Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mixing capsule for accommodating a two-component mixture, in particular for producing a dental cup, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • mixing capsules for curable dental compositions are known in the prior art.
  • Examples of mixing capsules are disclosed, for example, in the following patent applications: EP-A-0 245 788, US 5,026, 283, DE 4315920 and DE-A-39 20537.
  • the mixing capsules mentioned are used for storing and mixing the starting components of a curable multicomponent mixture. As soon as the starting components are mixed with one another, a spontaneous polymerization reaction sets in, and within a few minutes the starting components form a hard material that serves as a tooth filling.
  • Multi-component mixture must be coordinated.
  • the ejection nozzle must be dimensioned such that the multi-component mixture can be pressed out of the mixing capsule with little effort.
  • Multi-component mixture is pressed into the cavity of a tooth to be repaired by the dentist using a known squeeze gun.
  • the treating dentist must let the ejection nozzle of the mixing capsule protrude as far as possible into the cavity of the tooth so that the cavity is completely filled when the material is pressed out.
  • this is due to the size the gun and the stiffness and limited length of the nozzle often difficult to accomplish.
  • a common feature of the known mixing capsules is that the ejection nozzles are each in one piece with the mixing capsule.
  • Syringes with interchangeable tips have been known for many years.
  • the syringes are used to store various solutions, such as etching liquids.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a mixing capsule which can be used for processing multi-component mixtures of different viscosities. Another goal is to create a capsule that allows the multi-component mixture to be used even in hard-to-reach places. Another goal is to propose a capsule that can be tailored on site to the needs of the treatment required.
  • a mixing capsule is characterized in that the mixing capsule and the ejection nozzle are formed at least in two pieces and can be connected to one another by means of releasable fastening means.
  • the mixing capsule according to the invention has the advantage that, depending on the viscosity, the flowable ones produced in the mixing capsule Two- or multi-component mix different spray nozzles can be used.
  • the manufacturer of the multi-component mixtures is therefore no longer forced to use different mixing capsules depending on the viscosity of the mixture, but can always use the same mixing capsule - but with different ejection nozzles. It can thus also be left to the dentist, depending on the application site, to insert spray nozzles of different length on the mixing capsule.
  • the ejection nozzle advantageously has a flange on the mixing capsule side, which flange can be sealed to the mixing capsule. This can prevent
  • the ejection nozzle with the flange can be plugged onto the mixing capsule (plug connection). This enables the spray nozzle to be put on or replaced quickly.
  • connection piece provided with a screw-shaped internal thread.
  • a connection part with a corresponding external thread can also be provided on the ejection nozzle.
  • the ejection nozzle can be reliably fixed with a screw connection.
  • a screw connection has the advantage over a snap or plug connection that the spray nozzle attached in this way cannot unintentionally come loose. If the ejection nozzle did not lie close to the mixing capsule, material could escape, but without the ejection nozzle itself being able to come loose.
  • a double helical thread with the same pitch is provided on the connecting piece, the paths of which begin offset from one another by 180 degrees.
  • This has the advantage that when the nozzle is firmly screwed on, there is an even contact pressure on opposite sides of the flange.
  • the flange is advantageously oval and can interact with the double screw-shaped internal thread of the connecting piece.
  • a nozzle is expediently formed on the outlet opening of the mixing capsule, and the ejection nozzle has a widened connecting part which can be placed on the nozzle. This guiding ability enables the ejection nozzle to be placed well on the mixing capsule, in particular when the connecting piece projects beyond the connecting piece by a certain amount.
  • the interchangeable ejection nozzle described above can be provided in the case of mixing capsules of various designs. These mixing capsules are intended for the reception of dental dental masses and in the initial state each comprise two separate chambers in which the starting components of a polymerizable two- or two-component polymerizer initiated spontaneously or by light
  • Multi-component mixture are kept.
  • Such mixing capsules usually have an axially displaceable activating element with which the wall obscuring the passage opening is destroyed or. can be opened.

  • the container part 13 is cylindrical and has an opening 16 for inserting the piston 15 and an end face 17, on which an ejection nozzle 19 is detachably arranged.
  • At the an annular groove 25 is present between two ring shoulders 21, 23 at the rear end of the container part and serves to receive a jaw of a pressing tool known in the industry.
  • the ejection nozzle 19 is not formed in one piece with the mixing capsule container 13, but rather as an individual part which can be detachably attached to the end face 17 of the container 13.
  • connecting means are preferably provided in the form of a rotary or screw connection.
  • a connection piece 27 with a helical internal thread 29 is formed on the container 13.
  • the internal thread 29 is designed as a double (two-part) thread with two screw tracks 31a, 31b offset from one another by 180 degrees (FIG. 3). Basically, you could also use a three or more split thread with screw tracks offset by 120 degrees or less.
  • a piece 33 is provided in the center of the connection piece 27, a piece 33 is provided.
  • An outlet channel 35 is formed in the socket 33, which opens into the mixing capsule 11.
  • the connecting piece 33 projects forwardly beyond the connecting piece 27 by a certain amount. This makes it easier to attach the spray nozzle 19 to the mixing capsule 11.
  • the ejection nozzle 19 has on the connection side a connecting flange 37 with a flat, annular sealing surface 39.
  • Two ears 41 are formed on opposite sides of the connecting flange 37. These can be engaged by the screw tracks 31a, 31b.
  • the connecting flange 37 consequently has an essentially oval shape.
  • the ejection nozzle 19 has a cylindrical connecting part 43, the inside diameter of which corresponds approximately to the outside diameter of the connecting piece 33.
  • a plurality of longitudinal ribs 47 are formed on the outside of the connecting part 43. The purpose of these is to ensure a good grip when screwing the ejection nozzle onto the mixing capsule.
  • the connecting part 43 has a conical nozzle channel section 43, which opens into a nozzle channel 49.
  • the ejection nozzle 19 has an outlet opening 51 at the front.
  • a mixing capsule representative of other types is described here by way of example for completeness:

  • one or more ring seals 62 are formed on the piston skirt.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une capsule de mélange (11) pour un mélange à deux constituants. Cette capsule comporte une partie récipient (13) pourvue d'une buse d'éjection (19) formée sur la face frontale. Un piston (15) est guidé dans la partie récipient (13) de façon à pouvoir se déplacer axialement. Une ouverture traversante (55) est ménagée dans la face frontale du piston (15), ouverture à laquelle une première chambre (53) est raccordée. La cavité entre la face frontale de la partie récipient (13) et la face frontale du piston (15) définit une deuxième chambre ou une chambre de mélange (35). A l'état non activé de la capsule (11), une membrane pouvant éclater (59) obture l'ouverture traversante (55) entre la première et la deuxième chambre. La capsule de mélange (11) et la buse d'éjection (19) sont conçues au moins en deux pièces et peuvent être reliées l'une à l'autre à l'aide de moyens de liaison détachables.
