A discharger for a fluid includes a housing having proximal and distal ends, a discharge device, the discharge device defining a passage between inlet and outlet openings, a carriage received in an end region of the housing and moveable relative to the housing between starting and discharge positions, in the starting position, the carriage protruding from the proximal end so as to be pushable into the housing and towards the discharge position, and the carriage defining a receiving space to be loaded with a separate container holding a fluid to be discharged, and an activation device configured to establish a flow connection for the fluid from within the receiving space to the inlet opening, the activation device being inoperative when the carriage is in the starting position and with the activation device establishing the flow connection when the carriage is in or being moved toward the discharge position.

Discharger

A storage and mixing device includes a mixing compartment, two pistons that each extend from the mixing compartment and end in a displacement section, each piston defining a passageway having a first opening communicating with the mixing compartment and a second opening communicating with an inlet at the displacement section, and a housing having two piston guides and a cartridge compartment connected to the piston guide, each piston guide slidably receiving one of the pistons, and each cartridge compartment receiving a removable cartridge that includes a cavity for containing separate substances and an opening sealed by a cartridge seal. The displacement section of each piston includes a piercing member for piercing the cartridge seal of the cartridge arranged in the corresponding cartridge compartment, such that the displacement section enters the cartridge cavity and displaces the contained substance into the mixing compartment via the inlet and the passageway.
