Title:
FLUID DISPENSING SYSTEM FOR NON-CIRCULAR MEMBERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000030769
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
A sealant dispensing system is disclosed which applies sealant material onto irregularly shaped, i.e. non-circular, closure members (100). A closure member is loaded onto a rotary chuck (82) connected to servo motor (76). The sealant applying gun (120) is moveable, so that through a combination of rotation of the member (100) and movement of the gun (120) the gun follows the outline of the member (100) of any shape. After loading member (100) onto chuck (82), chuck rotation is initiated. An electromagnet (86) may be located in proximity to each chuck (82) so that the electromagnet (86) may be activated during loading of the closure member (100) onto the chuck (82) and then deactivated during unloading of the member (100) from the chuck (82) following application of sealant.
