Abstract
A two part adhesive packaging system is provided. The packaging system includes two containers for holding a two-part adhesive. The packaging system further includes a connector having two ports for communicating with the containers. A membrane is adhered overtop the ports to prevent the two-part adhesive from draining from the containers. The membrane is configured to break upon application of a sufficient force thereon, such as by pumping or pushing the two-part adhesive from the containers.
Claims20
A package system comprising:
- a first container that defines a first space;
- a second container that defines a second space, the second container connected to the first container;
- a connector connected to an outer surface of the first container and an outer surface of the second container, wherein the connector has an outer surface, a side surface, and a connection feature disposed on the side surface;
- a first port disposed in the outer surface of the connector and in communication with the first space;
- a second port disposed in the outer surface of the connector and in communication with the second space;
- and
- a membrane adhered to the outer surface of the connector, wherein the membrane covers the first port and the second port.
A package system comprising:
- a first container that defines a first space;
- a second container that defines a second space, the second container connected to the first container;
- a connector connected to a outer surface of the first container and an outer surface of the second container, wherein the connector has a planar outer surface, a side surface, and a connection feature disposed on the side surface;
- a first port disposed in the planar outer surface of the connector and in communication with the first space;
- a second port disposed in the planar outer surface of the connector and in communication with the second space;
- and
- a membrane adhered to the outer surface of the connector, wherein the membrane covers the first port and the second port.
A package system comprising:
- a first container that defines a first space;
- a second container that defines a second space, the second container connected to the first container;
- a connector connected to an outer surface of the first container and an outer surface of the second container, wherein the connector has an outer surface, a peripheral flange disposed along an outer circumference of the outer surface of the connector and a linear flange disposed radially on the outer surface of the connector;
- a first port disposed in the outer surface of the connector and in communication with the first space;
- a second port disposed in the outer surface of the connector and in communication with the second space, wherein the second port is located on an opposite side of the linear flange than the first port;
- and
- a membrane adhered to the peripheral flange and the linear flange of the connector, wherein the membrane covers the first port and the second port.
