The present invention is in the field of an improved method of applying a two-component adhesive, wherein the adhesive is provided packaged in a foil, typically one and the same foil, a package comprising said adhesive and an adapted sealing gun, said adapted sealing gun, and specific uses of said package and sealing gun.

Provided are an apparatus (1) for dispensing viscous fluid and a method for dispensing viscous fluid with the same. The apparatus (1) comprises: a support structure (2) adapted to receive a plurality of cartridges (41, 42); and a plurality of push rods (31, 32) and a transmission means (7) that are mounted to the support structure (2), each push rod being configured to be translatable in a longitudinal direction thereof. The transmission means (7) is configured to receive a driving force from a power source and transmit the driving force to the plurality of push rods (31, 32) at different transmission ratios so as to translate the plurality of push rods at different speeds.

A static spray mixer for mixing and spraying two flowable components includes a tubular mixer housing extending in the direction of a longitudinal axis up to a distal end with an outlet opening, having one mixing element arranged in the mixer housing for mixing the components and having an atomization sleeve with an inner surface surrounding the mixer housing in an end region. The atomization sleeve has an inlet channel for a pressurized atomization medium. A plurality of grooves is in the outer surface of the mixer housing or in the inner surface of the atomization sleeve and extend toward the distal end and form separate flow channels between the atomization sleeve and the mixer housing through which the atomization medium flows from the inlet channel of the atomization sleeve to the distal end of the mixer housing. The inlet channel is arranged asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis.

A cartridge for a dispensing device contains at least one elongate film pouch, which is inherently non-rigid and which has a chamber for receiving a composition. The cartridge also contains a head part for interacting with the film pouch. The film pouch has an opening on a side facing the head part, which is closed by a cover. The cover has a predetermined breaking region. A method can be used for producing such a cartridge.

Various embodiments of a fluid nozzle are disclosed. The nozzle includes a tube having a fluid passageway that extends between an aperture disposed in a first end of the tube and an inlet disposed in a second end of the tube, and a notch disposed in a sidewall of the tube. The notch defines a shield portion of the sidewall of the tube. The fluid nozzle further includes a cap rotatably connected to the tube and disposed over the aperture and the notch of the tube. When the nozzle is in a first orientation the cap is rotated relative to the tube such that an outlet of the cap includes a maximum open area. When the nozzle is in a second orientation the shield portion of the tube occludes a portion of the outlet of the cap such that the outlet includes a minimum open area.

An apparatus for applying viscous material to workpieces has at least two material outlets. A needle valve is assigned to each material outlet, the valve needle of which being able to close the respective material outlet on a valve seat. Each valve needle is assigned a cylinder, in the piston chamber of which a piston is movable by pressure applied by a fluid, and which cylinder has a piston rod for impingement on the respective valve needle, the piston rod being connected to the piston, being guided out of the piston chamber on an end face facing the valve seats and extending longitudinally. The cylinders are arranged one behind the other longitudinally and the piston rod of at least one of the cylinders is guided in a sealed manner through the piston chamber of at least one further cylinder arranged closer on the valve seats.

An apparatus (10) for use in dispensing adhesive (18) is provided that has a mix applicator (12) that has a receiving portion (16) and a mix applicator bore (14) through which adhesive can flow. A mix head (20) is present that has a mix head bore (26) that extends through the mix head. The mix applicator is receivable within the mix head such that the receiving portion is located within the mix head. Adhesive can be dispensed in a ribbon shape from the mix head bore at a distal tip of the mix head. A lock member is configured for extending through at least a portion of the mix head, and engages the mix applicator when the receiving portion is located within the mix head in order to retain the mix head onto the mix applicator.

An application system is presented having a cartridge, at least one first accessory part, for example a stopper, and at least one second accessory part, for example a static or dynamic mixer. The cartridge has at least one container with an outlet opening and at least one outlet connected to the container via the outlet opening on the end face of the cartridge, wherein the at least one outlet can be connected to the at least one first accessory part and the at least one second accessory part such that a seal is produced between the outlet and the respective accessory part. At least one separate seal plane is provided for each accessory part.

A cartridge for a dispensing device has at least one inherently non-rigid, elongate film pouch, which has a chamber for receiving a composition. The cartridge also has a head part for interacting with the film pouch. The head part has an inherently rigid insert, which is connected to the film pouch on a side facing the head part. A connecting device is provided, which can connect the insert to the head part in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner. The insert has at least one first connecting element of the connecting device and the head part has at least one second connecting element of the connecting device.

An apparatus and method for application of a line of resin along a crease line of a garment for increasing the life of the crease line. The apparatus in one embodiment allows a simultaneous application of lines of resin along respective crease lines of one or more garments to provide an increase in productivity. The apparatus and method allows the operation of a source of a pressurised fluid source used in dispensing of the resin from one or more cartridges held on mounting apparatus to be achieved by an operator's hand which, at the same time, is used to hold gripping portion on the mounting apparatus to move the cartridges and mounting apparatus with respect to the crease line to apply the resin.
