Definitions

  • the innovation relates to an ejection device for a cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • cartridges that contain two components that are located in concentrically arranged chambers.
  • the chambers are closed on the back by a piston, the piston being annular for the outer chamber.
  • cartridges of this type can also be emptied with the aid of an ejection plunger, which is sleeve-shaped with a central rod.
  • the sleeve wall comes into contact with the annular piston, while the central rod comes into contact with the piston of the inner chamber.
  • the central rod and the sleeve wall are connected to each other by a floor. The contents of the cartridge can be emptied by placing the bottom on a surface and pressing the cartridge into the ejection plunger.
  • This push-out device which only requires a push-out ram, is relatively inexpensive, but extremely difficult to handle.
  • the object is to design the ejection device for a cartridge containing at least two components in such a way that a simple emptying option is ensured, in particular that the mixer placed on the cartridge can be placed during emptying where the material of the cartridge is to be applied.
  • Figure 1 is a side view of the cartridge with ejection device.
  • Fig. 2 is a view in the direction of arrows II-II;
  • FIG. 3 shows a section along the line III-III in Fig. 1.
  • FIG. 4 shows a section along the line IN-IN in Fig. 3.
  • Fig. 5 is a plan view of the annular piston used in the cartridge.
  • FIG. 6 shows a section along the line VI-VI in FIG. 5th
  • the cartridge shown in FIGS. 1 and 4 is a two-component cartridge with an inner chamber 1 and an outer chamber 2 concentric therewith. Both chambers 1, 2 open into a cartridge outlet opening 3.
  • the chamber 1 is closed on the back by a piston 4 of circular cross-section, while the chamber 2 is closed by an annular piston 5.
  • the volumes of the chambers 1, 2 correspond to the mixing ratio of the two components contained in the chambers 1, 2. This means that the ejection device has to move the pistons 4, 5 by the same amount in the direction of the outlet opening 3.
  • the ejection device has a cap 6, which is connected to the back of the cartridge via bayonet catches 7.
  • the bayonet locks 7 serve as an axial lock for the cap 6, which is thus immovably connected to the rear of the cartridge in the axial direction.
  • the axial securing of the cap 6 on the back of the cartridge can also be done by a thread engagement between the cap and the cartridge.
  • the cap 6 has a central threaded bore 8, the thread of which is in engagement with the thread of a threaded spindle 9.
  • the threaded spindle 9 has a cylindrical extension 10 which bears against the piston 4 as a bearing.
  • the part of the threaded spindle 9 projecting from the cap 6 is rotatably mounted in a head plate 11 and ends in a wing-like handle 12 projecting beyond the head plate 11.
  • three pressure rods 13 are provided, which are arranged at a radial distance from the spindle 9, offset from one another by 120 °. These push rods 13 run from the top plate 11 parallel to the threaded spindle 9 in the direction of the cap 6 and are guided through holes 14 through this cap into the interior of the cartridge. On the cartridge-side ends of the push rods 13, an annular abutment 16 is placed over bores 15, which abuts against the annular piston 5.
  • Figures 1 and 4 show the starting position of the ejection device when the cartridge is filled and to be emptied.
  • the threaded spindle 9 is rotated via the handle 12, which screwed into the interior of the cartridge via the thread of the threaded bore 8. Due to the abutment 10 resting on the back of the piston 4, this piston 4 is displaced in the direction of the cartridge outlet opening 3. Since the axial movement of the threaded spindle 9 is also carried out by the head plate 11, the push rods 13 are also moved in the direction of the cartridge synchronously with the threaded spindle 9. Their abutment 16 thus moves the piston 5 synchronously with the piston 4.
  • the threaded bore 8 is arranged in a sleeve 17 which projects beyond the plane of the cap 6.
  • Support ribs 18 run from the edge of the cap 6 to the sleeve 7.
  • the bore supporting the cylindrical projection 19 of the threaded spindle 9 is also arranged in a sleeve 20, to which 11 support ribs 21 extend from the edge of the head plate.
  • the threaded spindle 9 is supported with a shoulder 22 on the outside of the sleeve 20.
  • pistons 4 and 5 are resistant to the outgassing of such substances.
  • the pistons are therefore, as illustrated in Figures 5 and 6, made of polyamide. However, since this material is too hard to form sealing lips, they are made of low-density polyethylene.
  • the actual piston 4 or 5 is first injection molded from polyamide. In a subsequent second operation, the sealing lips 23 are molded from LDPE.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'éjection pour une cartouche présentant deux chambres (1, 2), placées de manière concentrique l'une par rapport à l'autre, et un piston (4, 5) pour chaque chambre (1, 2). Ce dispositif d'éjection présente des poussoirs d'éjection qui peuvent coulisser en direction de l'ouverture de cartouche (3). Ces poussoirs d'éjection sont guidés à travers un capuchon (6) pouvant être bloqué dans le sens axial avec la cartouche. Les poussoirs d'éjection pour le piston annulaire (5) sont raccordés entre eux au niveau de leurs extrémités extérieures par l'intermédiaire d'un élément de tête (11) sur lequel prend appui une broche filetée (9) s'étendant à travers un orifice fileté (8) du capuchon (6) et servant de poussoir d'éjection pour le piston central (4).
