Abstract
A device for storing and dispensing fluid substances has at least one container for accommodating fluid substances, at least one outlet tap that is provided on the face of the container, a dispensing element that can be connected with the outlet tap, and a locking element for releasably locking the dispensing element on the outlet tap(s). A guide is provided on the container, in which the locking element is guided in such a manner that it can be transferred, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the container, from a first open position in which the dispensing element is released, into a second locking position, in which it surrounds the dispensing element at least in part, to fix it in place on the at least one outlet tap.
Claims11
A device for storing and dispensing fluid substances, comprising:
- at least one container for accommodating fluid substances;
- at least one outlet tap disposed on a face of the container;
- a dispensing element adapted to be connected with the outlet tap;
- a guide disposed on the container;
- and
- a locking element for releasably locking the dispensing element on the outlet tap, said locking element being guided in the guide so that the locking element moves, perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the container, from a first open position in which the dispensing element is released, into a second locking position, in which the locking element surrounds the dispensing element at least in part, to fix the dispensing element in place on the at least one outlet tap, the locking element being guided in the guide both in the first open position and in the second locking position,
- wherein the container is a double cartridge having two cylinders connected with one another by at least one crosspiece, and wherein there are two outlet taps, and wherein the dispensing element is a mixer, which has two inlet taps that are complementary to the outlet taps, at least in certain regions, and has a flange-like edge located on a side of the mixer having the inlet taps, with which edge the locking elements are brought into engagement.
