Definitions

  • EP 0 541 972 A1 discloses a device for emptying a tubular bag containing a flowable substance, the tubular bag carrying a ring with a conical sealing surface at its discharge end and the device having a cylindrical housing for receiving the tubular bag between a displaceable piston and a cap .
  • a discharge opening is provided in the cap, which is provided by an annular contact surface for the conical sealing surface of the ring attached to the tubular bag.
  • the tubular bag is inserted into the cylindrical housing from its front or rear end, whereupon the front end of the housing is connected to the cap and is inserted into the rear end of the piston.
  • the conical sealing surface of the ring comes into contact with the contact surface in the cap, which is to ensure that the tubular bag cut off outside the ring can only be emptied to the outside through the opening of the cap, but no material in the space between the cap, Tubular bag and housing. Since the sealing force comes from the application pressure generated by the advance of the piston, it is automatically increased whenever the application pressure is high.
  • the correct operation of the known device requires that the ring is properly attached to the tubular bag in the radial and angular directions. Since the tubular bag is produced from a section of a tubular film and is only squeezed together at its ends and closed with clips, inaccuracies cannot be avoided when the ring is attached to the folded end of the bag by means of adhesive. Therefore, in practice it can happen that the ring and thus also its conical sealing surface sits obliquely and / or eccentrically with respect to the axis of the counter-sealing surface provided in the cap. This can result in a complete seal not being achieved.
  • the tubular bag contains a relatively low-viscosity mass, such as a fresh catalyst, there is the possibility that it begins to flow out at a low pressure on the piston before sufficient pressure is reached between the sealing surfaces of the ring and cap. In this case, the emerging mass itself can reach the area between the sealing surfaces and prevent an adequate seal from being achieved at all.
  • a relatively low-viscosity mass such as a fresh catalyst
  • the outer diameter of the tubular bag is at the upper tolerance limit or that the outer surface of the tubular bag or the inner surface of the cylindrical housing is contaminated. If the tubular bag is now inserted into the housing from behind, it may become jammed and thus does not reach its foremost position, so that the sealing surface of the ring does not reach the counter surface of the cap. The same can happen if the tubular bag is pushed too far into the housing from the front. Proper sealing is not guaranteed in these cases either.
  • the seal described at the front end of the tubular bag is particularly important when the tubular bag contains one of two or more components of a material mixture to be produced which are applied simultaneously. In this case, it is important to achieve the desired properties of the finished mass on an exact mixing ratio; this requires a complete application of the prescribed amount of each component.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device for emptying a tubular bag, in which the seal between the front end of the tubular bag and the cap is guaranteed even better than before.
  • the solution to this problem according to the invention is characterized in claim 1.
  • the ring which is then provided and is larger than the inside diameter of the housing means that the tubular bag can only be pushed into the housing from the dispensing side. If the housing and cap are then locked together, it is automatically ensured that the sealing surfaces on the ring and cap reach each other; the tubular bag is jammed in the housing and can therefore not be fully inserted, so it can at most happen that the housing and the cap can no longer be locked together, which can then easily be determined.
  • the ring is automatically aligned by the fact that it rests with its edge region against a support surface of the housing facing the cap, even if it should be glued to the tubular bag in a slightly tilted manner.
  • the ring is clamped in such a way that, on the one hand, the sealing surface is pressed against the annular contact provided in the cap and, on the other hand, the edge region of the ring is pressed against the support surface of the housing.
  • the development of the invention according to claim 2 has the advantage that when the housing and cap are put together, the ring is automatically centered and the conical sealing surface of the ring is aligned precisely with the counter surface of the cap.
  • the embodiment of the invention according to claim 3 ensures that the pressure exerted by the piston on the rear end of the tubular bag during the application process is also used for the sealing force between the ring and the cap when the tubular bag is jammed inside the housing.
  • the play between the housing and the cap allows the tubular bag pressurized to take the housing itself with it to such an extent that the sealing force is generated with certainty.
