Abstract
Abstract A glue applicator for applying glue to a moving web is in the form of a gear pump having its housing in close proximity to the web and having a discharge nozzle adapted to discharge glue directly onto the web. The drive and the mount for the housing permit adjustable movement transversely of and normal to the web.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
153 words
In combination with a moving web of paper or the like, a glue applicator for applying glue to said moving web comprising: a glue pump including a housing therefor, said housing being formed with an inlet for glue and a discharge nozzle, means mounting said housing in close proximity to said web with said discharge nozzle positioned for applying the discharged glue directly from said nozzle to said moving web, a rotating member associated with said moving web and rotating at a speed proportional to the speed of said web, a rotatable rod of noncircular cross section for driving said pump, said pump including a driven gear formed with a through opening having a cross section complementary to the cross section of said rotatable rod and receiving the latter therethrough, means interconnecting said rotating member and said rod for driving said pump at a speed proportional to the speed of said moving web.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
153 words
In combination with a moving web of paper or the like, a glue applicator for applying glue to said moving web comprising: a glue pump including a housing therefor, said housing being formed with an inlet for glue and a discharge nozzle, means mounting said housing in close proximity to said web with said discharge nozzle positioned for applying the discharged glue directly from said nozzle to said moving web, a rotating member associated with said moving web and rotating at a speed proportional to the speed of said web, a rotatable rod of noncircular cross section for driving said pump, said pump including a driven gear formed with a through opening having a cross section complementary to the cross section of said rotatable rod and receiving the latter therethrough, means interconnecting said rotating member and said rod for driving said pump at a speed proportional to the speed of said moving web.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The combination of claim 1 wherein said pump is adjustable to different positions along the length of said rod.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
The combination of claim 1 wherein said rod is readily removable from said pump to stop the latter and prevent discharge of glue therefrom.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
The combination of claim 1 wherein a second pump is mounted in a manner similar to said first mentioned pump and connected to said rod.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
17 words
The combination of claim 4 wherein said pumps are relatively movable along the length of said rod.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
56 words
The combination of claim 1 wherein said moving web is reeved about a rotating roller and said mounting means supports said housing for discharging the glue in one direction, and second mounting means for supporting said housing for discharging the glue in substantially the opposite direction when the direction of movement of said web is reversed.
