  • Publication number: 20230009538
    Abstract: Provided is an application method including: a feeding step including feeding a viscous material to a discharge member; a temperature measurement step including measuring a temperature of the viscous material in a flow path through which the viscous material is fed to the discharge member; a pressurizing step including pressurizing the viscous material fed to the discharge member, based on the temperature measured in the temperature measurement step; and a discharge step including discharging, through the discharge member, the viscous material pressurized in the pressurizing step.

  • Patent number: 11065638
    Abstract: A sealing agent (25) sent from a nozzle tube (36) to a nozzle main body (37) is passed through a main body flow channel portion (37a), a connecting portion (37c), a first flow channel portion (37b), and plural second flow channel portions (37d), sent to a chamber (37e), and discharged from a nozzle port (37f) to the outside. Since the second flow channel portions (37d) are smaller than a downstream end of the first flow channel portion (37b), the sealing agent (25) in the first flow channel portion (37b) is vigorously sent to the chamber (37e), and discharged from the nozzle port (37f) to the outside. As a result, substantially the same quantity of the sealing agent (25) is discharged in the entire range of the chamber (37e).

  • Patent number: 10780651
    Abstract: An application unit (13) comprises a rotation unit (26) and a support unit (27). The rotation unit (26) comprises a nozzle unit (28), a nozzle support part (29), a body base (30), a first supply part (31), a second supply part (32), a third supply part (33), a valve (34), and a motor (35). The nozzle support part (29) rotatably supports the nozzle unit (28) such that the central axis of the nozzle unit (28) is inclined with respect to the rotation axis of the rotation unit (26).

  • Patent number: 10562058
    Abstract: A nozzle unit 22 is attached to a mounting portion 15 of a coating apparatus 10 through a support portion 21. The nozzle unit 22 can move along an arc-shaped guide portion 29 provided on the support portion 21. The guide portion 29 maintains a tip of a nozzle 31 at a center position of the arc shape and supports the nozzle unit 22 such that the nozzle unit 22 can move along the arc shape.

  • Patent number: 8761936
    Abstract: A teaching line correcting apparatus defines a first plane, which is determined by a first reference position of a preset first reference region, a second reference position of a preset second reference region, and a third reference position of a preset third reference region, defines a second plane, which is determined by a detected position of the first reference region, a detected position of the second reference region, and a detected position of the third reference region, calculates a corrective value for equalizing the first reference region to an origin, equalizing the first reference position of the first reference region as the origin to the detected position of the first reference region as the origin, and equalizing the first plane to the second plane, and correcting reference coordinates where operating points are taught based on the calculated corrective value.
