Abstract
A multi-component fluid mixing device for mixing two or more fluids which can be used with an applicator tool, such as a spray gun. The mixing device is used with a removable cartridge that is pressure fitted into the body of the mixing device using an actuation mechanism that elevates a cartridge engagement base to create a fluid-tight seal.
Claims20
A multi-component fluid mixing device comprising:
- a device body comprising at least two fluid supply adapters for receiving fluid input and a mixed fluid output conduit;
- an engagement base comprising at least two fluid input conduits fluidly connected to the fluid supply adapters;
- an actuator connected to the engagement base, wherein actuation of the engagement base by the actuator moves the fluid input conduits on the engagement base toward the mixed fluid output conduit;
- an adapter adjacent the mixed fluid output conduit to attach the mixing device with an application device;
- and
- a mixing cartridge comprising a mixing chamber fluidly connecting the at least two fluid supply adapters and the mixed fluid output conduit.

A multi-component fluid mixing system comprising:
- a mixing device comprising:
- a device body comprising at least two fluid supply adapters for receiving fluid input and a mixed fluid output conduit;
- an engagement base comprising at least two fluid input conduits fluidly connected to the fluid supply adapters;
- an actuator connected to the engagement base, wherein actuation of the engagement base by the actuator moves the fluid input conduits on the engagement base toward the mixed fluid output conduit;
- and
- an adapter adjacent the mixed fluid output conduit to attach the mixing device with an application device;
- and
- a mixing cartridge comprising a mixing chamber, the mixing chamber having an input end with at least two fluid input ports for fluid engagement with the at least two fluid supply conduits of the device body and an output end having one mixed fluid output port for fluid engagement with the mixed fluid output conduit of the device body.
5 more elements
A multi-component fluid mixing system comprising:
- a mixing cartridge comprising a cartridge base comprising at least two fluid inputs, a mixed fluid output connected to a mixed fluid output conduit, and a mixing chamber therebetween fluidly connecting the at least two fluid inputs and the mixed fluid output conduit;
- a device body comprising a fluid input end comprising an engagement base for engagement with the cartridge base and a mixed fluid output end;
- an actuator connected to the engagement base, wherein actuation of the actuator moves the engagement base of the device body toward the mixed fluid output end of the device body to create a pressure-fit sealing connection between the fluid input end of the device body and the cartridge base and between the mixed fluid output end of the device body and the mixed fluid output of the mixing cartridge.
