  • In the prior art, when a caulking gun is used for caulking, the amount of caulking discharged from the caulk cartridge cannot be controlled, and the propelling ratio of the caulking gun cannot be flexibly adjusted according to different viscosities of the caulks, thus leading to a too large caulking amount in some work scenes, which on the one hand will cause great interference to the process, and needs additionally performing cleaning work to excess caulk discharged on the to-be-caulked surface, and on the other hand, also causes a problem of serious caulk waste. In some work scenes, the caulking amount at a single time is too small, resulting in that the caulking needs to be performed multiple times to cover the to-be-caulked surface, and then causing a problem that the caulking efficiency is low and further the construction efficiency is affected.

  • In specific use, the locking sheet 24 is pressed so that the locking sheet 24 extends along a vertical direction to release the caulking gun ejector rod 1, the caulking gun ejector rod 1 is pulled to enable the front end of the caulking gun ejector rod 1 to move backward and then release the locking sheet 24, the caulk cartridge is placed inside the barrel 3 with a caulk outlet facing forward, the movable handle 22 is pulled backward, at this time, the upper end of the movable handle 22 can enable the driving block 4 to incline so that the driving block 4 locks the caulking gun ejector rod 1, meanwhile, the upper end of the movable handle 22 pushes the driving block 4 to move forward so as to drive the caulking gun ejector rod 1 to move forward against the friction force between the through hole of the locking sheet 24 and the caulking gun ejector rod 1, the front end of the caulking gun ejector rod 1 is enabled to be squeezed and placed in a rear end of the caulk cartridge inside the barrel 3, to make the caulk discharged from the caulk cartridge; during the forward movement, the driving block 4 will compress the driving spring 5, and the driving spring 5 allows the driving block 4 and the movable handle 22 to always have a movement trend of returning, so that the driving block 4 restores and returns to a normal position when the movable handle 22 is released, which operations are repeated to performing the caulking.
  • In the prior art, when the caulking gun is used for caulking, the amount of the caulk discharged from the caulk cartridge cannot be controlled, thus leading to a too large caulking amount in some work scenes, which on the one hand will cause great interference to the process, and needs extra cleaning work for excess caulk discharged on the to-be-caulked surface, and on the other hand, also causes a problem of serious caulk waste.
