A system for dispensing a dental material comprises a cartridge from which the dental material is extrudable. The cartridge comprises a operating means and an interface for transmitting a cartridge output based on a user input. The system further has a dental dispensing device having a receptacle for receiving the cartridge and an interface for receiving the cartridge output. The system helps maximizing reliability and maximizing safety in operation for dispensing dental material.

A push member and a caulking gun having the same. The caulking gun includes the push member, a gun body and a push rod. The push member includes a blockable receiving portion which includes a receiving space and a lip protruding from a periphery of the receiving space, and a push portion arranged opposite to the blockable receiving portion in a first direction, for pushing a caulk cartridge. The lip defines a blocking mouth, and the blocking mouth and the receiving space are open toward a same lateral side of the push member to form an open end. When a push plate of the push rod is disposed within the receiving space, the lip and the push plate are blockable with each other in the first direction.

A dispensing nozzle for viscous material having a modified outlet is disclosed herein. The dispensing nozzle includes a first terminal portion, a second terminal portion, and a medial portion defined therebetween. The first terminal portion includes an attachment region configured to secure the dispensing nozzle to a dispensing gun. The second terminal portion includes a dispensing tip defining the outlet for the viscous material. The outlet has a quadrilateral profile in one embodiment. In another embodiment, the outlet has a square profile.

An application device for materials, in particular adhesives, including at least one cartridge receiving device for receiving a replaceable cartridge which contains a material and has a material outlet opening; a rotary device for metering or mixing the material, rotary device having a first engagement element; a drive device for driving the rotary device, the drive device having a rod which is mounted in a rotatable and axially movable manner and has a second engagement element at the end face; and a gearing unit for driving the rod in order to bring the first and the second engagement element into engagement with each other.

This invention belongs to the field of construction. More specifically, it covers a device that is suitable for finishing and sealing the joints and openings of different surfaces. The device includes a base, which is conical in its essence. The base has a collar to connect the device to the gun of sealant of finishing material; a holder is integrated with the base at an angle, a movable smoothing pad with a carriage has been fitted in the holder, and the carriage is installed in a casing inside holder. In the working position, there is a space between the smoothing pad and the tip of the nozzle of the tube, so that the material which is applied from the tube to the surface can visually be monitored and thus the desirable quantity dosed during the performance of the works.

A dispensing device is provided for storing and dispensing a flowable, viscous material. A cartridge is provided for storing the material and includes a tube, a movable cup member located within the tube, an end wall having a nozzle opening covered with a removable seal and a nozzle. The nozzle is removably held within the cup member during storage. The dispensing device is formed by inserting the cartridge within the actuator. The actuator comprises a barrel, a trigger, a handle, a plunger and a resilient detent. The movement of the trigger causes the plunger to push the moveable member forward. The detent holds the plunger in place maintaining the flow of material.

The present invention includes a dispensing system for dispensing a packaged product, e.g. a condiment, including a pouch (60) having the product therein cooperates with a dispensing gun (30) to dispense a dose of product. In various aspects the invention includes a packaging system that includes a container (40) and a flexible package (50) with a frangible seal (70), and a flexible pouch (60); a dispensing assembly (100) for dispensing a product from the package; a dispensing gun system; a method of making a package; and a method of dispensing a product. The packaging system includes a container such as a rigid sleeve, and a flexible pouch positioned within the container interior, and also includes a valve that enables the product to exit the pouch interior and be dispensed. An optional diffuser coordinates with the valve to dispense product from one or more product outlets.

A cartridge-based extrusion dispenser assembly includes a carriage configured to hold a fluid cartridge, and a flexible strip system coupled to a plunger and including a first flexible tape operably associated with a second flexible tape. Within the carriage, the first and second flexible tapes opposingly reinforce each other to establish a substantially rigid shaft member. An actuator assembly is configured to feed the first and second flexible tapes into the carriage to advance the plunger to engage the fluid cartridge and dispense fluid therefrom.

Storage and mixing systems for pasty two-component polymethyl methacrylate bone cements comprise a tubular cartridge having a cylindrical inner chamber, a cartridge head, which closes one end of the tubular cartridge at the front side, a partition that is disposed axially in the cylindrical inner chamber of the cartridge. The partition divides the cylindrical inner chamber of the cartridge bounded by the cartridge head into two cavities that are spatially separated from one another, wherein a first pasty cement component is present in the first cavity and a second pasty cement component is present in the separate second cavity. The systems further comprising two dispensing plungers axially displaceable in the two cavities of the cartridge, wherein the dispensing plungers close the two cavities on the back side of the cavities situated opposite the cartridge head, a bending device for deforming the partition, wherein the bending device is axially movable in the cartridge and is disposed, or is to be disposed, behind the dispensing plungers, as seen from the cartridge head, wherein the bending device has a deflection surface that is inclined with respect to the axis of the cartridge and pushes the partition laterally in the direction of the inside wall of the cartridge when the bending device is pushed into the cartridge.

Embodiments of the present invention includes methods for dispensing and an apparatus for dispensing. In particular embodiments, the barrel design of an apparatus for dispensing and provided in a method for dispensing is formed to encase and/or engage a material container. By encasing and/or engaging the material container within the barrel, expansion, such as tube expansion, is reduced and/or eliminated.
