Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for storing and dispensing viscous substances.
  • viscous in this context are all flowable, i. understood liquid to pasty substances, which may, for example, be gel-like.
  • the substances may be mixed in the application of at least two components.
  • the components themselves may also be viscous, but not all, but only at least one.
  • the viscous substances are, for example, adhesives or sealing materials, as used in dental technology.
  • the individual components are currently stored separately, for example, in bottles.
  • For use in the dental field are usually very small amounts, eg. Between 0.01 and 10 ml.
  • the dosage of such small amounts of substance is difficult, so that the desired mixing ratio is not accurate.
  • the substances are, after they are mixed, for example. With a brush or the like. Auxiliaries applied to the application site, whereby in addition, the risk of contamination of the individual components stored in the bottles arises.
  • a liquid container in the form of an elongate, flat bag is known, which is divided into two compartments.
  • the first compartment two superimposed and separate chambers are housed, in the second compartment a single third chamber, which is separated from the first two chambers.
  • the first two chambers are formed by two outer foils and a middle foil whose peripheral edges are sealed.
  • the first two chambers are filled with different liquids.
  • the third chamber which adjoins directly to the first two chambers and is formed by the two outer films of the first two chambers, contains no liquid.
  • the first two chambers merge into a tip facing the third chamber, the sealed edges of which have a lower bond strength than that of the sealed peripheral edges.
  • the container allows the mixing of at least two liquids, possibly also with a non-liquid substance.
  • a predetermined breaking point in the form of tear notches is provided in the edges of the two outer foils. By tearing off the end part of the third chamber at this point, the liquid content can escape from the third chamber.
  • This known liquid container should, for example, be used in the pharmaceutical sector or in adhesives. No contamination of the liquids or non-liquid substances can take place in the container because the peripheral edges of the container are hermetically sealed. By these tightly sealed peripheral edges and no leakage of liquids can be done.
  • two hands are required for emptying, since the container for discharging the liquid must be compressed flat, so that the liquid is not moved only within the container.
  • metering the amount of liquid discharged from the container is almost impossible.
  • EP 0 895 943 A2 is a device for storing and applying substances, preferably liquids in small quantities, known which comprises a container formed by two heat-sealed together films, the films together a chamber for receiving the liquid and a pocket for receiving a brush form. Between the chamber and the pocket a predetermined breaking point is formed in the connection of the two films, which is released by pressure on the chamber, so that the liquid can be pressed out of the chamber into the pocket and the tip of the brush located there can be wetted.
  • One of the two films may be a thermoforming film and the other film may be a cover film.
  • two chambers, a first and a second chamber may be provided for separately receiving different substances which are to be brought into communication with one another via a passage area to be selectively opened.
  • a connection to the second chamber is first made by pressure on the first chamber to mix the two components together.
  • the mixture leaves much to be desired.
  • the part of the device containing the deflated chamber is bent onto the second chamber so that the chambers on the cover sheet are in contact with each other lie and after pressure on the second chamber, the brush is wetted with the liquid mixture.
  • This device also has the disadvantage that the second chamber must be so large that it can accommodate the volume of both components. This either suffers from the component contained in the second chamber, because it is exposed during storage of the air, or the space above the second component must be filled or evacuated with an inert gas, which increases the manufacturing cost. To ensure that the bending process takes place at the right place, the two foils are drawn in laterally in the area between the two chambers. Due to the arrangement of the two chambers in series, they must be expressed one after the other. For all alternatives, nothing is mentioned about the way the components are filled. Because of the use of a brush as an applicator handling when applying the flowable substance on the application site is also possible only with two hands. In addition, manufacturing and storage of the device is complicated because of the brush required for applying the liquid mixture.
  • the device has a pocket, an applicator and at least one chamber with an indicator substance and possibly another chamber with a buffer substance, wherein the first chamber with the pocket and the possibly existing second chamber each with the first chamber and / or the Bag can be connected via a selectively open passage area.
  • the DE 100 56 212 A1 discloses a device for storing and dispensing a flowable composition having a first and a second foil, a dispensing area, a first chamber containing a first substance, and a second chamber containing a second substance, the chambers communicating with each other a selectively openable passage region are connectable, at least one of the films is deep-drawn in the region of the chambers, and at least one of the films in the region of the second chamber is preformed or moldable such that after activation of the device opening the passage region, the first substance below Completely convert volume increase of the second chamber.
  • the storage and spreading of larger amounts of substance to be made possible without the mixing result is impaired.
  • a dental bleaching system serving only for storage in which heated silica is to be used as the basis for the preparation of a paste with a hydrogen peroxide solution.
  • the paste serves as a non-reactive carrier to control the delivery of the hydrogen peroxide solution to a tooth surface.
  • the silica is initially contained in a predetermined amount in a mixing chamber, while the hydrogen peroxide solution in a predetermined volume taken in an ampoule. Both, the silica and the ampoule, are received in upwardly open recesses of a suitably deep-drawn support, which are covered for storage with a protective film.
  • a plastic packaging for the storage and delivery of active material which has several departments, which are intended for receiving liquid, solid or gelatinous material.
