Abstract
A nozzle for applying adhesive or other liquid to a surface comprises a box-like member with a slot in one of its faces, and an internal partition separating first and second components in the box-like member. One or more projecting portions of one edge of the partition extend into the slot, while other portions of the partition's one edge are recessed to form a weir over which liquid may flow between the components. The slot, through which liquid passes for application to the surface, is thus an interrupted slot, applying a series of short lengths of liquid to the surface, which is of advantage in obtaining a clean separation of the nozzle and the surface after liquid application. The box-like member may be in two parts, one on each face of the partition, and these three members may be bolted together to allow easy replacement of the partition if a change of slot configuration is required.
