Claim Text:
1. A method of producing bone cement in a container having a first member that defines a first chamber, an opening device within the first chamber, and a second member movably coupled to the first member, the second member defining a second chamber and including a mixing device movably disposed within the first chamber, the method comprising: moving the second member of the container relative to the first member to move the mixing device in the first chamber; selectively opening an inlet passage of the second member by selectively piercing a sealing member that seals the second chamber with the opening device within the first chamber to allow a second ingredient in the second chamber to enter the first chamber through the inlet passage; mixing the second ingredient with a first ingredient in the first chamber by moving the mixing device in the first chamber; and after mixing, dispensing the bone cement through an outlet passage that is separate from the inlet passage.
