Abstract:
An apparatus for applying a viscous fluid to an object, comprising:a viscous fluid application member to receive a viscous fluid; a nozzle for discharging the viscous fluid from one end of said nozzle and applying the viscous fluid to an object; a discharge shaft that is insertable within said viscous fluid application member along an axis of said nozzle and rotatable about the axis of said nozzle such that when said discharge shaft is inserted within said viscous fluid application member along the axis of said nozzle and rotated about the axis of said nozzle, said discharge shaft conveys the viscous fluid along the axis of said nozzle whereby the viscous fluid is discharged from and held at said one end of said nozzle; and a viscous fluid application member-rotating device to rotate said viscous fluid application member about an axis of said discharge shaft in response to an application condition of the viscous fluid.
