APPLICATION OF MELTABLE ADHESIVE

摘要

An apparatus for melting and applying meltable adhesive, especially in combination with edge gluing machines for continuously advancing work pieces, includes a melting chamber (4) for the meltable granular adhesive material. The melting chamber is equipped with a heatable melting insert (5). A supply container (17) for the solid meltable granular adhesive material (18) is arranged to open into the melting chamber (4). A power driven closure slide (13) is arranged between the melting chamber (4) and the supply container (17) for the granular adhesive material. The closure slide (13) is operated in such a manner that filling the melting chamber (4) with granular adhesive material (18) is free of trouble and the adhesive material may be properly processed without any difficulties, especially without any jamming.
