Abstract
A manifold having a first side, a second side, a first channel extending from the first side to the second side, and a second channel extending from the first side to the second side is disclosed. The first channel and the second channel each define a linear longitudinal axis. In one embodiment, the first channel longitudinal axis and the second channel longitudinal axis are oblique to the first side and the second side of the manifold. The manifold of the present disclosure provides channels that can be easily cleaned and allow for an increased flow performance.
Claims14
An exit portion of a manifold configured for a first chemical substance and a second chemical substance to travel therethrough, the first chemical substance is a first part of a multiple component adhesive and the second chemical substance is a second part of the multiple component adhesive, the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance are configured to cure upon mixing to form a third homogeneous chemical substance, the exit portion comprising:
- a connection portion defining a connection portion longitudinal axis;
- a first channel extending through the connection portion, the first channel defining a first channel longitudinal axis;
- and
- a second channel extending through the connection portion, the second channel defining a second channel longitudinal axis,
- wherein the first channel within the connection portion is oblique to the connection portion longitudinal axis,
- wherein the second channel within the connection portion is oblique to the connection portion longitudinal axis, and
- wherein the connection portion comprises an external threaded connection portion configured to interlock with an internal threaded connection portion of a multiple component adhesive mixing tip.
An exit portion of a manifold configured for a first chemical substance and a second chemical substance to travel therethrough, the first chemical substance is a first part of a multiple component adhesive and the second chemical substance is a second part of the multiple component adhesive, the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance are configured to cure upon mixing to form a third homogeneous chemical substance, the exit portion comprising:
- a connection portion defining a connection portion longitudinal axis;
- a first channel extending through the connection portion, the first channel defining a first channel longitudinal axis;
- and
- a second channel extending through the connection portion, the second channel defining a second channel longitudinal axis,
- wherein the first channel longitudinal axis and the second channel longitudinal axis intersect at a point outside of the exit portion, and
- wherein the connection portion comprises an external threaded connection portion configured to interlock with an internal threaded connection portion of a multiple component adhesive mixing tip.
An exit portion of a manifold configured for a first chemical substance and a second chemical substance to travel therethrough, the first chemical substance is a first part of a multiple component adhesive and the second chemical substance is a second part of the multiple component adhesive, the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance are configured to cure upon mixing to form a third homogeneous chemical substance, the exit portion comprising:
- a connection portion defining a connection portion longitudinal axis;
- a first channel extending through the connection portion, the first channel defining a first channel longitudinal axis;
- and
- a second channel extending through the connection portion, the second channel defining a second channel longitudinal axis,
- wherein the first channel within the connection portion is oblique to the connection portion longitudinal axis,
- wherein the second channel within the connection portion is oblique to the connection portion longitudinal axis, and
- wherein the connection portion comprises an external threaded connection portion configured to interlock with an internal threaded connection portion of a multiple component adhesive mixing tip, wherein the interlock between the external threaded connection portion and the internal threaded connection portion of the multiple component adhesive mixing tip prevents axial movement between the exit portion of the manifold and the multiple component adhesive mixing tip.
An exit portion of a manifold configured for a first chemical substance and a second chemical substance to travel therethrough, the first chemical substance is a first part of a multiple component adhesive and the second chemical substance is a second part of the multiple component adhesive, the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance are configured to cure upon mixing to form a third homogeneous chemical substance, the exit portion comprising:
- a connection portion defining a connection portion longitudinal axis;
- a first channel extending through the connection portion, the first channel defining a first channel longitudinal axis;
- and
- a second channel extending through the connection portion, the second channel defining a second channel longitudinal axis,
- wherein the first channel within the connection portion is oblique to the connection portion longitudinal axis,
- wherein the second channel within the connection portion is oblique to the connection portion longitudinal axis, and
- wherein the connection portion is configured to interlock with a mixing tip connection portion of a multiple component adhesive mixing tip, wherein the interlock between the connection portion and the mixing tip connection portion of the multiple component adhesive mixing tip prevents axial movement between the exit portion of the manifold and the multiple component adhesive mixing tip.
