Abstract

The invention shows a filling transfer apparatus for bone cement with a cylindrical, upwardly open mixing container and a filling transfer piston which can be inserted therein, which is removably connected to the sleeve of a cement injector and which has an opening through which the mixed bone cement can be transferred into the sleeve through a pressing down of the filling transfer piston. In this an ejection piston is inserted in the sleeve and has an aperture in the region of the opening for the through-flowing cement which can be closed by a plug (9) after the removal of the cement injector.
