Definitions
- the present invention relates to a mixing device for two-component cartridges or similar containers with two different components according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
- Such a mixing device comprises an inner feed channel for the first component and an outer feed channel for the second component.
- Inner and outer feed channels are arranged coaxially with each other, with the outer feed channel enclosing the inner feed channel.
- the outer feed channel opens directly into a first mixing zone.
- the inner feed channel also opens into the first mixing zone via at least one outlet with an outlet opening.
- the outlet has a deflection device for deflecting the first component radially outward.
- the mixing apparatus further comprises a mixing tube having a second mixing zone following downstream of the first mixing zone. In the mixing tube a plurality of axially successive mixing elements are arranged in the region of the second mixing zone.
- a mixing device of the type mentioned is, for example GB 2484694 B known.
- the inner feed channel is delimited by a short length of pipe which is inserted into the inlet region of a nozzle which can be attached to a two-component cartridge.
- the diameter of the short pipe section is substantially smaller than the diameter of the nozzle, so that between the nozzle wall and pipe section there is an outer channel which surrounds the inner feed channel.
- the inner feed channel serves to supply the first component
- the outer feed channel enclosing the inner feed channel serves to supply the second component.
- the first component is first led out of the inner feed channel radially out of the short pipe piece.
- the short piece of pipe includes four radially outwardly projecting semi-tubular outlets that reach up to the inner wall of the nozzle. Each of the outlets thus completely intersects the outer feed channel in the radial direction.
- the semi-tubular outlets are open against the flow direction of the second component, which is guided through the outer feed channel.
- the first component which flows through the inner feed channel, is deflected by the four outlets first radially outward and then in the circumferential direction and finally detected by the flow of the second component.
- the premixed components then enter together in the second mixing zone.
- a mixing device of the type mentioned is also off EP 2258466 A1 known.
- This mixing device also comprises an inner feed channel, which is coaxially surrounded by an outer feed channel.
- the inner feed channel is limited relative to the outer feed channel by a short piece of pipe.

- the components to be mixed meet in this mixing device on a baffle plate having an upstream projecting mandrel.
- the baffle plate has a plurality of radially projecting star arms, through which the mixing zone is segmented in the circumferential direction.
- This mixing device also requires a relatively large number of spiral mixing elements, some with further baffle plates arranged between the spiral mixing elements. This also results in a relatively large flow resistance. Even with the out EP 2527029 A2 known mixing device, the operation is therefore relatively cumbersome.
- Object of the present invention is to provide an improved mixing device of the type mentioned, which ensures easy operation, can be produced cheaply, is handy to handle, and provides optimal mixing of the two components.
- a solution according to the invention is provided when the first mixing zone is formed as an annular chamber, wherein the outlet opening of the outlet aligned parallel to the axis of the feed channels and in an inner wall of the annular chamber is formed.
- the first component is deflected radially outward before the first mixing zone and impinges on the second component in the first mixing zone substantially perpendicular to the flow direction of the second component.

- the mixing device has downstream of the outlet and in front of the second mixing zone via a second deflection device for deflecting the premixed components radially inwards.
- the second deflection device is a stepped constriction of the flow channel arranged after the outlet.
- the mixing of the two components can be further improved if the outer feed passage upstream of immediately before the first mixing zone is interrupted by a plurality of radially extending ribs, wherein the ribs are distributed uniformly over the circumference.
- the mass flow of the second component conducted through the outer feed channel is divided into several strands by the ribs so that the first component can enter between these strands into the first mixing zone.
- the inner feed channel opens into the first mixing zone via a plurality of outlets, the outlets being distributed uniformly over the circumference and each having an outlet opening.

- FIG. 2 shows a longitudinal section through the in Fig. 1 shown nozzle 14 without the nozzle insert 21 shown in the following figures, which is required for the mixing device according to the invention.
