  • Patent number: 11273461
    Abstract: A device for intermittently applying a flowable substance to a substrate includes an applicator nozzle for applying the flowable substance to the substrate, a tank for holding the flowable substance, a pump for delivering the substance, wherein the pump is actively connected to the tank, and further including an actuator actively connected to the pump and transferred into two positions, in a first position the actuator conducts the substance to the applicator nozzle, and in a second position the actuator blocks the feed to the applicator nozzle, and further including a control device for activating the actuator and for regulating the speed of the pump. A method for applying the substance using the device is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11071997
    Abstract: A device for applying a flowable substance to at least one substrate includes an applicator nozzle in the form of a slotted nozzle which has a stationary nozzle body with an inlet opening, a flow duct, and a nozzle slot, wherein the flowable substance is delivered through the applicator nozzle and passes from the inlet opening into the flow duct and from there to the nozzle slot, and is discharged through an outlet opening of the nozzle slot that is arranged in an outer region of the nozzle body, wherein the applicator nozzle further has a slide valve movable relative to the nozzle body in the longitudinal extent of the outlet opening and contacts the outer region of the nozzle body for modifying the covering of the outlet opening. The longitudinal extent of the flow duct is at least as great as the longitudinal extent of the nozzle slot.

  • Publication number: 20190299237
    Abstract: A device for intermittently applying a flowable substance to a substrate includes an applicator nozzle for applying the flowable substance to the substrate, a tank for holding the flowable substance, a pump for delivering the substance, and a drive means, wherein the pump is actively connected to the tank and driven by drive means, and further including an actuator actively connected to the pump and transferred into two positions, in a first position the actuator conducts the substance to the applicator nozzle, and in a second position blocks the feed to the applicator nozzle, and further including a control device for activating the actuator and for regulating the speed of the drive means of the pump. A method for applying the substance using the device is also provided.
