Abstract

The invention relates, among other things, to a device for storing and dispensing viscous substances, which are to be mixed from at least two components for use, having a film-like carrier, for example, in which at least three or four depressions are formed, for example arranged next to one another in a row, which are open towards the top, at first, so that one of the components, in each instance, can be introduced from the top into one of two center depressions, in each instance, i.e. depressions that are adjacent and are arranged at essentially the same distance from a bending line, and afterwards, the two center depressions can be sealed with a cover film, towards the outside, forming a chamber, in each instance, in such a manner that between each center chamber and at least one adjacent outer depression, a connection channel that opens towards at least one outer depression when pressure is applied to the center chamber, in each instance, by way of a planned breakage point, remains.
