The flow meter 3 is placed in front of the gas storage portion 4 and behind the regulator 2 with respect to a flow of the gas.

An apparatus for dye dispensing is disclosed herein. The apparatus includes a controller and a tray. The tray communicates with the controller and is configured with at least one opening. At least one canister is configured with an identifier and a dye. The dye is associated with the identifier. A reader communicates with the controller. A dispenser comprises an actuator communicating with the controller and a lever arm. The lever arm is coupled to the actuator and configured with a projection. The reader, based on the identifier, identifies a selected dye in a selected canister associated with a dye formulation. When the selected canister is aligned with a dispensing area, the dispenser applies a downward force on the selected canister and dispenses the selected dye.

Systems and methods for multi-chambered syringes are described. In some embodiments, a multi-chamber syringe includes a housing with an internal cavity and first and second plungers disposed at least partially within the internal cavity. The first and second plungers are slidably displaceable relative to the housing, and are associated with first and second chambers respectively. A barrier is disposed at least partially between the first and second plungers to form the first and second chambers. The barrier is slidably displaceable relative to the plungers and barrel to selectively place the first and second chambers including first and second materials respectively in fluid communication. When the barrier is displaced, the first and second materials mix in a combined volume of the first and second chambers. Displacing the first plunger, the second plunger, and the barrier may dispense the mixed materials from the combined volume.

A device and method for producing a bone cement paste from a monomer liquid and a cement powder, wherein the device comprises a cartridge with a cylindrical interior chamber for mixing the parent components, whereby the interior chamber of the cartridge is closed on the front side up to a delivery opening for expelling the bone cement paste from the interior chamber, a delivery plunger which is arranged in the interior chamber of the cartridge and which is supported in a linearly movable manner in the direction of the delivery opening, the cement powder, which is arranged in the interior chamber of the cartridge between the delivery opening and the delivery plunger, a monomer receptacle with an interior chamber in which a monomer liquid container containing the monomer liquid is contained, whereby in the monomer receptacle, a conveying plunger is arranged movable in the longitudinal direction of the monomer receptacle, a compressed gas connection, whereby the conveying plunger is arranged between the monomer liquid container and the compressed gas connection or the compressed gas line in the monomer receptacle.

A medical device for making foam includes a syringe having a plunger for dispensing a liquid from a liquid dispensing port, and a mixing chamber including a mixing chamber inlet, a mixing chamber outlet, a liquid flow channel extending between the mixing chamber inlet and the mixing chamber outlet, and a gas inlet channel that intersects with the liquid flow channel. The system has a gas cartridge containing the gas, a first gas conduit connected with the syringe, and a second gas conduit connected with the gas inlet channel. An actuator is coupled with the gas cartridge for releasing the gas into the first and second gas conduits. The released gas in the first gas conduit forces the plunger toward the liquid dispensing port for dispensing the liquid from the liquid dispensing port and into the liquid flow channel while the released gas in the second gas conduit flows into the gas inlet channel of the mixing chamber for mixing with the liquid in the liquid flow channel.

A device for mixing liquid material which a user shakes by hand up and down or left and right is provided. The device includes: a container that includes a space on an inner side extending in the longitudinal direction, and a grip shape on an outer side of the container; an opening-closing member; and a coil spring which has a constant winding diameter and moves freely inside the container in the longitudinal direction. Liquid material and the coil spring are contained in the container, the liquid material being obtained by mixing a material to be dispersed and liquid. A silencer is provided at the end of the coil spring. The device includes: a coil spring abutting part that abuts against and supports 80% of a planar spread formed by one winding of an end of the coil spring relative to the one winding; a first vertical wall and a second vertical wall which are two vertical walls which are perpendicular to the coil spring abutting part and also perpendicular to the coil constituting the coil spring, and are provided at limiting positions where the coil spring of the coil spring abutting part abuts; and a cylindrical wall that extends vertically opposite to the coil spring of the coil spring abutting part, and has an inner diameter set to be the outer diameter of the coil spring, wherein the first vertical wall and the second vertical wall each have two holes through which a coil constituting the coil spring can pass arranged side by side in a direction in which the coil spring extends.

Device for the mixing of polymethylmethacrylate bone cement and for storing a monomer liquid and a cement powder as starting components of the bone cement, comprising a cartridge having an internal space closed on one side by a mobile dispensing plunger; a monomer container for a monomer liquid and/or a connector for attachment of a monomer container which can be opened in the device so that the monomer liquid flows from the monomer container into the device; and a connecting conduit through which the monomer liquid can be guided into the internal space of the cartridge; having a pumping plunger that can be shifted axially in the hollow cylinder arranged in the hollow cylinder, which can be used to push monomer liquid from the hollow cylinder through the connecting conduit into the internal space of the cartridge by actuating the pumping plunger.

A meshing-type rubber internal mixer and a working method thereof are provided. The meshing rubber internal mixer includes a frame mechanism, a mixing mechanism, and an unloading mechanism. The mixing mechanism is on the upper side of the unloading mechanism. The mixing mechanism and the unloading mechanism are in the frame mechanism. An internal mixing chamber is of a closed structure through first automatic telescopic plates and second automatic telescopic plates. The gap between a first meshing-type rotor and a second meshing-type rotor is small, a material is compressed to enter the space between the first meshing-type rotor and the second meshing-type rotor to be extruded with an internal mixing chamber wall. The material is flaky in the internal mixing chamber, so that the material produces great strain deformation, thereby achieving excellent dispersing and mixing effects.
