Wheel apparatus (1) for applying adhesive to books includes a wheel (30) rotating about a horizontal axis. A portion of the wheel below the axis rotates between two walls (90) rising from the bottom of the adhesive reservoir (34). A metering surface (84) extends from a step (80) near the bottom of the wheel in a curve slightly diverging from the wheel to a terminal edge (88) extending between walls (90). Walls (90) and step (80) and surface (84) serve to meter the amount of adhesive carried by wheel (30) for application. Walls (90) are spaced from side walls (70, 72) to form recirculate channels for adhesive. The wheel (30) and a counter-rotary spinner wheel (32) are carried by a frame (46) pivoted on reservoir (34) so the wheel (30, 32) can be moved away from reservoir (34) for cleaning purposes. |
