  • the Donors should be carried and operated with one hand to discharge the flowable or non-flowable medium. All or almost all components, especially the exposed ones Components should consist of plastic or injection molding.
  • the donor can work from a store during a work or Refill the stroke cycle. It can also be in separate Storage chambers several separately portioned and one after the other media cans to be discharged included. Furthermore, he can intended for single use or media discharge and be emptied after this. To avoid aging, chemical change or contamination of the medium is said to Storage chamber tight and possibly in the presence of germicidal Means to be locked.
  • the medium should only be in Come in contact with materials that are neither with the Medium still react chemically through contact with the Change the medium physically.

From this inner circumference and that The outer circumference of the shaft 15 is limited by axial channels 69, the laterally opposite the axis 10 and the channel 13 are offset. At the upstream ends of channels 69 each connects a transverse channel 68. The downstream Ends extend to the associated end of the shaft 15.
  • Die Channels 69 can be formed by longitudinal grooves in the shaft 15 and open into the swirl or swirl device 70.

  • the cam 49 stands over one of the plate surfaces, namely the wedge surface 47, partially before; 5, the cam 49 protrudes laterally the outsides of the central portion of part 21; 7, the cam 49 is only over the deepest part the surface 47 in front, but not over the highest part. 4 can due to the self-locking on a snap lock to be dispensed with.
  • the snap lock is here directly opposite the memory 8 possible.
  • the closing surface 19 is from the outlet 12 to the outer circumference of the memory 8 throughout.
  • Part 21 has one Deepening, which is limited throughout its scope is and receives the seal 30. So are the two sides Level 26 the narrow legs 46 and on both sides of it rectangular projections 55, 58 are formed, which adjoin this deepening.
  • the handle 55 stands around the wall 33 and the jacket 41 as a plate or button a measure that is at most as large as half the parallel, narrower extension of the wall 33. So the handle 55 lies at a distance from the outer circumference of the body 5 to 7.
  • Parts 8, 30 could also be made of the same material exist or be formed in one piece with each other.
  • the guide 40 and its openings 51, 52 are exclusive provided in the jacket 42.
  • the memory 8 first in direction 23 in body 5 and then in with this same direction in the body 7 are used. After that part 21 is used in direction 25.
  • the so educated The assembly can then be attached to the body 6 in the direction 22 become. Only then do the surfaces 47, 48 come into mutual contact Intervention until the axial locking pressure is established. It could also be just bodies 5, 7, 8 as pre-assembled Group are added to the body 6, after which the part 21st is used.
  • the opening movement of part 21 can also be a rotary motion, e.g. around axis 10 or around one Axis 10 laterally offset parallel axis. Also a move across to level 26 is conceivable.
