Abstract
A dispensing and dosing machine for dyestuffs includes pins having the same diameter as ducts wherein which the pins are located, the pins acting to both dispenses dyestuffs and clean the walls of the ducts.
Claims8
A dispensing and dosing machine for dyestuffs, comprising:
- plural dispensing devices;
- a dyestuffs discharge outlet;
- a dispensing head fitted with dispensing channels,
- the dispensing channels having an internal cylindrical surface, a first end connected to one of the dispensing devices and a second discharge end at a common volume in communication with the dyestuffs discharge outlet;
- a pin inserted in each of the dispensing channels, the pins sized to have an outside diameter equal to an inside diameter of the internal cylindrical surface of the corresponding dispensing channel;
- and
- a movement means for fitting each pin into a terminal portion of the corresponding dispensing channel so as to fully expel dyestuffs within the dispensing channel and clean the internal cylindrical surface of residual dyestuff.
4 more elements
A dispensing and dosing machine for dyestuffs, comprising:
- plural dispensing devices;
- a dyestuffs discharge outlet;
- a dispensing head located intermediate the dispensing devices and the dyestuffs discharge outlet;
- plural dispensing channels located within the dispensing head,
- each of the plural dispensing channels having an internal cylindrical surface and two cylindrical ends, a first cylindrical end being a discharge end in communication with the dyestuffs discharge outlet;
- a pin inserted into a second of the cylindrical ends and arranged to move within the internal cylindrical surface to discharge dyestuffs into the dyestuffs discharge outlet, the pin sized to have an outside diameter equal to an inside diameter of the internal cylindrical surface of the dispensing channel;
- a dispensing device channel within the dispensing head and configured to connect, at a first end, to one of the dispensing devices, and, at a second end, to a port within an associated dispensing channel, the port being penetrating the internal cylindrical surface intermediate the two cylindrical ends;
- and
- a pin movement means for moving each pin through an entire length of the internal cylindrical surface of the corresponding dispensing channel so as to fully expel dyestuffs from within the dispensing channel and to clean the entire length of the internal cylindrical surface of residual dyestuff.
6 more elements
A dispensing and dosing machine for dye-stuffs, comprising:
- a foundation;
- a discharging head located centrally on the foundation;
- and
- plural dispensing devices mounted on the foundation and arranged radially with respect to the discharging head,
- the discharging head including
- a dyestuffs discharge outlet,
- plural dispensing channels discharging to the dyestuffs discharge outlet,
- the dispensing channels having an internal cylindrical surface, a first end connected to one of the dispensing devices and a second discharge end at a common volume in communication with the dyestuffs discharge outlet,
- a pin inserted in each of the dispensing channels, the pins sized to have an outside diameter essentially equal to an inside diameter of the internal cylindrical surface of the corresponding dispensing channel;
- and
- a movement means for fitting each pin into a terminal portion of the corresponding dispensing channel so as to fully expel dyestuffs within the dispensing channel and to clean the internal cylindrical surface of residual dyestuff.
