Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Mehrkomponentenkartusche mit mindestens zwei nebeneinander angeordneten Kartuschenbehältern nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a multicomponent cartridge having at least two cartridge containers arranged next to one another according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine derartige Mehrkomponentenkartusche ist aus der US 5 249 709 A bekannt. Dort sind zwei nebeneinander angeordnete hohlzylindrische Kartuschenbehälter durch eine Stiftverbindung zusammensteckbar miteinander verbunden. Hierzu sind an einem Quersteg am Kartuschenhals der beiden Kartuschenbehälter jeweils ein Verbindungsstift und eine dazu passende Aufnahme angeordnet. Die Verbindungsstifte und die Aufnahmen sind an den Querstegen derart angeordnet, dass der Verbindungsstift an dem einen Quersteg in die Aufnahme am jeweils anderen Quersteg passt. Zur Verbindung der beiden Kartuschenbehälter an hinteren Ende ist an dem einen Kartuschenbehälter ebenfalls ein Verbindungsstift und an dem anderen Kartuschenbehälter eine dazu passende Aufnahme vorgesehen. Die Verbindungsstifte und die dazugehörigen Aufnahmen sind zwar zur besseren Halterung konisch ausgeführt, dennoch kann die Verbindung relativ einfach gelöst werden. Besonders wenn auf eine derartige Mehrkomponentenkartusche ein Schlag ausgeübt wird, kann es ohne weiteres vorkommen, dass die beiden Kartuschenbehälter beim Abfüllen, Lagern oder Applizieren getrennt werden, was zu Handhabungsproblemen führen kann oder wodurch eine leckagefreie Verbindung mit einem statischen Mischer nicht mehr gewährleistet ist.Such a multi-component cartridge is from the US 5 249 709 A known. There are two juxtaposed hollow cylindrical cartridge container connected together by a pin connection. For this purpose, in each case a connecting pin and a matching receptacle are arranged on a transverse web on the cartridge neck of the two cartridge containers. The connecting pins and the receptacles are arranged on the transverse webs such that the connecting pin fits on the one transverse web into the receptacle on the respective other cross web. To connect the two cartridge containers to the rear end, a connecting pin is likewise provided on the one cartridge container and a matching receptacle on the other cartridge container. Although the connecting pins and the associated receptacles are tapered for better retention, nevertheless, the connection can be relatively easily solved. Especially when impact is applied to such a multicomponent cartridge, it may easily happen that the two cartridge containers are separated during filling, storage or application, which can lead to handling problems or whereby a leak-free connection with a static mixer is no longer guaranteed.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Mehrkomponentenkartusche der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die einfach herstellbar ist und eine sichere Verbindung zwischen den Kartuschenbehältern gewährleistet.The object of the invention is to provide a multi-component cartridge of the type mentioned, which is easy to manufacture and ensures a secure connection between the cartridge containers.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Mehrkomponentenkartusche mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen und vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This object is achieved by a multi-component cartridge having the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments and advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Mehrkomponentenkartusche ist im Bereich der oberen und/oder unteren Verbindungselemente eine zusätzliche Rasteinrichtung zur sicheren Halterung der beiden Kartuschenbehälter im zusammengesteckten Zustand vorgesehen. Durch diese Rasteinrichtung wird eine unerwünschte Trennung der beiden Kartuschenbehälter nach dem Zusammenstecken verhindert.In the case of the multicomponent cartridge according to the invention, an additional latching device for secure holding of the two cartridge containers in the assembled state is provided in the region of the upper and / or lower connecting elements. By this locking device an undesirable separation of the two cartridge container is prevented after mating.

In einer einfach herstellbaren und kostengünstigen Ausführung besteht die Rasteinrichtung aus miteinander korrespondierenden Rastverzahnungen, die an den beiden Kartuschenbehältern angeordnet sind. Zweckmäßigerweise können die miteinander korrespondierenden Rastverzahnungen an einander zugewandten geraden Seitenflächen an Kartuschenhälsen der beiden Kartuschenbehälter angebracht sein.In a simple to produce and inexpensive embodiment, the locking device consists of mutually corresponding locking teeth, which are arranged on the two cartridge containers. Conveniently, the mutually corresponding locking teeth may be attached to each other facing straight side surfaces of cartridge necks of the two cartridge containers.

Die Rastverzahnungen sind vorzugsweise in Art einer Sägezahnverzahnung ausgeführt, deren Zähne in Bewegungsrichtung beim Zusammenstecken der Kartuschenbehälter gesehen eine flachere Vorderseite und eine steil abfallende Rückseite aufweisen. Dadurch können die Kartuschenbehälter einfach zusammengesteckt, jedoch nicht mehr getrennt werden.The locking teeth are preferably designed in the manner of a saw tooth, the teeth seen in the direction of movement during mating of the cartridge container have a flatter front and a steeply sloping back. This allows the cartridge containers are simply plugged together, but no longer be separated.

