at least one coating includes mixing a first component with a second component of a two component coating system to form a coating mixture by means of a dynamic mixer or by means of a static-dynamic mixer. The method also includes supplying the coating mixture to an output unit, and coating the printed circuit board by outputting the coating mixture using the output unit onto the printed circuit board. The output unit is moved automatically in at least one, two, or three dimensions relative to the printed circuit board. The mixer is connected with the output unit in such a manner that it is moved together with the output unit relative to the printed circuit board. The present disclosure also includes a coating head for performing the method.

An application device for paste-like and/or flowable material, including a housing with a feed region for material and at least one discharge region for material. At least one mixing region is formed between the feed region for material and the discharge region for material and the at least one mixing region is designed as at least one mixing device.

A dispenser assembly includes a rod, a plunger and a stopper. The rod has a plunger receiving end with a clip receiving recess. The plunger has a rod receiving structure with a rod engaging clip biased to fit to the clip receiving recess of the rod for movement therewith. The stopper has a plunger receiving space that defines an aperture extending through the plunger receiving space with the rod extending through the aperture. The plunger receiving space is dimensioned such that with the rod receiving structure of the plunger located within the plunger receiving space, movement of the rod engaging clip is restricted by contact with surfaces of the plunger receiving space preventing release of the rod from the plunger.

The mixing device of cell printing composition according to the present disclosure comprises a first syringe comprising a first container for containing first liquid, a first moving element discharging the first liquid contained in the first container; a second syringe comprising a second container for containing second liquid, a second moving element discharging the second liquid contained in the second container; a mixing container which comprises a rotating mixing unit and receives the discharged first liquid and the discharged second liquids; a power transmission unit for driving the first moving element, the second moving element and the mixing unit; a first threaded guide where the first moving element is movably connected; a second threaded guide where the second moving element is movably connected; and a rod for rotating the mixing unit.

A dynamic mixer attachment is disclosed, which is adapted for use with conventional multi-component cartridges. The mixer has dispensing and drive axes that are offset relative to each other to enable use of the mixer with conventional multi-component cartridges. Also disclosed is a dispenser adapted for use with the mixer attachment and conventional multi-component cartridges.

A device for storing first and second ingredient materials, mixing the ingredient materials to form an adhesive material and dispensing the adhesive material. The device comprises: a nozzle for dispensing the third material; a first container adapted to store a first ingredient material and mix the first ingredient material with a second ingredient material; a second container disposed within the first container, and moveable between a storage position in which a second ingredient material is stored in the second container and a mixing position in which the second ingredient material is moved to the first container; a mixer that longitudinally extends into the first and second containers; a handle alternatively coupled to the mixer to mix the first and second ingredient materials or to the second container to move the second container to a dispensing position to dispense the third material. During use, the first container is rotated causing the second container to move relative to the first container and the second material to flow into the first container for mixing. After mixing, the handle is uncoupled from the mixer and coupled to the second container to dispense the third material from the nozzle. Embodiments are also described herein for a method of making the device and a method of using the device.

A check valve system includes a housing, a blocking element, and a biasing member. The housing has a passageway therethrough, the passageway including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion having a diameter that is less than a diameter of the second portion so as to form a stepped portion. The blocking element is disposed within the second portion of the passageway. The biasing member is disposed within the second portion of the passageway and configured to maintain the blocking element in contact with the stepped portion when under compression. The housing, the blocking element and the biasing member being obtainable by substantially simultaneously 3D printing, so as to be formed from one or more 3D printable materials.

A dispensing system includes a container containing a flowable base formulation to be dispensed, an additive mixing device, and an actuable pump engine which draws the flowable base formulation from the container and pumps it through the mixing device. The additive mixing device includes a body with an internal cavity, an additive ingredient within the cavity, and a flow path/mixing chamber between an input and an output. With each pump of the device the additive ingredient is introduced into, and mixed with, a flow of the base formulation traveling through the mixing device. Multiple additive mixing devices may be interchangeable for different formulations, and the mixing devices may be refillable.

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.