  • the compartments are formed by the connection of two flexible polymeric sheets so that there is at least one sealed storage compartment which is impermeable to the active material and a sealed receiving compartment.
  • At least one of the edges of the storage compartment is formed by a system which consists of an inner foam layer and adheres on its two outer surfaces to leak-proof flexible polymer films. External pressure on one of the compartments causes the foam layer to rupture without damaging the polymer sheets, thereby allowing the storage compartment to be emptied into the receiving compartment without exposing the active substance to the environment.
  • This plastic packaging is particularly useful for ready mixes of different components just prior to their use. It is not said how the storage compartment is filled and the active mixture is released from the package.
  • From the DE 31 22 237 A1 is a package for liquid filling material, consisting of a deep-drawn part and the deep-drawn from above tightly sealed cover sheet, in which there is a liquid medium and an insert for dispensing liquid in the space between the deep-drawn part and cover sheet.
  • the packaging has a predetermined breaking point, which is laid out so that when breaking off one part of the packaging from the remaining part of the insert is exposed, so that liquid are discharged through a passageway from the liquid space through the insert can.
  • This packaging is intended especially for use as disposable packaging or for samples. By suitable design of the insert (brush, sponge, dropper, stopper, etc.), the type and speed of the liquid delivery can be determined.
  • This packaging is complicated in their production and requires two-handed operation.

  • this dispensing device intended for pharmaceuticals is complicated to manufacture and cumbersome to handle, especially when two components are to be mixed, bring them with the applicator to a mixing area of the flat container and mix there.
  • the thinner side of the bag is welded or glued to its welding or adhesive edge with a thicker foil strip; at the same time a cutting-profiled bar between the thinner bag side and the overlying foil strip is inserted freely, the other end is firmly connected to the continuing foil strip to train at Switzerland Federation the film, which lies between the bag and the cut-outs, which the tear - Specify or separation point, is pulled out of the separating part and this under the pressure of the film, the thin-walled bag side slides across it sliding and creates an opening at the tear or separation point in the weld or adhesive seam between the film and bag, from which the filling contents dosed out by pressure on the bag, an opening which closes again due to the material elasticity of the film and the bag when pressure is released.
  • the WO 01/46037 A1 (Espe Dental) shows and describes a device for storing and dispensing a flowable substance from an upper and a lower foil, which form at least one chamber, a Ausbring Scheme and the chamber and the Ausbring Scheme connecting, selectively opening passage area, the films in the Peelable passage area and in the other areas are sealed together, and wherein at least in a partial region of the Ausbring Schemees by formation of waves in the upper and / or lower foil with course of the troughs along the flow direction surface enlargement is achieved.
  • two chambers arranged in parallel and separated by an intermediate wall are provided, which are parallel in the region of a chamber shoulder open into each other in a passage area.
  • Each of the chambers is intended to receive a flowable substance and both chambers are separated from the dispensing area by a peelably sealed passageway.
  • the peelbar sealed passageway also separates the chambers from each other. While the two chambers in the closed state of the device due to the sealed passage area have no connection with each other, a mixing of the two located in the chambers substances in the common dispensing area after opening of the passage area is possible.
  • the weakening of the passage area to facilitate the opening is done by a rotation of the chambers in the region of the chamber shoulder against a wing in the longitudinal direction of the Ausbring Schemees. After turning back to the initial position of the passage area is weakened so that even by slight pressure on one or both of the chambers opening of the passage area and thus a connection between the respective chamber or two chambers and the dispensing area can be achieved. It is also possible, if necessary, to apply only a portion of the amount of substance in the chamber due to reduced pressure on one of the chambers. As a result, for example, the mixing ratio of the two substances to be applied can be influenced, which, however, requires a complicated handling. In particular, this device also requires a two-hand operation.

  • the finished mixed product can be removed from the second container, for example. With an applicator. Even with this container, it is not possible to accurately meter the amount of liquid transferred from the first compartment to the second compartment.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a device for storing and dispensing viscous substances as a functional packaging, which is easy to produce, save space and easy to use, in which even small amounts of substances safely stored, if necessary in the correct mixing ratio with each other mixed and easy - eg in the dental field - can be applied.
  • the compact, as relatively short device according to the invention has the particular advantage that the components of the two central chambers, once they are folded on one another, both simultaneously and jointly expelled by pressure application - eg. Between the thumb and forefinger of a single hand - in the third chamber can be and thus with simple operation an extremely good mixing of the two components takes place, especially if mixing already takes place in the connecting channels.
  • the device according to the invention can be used for viscous substances whose individual components are likewise viscous, but need not all be.
  • viscous components can each be accommodated in the two middle chambers, and a pulverulent component can be accommodated in the third chamber, so that when mixed together a viscous substance is produced which can be expelled from the dispensing channel.
  • the film-like carrier may consist of a self-supporting thermoplastic deep-drawn part, while the cover film may be a relatively thin flat material, which is easily and hermetically sealed or glued to the carrier.
  • the predetermined breaking points can be created, for example, in that in their area the covering film can be more easily released from the carrier than in the edge area the connection between the covering film and the carrier.
