Abstract
Abstract A device for mixing and dispensing pasty masses comprises a container 10 ing two parallel compartments 12, 13 for accommodating two components which react with each other and an opening 14 including two concentric spaces 15, 18 each communicating with a respective one of the compartments 12, 13. A static mixer 11 is screwed onto the container opening 14 and includes a sleeve-like separator 24 at its entrance end. In the assembled state, the separator 14 is sealingly contiguous with a cylindrical partition 16 which separates the two spaces 15, 18 of the container opening 14 from each other. The location where the two components are combined is thus axially spaced from the location where the component strings are interrupted upon removal of the mixer 11, so that clogging of the container 10 caused by mutual carry-over of the components is prevented.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
176 words
A device for mixing two components which react with each other and for dispensing the pasty mass mixed therefrom, comprising: a body member having separate feed means for said components, a circular opening having a cylindrical partition dividing said opening into an inner space and an annular outer space, said inner space communicating with one of said feed means, and said outer space communicating with another one of said feed means, a static mixer including a tubular housing having a rear open end adapted for connection to the opening of said body member and a dispensing opening at its forward end, and a sleeve-shaped separating element formed with outer and inner peripheral walls defining a rearwardly open annular groove therebetween which is joined to the rear end of said mixer, said separating element upon fitting of said mixer onto said body member receiving said partition in said annular groove and being sealingly connected to said cylindrical partition to constitute an extension thereof, said separating element serving to separate the two components until they reach said mixer.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
176 words
A device for mixing two components which react with each other and for dispensing the pasty mass mixed therefrom, comprising: a body member having separate feed means for said components, a circular opening having a cylindrical partition dividing said opening into an inner space and an annular outer space, said inner space communicating with one of said feed means, and said outer space communicating with another one of said feed means, a static mixer including a tubular housing having a rear open end adapted for connection to the opening of said body member and a dispensing opening at its forward end, and a sleeve-shaped separating element formed with outer and inner peripheral walls defining a rearwardly open annular groove therebetween which is joined to the rear end of said mixer, said separating element upon fitting of said mixer onto said body member receiving said partition in said annular groove and being sealingly connected to said cylindrical partition to constitute an extension thereof, said separating element serving to separate the two components until they reach said mixer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The device of claim 1, wherein said circular opening of said body member is internally threaded.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
29 words
The device of claim 2, wherein said mixer housing has an externally threaded portion engageable with said threaded member for removably securing said mixer housing to said body member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
34 words
The device of claim 3, wherein the end face of the externally threaded mixer housing and the end face of said outer peripheral wall of said separating element lie substantially in the same plane.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
43 words
The device of claim 1, wherein the ratio of the lengths of said outer and inner peripheral walls of said separating element is substantially inversely proportional to the ratio of the cross-sectional areas of said outer and inner spaces of said circular opening.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
46 words
The device of claim 1, wherein said feed means are disposed in side-by-side relationship with axes parallel to the dispensing direction, and wherein said mixer includes a series of blades, the leading edge of the first mixer blade lying in the plane defined by said axes.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
15 words
The device of claim 1, wherein said separating element is formed integrally with said mixer.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
32 words
The device of claim 1, wherein said body member is formed as a container having compartments for holding the components to be mixed, said compartments constituting said feed means and being sealed.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
37 words
The device of claim 1, wherein said body member is composed of structural parts adapted to be mounted in a working table, said feed means being formed by supply lines for connection to separate external component reservoirs.
