  • Patent number: 8006870
    Abstract: A discharger for a flowable medium, having a pumping device with a pumping chamber which is closed off on one side by a longitudinally movable piston, is provided. The pumping chamber on the piston side is hermetically sealed against an environmental atmosphere outside the discharger by a gas-impermeable and at least partially flexible diaphragm, and the diaphragm, in its marginal region, is fixedly connected to a housing of the discharger. The discharger is used for high sealing requirements against the ingress of impurities.

  • Patent number: 6679248
    Abstract: The invention relates to a discharge apparatus for media. In the case of such discharge apparatuses the medium to be discharged is stored in a container, which has chambers separated from one another. Into each of the chambers is introduced at least one media component and the media components together form the medium to be discharged. The container is placed in a casing having a discharge opening for discharging the medium. An actuating means movable relative to the casing is provided. Through the actuation of the actuating means firstly a connection between the chambers of the container is produced.
