Dispenser with applicator tip
A dispenser (1) for liquids includes a reservoir (100) defining a volume (V100) for housing a liquid (150); a delivery tube (200) with a first end (201) attached to the reservoir, and a second end (202) distal from the reservoir, the delivery tube including a passage (203) in fluid communication with the volume of the reservoir and extending away from the reservoir; an applicator element (300) including an applicator tip (320) and a base (310) attached to the second end of the delivery tube, the applicator tip having a plurality of fingers (322) extending away from the base to a distal end of the applicator element distal from the delivery tube; and a removable seal (340), wherein removal of the removable seal creates an opening in the passage at a location upstream of the applicator tip and a fluid distribution channel between the fingers.
AN ADHESIVE DEPOSITION TOOL FOR APPLYING STRUCTURAL ADHESIVE TO A WIND TURBINE BLADE COMPONENT
This invention relates to an adhesive deposition tool for applying a bead of structural adhesive onto an application surface of a wind turbine blade component. The tool comprises a top portion defining an upper boundary of an open-ended chamber, two side portions defining side boundaries of the chamber and a supply channel for supplying adhesive to the chamber. The chamber comprises a front end and a rear end, the rear end being the end from which adhesive is deposited onto the surface when the tool is moved along the surface, wherein the top portion and/or at least one side portion is configured such that the height and/or the width of the chamber decreases towards the front end of the chamber.
Material dispense tips and methods for manufacturing the same
A material dispense tip includes an elongated hole in an elongated neck that extends from an input end of the neck to an output end of the neck. The hole at the output end of the neck has a first diameter. The output end of the neck is positioned against a die surface. A punch is inserted into the hole at the input end of the neck. An external force is applied to the neck to cause the output end of the neck to be deformed under compression by the die surface, to reduce the diameter of the hole at the output end of the neck from the first diameter to a second diameter that is less than the first diameter.
Collapsible tubing caulking gun
The collapsible tubing caulking gun comprises a handle, a trigger, a squeegee, a tube grip, and a nozzle support. The collapsible tubing caulking gun may dispense caulk from a collapsible tube. Activation of the trigger may force the collapsible tube rearwards through the squeegee resulting in the caulk being forced out of the collapsible tube via a nozzle. The collapsible tube may be retained between the tube grip which retains a sealed end of the collapsible tube and the nozzle support which retains the nozzle of the collapsible tube.
ADHESIVE TAPE HAVING PERFORATIONS FOR APPLYING TO A RIBBON BEAD NOZZLE
An adhesive tape is arranged to be applied over the outlet opening of a nozzle otherwise arranged for dispensing a viscous material as a continuous ribbon bead onto a work surface. The adhesive tape is perforated with a plurality of perforations. By applying the inventive adhesive tape over the outlet opening of the nozzle, the viscous material may be dispensed through the plurality of perforations to form a plurality of continuous filaments on the work surface, rather than a continuous ribbon bead, resulting in waste reduction and greater control over the amount dispensed. Such viscous materials may include construction adhesives, caulking materials, sealants, dual component reactive resins, and the like. The work surface may be the base of a wall to which a length of flexible molding is to be attached by an adhesive.
Applicator with Interchangeable Heads
An applicator for dispensing a viscous material from a container. The applicator comprises a nozzle for fluid communication with the container. The nozzle has an outlet at a first end and base in proximity to an opposed second end. The nozzle further includes a support arm spaced apart from the nozzle. The support arm and the nozzle collectively forming a slot therebetween for releasably receiving a blade. An attachment portion extend from the base and is configured to releasably engage the container to permit material within the container to flow under pressure through the nozzle and onto a surface. When the blade is received within the slot, it contacts the material as it exits the nozzle and assists in forming the material into a desired shape or configuration.
VISCOUS MATERIAL APPLICATION APPARATUS
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a viscous material application apparatus capable of reliably applying an appropriate amount of a viscous material to a shaft-shaped member. A seal application apparatus (1) is provided with a flexible tubular nozzle (2), which is capable of discharging a sealing agent from an opening (6) formed on the tip thereof, and an actuator (3) for moving the nozzle (2). After or during discharge of the sealing agent by the nozzle (2), the tip of the nozzle (2) moves in the circumferential direction along the outer circumferential surface of a fastener (20), and as the nozzle (2) is stopping the discharge of the sealing agent, the tip of the nozzle (2) moves in a direction away from the outer circumferential surface of the fastener (20).
SPREADING UNIT
The disclosure relates to a spreading unit having a shaper for spreading viscous material, in particular sealing material, on a component, wherein the shaper has a first shaping contour for shaping the viscous material in the process of the spreading, wherein at least a second shaping contour of the shaper for shaping the viscous material can be brought by means of an actuator, in a direction of spreading, into superimposition with the first shaping contour, so that a shape of the shaper is adjustable during an application process.
Composition Applicator Tip and Instrumentation
A composition applicator tip adapted to deliver a “rippled” bead of composition to a surface of a substrate, the composition applicator tip including: a hollow conduit structure defining a pair of opposed openings and adapted to deliver the composition there through, wherein a first opening of the pair of opposed openings is adapted to be coupled to a composition delivery vessel; and an end wall enclosing a second opening of the pair of opposed openings, wherein the end wall defines an elongate slot that is adapted to be disposed substantially parallel to the surface of the substrate in use and expel the composition there through, and wherein a portion of the end wall disposed beneath the elongate slot has a height such that the composition falls by gravity a predetermined distance to the surface of the substrate in use as the composition applicator tip is translated along the surface of the substrate.
Application device
A sealing agent (25) sent from a nozzle tube (36) to a nozzle main body (37) is passed through a main body flow channel portion (37a), a connecting portion (37c), a first flow channel portion (37b), and plural second flow channel portions (37d), sent to a chamber (37e), and discharged from a nozzle port (37f) to the outside. Since the second flow channel portions (37d) are smaller than a downstream end of the first flow channel portion (37b), the sealing agent (25) in the first flow channel portion (37b) is vigorously sent to the chamber (37e), and discharged from the nozzle port (37f) to the outside. As a result, substantially the same quantity of the sealing agent (25) is discharged in the entire range of the chamber (37e).
