Description

EntlüftungsvorrichtungVentilation device

Die Neuerung betrifft eine Entlüftungsvorrichtung zum Entfernen der Restluft beim Einsetzen eines Kolbens in eine gefüllte Kartusche mit einer von der Kolbenoberfläche ins Freie verlaufenden Entlüftungsbohrung.The innovation concerns a venting device for removing residual air when inserting a piston into a filled cartridge with a vent hole running from the piston surface to the outside.

Werden Kolben in gefüllte Kartuschen eingesetzt, dann ist es erforderlich, die Restluft zwischen dem Füllmaterial und dem Kolben zu entfernen. Hierbei ist es bekannt, beim Einsetzen des Kolbens gleichzeitig einen Draht zwischen dem Kolben und der Wand der Kartusche einzuführen, so daß die Restluft beim Einsetzen des Kolbens im Bereich des Drahtes herausgedrückt wird. Diese Restluftbeseitigung ist sehr zeitaufwendig und beinhaltet zudem die Gefahr, daß die Dichtlippen am Kolben beschädigt werden können.If pistons are inserted into filled cartridges, it is necessary to remove the residual air between the filling material and the piston. It is known to do this by inserting a wire between the piston and the wall of the cartridge at the same time as inserting the piston, so that the residual air is pressed out in the area of the wire when the piston is inserted. This removal of residual air is very time-consuming and also carries the risk that the sealing lips on the piston could be damaged.

Es ist weiterhin bekannt, am Kolben Entlüftungsbohrungen vorzusehen, über welche beim Einsetzen des Kolbens die Restluft entweichen kann. Diese Entlüftungsbohrungen werden anschließend durch Verschlußteile verschlossen. Diese Art der Restluftbeseitigung ist jedoch sehr zeitaufwendig.It is also known to provide vent holes on the piston through which the residual air can escape when the piston is inserted. These vent holes are then closed with closure parts. However, this type of residual air removal is very time-consuming.

Desweiteren ist es bekannt, am Kolben Entlüftungsventile vorzusehen, die beim Einsetzen des Kolbens in die Kartusche mittels speziell geformter Kolben-Eindrückstössel geöffnet werden. Dies bedingt speziell angepaßte Eindrückstössel und erfodert relativ enge Fertigungstoleranzen bei den Entlüftungsventilen. Diese Entlüftungsventile haben sich zudem als störanfällig erwiesen.It is also known to provide vent valves on the piston, which are opened by means of specially shaped piston push-in tappets when the piston is inserted into the cartridge. This requires specially adapted push-in tappets and requires relatively tight manufacturing tolerances for the vent valves. These vent valves have also proven to be susceptible to failure.

Es besteht die Aufgabe, die Entlüftungsvorrichtung so auszubilden, daß ein Entlüften beim Einsetzen des Kolbens ohne zusätzliche Manipulationen möglich ist.The task is to design the venting device in such a way that venting is possible when inserting the piston without additional manipulation.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind den Unteransprüchen entnehmbar.This problem is solved with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments can be found in the subclaims.

Ausfuhrungsbeispiele werden nachfolgend an Hand der Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigen:Examples of implementation are explained in more detail below using the drawings. They show:

Fig. 1 einen Schnitt durch das offene Kartuschenende und durch einen Kolben;Fig. 1 is a section through the open cartridge end and through a piston;

Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht auf diesen Kolben;Fig. 2 is a plan view of this piston;

Fig. 3 eine Seitenansicht und eine Draufsicht auf das Mikroporenfilter; und Fig. 3 is a side view and a top view of the micropore filter; and

Fig. 4 einen Schnitt durch einen Ringkolben für eine Zweikomponenten-Kartusche.Fig. 4 a section through an annular piston for a two-component cartridge.

Gemäß Figur 1 wird der Kolben 1 in das offene Ende einer Kartusche 2 eingesetzt, welche zuvor befullt wurde. An beiden Enden weist der Kolben 1 Dichtlippen 3, 4 auf, wobei die Elastizität der der Kartusche 2 zugewandten Dichtlippe 3 erzielt wird durch einen umlaufenden Einschnitt 5.According to Figure 1, the piston 1 is inserted into the open end of a cartridge 2, which was previously filled. The piston 1 has sealing lips 3, 4 at both ends, whereby the elasticity of the sealing lip 3 facing the cartridge 2 is achieved by a circumferential incision 5.

