Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hot-melt adhesive device, in particular a hot-melt adhesive device designed in the form of a gun.
  • a hot-melt adhesive device designed in the form of a gun.
  • 1D voltage-operated heating units in a manually operable gun housing which is provided with a feed unit for fixed adhesive rods to be heated (hence often also called a "hot glue device"), are sufficiently known from the prior art.
  • the object is achieved by the heat adhesive device with the features of claim 1 and the operating method with the features of claim 9.
  • the application unit which can be detached from the stand module, advantageously enables the heating module 5, which is preferably provided with a pistol-shaped handle, to be handled completely without cables or connections, so that not only difficult-to-reach places can be reached, but also potential ones that arise from an electrical supply cable Risks at the place of use can be avoided.
  • the detachability of the handle unit provided in accordance with the further development also enables simple replacement of used adhesive containers, which can more preferably be in the form of cartridges and, thanks to the structural design of the heating unit as a profile, with optimized,
  • the coding of the adhesive cartridge and the heating module which is provided in accordance with the further development, enables in a particularly advantageous manner a further flexibility of the application possibilities by special training or adjustment of heating elements.
  • the temperature switch provided in accordance with the further development enables the heating unit to be activated or deactivated as a function of an actual (actual) temperature, so that additional heating power is specifically switched on at measured temperatures below
  • the brightness control unit provided in accordance with the further development also eliminates the disadvantageous consequences 35 of devices kept in heating mode over a long period of time (for example overnight), both with regard to a deteriorating quantity of adhesive and to the electrical energy consumption. Further advantages, features and details of the invention result from the following description of preferred exemplary embodiments and from the figures; these show in
  • Fig. 1 an exploded view of the present
  • Heat adhesive device according to a first preferred embodiment with the essential mechanical components and their interaction with one another in the assembled state;
  • FIG. 2 a profile view of the heating unit of the embodiment according to FIG. 1, which is designed as a metal profile;
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 a detailed view of the heating unit according to FIGS. 2 and
  • FIG. 1 shows an exploded view of the mechanical and structural design of the hot-melt adhesive device according to the invention in accordance with a first preferred embodiment.
  • a stand unit 10 consisting of stand base plate 12 and stand housing 14, has a power supply line (not shown in the figure) and connection electronics which provide operating voltage for a pistol-shaped application or adhesive unit 18 by means of a pair of contacts 16.
  • the adhesive unit 18 is formed, on the one hand, from a handle realized from handle shells 20, 22, which can be releasably connected to a heating housing 26, consisting of housing shells 28, 30, by means of a bayonet locking unit 24 is.
  • the heating housing 26 encloses a heating profile made of aluminum (FIGS. 2 to 4) with a length 1 of approx. 80 mm, which offers a cylindrical interior for receiving a cylindrical adhesive cartridge 34, for example with liquid plastic or plastic that can be liquefied by external heat accommodates additional PTC heating elements.
  • the arrangement of the heating profile 32 and the cartridge 34 is fastened in the heating housing 26 by means of rear (36) or front (38) retaining rings made of heat-resistant plastic, the cartridge 34 being exposed at its outlet end and having an outlet 40.
  • the adhesive material heated by means of the heating profile 32 is dispensed from the cartridge by the pressure effect of a feed rod 42, which moves in the axial direction of the cartridge 34 through a feed unit formed by a feed lever 34 and a feed hook 46, engaging a toothing of the feed rod designed as a toothed rack can be as soon as an operator with his index finger actuates the feed lever 44 in the manner of a pistol trigger.
  • a brake element 48 designed as a clamp prevents the feed rod 42 from moving out against the pressure direction.
  • a thermal switch which contacts the heating profile piece 32 on the casing side in the assembled state and thus enables a temperature measurement; this electrical unit provides a control signal which controls the heating operation of the device in the manner to be described below.
  • the heating profile has a chamber section in the cross-sectional direction, which is designed to insert two PTC heating elements together with the contact. More precisely 3, a first PTC 52 is held in the receiving space in such a way that electrical voltage can be applied to it through contacts acting on the end of a first conductor segment 54 and a second, common conductor segment 56. The arrangement is surrounded by an electrically insulating sleeve 57. In the axial direction of the heating profile, a second PTC (not shown) sits flush and adjacent to the first and is contacted with the common, second conductor segment 56 on which
  • the first PTC is designed for continuous heating operation and, with a heating temperature of approximately 170 ° C., enables the heating profile to be permanently heated to a constant temperature between approximately 130 and approximately 140 ° C., which in the present exemplary embodiment is used as an operating Adhesive temperature
  • the second PTC is provided only for heating purposes, has a higher heating temperature of, for example, 300 ° C. and is only activated when the temperature detected in the receiving space 50 by means of a thermocouple
  • operating states i.e. current operating temperature below target operating temperature or at this
  • 30 operating states are visually recognizable to the user.
  • the user will therefore leave the adhesive unit 18 in the stand until, after the electrical switch-on, the target temperature is reached (which is achieved due to the additional, powerful PTC with a shorter heating time compared to the prior art), whereupon the adhesive unit 18 can then be removed and the adhesive is removed at the place of use by actuating the lever 44.
  • the adhesive unit 18 is brought back onto the stand and, if the current temperature of the adhesive in the cartridge has fallen below a predetermined limit value, the additional PTC is activated again for accelerated heating.
  • a color individualized and interchangeability of the heating device can be carried out for various adhesives and cartridges: for example, for certain adhesives that require a special temperature operating range, a heating profile 32 specially set up for this purpose can be accommodated in a color-coded housing, which in its color of the cartridge with this adhesive, so that incorrect assignments are excluded.
  • the operator can adapt and replace the color cartridge and associated heating housing for different adhesive applications.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de chauffage de colle comprenant une unité d'application de manipulation manuelle destinée au chauffage électrique d'un contenant interchangeable conçu pour recevoir de la colle, notamment de la colle liquéfiée sous l'effet de la chaleur. Cette unité d'application est dotée d'une unité de chauffage qui est destinée au transfert de chaleur au contenant de colle, qui présente une surface de contact pour le transfert de chaleur et qui a un élément chauffant électrique. Cette unité de chauffage est réalisée dans un matériau d'une capacité thermique prédéterminée. Le dispositif de chauffage de colle comprend également un module support conçu pour alimenter l'élément chauffant en tension électrique lorsque l'unité d'application est posée dessus. Ce module support est conçu de telle façon que l'élément chauffant ne puisse être alimenté en tension que lorsque l'unité d'application est posée et non pas lorsqu'elle est en mode d'utilisation, c'est-à-dire détachée du module support.
