Definitions
- the invention relates to a single-use multi-component cartridge which is suitable for the simultaneous discharge of two components which can be mixed prior to use.
- Such a multi-component cartridge is already known from DE 20 2008 007 801 111.
- a disadvantage of this structure is that a large number of individual parts must be used.
- the prior art multicomponent cartridge is designed for single use as well as multiple use.
- the mixing may be uneven, and such a multi-component cartridge may be difficult to seal after it has been used for the first time. Therefore once used multi-component cartridges have limited shelf life.
- the filling material comes through the lack of sealing in contact with air and can thereby change their properties, so for example harden.
- a multi-component cartridge in coaxial design which is also shown in DE 20 2008 007 801 U1, may have fewer problems with the seal, but the problem of non-uniform mixing remains.
- the uneven mixing has the consequence that when reusing the multicomponent cartridge each If the multi-component cartridge is used, the result of the mixing is different, that is, a constant quality of the filling compound can not be achieved.
- the object of the invention is therefore to develop a multi-component cartridge, which has a simpler construction and is intended exclusively for single use.
- Another object of the invention is to prevent inadvertent movement of the piston due to accidental actuation of the plunger.
- Another object of the invention is to visually indicate to the user whether a filled multicomponent cartridge is intact.
- the solution comprises a multi-component cartridge, which comprises a first storage compartment for a first component, a second storage compartment for a second component.
- the first component is in the storage state separate from the second component.
- the first storage chamber is arranged coaxially around the second storage chamber and forms an annular space, wherein in the first storage chamber, a first piston is movably received and in the second storage chamber, a second piston is movably received.
- the first and second pistons are movable by means of a plunger in order to discharge the two components at the same time.
- the plunger is held in a housing element.
- a guide member is provided to guide the first piston in the first storage chamber and to guide the second piston in the second storage chamber.
- the housing element comprises an engagement element, which can be brought into engagement with the guide element.
- the engagement element may in particular be rotatable relative to the guide element.
- the guide element comprises a spring element.
- the guide element is arranged in a housing, wherein the guide element is movable relative to the housing by means of a movement element.
- this includes
- the spring element may comprise a shoulder on the circumference of the guide element.
- the shoulder may in particular have an outer diameter which is at least slightly larger than the inner diameter of the engagement element.
- the spring element may have a projection which engages in a recess of the housing element, so that the housing element is rotatably connected in a rotational direction with the guide element.
- a groove is formed along an inner wall of the housing member.
- the recess may extend at least as far as the groove when the housing element is connected to the guide element.
- the spring element may comprise an opening. Through this opening, an exemption of the spring element, so that it can develop its elastic properties. That is, the outer diameter of the spring member can be reduced by compressing the spring member to be received in the engagement member.
- the opening is at least partially covered by the recess when the guide element is assembled with the housing element.
- a latching connection between the guide element and the housing is provided.
- a channel is open, which leads from an outlet opening of the first pantry to a second outlet opening of the second pantry, so that the first component and the second component are jointly discharged.
- the operating concept of the multi-component cartridge according to the invention thus differs fundamentally from the prior art.
- the user who requires a certain amount of filling material, picks up a multi-component cartridge as previously described. First, he assures himself that the multi-component cartridge is intact. For this purpose, it moves the moving element in the manner indicated on the housing of the cartridge. If this movement of the movement element can not be carried out, the user knows that the multi-component cartridge has already been opened.
- the user can actuate the movement element in the intended manner, he opens hereby the outlet openings, so that the filling material can pass through the outlet openings and can be conveyed to the mixer.
- the user can align the multi-component cartridge according to his wishes to bring the filling material to the desired location.
- he can also install the multi-component cartridge in a commercial dispensing device.
- the dispensing device comprises a pressure medium, which exerts a pressure on the plunger of the multi-component cartridge, which sets the pistons in their storage chambers in motion, whereby the filling material is ejected from the corresponding storage chambers.
- the end of the mixer may contain suitable elements for positioning the jet of the mixture of components of the filling material.
- the guide element comprises the mixer, in particular a static mixer.
- the position of the guide element relative to the mixer is predetermined by this measure.
- the guide element also contains the outlet openings, so that the flow path for the components for every single multi-component cartridge is the same.
- a better reproducibility with respect to the mixture obtained can be achieved with the inventive concept, although a separate multi-component cartridge is required for each batch.
- this solution results in a smaller number
- the movement element comprises an external thread which is attached to the guide element and into which an internal thread attached to the housing can engage.
- This embodiment of the moving element as a rotary element is preferred because it is easy to handle and because a defined angle of rotation of a defined gap width between the second end portion of the guide element and the housing is assigned.