- the longitudinal section Fig. 2 clearly shows that the nozzle 14 is formed as a slightly tapered tube. At the cartridge side end, it has an internal thread 15, which serves for screwing to the two-component cartridge.
- the thread 15 is followed by a lower cup-shaped broader section 17, which merges via a step 19 in the upper narrow section 16.
- a plurality of ribs 20 are a plurality of ribs 20 as spacers in the direction of the thread from. The function of these ribs will be explained below.
- the nozzle 14 is formed substantially rotationally symmetrical and therefore defines an axis 4. The two components flow substantially in the axial direction through the nozzle, wherein take place in the mixing device diverse deflections.
- FIG. 3 also shows a longitudinal section through the nozzle 14 with a required for the inventive mixing device 1 nozzle insert 21.
- Different views of the nozzle insert 21 are shown in the following figures. The exact function of the insert 21 will be explained in more detail with reference to the following figures.
- the nozzle insert 21 in the lower portion 17 of the nozzle 14 defines an inner feed channel 3 and an outer feed channel 5, through which the two components are passed from the two-component cartridge into a first mixing zone 6.
- the premixed components enter a second mixing zone 8, which extends in the nozzle shown approximately over half of the upper narrow portion 18 of the nozzle.

- Fig. 8 It can also be seen that the cover 10 is spaced a distance from the stepped transition 19 between the lower portion 17 and the upper portion 18 of the nozzle. It should be noted that the annular chamber 6 is not segmented in the area in front of the ribs 20 by radially extending elements in the form of ribs, webs or the like. There, where the two components meet for the first time, there is a uniform annulus, which ensures optimal mixing of the two components.
- the first component flows through the inner feed channel 3 initially in the axial direction up to the outlet openings 7.
- the second component also flows through the outer feed channel 5 in the axial direction to the first mixing zone 6 and also enters into the same in the axial direction.
- the two components are premixed in the first mixing zone 6 and flow past the lid 10 in the axial direction. Due to the step-shaped transition 19 then takes place in turn a radial deflection to the inside. The radial deflection in turn follows an axial deflection in the second mixing zone 8.
- the double deflection already leads before the second mixing zone to a further mixing of the two components.
- a homogeneous mixing of the two components is then achieved.
- Mixing device however, a good pre-mixing of the two components is achieved already in the first mixing zone 6, since the two components meet in the region of the first mixing zone substantially perpendicular. Therefore, in the first mixing zone, vortices are also generated which favor mixing.

Demnach liegt bei einer Mischvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art dann eine erfindungsgemäße Lösung vor, wenn die erste Mischzone als Ringkammer ausgebildet ist, wobei die Auslassöffnung des Auslasses parallel zur Achse der Zuführkanale ausgerichtet und in einer inneren Wand der Ringkammer ausgebildet ist.The object is achieved by the features of
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung wird die erste Komponente vor der ersten Mischzone radial nach außen umgelenkt und trifft auf die zweite Komponente in der ersten Mischzone im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Strömungsrichtung der zweiten Komponente. Im Vergleich zu den bereits aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Mischvorrichtungen wird die Vorvermischung der beiden Komponenten dadurch erheblich verbessert. Aufgrund der verbesserten Vorvermischung der beiden Komponenten kann die Anzahl der Mischelemente in der zweiten Mischzone deutlich reduziert werden. Die erfindungsgemäße Mischvorrichtung baut daher insgesamt kürzer, kann günstiger hergestellt werden, und bietet trotzdem eine optimale Durchmischung der beiden Komponenten. Im Gegensatz zu den aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Mischvorrichtungen wird die erste Mischzone in Umfangsrichtung nicht durch den Auslass oder die Auslässe des inneren Zuführkanals segmentiert. Die Auslässe stehen in radialer Richtung nicht über den inneren Zuführkanal vor. Es findet eine gleichmäßige Durchmischung statt. Der größte Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung ist, dass die Anzahl der Mischelemente in der zweiten Mischzone deutlich reduziert werden kann, wodurch sich auch der Strömungswiderstand verringert. Die Erfindung stellt dadurch eine Mischvorrichtung bereit, die sich mühelos und ohne besonders großen Kraftaufwand bedienen lässt.In the mixing device according to the invention, the first component is deflected radially outward before the first mixing zone and impinges on the second component in the first mixing zone substantially perpendicular to the flow direction of the second component.

