Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8909736A1] A twin-chambered container (10) for receiving two filling components (38; 56) for preparing a ready-to-use preparation, said components being maintained separate prior to removal from the container in two chambers (16; 18) accommodated one above the other in a housing and communicating via a passage (14). The passage is closed by a separating stopper (30) which can be inserted in one of the chambers by means of a sliding impact element to allow admixture of the filling components. The impact element is integral with the separating stopper (30) and is designed as an elongated, hollow applicator nozzle extending through the upper chamber (18) and into the open orifice (26) of the latter. The lower end of the cavity of the applicator nozzle passes through the separating stopper and opens into the lower chamber; the upper end of said cavity opens into an applicator nozzle. By screwing the impact element on to a twist cap (20) which tightly seals the upper chamber, the applicator nozzle can be unscrewed from the twist cap, the separating stopper (30) being withdrawn from the passage (14) at the same time.
