Patent number: 6836616Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a hot molten adhesive application machine. More specifically the present invention discloses a unique hot melt adhesive application machine having a novel construction whereby the reservoir of molten adhesive material is heated from within the molten adhesive. The adhesive pump, discharge hoses, and discharge applicators are heated by electrical resistance heating elements that may operate on 120 or 240 volt current. Further, a novel axial pump piston is disclosed whereby the pump cylinder bore may be machined to a lessor tolerance standard than previous pumps of this type.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2003Date of Patent: December 28, 2004Assignee: Valco Cincinnati, Inc.Inventors: Chris M. Jamison, Daniel J. Davidson

Patent number: 5803313Abstract: A hand held apparatus for dispensing fluid from a fluid supply. The apparatus includes a housing with a first body portion and a second body portion, a conduit assembly coupled to the fluid supply, and a substantially balanced valve assembly interconnecting the conduit assembly and a nozzle. The valve assembly is actuatable by first and second independent triggers disposed on same side of the housing and protectable by a common trigger guard. The first trigger is usable to actuate the valve assembly when the first body portion of the housing is used as a hand grip, and the second trigger is usable to actuate the valve assembly when the second body portion of the housing is used as a hand grip. A connector assembly couples the fluid supply conduit to the conduit assembly. The connector assembly includes a conduit connector with a ball portion disposed in a ball socket having a sealing member disposed about a circumference of the ball portion.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 1996Date of Patent: September 8, 1998Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventors: Larry W. Flatt, Chris M. Jamison

Patent number: 5719378Abstract: A self-calibrating temperature controller adapted for use in controlling closely the temperature of hot-melt adhesive dispensed from an adhesive supply unit is provided. The temperature controller includes a microcomputer operated under a stored program to perform automatically a self-calibrating operation. A non-volatile memory is provided for storing RTD values in a lookup table so as to compensate for the non-linearity of the RTD sensors.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 1996Date of Patent: February 17, 1998Assignee: Illinois Tool Works, Inc.Inventors: John M. Jackson, Jr., Chris M. Jamison

Patent number: 5632918Abstract: A heat dissipating chimney in an apparatus for the melting and dispensing of solid and quasi-solid materials, such as thermoplastics and hot melt adhesives, is disclosed. Air convection paths are provided which control the flow of heated air from a plurality of heat sources, through the cabinet of the apparatus, eventually exhausting the heated air to atmosphere. Degradation of the performance of heat-sensitive components of the apparatus is avoided by the heat dissipating system provided by the present invention.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 1995Date of Patent: May 27, 1997Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventors: Jon C. Zook, Chris M. Jamison

Patent number: 5632448Abstract: A system for atomizing and dispensing powder comprises a fluidized powder bed for entraining the powder fluidized in a bearing air stream, a dispenser, and a motor for rotating the dispenser. The dispenser has a somewhat bell-shaped interior. The motor has an output shaft having a first passageway extending lengthwise thereof. A feed tube extends through the first passageway. The fluidized powder is fed to an end of the feed tube passageway remote from the dispenser to be supplied through the feed tube to the interior as the motor rotates the dispenser. A diffuser is mounted within the interior. A discharge slot is defined between the dispenser and an edge of the diffuser. The feed tube is mounted so that it does not rotate with the output shaft. The diffuser includes a back side facing the interior and bounded by the edge. The back side includes a generally part-spherical concavity into which the fluidized powder is directed from the feed tube.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 1995Date of Patent: May 27, 1997Assignee: Ransburg CorporationInventors: Kevin L. Alexander, Wade H. Hickam, Chris M. Jamison, Michael C. Rodgers

Patent number: 5413283Abstract: A quick disconnect for a coating material dispensing device includes a passageway through which coating material is supplied from a supply conduit for dispensing. The supply conduit includes a first region along its length provided with a surrounding O-ring. The passageway includes a sidewall providing a second region along its length in which the first region resides when the supply conduit is positioned in a use orientation in the dispensing device. The second region compresses the O-ring into fluid-tight sealing orientation against the passageway sidewall in the second region when the supply conduit is inserted into the passageway into its use orientation.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 1993Date of Patent: May 9, 1995Assignee: Ransburg CorporationInventors: James J. Gimple, David L. Hamilton, Daniel C. Hughey, Chris M. Jamison, David M. Seitz

Patent number: 5411210Abstract: A device for atomizing and dispensing a first liquid coating material onto a first group of one or more articles to be coated by the first coating material and then for dispensing a second liquid coating material onto a second group of one or more articles to be coated by the second coating material. The device includes at least one atomizer providing a first flow rate of the first and second coating materials required for high quality atomization of the first and second coating materials, and a second outlet providing a second and substantially greater flow rate of the first and second coating materials and lower quality atomization than the first atomizer, or no atomization. A first conduit couples the second outlet to the first atomizer. A second conduit couples the first atomizer to a source of fluid to be dispensed. A valve controls the flow of liquid to the second outlet.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 1992Date of Patent: May 2, 1995Assignee: Ransburg CorporationInventors: James J. Gimple, David L. Hamilton, Daniel C. Hughey, Chris M. Jamison, David M. Seitz

Patent number: 5154357Abstract: A coating material dispensing system comprises an electrostatic high potential supply having an output terminal on which the supply maintains a high electrostatic potential, a source of coating material, and a dispenser for dispensing the coating material. The output terminal is coupled to the dispenser to supply potential to the coating material dispensed by the dispenser. A peristaltic device couples the dispenser to the source of coating material. The peristaltic device has a length of resilient conduit and contactors for movably contacting the length of resilient conduit at multiple contact points for substantially dividing the coating material in the peristaltic device into discrete slugs of coating material substantially to interrupt the electrical path through the coating material from the terminal to the coating material source. Thhe peristaltic device includes an inlet end for coupling to the source of coating material.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 1991Date of Patent: October 13, 1992Assignee: Ransburg CorporationInventors: Chris M. Jamison, Gregg S. LaMontagne

Patent number: 4982903Abstract: A coating material dispensing system includes an electrostatic high potential supply having an output terminal on which the supply maintains a high electrostatic potential, a source of coating material, a dispenser for dispensing the coating material, and appropriate fluid and electric circuits for coupling the dispenser to the source of coating material and the output terminal to the dispenser to supply potential to the coating material dispensed by the dispenser. The fluid circuit coupling the dispenser to the source of coating material includes a peristaltic voltage block having multiple coils of a resilient conduit and a rotor for supporting an element for contacting each coil at multiple contact points. The peristaltic voltage block substantially divides the flow of coating material to the dispenser into discrete slugs of coating material substantially to interrupt the electrical path through the coating material from the terminal to the coating material supply.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 1989Date of Patent: January 8, 1991Assignee: Ransburg CorporationInventors: Chris M. Jamison, Eric A. Petersen
