The device has a cartridge comprising an interior, that is closed on one side by a movable delivery plunger, a receptacle comprising side walls for receiving a monomer liquid container that are closed at least in some region
A device mixes bone cement and stores parent components of the bone cement. The device has a cartridge comprising an interior, that is closed on one side by a movable delivery plunger, a receptacle comprising side walls for receiving a monomer liquid container that are closed at least in some regions. The receptacle has at least one deformable closed side wall, a screen and/or a filter arranged below the receptacle so that the contents of the opened monomer liquid container flow through the screen and/or the filter. The device further has a connecting line through which the monomer liquid is to be routed into the interior of the cartridge, a hollow cylinder which is connected to the connecting line and which is connected to the receptacle by way of a fluid connection so that the hollow cylinder is arranged in a fluid line between the receptacle and the interior of the cartridge. A pump plunger is arranged in the hollow cylinder, which is axially displaceable in the hollow cylinder, and an opening device, which is movably mounted against the deformable side wall of the receptacle. The opening device extends into the hollow cylinder, wherein, by pressing the pump plunger into the hollow cylinder, the opening device is to be pressed against the deformable side wall of the receptacle so that the deformable side wall deforms such that a monomer liquid container located in the receptacle is to be opened by the pressure of the opening device.

The device according to claim 5, wherein at least one selected from: the device has a stand in which at least part of the connecting line is arranged, wherein the cartridge is releasably connected to the stand by way of a screw thread; andthe powder filter that is impermeable to the cement powder and permeable to the monomer liquid is optionally arranged in the connection between the cartridge and the stand. 7. The device according to claim 1, wherein the receptacle leads into the hollow cylinder at a circumferential surface of the hollow cylinder. 8. The device according to claim 1, wherein the connecting line is connected to the hollow cylinder at the lowest point of the hollow cylinder, wherein the pump plunger is arranged on the opposite side of the hollow cylinder. 9. The device according to claim 1, wherein the hollow cylinder has, on the side opposite the pump plunger, a conical, semi-conical or otherwise downwardly tapering base, wherein the face of the pump plunger, which faces the base of the hollow cylinder, forms a negative shape of the base form-fitting the shape of the base. 10. The device according to claim 1, wherein the device has a tensioned pressure spring and at least one detent, wherein the pressure spring and/or the pump plunger is or are releasably arrested by the detent, wherein the pressure spring exerts a pressure on the pump plunger, when the detent is released so that the pump plunger is pressed into the hollow cylinder. 11. The device according to claim 1, wherein the connecting line between the hollow cylinder and the interior of the cartridge has an upwardly pointing loop, wherein the highest point of the loop is located above a mouth of the receptacle leading into the hollow cylinder. 12. The device according to claim 1, wherein the volume in the hollow cylinder is smaller than or equal to the volume of the monomer liquid in the monomer liquid container. 13. The device according to claim 1, wherein the opening device is a lever which is mounted against the receptacle to be rotatable about an axis, wherein a free end of the lever is pressable against the deformable side wall of the receptacle by the pump plunger, so that the free end of the lever deforms the deformable side wall in such a way that the monomer liquid container located in the receptacle and matching the receptacle is to be opened by the pressure of the free end of the lever, is to be broken open or split open or punctured. 14. The device according to claim 13, wherein the free end, with the lever, is arranged inside the hollow cylinder, and abuts against the deformable side wall, in such a way that the lever, starting from the axis with the free end and the deformable side wall, forms a triangle with a web as a leg opposite the corner formed by the axis of rotation, wherein the triangle is arranged in the hollow cylinder. 15.