Due to the improved premixing of the two components, the number of mixing elements in the second mixing zone be significantly reduced. The mixing device according to the invention therefore builds shorter overall, can be produced more favorably, and still provides optimum mixing of the two components. In contrast to the mixing devices known from the prior art, the first mixing zone in the circumferential direction is not segmented by the outlet or the outlets of the inner feed channel. The outlets are not in the radial direction over the inner feed channel. There is a uniform mixing instead. The greatest advantage of the mixing device according to the invention is that the number of mixing elements in the second mixing zone can be significantly reduced, whereby the flow resistance is reduced. The invention thereby provides a mixing device which can be operated effortlessly and without particularly great expenditure of force.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der vorliegenden Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche. Sofern nicht anderes angegeben, beziehen sich sämtliche Richtungsangaben im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung auf die gemeinsame Achse der beiden Zuführkanäle.Advantageous embodiments of the present invention are the subject of the dependent claims. Unless otherwise indicated, all directions in the context of the present invention refer to the common axis of the two feed channels.
In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der innere Zuführkanal durch ein inneres Rohr begrenzt ist, welches den inneren Zuführkanal vom äußeren Zuführkanal trennt, wobei die Umlenkvorrichtung durch einen Deckel des inneren Rohrs gebildet ist, der senkrecht zur Achse der beiden Zuführkanäle ausgerichtet ist. Dadurch lässt sich der Massenstrom der ersten Komponente besonders effektiv radial nach außen umlenken. Bei dieser Ausführungsform ist die Geometrie der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung zudem besonders einfach gehalten, was eine einfache und kostengünstige Fertigung erlaubt. Der Deckel ist vorzugsweise beabstandet von dem strömungsausgangsseitigen Ende eines Rohrstücks, das den inneren Zuführkanal begrenzt, angeordnet. Ferner ist der Deckel vorzugsweise kreisrund ausgebildet und koaxial zum inneren Zuführkanal ausgerichtet.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention it is provided that the inner feed channel is delimited by an inner tube which separates the inner feed channel from the outer feed channel, the diverter being formed by a lid of the inner tube perpendicular to the axis of the two feed channels is aligned. As a result, the mass flow of the first component can be redirected radially outwards in a particularly effective manner. In this embodiment, the geometry of the mixing device according to the invention is also kept particularly simple, which allows a simple and cost-effective production. The lid is preferably spaced from the flow exit end of a length of tubing defining the inner feed channel. Further, the lid is preferably circular in shape and aligned coaxially with the inner feed channel.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung verfügt die Mischvorrichtung stromab des Auslasses und vor der zweiten Mischzone über eine zweite Umlenkvorrichtung zur Umlenkung der vorvermischten Komponenten radial nach innen. Vorzugsweise ist die zweite Umlenkvorrichtung eine nach dem Auslass angeordnete stufenförmige Verengung des Strömungskanals.In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mixing device has downstream of the outlet and in front of the second mixing zone via a second deflection device for deflecting the premixed components radially inwards. Preferably, the second deflection device is a stepped constriction of the flow channel arranged after the outlet.
