Abstract
Abstract Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition in a container having a body portion, a closure member for closing one end of the body portion having an outwardly projecting neck defining an outlet opening, and a closure piston at the other end of the body portion comprising a support for the closure member including an exit port for receiving the neck of the container and a moisture proof seal between the neck and the exit port. The support also includes a heater to melt the moisture curable composition which was forced from the container by pushing downwardly on the closure piston. A clamp clamps the body portion of the supported container in place on the support.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
199 words
A package comprising a moisture proof container for containing a solid moisture curable composition which is to be melted and dispensed as a liquid therefrom comprising a tubular body poriton, a closure member for closing one end of said tubular body portion, said closure member being sealingly secured to the body portion in such a manner as to leave a narrow annular space around the closure member between the closure member and the tubular body portion, and adapted to be heated to melt solid moisture curable composition adjacent thereto for discharge through an opening in said closure member, a closure piston at the opposite end of said tubular body portion, said closure piston having a rim projecting towards the closure member and in sliding sealing engagement with an inner wall of the body portion, the rim being received in the annular space between the body portion and the closure member as the piston approaches the closure member so that the container can be substantially completely emptied, and a moisture curable composition within said container comprising a prepolymer derived from diphenyl methane diisocyanate and a polyester derived from an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid and an aliphatic diol contained within said package.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
128 words
Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition in a container having a body portion, a closure member for closing one end of the body portion having an outwardly projecting neck defining an outlet opening, and a closure piston having a configuration corresponding substantially with that of the closure member at the other end of the body portion comprising means for supporting the closure member including exit port means for receiving the neck of the container, and means for providing a moisture proof seal between the neck and said exit port means, means for heating the closure member of the container to melt the moisture curable composition, clamp means for clamping the body portion of the supported container, and means for pressing the closure piston towards the closure member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
128 words
Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition in a container having a body portion, a closure member for closing one end of the body portion having an outwardly projecting neck defining an outlet opening, and a closure piston having a configuration corresponding substantially with that of the closure member at the other end of the body portion comprising means for supporting the closure member including exit port means for receiving the neck of the container, and means for providing a moisture proof seal between the neck and said exit port means, means for heating the closure member of the container to melt the moisture curable composition, clamp means for clamping the body portion of the supported container, and means for pressing the closure piston towards the closure member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
51 words
Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition according to claim 2 wherein said supporting means further comprises a platen having a central hole therein for receiving said exit port means and said means for providing a moisture proof seal between the neck and said exit port means comprises a rubber washer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
49 words
Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition according to claim 3 wherein the neck of the closure member has an external thread and said exit port means comprises an insert having an internal threaded hole for threadedly engaging with the threaded neck of the closure member of the container.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
50 words
Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition according to claim 3 wherein said platen is made of a heat conducting material and said heating means comprising heating block means, and means for securing said heating block means to said platen whereby the closure member of the container may be heated.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
47 words
Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition according to claim 5 wherein an outlet passageway is defined in said heating block means communicating with said exit port means, said securing means further comprising means for compressing said rubber washer between said platen and said heating block means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
18 words
Apparatus for dispensing a moisture curable composition according to claim 2 wherein said pressing means comprises a piston.