- the piston and the plunger may be integrally formed.
- This one-piece design is advantageous because in addition to the reduction of the sum of the components and the associated simplification of the multi-component cartridge and a mispositioning of the piston and thus an inclination of the piston are completely excluded.
- the piston part of the plunger can therefore also have a lower overall height. The piston part is thus guided by the connecting element of a housing element, so that tilting of the piston part according to this embodiment can be avoided.
- the plunger may preferably be integrally connected to the housing element.
- the housing element with the plunger is after filling the pantry with the appropriate components and the insertion the first and second piston mounted on the piston and connected to the guide element.
- there is an engagement element on the housing element which is brought into engagement with a spring element on the guide element.
- the housing element is thus rotatably connected to the guide element.
- the plunger connected to the housing member holds the pistons in their home position so that the filling compound is trapped in the storage chambers. In this state, the filled multi-component cartridge can be stored, the state is hereinafter referred to as storage condition. If plunger, piston and housing element form a unit, this unit is connected to the guide element after filling.
- the housing element has a predetermined breaking point, via which the plunger is connected to the housing element in the storage state.
- the predetermined breaking point can act as a seal to keep the interior of the housing member free of impurities.
- the predetermined breaking point comprises ribs or webs which run in the longitudinal direction with respect to the ram axis. It also allows the user to assess whether the multi-component cartridge is intact. If the predetermined breaking point intact, an increased resistance at the beginning of the discharge must be overcome during discharge, which is due to the fact that the breakthrough of the predetermined breaking point, an increased effort is required. The breakthrough of the predetermined breaking point is visible at the incipient displacement of the plunger relative to the housing element as well as mostly audible.
- the plunger is then movable relative to the housing element, when the plunger is acted upon by a force when a discharge of the first and second components is to take place, wherein the connection between the housing element and plunger is interrupted.
- the guide element can be connected via the engagement element with a housing element.
- the use of the engagement element allows a simple and easy assembly of the multi-component cartridge after filling the pantries.
- the engagement element may comprise a spring element, wherein the spring element may be formed as a shoulder on the circumference of the guide element. The spring element engages in a recess of the housing element, so that the housing element is rotatably connected to the guide element.
- the first piston includes an annular piston having an annular seal on its outer piston skirt.
- the first storage chamber is arranged coaxially to the second storage chamber, since this arrangement is space-saving and a small volume of the multi-component cartridge is achieved. Since the first storage chamber is annular, the first piston is designed as an annular piston. Of course, the first pantry could also have a polygonal cross-section. The first piston may still be annular, but its shape is no longer circular.
- the second piston preferably has a venting element in the region of the predetermined breaking point, since upon insertion of the piston after filling of the storage chambers with the corresponding components, air can remain between the filling compound and the piston, which can adversely affect the discharge process.
- the guide element may comprise a venting element.
- the plunger and the piston may be at least partially hollow. As a result, the material consumption for the plunger and the piston is reduced. Furthermore, plungers and pistons can be more easily manufactured in the Sphtzgiess vide when material accumulations are avoided and thin-walled components can be used.
- Each of the components which form the multicomponent cartridge may consist of at least partially foamed plastic.
- the multi-component cartridge can be used in a standard dispensing device, which is widely used in the market.
- the end user does not need to purchase an additional dispenser, but can use the multi-component cartridge with a standard dispenser.
- the connection to the standard dispensing device forms the plunger.
- This ram may have a dimension suitable for the standard dispenser.
- the multi-component cartridge can only be used for a single application. It is not suitable for multiple use. Therefore, the static mixer is not interchangeable.
- the multi-component cartridge can be designed in a slimmer and narrower design. Therefore, the multi-component cartridge can be stored and transported easier.
- the multi-component cartridges or their individual parts can be transported more easily and inexpensively in the empty state.
- the multi-component cartridge can have protection against unintentional opening.
- the plunger can be firmly connected to the housing surrounding it. Only when discharging the connection between the plunger and the housing is interrupted by the pressure applied to the plunger. Thus, it is visible at any time whether the multi-component cartridge is still new or has already been in use, so is no longer intact.
- when cutting the connection between the housing and plunger a noise, so that it is acoustically recognizable whether the multi-component cartridge before use was intact, so as new. Unauthorized refilling or reuse can be easily avoided.
- the inventive concept has fewer parts than the prior art. For example, because the mixer is firmly connected to the housing of the cartridge, the flow of the mixer during the entire discharge cycle is the same. It follows not only that the quality of mixing is a and the same multiple component for the entire discharge cycle is substantially the same, but it also comes to lower deviations in the mixing quality in different multi-component cartridges same type.
