Abstract
An application head ( ) for application of hot-melt adhesive onto a width of material ( ) has a housing ( ) with a control slide chamber ( ). A cylinder control slide ( ) is supported and is rotatably drivable in the housing. At least one supply aperture introduces an adhesive into the control slide chamber ( ). A slotted nozzle ( ) releases the adhesive. The slotted nozzle is controllable by the cylinder control slide ( ). The nozzle extends transversely to the direction of movement of the width of material ( ). The cylinder control slide ( ) has a cylindrical surface which is able to seal the slotted nozzle ( ) from the inside. The control slide ( ) also has surface grooves ( ) in the cylindrical surface. The grooves, as a function of their rotational positions, are able to communicate with the slotted nozzle. Furthermore, the cylinder control slide ( ) inside the control slide chamber, has either an inner cavity ( ) supplied with medium through a supply aperture, as well as radial exit bores ( ) leading from the inner cavity into the surface grooves, or it has a helical or spiral-shaped surface groove in the cylindrical surface, as well as a storage volume for medium, which communicates with the at least one surface groove.
