  • Patent number: 10821469
    Abstract: A two-component dispenser includes first and second push rods guided within the two-component dispenser, first and second drive plate assemblies respectively associated with and embodied for engaging with the first and second push rods, and an actuation mechanism symmetrically arranged with respect to the first and second push rods and with respect to the first and second drive plate assemblies. The actuation mechanism displaceable in a linear manner between a release position and a plurality of dispensing positions and engaging the first and second drive plate assemblies in the dispensing positions to lock the first and second push rods by engagement with the first and second drive plate assemblies and to entrain the first and second push rods in a dispensing direction of the two-component dispenser.

  • Patent number: 9452443
    Abstract: A motorized viscous material dispenser, especially a caulking gun, comprises a motor (27), an operation parameter sensor (51), a data processing device (35), a memory device (37), and at least one operator activated switch (7, 10). The dispenser has a first dispensing mode in which the data processing device (53) records operation parameter values read by the operation parameter sensor (51), when a switch (7) is activated by an operator, and stores at least one operation parameter value in the memory device (37), the motor (27) being activated in accordance with the activation of said switch (7), and a second dispensing mode in which the data processing device (35) activates the motor (27) in accordance with the operation parameter values stored in the memory device (37) when a switch (7) is activated by an operator.

  • Patent number: 9358572
    Abstract: A motorized viscous material dispenser (1), especially a caulking gun, comprises a drive unit (11) with a cylindrical pinion gear, a holder (15) attachable to a front side of the drive unit (11) for receiving at least one container containing viscous material, at least one piston (19), and at least one rack (17) meshing with the cylindrical pinion gear to drive said piston (19). A rear piece (51) attachable to a rear side of the drive unit (11) opposite the front side and a guide piece (45) attachable to the front side of the drive unit (11) comprises guiding apertures (55) through which the rack (17) is extending, whereby the guiding apertures (55) determine the position of the rack (17) relative to the cylindrical pinion gear, when the motorized viscous material dispenser (1) is assembled.