Die Durchmischung der beiden Komponenten kann weiter verbessert werden, wenn der äußere Zuführkanal stromauf unmittelbar vor der ersten Mischzone durch mehrere radial verlaufende Rippen unterbrochen ist, wobei die Rippen gleichmäßig über den Umfang verteilt sind. Der durch den äußeren Zuführkanal geleitete Massenstrom der zweiten Komponente wird durch die Rippen quasi in mehrere Stränge aufgeteilt, so dass die erste Komponente zwischen diese Stränge in die erste Mischzone eintreten kann.The mixing of the two components can be further improved if the outer feed passage upstream of immediately before the first mixing zone is interrupted by a plurality of radially extending ribs, wherein the ribs are distributed uniformly over the circumference. The mass flow of the second component conducted through the outer feed channel is divided into several strands by the ribs so that the first component can enter between these strands into the first mixing zone.
Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung mündet der innere Zuführkanal über mehrere Auslässe in die erste Mischzone, wobei die Auslässe gleichmäßig über den Umfang verteilt sind und jeweils über eine Auslassöffnung verfügen. Bei dieser Ausführungsform wird quasi der Massenstrom der ersten Komponente in mehrere Stränge aufgeteilt, die gleichmäßig über den Umfang verteilt auf die äußere Strömung der zweiten Komponente treffen. Für die Durchmischung ist es von Vorteil, wenn jede Auslassöffnung parallel zur Achse der Zuführkanäle ausgerichtet ist. Von ganz besonderem Vorteil ist es, wenn der äußere Zuführkanal vor der ersten Mischzone durch mehrere radial verlaufende Rippen unterbrochen ist, und der innere Zuführkanal über mehrere Auslässe in die erste Mischzone mündet, wobei dabei die Anzahl der Auslässe der Anzahl der Rippen entspricht, und wobei die Auslässe und die Rippen in Umfangrichtung betrachtet jeweils auf gleicher Position angeordnet sind. Dadurch wird in der ersten Mischzone eine optimale Vorvermischung der beiden Komponenten erreicht. Vorzugsweise sind zumindest 6 Auslässe und 6 Rippen, besonders bevorzugt zumindest 8 Auslässe und zumindest 8 Rippen vorgesehen.According to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the inner feed channel opens into the first mixing zone via a plurality of outlets, the outlets being distributed uniformly over the circumference and each having an outlet opening. In this embodiment, the quasi-mass flow of the first component is divided into a plurality of strands which meet uniformly distributed over the circumference of the outer flow of the second component. For mixing, it is advantageous if each outlet opening is aligned parallel to the axis of the feed channels. It is very particularly advantageous if the outer feed channel is interrupted by a plurality of radially extending ribs before the first mixing zone, and the inner feed channel opens into the first mixing zone via a plurality of outlets, the number of outlets corresponding to the number of ribs, and the outlets and the ribs viewed in the circumferential direction are respectively arranged in the same position.

Preferably, at least 6 outlets and 6 ribs, more preferably at least 8 outlets and at least 8 ribs are provided.
Ein besonders einfacher Aufbau der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung wird dabei dann erreicht, wenn der Deckel über Stege mit dem inneren Rohr verbunden ist, die zwischen sich die Auslassöffnungen der Auslässe definieren. Für die Durchmischung hat es sich weiter von Vorteil erwiesen, wenn der Deckel in radialer Richtung mit dem Außenumfang des Rohres abschließt. Weiter von Vorteil ist es für die Durchmischung der beiden Komponenten, wenn die Stege parallel zur Achse verlaufen und am Innenumfang des inneren Rohrs ansetzen, welches den inneren Zuführkanal begrenzt. Dadurch sind die Auslassöffnungen zwischen den Stegen etwas gegenüber dem Außenumfang des inneren Rohrs zurückversetzt, wodurch sich die Durchmischung der beiden Komponenten verbessert.A particularly simple construction of the mixing device according to the invention is achieved when the cover is connected via webs to the inner tube, which define the outlet openings of the outlets between them. For the mixing, it has also proved advantageous if the lid in radial Completing direction with the outer circumference of the tube. It is also advantageous for the mixing of the two components, when the webs are parallel to the axis and attach to the inner circumference of the inner tube, which limits the inner feed channel. As a result, the outlet openings between the webs are set back slightly relative to the outer circumference of the inner tube, which improves the mixing of the two components.
