An embodiment of a line-of-sight coating fixture includes a support structure, a spindle, and a shadow structure. The support structure includes a plurality of compartments disposed below a platter, each compartment having an opening on a periphery of the support structure. Each compartment is adapted to receive and secure a base of a workpiece such that a body of each workpiece to be coated is disposed about a periphery of the support structure and extends above the platter. The spindle is disposed through a center of the platter or support structure for rotating the workpieces thereabout. The shadow structure is disposed about the spindle, inside of the periphery, the shadow structure sized and adapted to shield a portion of each workpiece from line-of-sight coating material.

Lightweight, battery-operated, walk-behind joint- and crack-filling equipment has no belts or chains to wear out, and no inverters or other electrical power-conversion apparatus. A single brushless battery-operated DC motor, directly coupled to two pumps, simultaneously delivers the resin and hardener to a wand, such that a single user can push the cart and apply the mixture. The portable cart includes a frame with a handle and single set of right and left wheels accommodates two containers holding the hardening components. The containers may be pails or buckets or bag-in-box containers that may be compressed and collapsed after use to reduce waste requirements. The boxes and/or bags may also be biodegradable for a more environmentally friendly solution.

Provided is an application tool that allows reduction of an amount of waste by using no masking sheets, and can easily form a coated portion such as an antislip protrusion with reduced variation in a short time period. The application tool includes a support plate and a plurality of application bodies disposed at the support plate so as to protrude with height positions of the tips aligned with each other. A tip recess is disposed at the tip portion of each of the plurality of the application bodies as a holding recess for holding coating liquid.

A product applicator assembly includes a handle, an applicator, and a product dispensing assembly. The product dispensing assembly is disposed at least in part within the handle and stores a liquid product within a product container. A puncturing device within the product dispensing assembly has a base and a puncture element extending from the base toward the product container. The puncturing device further includes a mating member extending from the base and secured to the product container. The puncture element facilitates rupturing the product container to release a portion of the liquid product into the applicator.

A mud pumping apparatus that can be removably coupled to a container the mud was originally provided in when first obtained by the user. The mud may be mastic, mortar, grout, joint compound, spackle, or the like. The apparatus may be sized to be used with various standard sized containers, and adjustably powered and controllable to be used with different types, consistencies, and viscosities of spreadable material.

The invention relates to a tool (1) for applying liquid agent such as, for example, an insulating foam, an adhesive, or paint to the mantle surface of a circular-cylindrical object (10), comprising a tool head (2) having an axially through hole (3) with a substantially circular cross-section. The tool head (2) comprises an inner flange (8), an outer flange (16), a distribution chamber (12) running around the inner flange (8) and that comprises at least one outlet (13; 23; 33) distributed around the through hole (3). An asymmetrical restriction is arranged at the outlet (13) so that the outlet is restricted where the pressure is as highest (14). The invention also relates to a method for applying an agent around a circular-cylindrical object (10) with the tool (1).

A method and apparatus for applying sealant. The apparatus may comprise a shaping portion, a centering portion, and a support system. The shaping portion may have a cavity configured to receive a fastener system and receive a sealant. The centering portion may have a channel configured to position the shaping portion in a desired position around the fastener system when the fastener system is received in the cavity. The support system may be configured to maintain the desired position of the apparatus.

An adhesive applicator (1) comprises a receiver (3) having a tubular body with a closed first end (13) and an opposed second end (15), the tubular body having a deformable wall (11), an adhesive composition contained within the tubular body, and an applicator tip (5) mounted on the tubular body and comprising a foam material (7) having an applicator (7a-7c) external of the applicator (1) for applying said adhesive, the applicator being such that deformation of the tubular body causes the adhesive to be expressed through the applicator tip (5), The foam material is a reticulated foam felt (7) and allows for relatively constant flow of the adhesive through the foam felt and to the applicator surface thereof over a wide range of viscosity conditions of the adhesive and pressure applied to the deformable body of the applicator (1).

An airless pump container equipped with an impregnated member and an absorbing member includes: a container main body (10); a pushing plate (20); an impregnated member (30) installed inside of the container main body (10); a shielding member (40); a pump holder (60) coupled to the upper portion of the shielding member (40); an airless pump (50) installed on the inside of the shielding member (40) and the pump holder (60); an absorbing member holder (70) coupled to the upper end of the airless pump (50); an absorbing member (90); and a moving member (100) for fixing the absorbing member (90). The impregnated member is impregnated with content in a gel-state.

Pen-type hazardous material applicators are provided useful in applying metal pretreatment material to intricate geometries, such as blind holes, through holes, rivets, crevices, chamfers, counterbores, countersinks and other difficult to access surfaces are provided.
