Claims
- 1. A cartridge body for receiving and dispensing a paste-like material with a lateral deflection, said cartridge body comprising:a cylindrical portion (24, 34) having a central longitudinal axis (23); and a front end portion consisting of two walls (22, 32) converging at a tip (30), which walls do not project laterally past the circumference of the cylindrical portion, one (22) of said two walls defining an outlet wall, the outlet wall (22) having an outlet opening (20) for dispensing the paste-like material, said outlet opening (20) having a width (48) measured in a direction perpendicular to said longitudinal center axis (23), and an axial length (49) measured in a direction of said longitudinal center axis (23), the width (48) of said outlet opening (20) being of greater length than the length (49) of said outlet opening 20), wherein said second converging wall serves as a deflection wall for deflecting the paste-like material into the outlet opening, and wherein said deflection wall curves radially inwardly past said longitudinal center axis.
- 2. A cartridge dispensing a paste-like material with a lateral deflection, said cartridge comprising:a cartridge body (12) provided with a cylindrical portion (24, 34) having a central longitudinal axis (23), and a front end portion consisting of a deflection wall (32) and an outlet wall (22) converging at a tip (30), which walls do not project laterally past the circumference of the cylindrical portion, the outlet wall (22) having an outlet opening (20) for dispensing a paste-like material, said outlet opening (20) having a width (48) measured in a direction perpendicular to said longitudinal center axis (23), and an axial length (49) measured in a direction of said longitudinal center axis (23), the width (48) of said outlet opening (20) being of greater length than the length (49) of said outlet opening 20); a paste-like material (40) disposed within said cartridge body (12); and a plunger (42, 44) slidably guided in said cartridge body (12), which plunger may be moved towards the tip for dispensing the paste-like material, said deflection wall serving as a stop for said plunger.
- 3. A cartridge according to claim 2, wherein said plunger has a deformable displacement member and wherein said plunger is mounted in said cartridge body such that said deform able displacement member faces said outlet opening.
