Abstract: A filling device includes a first component and a second component. The first component includes a dosing cylinder having a high-viscosity material arranged therein. The second component includes a workpiece carrier and a receiving carrier. The receiving carrier is moveably connected to the workpiece carrier. The movement v of the receiving carrier during the filling process is determined by both the dynamic pressure exerted by the material and by a counterforce G generated by a unit having a pressurized fluid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dispensing container for a dental compound. The dispensing container comprises a chamber (15), a discharge tip (16) and a channel (17), which extends from the chamber (15) as far as a channel opening (18) arranged at the front end of the discharge tip (16). The discharge tip (16) has a jacket surface (23) tapering towards the front end. A cap (20) is provided which has an inner surface adapted to the jacket surface (23) of the discharge tip (16). According to the invention, the inner surface of the cap (20) has a plurality of guide webs (24). The invention also relates to a cap for a dispensing container of this kind. The dispensing container according to the invention reduces the likelihood of the dental compound being contaminated by particles.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filling device (1) comprising a first component (2) and a second component (3). The first component (2) comprises a dosing cylinder (20) having a high-viscosity material (4) arranged therein. The second component (3) comprises a workpiece carrier (30) and a receiving carrier (31). The receiving carrier (31) is moveably connected to the workpiece carrier (30). The movement v of the receiving carrier (31) during the filling process is determined by both the dynamic pressure exerted by the composite (4) and by a counterforce G generated by a proportional pneumatic unit (35).

Abstract: A capsule for receiving and delivering high-viscosity dental materials has a housing which defines an interior chamber. The housing and the interior chamber have a first section, a transition area, and an exit nozzle. The interior chamber of the transition area tapers continuously towards its second end. The interior chamber of the transition area is defined by the outer surfaces of an oblique truncated cone with an opening angle of approximately 55°.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for joining two disks (12, 14) to give a disk-shaped data carrier. Said disks that are coated with an adhesive (16) and provided with a center opening (18) are made from a material that contains plastic as the essential component. The inventive device comprises two retainer elements (40, 42) having a planar surface as the supporting surface for the disks (12, 14). Suction ducts (78, 80) lead to the surface of the supporting surfaces and generate a negative pressure that retains the disks (12, 14) on the supporting surfaces. Every retainer (40, 42) is disposed within a chamber half (24, 26) defining when closed a joining chamber (21) with a cavity that can be evacuated. Every chamber half (24, 26) is provided with a centering pin (62, 64) penetrating the retainer elements (40, 42) for the purpose of centering the disks (12, 14).

Abstract: The invention relates to a pump (10) with a proportional-volumetrical dosing unit for conveying a predetermined volume of a liquid in a range of less than about 1 ml in a precisely dosed manner. The pump is provided with a cavity (22) for receiving the liquid and is limited on one side by a membrane (20) that can be displaced by means of a lifting device (18) to change the cavity's volume. The pump (10) further comprises a lockable inlet valve (30) between a liquid reservoir and the cavity (22), a lockable outlet valve (34) between the cavity (22) and a liquid dispenser and a lockable air vent valve (32) between the cavity (22) and the ambient atmosphere. The pump is especially useful for applying a precise, defined and reproducible volume of a lacquer or an adhesive on the surface of a disk-shaped data carrier for generating a thin lacquer or adhesive film.
