Patent number: 9982697Abstract: A fastening element for attaching to a wall. The fastening element having a contact element having an adhesive surface and a filling opening via which a flowable adhesive agent is capable of being brought between the adhesive surface and the wall. Positioning elements by which the contact element is capable of being positioned at the wall are arranged at the adhesive surface. The positioning element has a width which is variable in dependence on a spacing from the outlet opening. The width reduces at least sectionally as the spacing from the outlet opening increases and is minimal at a maximum spacing from the outlet opening. Accordingly, the adhesive surface is capable of flowing around the positioning element on the introduction between the wall and the adhesive surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2014Date of Patent: May 29, 2018Assignee: SULZER MIXPAC AGInventors: Victor Clemens, Sebastian Paus

Patent number: 9975139Abstract: A cartridge has a reception chamber extending in a longitudinal direction for a medium to be dispensed. The cartridge has a head part and a cartridge wall which bound the reception chamber, the head part having an outlet for the medium. The cartridge wall is at least regionally a film and the head part is a stable-shape part. The head part is sealingly and in particular unreleasably connected to the cartridge wall and the cartridge is a collapsible cartridge. The cartridge can be converted from an expanded state in which the reception chamber has a maximum volume into a collapsed state in which the reception chamber has a minimal volume. The cartridge not yet filled with medium is in a collapsed state. Furthermore, a method of manufacturing such a cartridge is described.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2015Date of Patent: May 22, 2018Assignee: SULZER MIXPAC AGInventors: Hayden Turner, Victor Clemens
