Abstract:
An adhesive applying device includes a robot including a robot arm; a rotor set jig for setting thereat a rotor; a gun including a holder to which a cartridge containing the adhesive is mountable, the gun discharging the adhesive in the cartridge mounted to the holder and being mountable to an end of the robot arm; an electromagnetic valve that performs on/off switching control of supply of compressed air at a predetermined pressure into the cartridge mounted to the holder of the gun; a robot controller that controls an operation of the robot; and an upper-order controller that coordinates and controls the on/off switching control performed by the electromagnetic valve and the control of the operation of the robot performed by the robot controller.
Abstract:
A system and method for coating an endoprosthesis involves an applicator capable of delivering a coating substance to the endoprosthesis without spraying. The applicator may have a tube or die through which a coating substance is moved upwards by capillary action or by means of a pump so as to form an accumulation of the coating substance at an upper portion of the applicator. The endoprosthesis can be lowered onto the accumulation, then axially translated or rotated in order to transfer the coating substance to selected portions of the endoprosthesis. The applicator is lowered and/or the endoprosthesis is raised in order to form gaps in the coating. Selective coating of abluminal or luminal surface of the endoprosthesis may also be performed by allowing the surface to skip on a liquid surface of a pool of the coating substance.
Abstract:
A spreading device (10) includes an injector (14) and a spreading tube (16) connected with the injector. The injector contains therein a viscous thermal medium material for being spread on a surface of a cooling device for electronic components. The spreading tube defines therein at least one outlet hole (164) for release of the thermal medium material contained in the injector. The spreading device further includes means formed on the spreading tube for evenly distributing the material released through the outlet hole of the spreading tube over an entire area of the surface to be applied with the thermal medium material.

Abstract:
An active liquid applicator is provided which is designed to coat a surface of an electronic parts such as an oxygen sensor with an active liquid for forming an electrode. The liquid applicator includes a nozzle head and a nozzle tube. The nozzle tube has disposed therein a pearmable member which produces capillary attraction of an active liquid thereinto and feed it to the nozzle head, thereby enabling formation of a thin active film on the electronic part which has the thickness controllable with high accuracy.

Abstract:
A device for applying a protective coating to the weld or solder seam of a can body has an application roller (2) serving to apply a coating material inside a region covering the seam at the inside (15) of the can body. The roller periphery has a cross-sectional profile (5) comprising at least one depression (10) in a middle region (9) of a middle portion (6) having a region width of less than 60% of the width of the middle portion (6). The profile (5) further comprises at least one salient point and/or at least two points of inflection in this middle region (9). The device renders it possible to achieve optimum layer thicknesses of the coating over the seam, which are neither too little for the stresses occurring during the long-term storage of corrosive liquids nor too great for the tearing strength stressing of the coating which occurs during the flanging over of the edges of the can body. As a result of the form of the roller, an optimum profile of the coating layer applied results, with the greatest layer thickness immediately above the seam.
Abstract:
A device for coating the internal threads of a fastener includes a rotatable base for holding the fastener, and an applicator having a discharge orifice extending through its side wall which contacts the internal threads at a single point of tangency, the axis of the applicator being offset from the rotational axis of the base. Thus, an induced side load force is created at the point of tangency for effecting the pressing of discharged sealant into the roots of the threads. Differently sized internally threaded elements can be coated in accordance with the invention while using the same sealant applicator.
Abstract:
A dispensing head for applying adhesive to a contoured surface of one object which is to be bonded to a complimentary surface of another object is disclosed herein. This dispensing head includes two sections, one of which is provided for receiving adhesive from a supply thereof. The other section is provided for applying this adhesive to the contoured surface to be bonded and includes a complementary adhesive applying surface and a network of channels extending between the adhesive receiving section and the adhesive applying surface. While each of these channels is closed along its length during operation of the dispensing head, the section of the dispensing head defining these channels is divided into two disengagably connected subsections for providing ready access into and along the length of each channel.
