STORAGE AND MIXING DEVICE FOR BONE CEMENT Abstract A storage and mixing device for storage and mixing of a liquid and a solid component, in particular a device for mixing and storing a monomer liquid and a powder for producing bone cement, contains two chambers of which the first chamber contains the solid component and is separated from a second chamber that contains the liquid component by means of a separation (203) that can be opened. A mixing facility (102) that can be driven by means of a pressure difference is arranged in the first chamber. A vacuum is used to mix a monomer liquid and a bone cement powder in a vacuum and to operate a mixing facility simultaneously. The vacuum can also be used to open a separation between monomer liquid and mixing space and to transfer the monomer liquid into the mixing space.