An der Kolbenoberfläche 6 ist mittig eine Entlüftungsbohrung 7 vorgesehen, die sich zur Kolbenunterseite hin erweitert. Am Kolben 1 ist angeformt eine die Entlüftungsbohrung 7 umgebende zylindrische Tasche 8, die zur Kolbenunterseite hin offen ist. In diese Tasche 8 ist ein zylindrisches Mikroporenfilter 9 eingesetzt. Es handelt sich hierbei um ein poröses Filter, wie es in der Medizintechnik zur Filtration von Flüssigkeiten bekannt ist. Bevorzugt besteht dieses Mikroporenfilter 9 aus einem Sintermaterial aus Kunststoff, beispielsweise aus PE oder PTFE mit einer Porengröße von 10 &mgr;&eegr;&igr; bis 80 &mgr;&eegr;&igr;. Das Sintermaterial weist offene Poren auf.A vent hole 7 is provided in the middle of the piston surface 6, which widens towards the bottom of the piston. A cylindrical pocket 8 is formed on the piston 1, which surrounds the vent hole 7 and is open towards the bottom of the piston. A cylindrical micropore filter 9 is inserted into this pocket 8. This is a porous filter, as is known in medical technology for filtering liquids. This micropore filter 9 preferably consists of a sintered plastic material, for example PE or PTFE with a pore size of 10 μηι to 80 μηι. The sintered material has open pores.

Beim Einschieben des Kolbens 1 in die Kartusche 2 kann die Restluft entweichen über die Entlüftungsbohrung 7 und das Mikroporenfilter 9. Infolge der geringen Porengröße kann jedoch das in die Kartusche 2 eingefüllte Medium nicht austreten.When the piston 1 is pushed into the cartridge 2, the residual air can escape via the vent hole 7 and the micropore filter 9. However, due to the small pore size, the medium filled into the cartridge 2 cannot escape.

Auf diese Weise ist eine sichere Entlüftungsmöglichkeit gegeben, ohne die Gefahr von Funktionsstörungen und dem Risiko von Bauteilebeschädigungen. Dem Abfüller der Kartuschen wird jegliches zusätzliche Handling erspart.This provides a safe venting option without the risk of malfunctions or damage to components. The person filling the cartridges is spared any additional handling.

Die Tasche 8 kann auch gebildet werden durch die zylindrische Wand 10 des Kolbens 1.The pocket 8 can also be formed by the cylindrical wall 10 of the piston 1.

Die Figur 4 zeigt einen Schnitt durch einen Ringkolben einer Zweikomponenten-Koaxialkartusche. Dieser Kolben ist mit einer oben offenen zylindrischen Tasche 8 versehen, die an ihrer zur Kolbenseite hin abgewandten Seite einen Boden 11 aufweist, an welchen die Entlüftungsöffnung 7 angeformt ist. In dieser Tasche 8 ist das Mikroporenfilter 9 eingesetzt.Figure 4 shows a section through an annular piston of a two-component coaxial cartridge. This piston is provided with a cylindrical pocket 8 that is open at the top and has a base 11 on the side facing away from the piston side, on which the vent opening 7 is formed. The micropore filter 9 is inserted in this pocket 8.

Besteht der Kolben 1 aus einem weichen, gegen das Füllmaterial nicht resistenten und nicht diffusionsdichten Kunststoff, dann kann auf der Kolbenoberseite eine dünne Abdeckscheibe befestigt werden, die aus einem gegenüber dem Füllmaterial diffusionsdichten und gegen das Füllmaterial resistenten Material besteht. Diese Abdeckscheibe ist mit einer Vielzahl kleiner Entlüftungsbohrungen versehen. Im Fall der Ausfuhrungsform nach Figur 4 ist diese Abdeckscheibe ringförmig. Sie schützt nicht nur den Kolben gegen das Füllmaterial, sondern verhindert auch, daß das Filter 9 in direkte Berührung mit dem Füllmaterial kommt.If the piston 1 is made of a soft plastic that is not resistant to the filling material and is not diffusion-tight, then a thin cover plate can be attached to the top of the piston, which is made of a material that is diffusion-tight and resistant to the filling material. This cover plate is provided with a large number of small vent holes. In the case of the embodiment according to Figure 4, this cover plate is ring-shaped. It not only protects the piston against the filling material, but also prevents the filter 9 from coming into direct contact with the filling material.
