A viscous material container that makes it unlikely that air remains in a housing when a piston is inserted from an insertion port of the housing. A first section of the housing is formed with two groove portions communicating with a first passage to discharge air in the first passage when a piston is inserted from an insertion port. The two groove portions communicate with the insertion port, and extend along a first imaginary center line.

Viscous material container having annularly contacting piston

Provided herein is a viscous material container that is not likely to form continuous streaks or asperities on the surface of a viscous material discharged from the viscous material container even if the viscous material is highly viscous. A third section of a housing includes a wall having a wall portion that is positioned radially outwardly of a continuous angular portion with respect to a second imaginary center line, and extends along the continuous angular portion. The wall portion is configured to expand radially outward when a dental viscous material pushed out from a discharge port.

Viscous material container with expandable bend

Provided is a nozzle mounting structure of a component container by which a nozzle configured to rotate between a first position and a second position may be mounted to a housing without the need for a high processing precision and a high assembly precision. A pair of shaft portions support a body with the nozzle unitarily formed therewith. The nozzle rotates between the first position and the second position. A curved convex surface provided on the body is pressed against a curved concave surface provided on a first bottom wall portion of a housing by a pressing force imparted from a support portion.

Nozzle mounting structure of component container

Provided is a two-component mixing container in which a piston member may be capable of a rotation motion operation and a linear motion operation without the need for a complex guide groove. Two or more spring structure portions are provided at the piston member. The two or more spring structure portions impart a pressing force on an inner wall surface of the third cylindrical portion. Two or more fitting grooves are formed in the third cylindrical portion. In this fitting state, the piston member and a second-component containing member rotate together without contact portions getting out of the fitting grooves. When a force of a predetermined level or higher toward a third bottom wall portion is applied to an operating rod portion with a second-component containing chamber and a mixing chamber being communicable with each other, the contact portions get out of the fitting grooves.

Two-component mixing container including piston using spring engagement

Provided is a two-component mixing container in which a communication passage may be formed between a partition wall member and a second-component containing member without the need for a high processing precision and a high assembly precision. A columnar portion provided at the central portion of a second bottom wall portion of a partition wall member and a circular through hole provided in the central portion of a third bottom wall portion of a second-component containing member are fitted. A first communication passage and a second communication passage are communicated with each other, using a fitting surface formed between the columnar portion and the circular through hole.
