Abstract

Abstract A portable dispensing mixer for intermixing and dispensing two contiguous streams of material in a preset volumetric ratio. The dispensing mixer includes a syringe with two compartments, discharge assembly for discharging material from the syringe and a nozzle assembly for dispensing the discharged material from a common nozzle. The nozzle assembly comprises a common nozzle, a static mixing element with an arm extending from one end and a head. The head has an end stop for stopping rotation of the arm. The mixing element is caused to rotate by the ingress of material fed through the nozzle until the arm hits the end stop.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 215 words
A dispensing mixer for storing, intermixing and dispensing at least two materials from a common nozzle comprising: a syringe having at least two compartments for separately storing each of the materials to be intermixed; discharge means for simultaneously discharging material from each of said compartments; a diaphragm member located in each compartment at one end thereof for securing the material stored in each compartment respectively with each diaphragm adapted to open in response to a predetermined applied pressure from said discharge means; and a nozzle assembly comprising said common nozzle with said nozzle having an inlet end, an outlet end and a bore extending from said inlet end to said outlet end for receiving the materials dispensed from said syringe, a head extending from said nozzle for coupling said nozzle assembly to said syringe, an end stop projecting from said head; a static mixing element disposed in arbitrary alignment within the bore of said nozzle relative to said syringe for intermixing the materials fed to said nozzle, with said static mixing element including a multiple number of serially connected blades and having an arm extending from one end of said serially connected blades for engaging said end stop to render said static mixer immobile in response to the ingress of material fed through said nozzle.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 215 words
A dispensing mixer for storing, intermixing and dispensing at least two materials from a common nozzle comprising: a syringe having at least two compartments for separately storing each of the materials to be intermixed; discharge means for simultaneously discharging material from each of said compartments; a diaphragm member located in each compartment at one end thereof for securing the material stored in each compartment respectively with each diaphragm adapted to open in response to a predetermined applied pressure from said discharge means; and a nozzle assembly comprising said common nozzle with said nozzle having an inlet end, an outlet end and a bore extending from said inlet end to said outlet end for receiving the materials dispensed from said syringe, a head extending from said nozzle for coupling said nozzle assembly to said syringe, an end stop projecting from said head; a static mixing element disposed in arbitrary alignment within the bore of said nozzle relative to said syringe for intermixing the materials fed to said nozzle, with said static mixing element including a multiple number of serially connected blades and having an arm extending from one end of said serially connected blades for engaging said end stop to render said static mixer immobile in response to the ingress of material fed through said nozzle.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
A dispensing mixer as claimed in claim 1 wherein said head extends from the inlet end of the nozzle and wherein said arm extends from said static mixing element adjacent the inlet end of the nozzle.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 40 words
a dispensing mixer as defined in claim 2 wherein each diaphragm member has a multiple number of sections which open in response to pressure from said discharge means and close upon the removal of pressure to self lock each compartment.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
A dispensing mixer as defined in claim 3 wherein said syringe has a collar for engaging said head to couple said nozzle assembly to said syringe.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 34 words
A dispensing mixer as defined in claim 4 wherein said collar is permanently secured to said head to form a disposable mixer adapted to be thrown away upon discharging the contents from each compartment.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 17 words
A dispensing mixer as defined in claim 4 wherein said collar is detachably coupled to said head.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
A dispensing mixer as defined in claim 6 wherein said head is in the form of a clamp for removably engaging the collar from said syringe.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 39 words
A dispensing mixer as defined in claim 6 further comprising a sealing cap for each compartment with each sealing cap having an annular shoulder for slidably moving within each chamber in response to the movement of said discharge means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 22 words
A dispensing mixer as defined in claim 8 further comprising means for changeing the mixing ratio between the materials from each compartment.
