Zusammenfassung:An adapter for connecting a separated-outlet fluid cartridge to a single-inlet static mixer includes a lock mechanism and a lock release mechanism. The adapter includes a connection portion that engages the mixer. The lock mechanism has at least one snap arm that lockingly engages the cartridge in a snap fit manner so as to secure the adapter to the cartridge in fluid communication. When in the locked position, separate fluids are evacuated from the cartridge into the mixer where they are mixed prior to dispensing. The lock release mechanism quickly and easily unlocks the at least one snap arm from the cartridge for allowing a user to separate the adapter from the cartridge. The adapter sealing engages with both the mixer and the cartridge so that fluid flowing from the cartridge to the mixer does not leak.
