Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to pressure-sensitive adhesives and their application to desired surfaces, and more specifically to a handheld adhesive segment application apparatus.
  • thermoplastic adhesives have excellent adhering qualities; they can be softened by heating and firmed by cooling. These characteristics help thermoplastic adhesives produce waterproof, resilient, and long-lasting flexible bonds.
  • Thermoplastic adhesives have what is known as a "plastic memory,” meaning that each time a thermoplastic adhesive is heated, it can be molded into any desired form.
  • thermoplastic adhesives are routinely used and applied as small bond points to eliminate the use of mechanical fasteners, such as staples, screws, rivets, clips, snaps, nails, and stitching.
  • Thermoplastic adhesives are also extensively used in the packaging and manufacture of cartons, boxes and corrugated boards, bags, envelopes, disposable products (diapers and other paper products), cigarettes, labels, and stamps. In fact, today's demand for thermoplastic adhesives extends to very broad fields of use and is not limited to assembly line-like settings.
  • thermoplastic adhesive applicators are based on the industrial designs, and as such, they can be expensive to purchase, difficult to operate and heavy to transport for regular or routine use.
  • the adhesive segment applicator apparatus includes a carrier tape dispensing system comprising a supply wheel, a spent-tape take-up wheel and a roller are each rotatably mounted inside the housing of the adhesive segment applicator apparatus.
  • a roll of adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape is inserted onto the supply wheel and engages the:supply wheel in a secure fashion, permitting the roll of adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape to rotate when the supply wheel rotates.
  • the supply wheel includes a gear system or another mechanism for engaging the take-up wheel.
  • the roll of adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape and adhesive dispensing system (including the supply wheel and the take-up wheel) are substantially permanently enclosed within the housing of the adhesive segment applicator apparatus, rendering the applicator disposable.
  • the housing components are not separable once assembled so that once the adhesive on the roll of adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape is used, the roll is not replaceable.
  • the applicator housing and each of the components, including the supply wheel, take-up wheel and roller are constructed of an easily disposable, and most preferably recyclable, material.
  • the path of the adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape within the applicator provides the applicator with an automatic advancement function. Indeed, once mounted the roll is mounted on to the supply wheel, the carrier tape travels, with adhesive segments facing outwardly, from the supply wheel, out of the housing and over the roller at the point where an adhesive segment or segments are dispensed to the desired object or surface. The spent carrier tape then re-enters the housing and passes over the roll of adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape where it is held in place within the housing by the exposed adhesive on the remaining roll of adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape on the supply wheel. The free end of the roll of adhesive segment-laden carrier release tape is mounted to the take-up wheel, and spent carrier tape is wound thereon.
  • the adhesive segment applicator apparatus of the present invention may also be configured to be compact and handheld - therefore, rendering it easy to accurately dispense adhesive using a single hand, allowing the user to stabilize the surface or workpiece with another hand (if necessary).
  • the present invention can be disposable, such that the user may dispose of or recycle the device, rather then take the device apart for difficult or cumbersome reloading thereof.
  • Each implementation of the adhesive segment applicator apparatus of the present invention is of a construction which is both durable and long lasting, and will require little or no maintenance to be provided by the user throughout its operating lifetime.
  • the adhesive segment applicator apparatuses of the present invention are also of inexpensive construction to enhance their market appeal and to thereby afford them the broadest possible market. Finally, all of the aforesaid advantages and objectives are achieved without incurring any substantial relative disadvantage.
  • FIG. 2 is a side plan view of the handheld adhesive segment applicator illustrated in FIG. 1 , including a manual advancement opening and a portion of an advancement cap;
  • FIG. 3 is a side plan view of the handheld adhesive segment applicator illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 , showing operational engagement of the supply and spent tape take-up wheels;
  • FIG. 4 is an exploded view of the handheld adhesive segment applicator illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 3 ;
  • FIG. 8 is a side view of the advancement cap of the supply wheel of the handheld adhesive segment applicator illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 7 ;
