Abstract

Abstract A dispenser for applying an adhesive mixture, the constituents of which are contained within the dispenser in the form of small capsules, including a hollow cylindrical housing having a piston member slidably positioned therein and sealingly closing one end thereof. The other end of the housing includes a closure portion having a plurality of bores formed therein, the bores having a diameter of a size smaller than the capsules. Means for moving the piston member are provided which enable the piston member to crush the capsules, mix the adhesive constituent and force the mixture through the bores provided in the closure portion.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 111 words
An adhesive mixer and dispenser device comprising: a housing having a substantially cylindrical bore formed therethrough; a piston slidably disposed in and sealably closing one end of said bore; means for moving said piston axially in said bore; end closure means at the other end of said bore having a plurality of small passages communicating from said housing to the outside; and a plurality of frangible capsules larger in diameter than said passages, each containing one or the other of the constituents of a two-part adhesive system contained in said housing, whereby the capsules are crushed, the contents mixed and dispensed and the crushed capsules are retained by said small passages.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 111 words
An adhesive mixer and dispenser device comprising: a housing having a substantially cylindrical bore formed therethrough; a piston slidably disposed in and sealably closing one end of said bore; means for moving said piston axially in said bore; end closure means at the other end of said bore having a plurality of small passages communicating from said housing to the outside; and a plurality of frangible capsules larger in diameter than said passages, each containing one or the other of the constituents of a two-part adhesive system contained in said housing, whereby the capsules are crushed, the contents mixed and dispensed and the crushed capsules are retained by said small passages.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 55 words
