Provided are a gravure coating device for preparing a large-width ultrathin metal lithium strip and the preparation method, relating to the technical field of preparation of metal lithium materials. The device comprises: a lithium-melting tank (17), a micro-gravure roller (5), a unwinding device, a substrate back roller (7), a hot pressing device and a winding device; wherein the lower portion of the micro-gravure roller (5) is immersed into the liquid lithium in the lithium-melting tank (17); one side of the micro-gravure roller (5) is provided with a hot scraper (6), and the end portion of the hot scraper (6) is in contact with the surface of the micro-gravure roller (5); the substrate back roller (7) is arranged diagonally above the micro-gravure roller (5); the unwinding device is arranged on one side of the substrate back roller (7); the winding device is arranged above the substrate back roller (7); the hot pressing device is arranged between the substrate back roller (7) and the winding device; after passing through the substrate back roller (7) and the hot pressing device, the substrate on the unwinding device is winded onto the winding device. The device is simple in structure and reasonable in design, effectively improves the coating uniformity, and realizes automatic production of ultrathin metal lithium strips with a thickness of 1-50 μm, thereby greatly improving work efficiency and product quality.

A paint applicator, kit and methodology for using the same is disclosed. For example, a paint applicator that allows a user to load a desired amount of paint, such as a water based or other low VOC paint, into the paint applicator and an advancement mechanism that dispenses paint at a rate controllable by the user is disclosed. The advancement mechanism can include a system that translates a rotational force applied to an end cap of the applicator into a linear force that advances a piston which in turn applies paint to an applicator portion. The paint applicator may be reusable or may include a ratchet system that allows for only one time use. The methodology and kit can incorporate a syringe for loading paint into the paint applicator, thus reducing the loss of paint through spilling.

A lubricant/sealer dispenser is disclosed for a component press-in system that includes a pressurized lubricant/sealer reservoir filled with lubricant/sealer. A nozzle is supplied with lubricant/sealer from the reservoir and includes an offset tip formed of PTFE that is enclosed in a steel tube. A controller controls a motor that rotates the nozzle within an opening in a part at a selected depth. The motor rotates the nozzle about a fixed axis and follows an inner surface of the opening as the part is moved by a robot relative to the nozzle in a selected pattern. The nozzle applies the lubricant/sealer by applying the lubricant/sealer onto the inner surface of the opening.
