The present invention, in some embodiments thereof, relates to a spreader for spreading paste (for example a tile adhesive) over a surface and more particularly, but not exclusively, to a system for pumping and uneven spreading of adhesive along a surface of a building. For example, the system may include a source of the paste optionally including a mixer, driver and/or conveyer. The paste may be driven to a spreader. For example, the spreader may deposit the paste unevenly over a surface. For example, the spreader may include multiple outlets and/or an uneven spreading blade (for example in the form of a comb). For example, the paste may be spread as lines across the surface.

A sealant applying device for applying a sealant along a joint line formed on a panel joint, may include a nozzle device including a nozzle tip mounted through a fixing block to apply the sealant to the joint line, a guide unit mounted on one side of the fixing block adjacent to the nozzle tip and configured to be slidably movable along the joint line to guide the nozzle tip and a floating unit connected to the fixing block and a robot and allowing the fixing block to move upwards and downwards.

An apparatus (10) for use in dispensing adhesive (18) is provided that has a mix applicator (12) that has a receiving portion (16) and a mix applicator bore (14) through which adhesive can flow. A mix head (20) is present that has a mix head bore (26) that extends through the mix head. The mix applicator is receivable within the mix head such that the receiving portion is located within the mix head. Adhesive can be dispensed in a ribbon shape from the mix head bore at a distal tip of the mix head. A lock member is configured for extending through at least a portion of the mix head, and engages the mix applicator when the receiving portion is located within the mix head in order to retain the mix head onto the mix applicator.

Applicators for glue and other squeeze bottles are described. The applicator may include an arm that compresses the squeeze bottle, and a chamber with ribs that also compresses the bottle.

A dispensing head for a supply tube that enables material to be evenly applied adjacent to the peripheral edge of a thin structure, such as a vehicle door. The dispensing head has a first end with a first opening and a second end with a discharge opening. A guide extends from the second end. The guide includes a descending element and a lateral foot element, wherein the bottom surface of the second end, the descending element, and the lateral foot element define three sides of an open gap space. The dispensing head is attached to a supply tube. The thin structure is positioned within the guide. The hook shaped guide positions the discharge opening a set distance from the application surface on the thin structure. The guide is moved along the peripheral edge where the material can be dispensed evenly at a set distance from the peripheral edge.

Provided is a bandage composition dispenser and/or applicator that includes a nozzle and a cap. In some embodiments, the dispenser and/or applicator is used to dispense a bandage or dressing composition that forms a durable film bandage or skin protectant.

A nozzle applies a sealant to a target area that includes a coupling member and an elongated seam. The nozzle includes a primary portion positionable in line with the coupling member in the target area, a first secondary portion on a first side of the primary portion, and a second secondary portion on a second side of the primary portion. The primary portion is in fluid communication with one or more material sources. The first secondary portion extends from the primary portion such that the first secondary portion is configured to extend over at least a segment of the elongated seam in the target area when the primary portion is positioned in line with the coupling member in the target area. The first secondary portion has a first height, and the second secondary portion has a second height less than the first height.

A method of coating a fastener assembly that extends from a substrate comprises steps of at least partially saturating a permeable body with a volume of a liquid and covering the fastener assembly with the permeable body. The step of covering the fastener assembly with the permeable body comprises at least partially compressing the permeable body against the fastener assembly and transferring a portion of the volume of the liquid from the permeable body to an exposed outer surface of the fastener assembly and to a ring on the substrate, surrounding the fastener assembly.

A dispense tip constructed and arranged to communicate with a material dispensing pump comprises an elongated neck and a molded base having a first portion and a second portion opposite the first portion. The neck extends from the first portion of the base. The second portion is constructed and arranged to abut an outlet surface of the pump. An outermost region of the second portion of the base includes a compressible fluid-tight surface that compliantly conforms to the outlet surface when the dispense tip is mounted to the pump.

A manifold that allows for increased flow performance, at a reduced pressure, and a flow path that is easily maintained, and fluid dispensing systems that allow for the precise, controlled spacing of beads of multiple component adhesives, and other liquids, and allow for multiple beads to be dispensed onto a substrate simultaneously are disclosed. A control portion for a manifold that solves the disadvantages relating to scaling an open channel and a carrier that provides a mechanism for applying an adhesive and/or a two-part adhesive easier are disclosed.
