Sealant dispensing apparatus
A sealant dispensing apparatus includes a rotatable injection cartridge for loading a sealant, having a plurality of outlets distributed from a periphery to a center with respect to a rotation axis of the injection cartridge; and a nozzle assembly in fluid communication with the injection cartridge, including at least two sub-nozzles arranged in a line. The outlet of the injection cartridge closer to the center of the injection cartridge is in communication with the sub-nozzle of the nozzle assembly closer to a first end of the line, and the outlet of the injection cartridge closer to the periphery of the injection cartridge is in communication with the sub-nozzle of the nozzle assembly closer to a second end of the line. The first end is opposite to the second end.
1. A sealant dispensing apparatus, comprising:
a rotatable injection cartridge for loading a sealant, the injection cartridge having a plurality of outlets distributed from a periphery to a center with respect to a rotation axis of the injection cartridge; and
a nozzle assembly in fluid communication with the injection cartridge, the nozzle assembly comprising at least two sub-nozzles arranged in a line,
wherein the outlet of the injection cartridge closer to the center of the injection cartridge is in communication with the sub-nozzle of the nozzle assembly closer to a first end of the line, and the outlet of the injection cartridge closer to the periphery of the injection cartridge is in communication with the sub-nozzle of the nozzle assembly closer to a second end of the line, such that the outlets distributed outwardly from the center of the injection cartridge communicate with the sub-nozzles distributed from the first end to the second end, respectively, the first end being opposite to the second end.
2. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the nozzle assembly comprises two sub-nozzles arranged in a line, wherein one of the sub-nozzles is in communication with the outlet of the injection cartridge located at the periphery and the other of the sub-nozzles is in communication with the outlet of the injection cartridge located at the center.
3. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the nozzle assembly comprises three sub-nozzles arranged in a line, wherein the sub-nozzle located at the first end of the line is in communication with the outlet of the injection cartridge located at the periphery, the sub-nozzle located at the second end of the line is in communication with the outlet of the injection cartridge located at the center, and the nozzle located in the middle is in communication with the outlet of the injection cartridge between the periphery and the center.
4. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the injection cartridge is configured to rotate after being filled with the sealant and before dispensing the sealant via the nozzle assembly.
5. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a housing disposed around the injection cartridge and the nozzle assembly.
6. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the housing is secured.
7. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the outlets of the injection cartridge have respective recesses independent from each other to collect the sealant in the vicinity of the respective outlets.
8. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the injection cartridge is integrally formed with the nozzle assembly.
9. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the dispensing apparatus is provided with a positioning mark for positioning a position of the nozzle assembly after rotation of the injection cartridge.
10. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the injection cartridge is configured to rotate at a rotational speed ranging from 500 RPM to 2000 RPM.
11. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the injection cartridge is provided, at an end of the injection cartridge opposite to the nozzle assembly, with a cartridge cover and an air pipe connector provided on the cartridge cover.
12. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the injection cartridge and the nozzle assembly are made of stainless steel.
13. The sealant dispensing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of outlets comprises a plurality of outlets located between the periphery and the center.