  • the measure specified in claim 5 results in a high sealing pressure due to the small contact area between the ring and cap.
  • the device consists of a cylindrical cartridge 1 which forms the housing mentioned above and in the claims, a substantially rigid cap 2 which can be plugged onto the front (lower in the drawing) end of the cartridge 1 and one into the rear end of the cartridge insertable and displaceable piston 3 .
  • the cartridge 1 is made from a section of a rigid cylindrical plastic tube with a constant inner diameter and has an end region 4 with a reduced outer diameter at the front, which forms the front end edge 5 of the cartridge 1 and an outer annular shoulder 6 .
  • the cap 2 has a hollow cylindrical end region 7 , which forms a rear end edge 8 and engages around the end region 4 of the cartridge 1 in the assembled state.
  • the cap 2 is penetrated by a discharge opening 9 , which begins at the rear end with a conical inlet 10 and ends in a spout 11 at the front.
  • the rear end of the inlet 10 forms an annular sealing edge 12 which is coaxial with the axis of the cartridge 1 (which in practice represents a narrow sealing surface).
  • a soft-flexible tubular bag 15 inserted into the cartridge 1 is shown, at the rear end of which a clip 16 closing it can be seen.
  • the tubular bag contains a more or less viscous mass, which can be a dental impression material in a typical application.
  • the piston 3 For receiving the part of the combined tubular bag located outside the clip 16 , the piston 3 has an axial recess 13 ; of the Piston 3 therefore presses against the rear end of the tubular bag 15 with a ring region 14 directed toward the front.
  • the tubular bag 15 carries a ring 17 which is glued to the tubular bag 15 with an edge pointing backwards.
  • the ring 17 has an outwardly projecting flange 18 , the edge region 19 of which has an outer diameter which exceeds the inner diameter of the cartridge 1 .
  • the ring 17 forms a conical sealing surface 20 that tapers towards the front.
  • a tubular bag 15 filled with a mass to be dispensed is inserted into the cartridge 1 from the front end until the edge region 19 of the ring flange 18 abuts the front edge 5 of the cartridge 1 .
  • the end of the tubular bag 15 projecting forward through the ring 17 which is designed similarly to its rear end, is cut off together with the clip also present at the front.
  • the cap 2 is then placed on the cartridge 1 , its end region 7 engaging around the end region 4 of the cartridge 1 , so that the sealing edge 12 formed by the inlet 10 touches the sealing surface 20 of the ring 17 .
  • the end regions 4 and 7 of cartridge 1 and cap 2 are dimensioned such that a joint remains between the shoulder 6 and the front edge 8 in the assembled state; Likewise, the front of the ring 17 and the rear of the cap 2 are designed and dimensioned such that an air space remains in front of the ring 17 outside the conical sealing surface 20 . This ensures that the cartridge 1 , the cap 2 and the ring 17 lie against one another in the manner described when the cap 2 is locked with the cartridge 1 .
  • the means for locking are not shown in the drawing; they can consist, for example, of inserting the cartridge 1 together with the cap 2 and tubular bag 15 into an appropriately designed device which has a drive for the piston 3 . Such a device is described in EP 0 492 413 A1.
  • the ring 17 should be glued to the tubular bag 15 in a tilted manner, it is automatically aligned in that the edge region 19 rests on the front edge 5 of the cartridge 1 . Furthermore, any radial offset of the ring 17 is compensated for by the inner surface of the end region 7 of the cap 2 .
  • the outer diameter of the ring flange 18 is only slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the end region 7 of the cap 2 , so that guidance is achieved.
  • tubular bag 15 cannot be pushed completely into the cartridge 1 due to a tolerance exceeded during manufacture or due to contamination, or if foreign bodies have been introduced in the vicinity of the sealing area, this prevents the cartridge 1 and cap 2 from locking and becomes thereby recognizable before the device is actually put into operation.
