Abstract
An apparatus for providing a liquid component as a first starting component of a bone cement dough from two starting components, comprising a receptacle in which a tank containing the liquid component can be stored, an opening means for opening the tank, a reservoir, fluidically connected to the receptacle, for receiving the liquid component from the tank, at least one port for fluidically connecting the apparatus to a syringe in which a powder component can be stored as a second starting component of the bone cement dough, and at least one conducting means which fluidically connects the reservoir and the at least one port to one another.
Claims14
An apparatus for providing a liquid component as a first starting component of a bone cement dough from two starting components, comprising
- a receptacle in which a tank containing the liquid component can be stored,
- an opening means for opening the tank,
- a reservoir, fluidically connected to the receptacle, for receiving the liquid component from the tank,
- at least one port for fluidically connecting the apparatus to a syringe in which a powder component can be stored as a second starting component of the bone cement dough, and
- at least one conducting means fluidically connecting the reservoir and the at least one port to one another;
- wherein the at least one port comprises a plurality of ports for fluidically connecting the apparatus to a syringe in which a powder component can be stored as the second starting component of the bone cement dough, and the at least one conducting means comprises a plurality of conducting means, wherein one of the conducting means of the plurality of conducting means in each case fluidically connects the reservoir and one of the ports of the plurality of ports to one another;
- wherein the reservoir is divided into a plurality of compartments, and wherein one of the compartments is in each case fluidically connected to one of the ports via one of the conducting means;
- and
- wherein the reservoir is divided into the compartments by means of at least one partition wall.
A system for providing a bone cement dough from two starting components comprising an apparatus for providing a liquid component as a first starting component for a bone cement dough from two starting components, comprising
- a receptacle in which a tank containing the liquid component can be stored,
- an opening means for opening the tank,
- a reservoir, fluidically connected to the receptacle, for receiving the liquid component from the tank,
- at least one port for fluidically connecting the apparatus to a syringe in which a powder component can be stored as a second starting component of the bone cement dough, and
- at least one conducting means fluidically connecting the reservoir and the at least one port to one another, wherein the tank containing a liquid component as the first starting component is stored in the reputable, and comprising a plurality of syringes, each comprising a power component as the second starting component, wherein the reservoir is divided into a plurality of compartments, and wherein such an amount of liquid component is stored in the tank that, after the tank has been opened, all compartments of the reservoir can be filled with the liquid component and in this case have a fill level that projects at least in sections above a height of the at least one partition wall separating the compartments.