Der Aufbau der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung vereinfacht sich für den Fall, dass der äußere Zuführkanal unmittelbar vor der ersten Mischzone durch mehrere radial verlaufende Rippen unterbrochen ist, weiter, wenn die Rippen an dem Rohr angeformt sind.The structure of the mixing device according to the invention is simplified in the event that the outer feed is interrupted immediately before the first mixing zone by a plurality of radially extending ribs, further, when the ribs are formed on the tube.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Mischvorrichtung vollständig in eine Düse integriert, die an eine Zweikomponentenkartusche ansetzbar ist. In diesem Fall wird auch das Mischrohr mit der zweiten Mischzone durch die Düse gebildet. Diese Ausführungsform gewährleistet, dass Zweikomponentenkartuschen auf möglichst einfache Weise mit der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung ausgerüstet werden können.In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mixing device is completely integrated in a nozzle which can be attached to a two-component cartridge. In this case, the mixing tube is formed with the second mixing zone through the nozzle. This embodiment ensures that two-component cartridges can be equipped in the simplest possible way with the mixing device according to the invention.
Der Aufbau der Mischvorrichtung vereinfacht sich dabei weiter, wenn ein Wandabschnitt der Düse die Begrenzung des äußeren Zuführkanals bildet. Eine besonders einfache Handhabung, insbesondere bei der Montage der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ergibt sich, wenn die Mischelemente der zweiten Mischzone mit dem Rohr, weiches die äußere Begrenzung des inneren Zuführkanals bildet, verbunden und vorzugsweise einstückig mit dem Rohr ausgeführt sind. Die erfindungsgemäße Mischvorrichtung besteht somit bestenfalls aus lediglich zwei Teilen, die zur Montage ineinander gesteckt werden.The structure of the mixing device further simplifies when a wall portion of the nozzle forms the boundary of the outer feed channel. A particularly simple handling, in particular during assembly of the device according to the invention results when the mixing elements of the second mixing zone are connected to the tube, which forms the outer boundary of the inner feed channel, and are preferably made in one piece with the tube. The mixing device according to the invention thus consists at best of only two parts, which are inserted into one another for mounting.

In
Abschließend wird die Funktion der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung zusammenfassend erläutert. Die erste Komponente strömt durch den inneren Zuführkanal 3 zunächst in Achsrichtung bis zu den Auslassöffnungen 7. Durch den Deckel 10 wird die erste Komponente dort radial nach außen umgelenkt und tritt in die als Ringkammer ausgebildete erste Mischzone 6 ein. Die zweite Komponente strömt durch den äußeren Zuführkanal 5 ebenfalls in axialer Richtung bis zur ersten Mischzone 6 und tritt auch in axialer Richtung in diese ein. Die beiden Komponenten werden in der ersten Mischzone 6 vorvermischt und strömen in axialer Richtung an dem Deckel 10 vorbei. Aufgrund des stufenförmigen Übergangs 19 findet danach wiederum eine radiale Umlenkung nach innen statt. Der radialen Umlenkung folgt wiederum eine axiale Umlenkung in die zweite Mischzone 8. Die doppelte Umlenkung führt bereits vor der zweiten Mischzone zu einer weiteren Durchmischung der beiden Komponenten. In der zweiten Mischzone wird daraufhin eine homogene Durchmischung der beiden Komponenten erzielt. Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtung wird jedoch bereits in der ersten Mischzone 6 eine gute Vorvermischung der beiden Komponenten erreicht, da die beiden Komponenten im Bereich der ersten Mischzone im Wesentlichen senkrecht aufeinandertreffen. In der ersten Mischzone werden daher auch Wirbel generiert, die die Vermischung begünstigen.Finally, the function of the mixing device according to the invention is explained in summary. The first component flows through the