In einer zweckmäßigen Ausführung sind die unteren Verbindungselemente zum Zusammenstecken der Kartuschenbehälter in Richtung ihrer Längsachsen und die oberen Verbindungselemente zum Zusammenstecken der Kartuschenbehälter quer zu ihren Längsachsen ausgebildet. Dadurch sind die Kartuschenbehälter sowohl in Längsrichtung als auch in Querrichtung gesichert.In an expedient embodiment, the lower connecting elements for mating the cartridge container in the direction of their longitudinal axes and the upper connecting elements for mating the cartridge container are formed transversely to their longitudinal axes. As a result, the cartridge containers are secured both in the longitudinal direction and in the transverse direction.

Die oberen Verbindungselemente bestehen in zweckmäßiger Weise aus einem an der einen Seite eines Querstegs angeformten T-förmigen Ansatz und einer zum Ansatz passenden T-förmigen Nut an der anderen Seite des Querstegs. Die Verbindungselemente können aber auch auf andere geeignete Weise ausgeführt sein.The upper connecting elements are expediently made of a formed on one side of a crosspiece T-shaped projection and a matching T-shaped groove on the other side of the crosspiece. However, the connecting elements can also be embodied in other suitable ways.

Die in Figuren 1 in einer Vorderansicht schematisch Mehrkomponentenkartusche enthält zwei im Wesentlichen hohlzylindrische Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2, die über im Folgenden näher erläuterte Verbindungselemente zusammensteckbar miteinander verbunden sind.The multi-component cartridge shown schematically in FIGS. 1 in a front view contains two substantially hollow-cylindrical cartridge containers 1 and 2, which are connected to one another in a plug-in manner via connecting elements explained in more detail below.

Wie besonders aus Figur 2 hervorgeht enthalten die beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 an ihren oberen Enden jeweils einen in Form eines Halbzylinders ausgeführten Kartuschenhals 3 bzw. 4 mit jeweils einer im Querschnitt halbmondförmigen Austragsöffnung 5 bzw. 6. Die beiden Kartuschenhälse 3 und 4 sind derart ausgebildet, dass sie im zusammengesteckten Zustand der beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 einen in der Draufsicht kreisrunden Anschlussstutzen 7 für einen Statikmischer oder ein anderes geeignetes Mischerelement bilden. An der Außenseite der beiden Kartuschenhälse 3 und 4 sind Gewindegänge 8 und 9 angeformt, die sich im zusammengesteckten Zustand der beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 zu einem gemeinsamen Außengewinde ergänzen. Auf dieses Außengewinde kann eine nicht dargestellte Überwurfmutter zur Befestigung des ebenfalls nicht gezeigten Mischerelements aufgeschraubt werden. An den beiden Kartuschenhälsen 3 und 4 sind unterhalb der Gewindegänge 8 und 9 außerdem quer zur Längsachse des jeweiligen Kartuschenbehälters 1 und 2 verlaufende Querstege 10 und 11 angeformt. An diesen Querstegen 10 und 11 sind obere Verbindungselemente zur Verbindung der beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 angeordnet.As can be seen in particular from FIG. 2, the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 each contain at their upper ends a cartridge neck 3 or 4 in the form of a half cylinder, each having a crescent-shaped discharge opening 5 and 6, respectively. The two cartridge necks 3 and 4 are designed in this way in that, in the assembled state of the two cartridge containers 1 and 2, they form a connection stub 7, circular in plan view, for a static mixer or another suitable mixer element. On the outside of the two cartridge necks 3 and 4 threads 8 and 9 are formed, which complement each other in the assembled state of the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 to a common external thread. On this external thread, a union nut, not shown, can be screwed for fastening the mixer element, also not shown. At the two cartridge necks 3 and 4 are also below the threads 8 and 9 transverse to the longitudinal axis of the respective cartridge container 1 and 2 extending transverse webs 10 and 11 formed. At these transverse webs 10 and 11 upper connecting elements for connecting the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 are arranged.

Aus den Figuren 3 und 4 ist ersichtlich, dass die oberen Verbindungselemente des dort gezeigten Kartuschenbehälters 2 aus einem an der einen Seite des Querstegs 11 angeformten T-förmigen Ansatz 12 und einer zum Ansatz passenden T-förmigen Nut 13 an der anderen Seite des Querstegs 11 bestehen. Auch am Quersteg 10 des anderen Kartuschenbehälters 1 sind entsprechende Verbindungselemente vorgesehen, so dass der T-förmige Ansatz 12 des einen Kartuschenbehälters beim Zusammenstecken der beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 in die T-förmige Nut 13 der jeweils anderen Kartusche passen. Dadurch wird eine Schiebeverbindung quer zu den Längsachsen der Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 geschaffen.It can be seen from FIGS. 3 and 4 that the upper connecting elements of the cartridge container 2 shown there consist of a T-shaped projection 12 integrally formed on one side of the transverse web 11 and of an attachment matching T-shaped groove 13 on the other side of the crosspiece 11 exist. Also on the crosspiece 10 of the other cartridge container 1 corresponding connecting elements are provided, so that the T-shaped projection 12 of a cartridge container when mating the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 fit into the T-shaped groove 13 of the other cartridge. As a result, a sliding connection is created transversely to the longitudinal axes of the cartridge containers 1 and 2.

