Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pressure cell for discharging multicomponent substance contained therein, in particular a multicomponent substance for forming a hardening layer when coating a substrate, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • a pressure cell of the aforementioned type is known for example from WO-85/00157 and partly also from WO-02/076852.
  • This known pressure box is formed as an elongated container with a arranged at a discharge-side end thereof dome and .A arranged at the other end thereof bottom.
  • On Dom is, coaxial with the container, arranged a valve for discharging the multi-component substance.
  • an elongated inner sleeve which is secured at one end thereof to the bottom and sealed thereto, while the other end of the inner sleeve is exposed within the container and sealed by a cover which can be deflashed by the inner sleeve
  • an elongate plunger is arranged, of which there is an inner-side longitudinal section inside the inner sleeve and an outer longitudinal section outside the container. The plunger goes through the floor at a transition point between said lengths and is there on the one hand sealed against the ground and thus relative to the container, on the other hand on the ground and thus rotatable relative to the container but not axially displaceable.
  • the plunger is provided at least on a part of its inner-side longitudinal portion with an external thread, with a corresponding internal thread of a bore of a relative to the inner sleeve displaceable threaded nut part cooperates to axially displace the Gewindemutterteil upon rotation of the plunger and to remove the latter by the interaction with the latter of the inner sleeve, wherein an actuating handle for rotating the plunger is mounted coaxially on the outer side longitudinal portion of the plunger.
  • a component of the substance contained in the inner sleeve can come into contact with a component of the substance contained in the container outside the inner sleeve, whereupon the two components mix with one another in the container and thereby the ready-to-use multicomponent substance ready for dispensing is provided to be applied to the substrate when opening the valve of the pressure cell.
  • the rotation of the actuating handle relative to the container causes "activation" of the pressure can in the sense that separately present components mix with each other upon activation, thereby providing the ready-to-use multicomponent substance.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to prevent a unintentional "activation" of the pressure cell in a pressure cell of the type mentioned and to make a wanton unauthorized "activation” on the pressure cell recognizable.
  • a pressure cell of the type mentioned is characterized according to the invention by the combination of the features specified in claim 1.
  • Advantageous developments of the inventive pressure box are defined in the dependent claims.
  • the inventive pressure box of the actuating handle on the plunger axially between a safety position and a Sliding actuating position.
  • the actuating handle In the safety position, the actuating handle is located at an axial distance from the container, and it is freely rotatable on the plunger.
  • the actuating handle In the actuated position, the actuating handle is in the immediate axial vicinity of the container, and it is rotatably connected to the plunger. Only in the safety position is thus between the operating handle and the container around the plunger around a securing gap.
  • suitable spacer is provided in the securing gap suitable spacer is provided. This spacer is insertable into the securing gap to prevent displacement of the actuating handle on the plunger from the safety position to the actuation position. To release said shift from the securing gap, the spacer is removable from the securing gap.
  • the operating handle can not rotate the plunger when the spacer at the pressure box, i. in the safety gap: thus, thanks to the invention, an unintentional "activation" of the inventive pressure cell is prevented.
  • the spacer comprises a clamp member which, when the spacer is in the safety gap, is clamped tightly to the plunger.
  • the spacer is detachably attached to the plunger, i. attached to the pressure cell.
  • the spacer preferably has a pull-out aid designed as a handle, tab or the like, which facilitates its removal from the securing gap, wherein this pull-out aid can optionally be designed as a flexible tab arranged on the spacer and can be returned to the wall profile of the container by slightest stress.
  • this has around its axis radially arranged radial arms and indentations formed therebetween, in which the spacer located in the securing gap for the fingers of an operator can be reached.
  • This allows the operator to easily remove it from the securing gap by pressing on the spacer.
  • the pressure box advantageously has a regular representational form, which the packaging, for example, with labels and quite generally supplying the pressure cell and in particular the installation of the pressure cell on the shelf of a department store easier.
  • the actuating handle located in the actuation position is rotatably connected to the plunger by press fitting, which allows a particularly favorable production.
  • the operating handle located in the operating position with the plunger by cooperation of at least one survey with a corresponding recess rotatably connected, elevation and depression are mutually arranged on the operating handle and plunger, for example, with the survey as inwardly projecting flattening in an axial bore on the operating handle and with the recess as milled flattening on the plunger.
  • the displacement of the actuating handle from the safety position to the actuation position is irreversible: as a significant advantage is achieved in that it is not possible to reverse the recognizability of a willful unauthorized "activation" on the pressure cell.
  • the irreversibility of the displacement of the actuating handle from the safety position to the actuating position is ensured by a press fit between the actuating handle and the plunger.
  • Fig. 1 shows a pressure cell according to the prior art according to WO-85/00157 in axial section. Then show:

  • Within the container 02 and coaxially with an elongated tubular inner sleeve 08 is arranged.
  • the inner sleeve 08 is fixed to the bottom 06 and sealed against this. With its other, dome-axial End 10, the inner sleeve 08 is free within the container 02.
  • the inner sleeve 08 is sealed at its dome-side end 10 by a cover 11, said cover 11 is absprengbar of the inner sleeve 08.
  • an elongated plunger 12 is arranged. An inside longitudinal portion 13 of the plunger 12 is located within the inner sleeve 08 and the container 02, and an outer longitudinal portion 14 of the plunger 12 is located outside the inner sleeve 08 and the container 02.
  • the plunger 12 passes through the bottom 06 of the container 02.
  • the plunger 12 is sealed against the bottom 06 and thus sealed against the container 02 and rotatably supported on the bottom 06 and thus relative to the container 02 but axially non-displaceable.
  • the operating handle 20 is in its operating position 22 in the immediate axial vicinity of the bottom end 05 of the container 02 (see in Fig. 3), in its safety position 21, however, at an axial distance from the bottom end 05 of the container 02 (see, in Fig. 2a and 2b), being in this safety position 21 between the actuating handle 20 and the bottom end 05 of the container 02, around the plunger around, a Securing gap 23 forms, in which a matching spacer 24 is used, as shown in Fig. 2a and 2b.
  • the operating handle 20 on the plunger 12 can be moved axially from its safety position 21 to its actuating position 22.
