A method, computer program product, and apparatus for receiving, at a fluid dispensing apparatus, a control signal, wherein the control signal may be received from a base station, wherein the control signal, when received, may cause the fluid dispensing apparatus to perform operations. The operations may include generating a positive pressure within a fluid cartridge of the fluid dispensing apparatus by adjusting, via a motor of the fluid dispensing apparatus, a drive rod and piston of the fluid dispensing apparatus in a first direction relative to the fluid cartridge to dispense fluid in the fluid cartridge via a nozzle of the fluid dispensing apparatus. The operations may include generating a negative pressure within the fluid cartridge by adjusting, via the motor, the drive rod and piston in a second direction relative to the fluid cartridge to draw fluid into the fluid cartridge via the nozzle.

A retractable nozzle assembly is configured for dosing or dispensing highly viscous materials. The retractable nozzle assembly may be fitted to a delivery device containing a highly viscous chemical product to be dispensed. The retractable nozzle assembly may be actuated by hand, by mechanical action, or by any electromechanical device such as a dispenser. The retractable nozzle assembly includes a first path through a central bore in which the material moves at relatively slower flow rate and a secondary flow path in which the material moves at a relatively faster flow rate. The difference in flow rates at the outlet of the nozzle between the two flow paths helps to eliminate stringing and tailing of the high viscosity chemical product during dispensation.

A dispenser can prevent leakage of contents from a nozzle tip when stopping discharging the contents. A dispenser includes: a syringe body that has a filled space of contents, and has a discharge hole at a tip thereof; a plunger that is slid in the syringe body by application of a pushing force, to discharge the contents in the filled space from the discharge hole; and a piston that is formed of an elastic material and located at a tip part of the plunger, wherein a gap is formed between an inner peripheral surface of the syringe body and an outer peripheral surface of the piston, when the plunger is pushed, the piston deforms to narrow the gap, and a back leakage risk (=(gap area/final discharge hole area)) after the deformation of the piston is 0 or more and less than 1.

A discharge device capable of suppressing pressure fluctuation of a compressed gas supplied to a container in which a liquid material is stored. The device includes a storage container in which a liquid material is stored; a discharge port through which the liquid material is discharged; a pressure control valve that adjusts a pressure of a compressed gas supplied from an external compressed gas source to a desired level; a discharge valve that establishes or cuts off communication between the pressure control valve and the storage container; a control device that controls operation of the discharge valve; a first flow line connecting the pressure control valve and the discharge valve; and a second flow line connecting the discharge valve and the storage container. The device further includes a third flow line branched from the first flow line, and a leak mechanism connected to the third flow line.

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 nozzle tip adapter has a suction duct, a supply duct, and a base body with a device end and a substrate end. The base body has a nozzle tip recess at its substrate end for receiving a nozzle tip and a projecting portion extending into the nozzle tip recess, wherein the suction duct extends through the projecting portion and the supply duct opens into the nozzle tip recess, wherein the suction duct is being at least partially surrounded by the supply duct.

Further, a nozzle assembly and a nozzle are shown.

The invention relates to any field that requires suctioning and/or dispensing fluids of various viscosities (i.e. oil, grease or other like fluids) through a nozzle into a container or mechanical assembly (such as but not limited to robotic RV reducers used in industrial robotic arms, general purpose gearboxes used in various mechanical assemblies such as conveyors and internal combustion engines) for the purposes of transfer of fluids (such as but not limited to lubricating a system, injecting lubricant fluids into light and heavy industrial machines etc). This apparatus can be used in fluid transfer, dispensing and injection applications requiring monitoring of flow pressure and volume.

Apparatus and methods for dispensing small beads of a viscous, mixed fluid material formed by first and second viscous fluids. The apparatus includes first and second metering rods for moving in a reciprocating manner, such that the first metering rod extends into a first fluid passageway, and the second metering rod extends into a second fluid passageway. A mixing passage communicates with the first and second fluid passageways to receive the first and second viscous fluids from the first and second fluid passageways. A dispensing passageway is in fluid communication with the mixing passage, and dispenses a small bead of viscous, mixed fluid material formed by the mixed first and second viscous fluids. A control retracts the first and second metering rods to prevent drooling of the viscous, mixed fluid material from the dispensing passageway after a dispensing cycle.

A control assembly for a material dispenser includes a plunger movably located within a bore of the assembly, the plunger having first and second ends, the first end having an abutment for moveably retaining the plunger within the bore and the second end for engaging a switch during operation of the material dispenser to cease operation. A biasing member located within the bore, the biasing member engaging the first end of the plunger, the biasing member allowing for the manual movement of the plunger without harm to the switch of the material dispenser during use.