An den beiden Kartuschenbehältern 1 und 2 ist im Bereich der oberen Verbindungselemente 12 und 13 eine zusätzliche Rasteinrichtung 14 zur sicheren Halterung der beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 im zusammengesteckten Zustand vorgesehen. Die Rasteinrichtung 14 besteht bei der gezeigten Ausführung aus miteinander korrespondierenden Rastverzahnungen 15, die an den einander zugewandten geraden Seitenflächen 16 der Kartuschenhälse 3 und 4 angeordnet sind. In Figur 4 ist die am Kartuschenhals 4 des Kartuschenbehälters 2 zwischen den beiden Verbindungselementen 12 und 13 angeordnete Rastverzahnung 15 gezeigt. Am Kartuschenhals 3 des Kartuschenbehälters 1 ist eine entsprechende Rastverzahnung 15 vorgesehen. Wie besonders aus Figur 4 hervorgeht, ist die Rastverzahnung 15 in Art einer Sägezahnverzahnung ausgeführt, deren Zähne in Bewegungsrichtung beim Zusammenstecken der Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 gesehen eine flachere Vorderseite 21 und ein steil abfallende Rückseite 17 aufweisen. Dadurch können die beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 im oberen Bereich quer zu ihren Längsachsen einfach zusammengesteckt, jedoch nicht mehr getrennt werden.At the two cartridge containers 1 and 2, an additional latching device 14 for secure mounting of the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 in the assembled state is provided in the region of the upper connecting elements 12 and 13. The latching device 14 consists in the embodiment shown of mutually corresponding latching teeth 15 which are arranged on the mutually facing straight side surfaces 16 of the cartridge necks 3 and 4. FIG. 4 shows the latching toothing 15 arranged on the cartridge neck 4 of the cartridge container 2 between the two connecting elements 12 and 13. At the cartridge neck 3 of the cartridge container 1, a corresponding locking toothing 15 is provided. As can be seen in particular from FIG. 4, the latching toothing 15 is embodied in the manner of a sawtooth toothing whose teeth have a flatter front side 21 and a steeply sloping rear side 17 when viewed in the direction of movement when the cartridge containers 1 and 2 are plugged together. As a result, the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 in the upper region transverse to their longitudinal axes simply plugged together, but not separated.

In Figur 5 sind die unteren Verbindungselemente an dem Kartuschenbehälter 2 gezeigt. Diese bestehen aus jeweils einem an der Seitenwand der Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 angeformten, zur Seite abgewinkelten Verbindungszapfen 18 und einer davon seitlich beabstandeten Aufnahme 19 mit einer an die Form des Verbindungszapfens 18 angepassten Aufnahmeöffnung 20. Auch hier sind an dem anderen Kartuschenbehälter 1 entsprechende Verbindungselemente angebracht, so dass die beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 im hinteren Bereich einfach axial zusammengesteckt werden können.FIG. 5 shows the lower connecting elements on the cartridge container 2. These consist of a respective integrally formed on the side wall of the cartridge container 1 and 2, to the side angled connecting pin 18 and a laterally spaced apart recording 19th with an adapted to the shape of the connecting pin 18 receiving opening 20. Here are also attached to the other cartridge container 1 corresponding connecting elements, so that the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 can be easily assembled axially in the rear area.

Zum Zusammenbau der vorstehend beschriebenen Mehrkomponentenkartusche werden die beiden Kartuschenbehälter 1 und 2 mit ihren Verbindungselementen an ihren hinteren Enden zunächst in Axialrichtung ineinander geschoben. Anschließend wird der T-förmige Ansatz 12 durch eine Schwenkbewegung einer der Kartuschenbehälter in die zugehörige T-förmige Nut 13 eingeführt. Dabei gelangen auch die Rastverzahnungen 15 in Eingriff und sorgen für eine sichere Halterung.To assemble the multicomponent cartridge described above, the two cartridge containers 1 and 2 are initially pushed into one another with their connecting elements at their rear ends in the axial direction. Subsequently, the T-shaped projection 12 is inserted by a pivoting movement of one of the cartridge container in the associated T-shaped groove 13. In this case, the locking teeth 15 engage and ensure a secure mounting.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf das vorstehend beschriebene und in der Zeichnung dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt. So können die Rastverzahnungen oder eine andere geeignete Rasteinrichtung nicht nur im Bereich der oberen Verbindungselemente, sondern auch im Bereich der unteren Verbindungselemente oder auch an den oberen und unteren Verbindungselementen angeordnet sein.The invention is not limited to the embodiment described above and shown in the drawing. Thus, the locking teeth or other suitable locking device can be arranged not only in the region of the upper connecting elements, but also in the region of the lower connecting elements or on the upper and lower connecting elements.
