  • the granular material hereinafter referred to as granules, is provided in a dish and the liquid phase is added, whereby the granules are wetted.
  • the finished bone graft material thus prepared to the patient, it is brought to the destination with a spatula.
  • EP 0 470 393 B1 discloses a granular syringe in which a cap with a disk of porous material is plugged or screwed onto the outlet end of the syringe housing. To discharge the mixture, the cap is removed and a plunger is pushed forward.
  • EP 1 093 767 B1 discloses a syringe with a syringe barrel which is filled with granules.
  • a cannula tip is attached by means of a friction fit, which has a sieve in a recess. Through an opening, blood is sucked into the syringe barrel. If the blood is sufficiently mixed with the granules, the cannula tip is manually pushed down from the syringe barrel.
  • a syringe for the application of bone substitute material is known, which has a cylinder, is received in the granules.
  • the cylinder has at its distal end an external thread on which a removable attachment is held with an internal thread.
  • the attachment has an injection opening and drainage openings, through which liquid can be injected or sucked into the cylinder. If the bone substitute material is sufficiently saturated with liquid, the attachment is unscrewed and replaced by a curved discharge nozzle.
  • the mixing and discharge system should also be easy and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • a mixing and dispensing system for impregnating granules with a liquid and for discharging a mixture resulting therefrom, which has a syringe-like container for receiving the granules, with a peripheral container wall, a proximal container end and a distal container end.

  • a separator Disposed in a distal end portion of the container is a separator which is adapted to retain granules but to allow the passage of liquid.
  • the container has a predetermined breaking point proximal to the separating element, so that the distal end region located between the predetermined breaking point and the distal container end can be broken off from the container together with the separating element and thereby a discharge opening for discharging the mixture is created on the container.
  • the granules can on the one hand be retained in the container and effectively impregnated with liquid.
  • a sieve with a plurality of defined sieve openings or a filter can serve as separating element.
  • the separating element may be formed as a flat plastic disc manufactured by injection molding with a plurality of defined passage openings.
  • the separation element can be removed after impregnation of the granules with liquid due to the predetermined breaking point in a very simple manner. The resulting mixture can be discharged directly through the thus created discharge opening, without the need for an essay or the like to be attached to the mixing and dispensing system. The handling is thereby facilitated and is very intuitive.
  • the Trermelement may be formed integrally with the container wall according to a first embodiment.
  • An integrally formed respectively integrally with the container wall separating element has the advantage that a production of the container together with the separating element can be carried out in the same manufacturing step.

  • the separating element is at least fixed against displacement along the distal discharge direction, preferably also in the opposite (proximal) direction in the container.
  • the container wall may have at least one corresponding retaining means (eg in the form of at least one inwardly projecting projection in the form of a nose or a circumferential bead, or in the form of an inside groove), which supports the separating element against displacement at least in the distal, preferably also in the proximal direction is fixed in the container.
  • the release agent may be secured against rotation about the longitudinal axis of the container by the same or other retention means engaging the release means along the circumference. This is particularly advantageous when the release agent is initially connected to a closure, as will be described in more detail below.
  • the mixing and dispensing system further preferably comprises a removable closure on to close the container opening.
  • a closure prevents contamination of the container opening and of the container contents from occurring prior to use of the mixing and dispensing system due to environmental influences.
  • the closure is removed from the container so that the liquid can be received in the container through the container opening. After impregnation of the granules with the liquid, the closure can be re-attached to the container if necessary to re-close the container opening.
  • the closure can serve as a break-off aid for easier termination of the distal end region.
  • the closure has a stopper which extends counter to the discharge direction through the container opening to the separating element into the distal end region of the container.
  • a stopper which extends counter to the discharge direction through the container opening to the separating element into the distal end region of the container.

  • the closure is fixed to the container via a threaded connection, in particular with round or saw thread, as described above.
  • the closure together with the separating element can be connected to the container during assembly of the mixing and discharge system by axial pressing or pressing.
  • the separating element engages in the retaining means of the container wall and is thereby fixed in the container.
  • the closure can be solved without aids only by a screw again from the container.
  • the connection between the closure and the separating element ruptures without the user having to use excessive forces.
  • the separation of the closure from the separating element succeeds particularly easily when the separating element is fixed not only axially, but also with respect to rotations in the container. In this case, act on the connection between the closure and separating element when unscrewing the closure not only tensile forces, but also torsional forces, which facilitates the separation of the compound.
  • the container has a curvature and forms, distally of the curvature, an angled portion which extends outwardly from the central longitudinal axis with respect to a central longitudinal axis of the container, the angled portion preferably being at a bend angle between 20 ° and 50 ° extends outwardly away from the central longitudinal axis, and wherein the distal end portion is disposed in the angled portion.

  • the container may be prefilled with granules having an average granule diameter.
  • the separating element then preferably has passage openings whose diameter is smaller than the average granule diameter.
  • the mixing and discharging system described above can be used as follows. First, the mixing and discharge system is provided with granules, and the granules is soaked in a liquid.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système mélangeur et distributeur (1) ainsi qu'un procédé pour imprégner des granulés (G) avec un liquide et pour distribuer un mélange produit selon celui-ci. Le système mélangeur et distributeur (1) présente un récipient (2) destiné à recevoir les granulés. Un élément de séparation (4) est agencé dans une zone d'extrémité distale (25) du récipient, ledit élément étant conçu pour retenir les granulés tout en permettant l'entrée du liquide. Le récipient présente un point de rupture (27) proximal par rapport à l'élément de séparation (4) de manière à ce que la zone d'extrémité distale située entre le point de rupture et l'extrémité distale du récipient (23) puisse être détachée du récipient par cassure conjointement avec l'élément de séparation (4) et ainsi créer un orifice de distribution dans le récipient afin de distribuer le mélange.
