A cartridge for a multi-component material, includes a hollow cylindrical inner body which defines an inner space for receiving a first component, a hollow cylindrical outer body which receives the inner body such that an intermediate space for receiving a second component is formed between an outer wall of the inner body and an inner wall of the outer body, an outlet emanating from the inner body and in a first passage which connects an outlet opening of the outlet to the interior of the inner body is formed, and a second passage connecting the outlet opening of the outlet to the intermediate space present between the outer body and the inner body. An end portion of the inner space that faces the outlet lies at least substantially in the same plane as an end portion of the intermediate space that faces the outlet.

Cartridge for multi-component materials

A piston for a support sleeve of a dispensing assembly, the piston has a substantially cylindrical outer shape and includes a piston body as well as first and second film bag retainers arranged at opposite sides of the piston body.

A check valve system includes a housing, a blocking element, and a biasing member. The housing has a passageway therethrough, the passageway including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion having a diameter that is less than a diameter of the second portion so as to form a stepped portion. The blocking element is disposed within the second portion of the passageway. The biasing member is disposed within the second portion of the passageway and configured to maintain the blocking element in contact with the stepped portion when under compression. The housing, the blocking element and the biasing member being obtainable by substantially simultaneously 3D printing, so as to be formed from one or more 3D printable materials.

Check valve system

A piston for a collapsible cartridge for dispensing a material, the piston includes a rigid portion and a flexible portion. The rigid portion has a first diameter, a first end and a second end. The first end is configured to be disposed in a material dispensing direction. The flexible portion has a second diameter less than the first diameter, a first end disposed in the material dispensing direction and a second end disposed in an opposite direction. The flexible portion is disposed on the first end of the rigid portion such that the second end of the flexible portion is disposed to face the first end of the rigid portion. The flexible portion is configured to radially expand and longitudinally compress upon a force applied to the first end of the flexible portion to compress the collapsible cartridge between the flexible portion and an interior surface of a support cartridge.

A coaxial cartridge for multi-component materials includes a head part having an outlet, an inner tube forming a first storage compartment configured to store a first component inner tube forms part of the outlet, and an outer tube. The inner tube is arranged within the outer tube at a longitudinal axis that is common to both the inner tube and the outer tube. A space formed between the outer tube and the inner tube forms a second storage compartment configured to store a second component. The outer tube forms a further part of the outlet.

A spray nozzle for spraying material includes an outlet, a mixing section, an inlet for the material, and a buffer space for pressurized gas. The mixing section is in fluid communication with the outlet. The inlet is in fluid communication with the mixing section. The buffer space is in fluid communication with the mixing section via two or more separate gas supply channels. The inlet comprises a separating wall configured to divide a flow of material to be sprayed into two separate flow passages prior to entry into the mixing section.

Spray nozzle

A connecting device for connecting two or more components to one another, includes an inlet section and an outlet section. The inlet section and the outlet section respectively include one or more connectors for each of the two or more components, with one or more passages extending between the inlet section and the outlet section, with the connecting device being of single piece design and being plastic.

Connecting device

A dispensing control system includes a dispensing device and a remote device. The dispensing device includes a dispenser configured to dispense material from a cartridge disposed in the dispensing device, a first receiver configured to receive information related to the cartridge, a transmitter configured to transmit the information related to the cartridge, and an electronic controller configured to cause the transmitter of the dispensing device to transmit the information related to the cartridge. The remote device includes an electronic controller, a receiver and a transmitter, the receiver of the remote device is configured to receive the information related to the cartridge, the controller of the remote device is configured to monitor the information related to the cartridge and to cause the transmitter of the remote device to transmit the information related to the cartridge to a remote server.

Dispensing control system, method of controlling a dispensing device and computer program

A dispenser assembly includes a rod, a plunger and a stopper. The rod has a plunger receiving end with a clip receiving recess. The plunger has a rod receiving structure with a rod engaging clip biased to fit to the clip receiving recess of the rod for movement therewith. The stopper has a plunger receiving space that defines an aperture extending through the plunger receiving space with the rod extending through the aperture. The plunger receiving space is dimensioned such that with the rod receiving structure of the plunger located within the plunger receiving space, movement of the rod engaging clip is restricted by contact with surfaces of the plunger receiving space preventing release of the rod from the plunger.

Dispensing control system

A cartridge for a one or two-component mixing and dispensing system includes at least one flexible film bag as a cartridge wall, a rigid front part that is in particular integrally formed with the at least one flexible film bag and that is arranged at a front end section of the at least one film bag, the rigid front part including at least one outlet opening. The cartridge for a two-component mixing and dispensing system has a first flexible film bag as a cartridge wall and a second flexible film bag as a cartridge wall, and a structure surrounding the cartridge.

Cartridge for a mixing and dispensing system

A method is disclosed for producing an apparatus for dispensing a medium. The apparatus includes a cartridge in which a piston is movably receivable. The cartridge includes a cartridge body and a cartridge cover together forming a cartridge housing. The method includes providing a first part in a mold of a molding device, the first part being chosen from at least one of the following parts: cartridge body; piston; cartridge cover. Subsequently, a second part different from the first part is molded in the mold of the molding device, the first part constituting a part of the mold for the second part.
