Abstract:
In an applicator for controllably flowing a mixture of liquid resin-catalyst and fiberglass particles onto a mold surface including a source of resin-catalyst and a source of fiberglass particles, the resin-catalyst being dispensed through a first nozzle and the fiberglass particles being dispensed through an outlet located above the first nozzle whereby fiberglass particles dispensed through the outlet fall, under force of gravity, onto a stream of the resin-catalyst dispensed through the first nozzle having a multiplicity of small holes, the improvement comprising a second nozzle having a nozzle housing with a distal end protruding beyond and disposed below the first nozzle and connected to a source of gas, the second nozzle directing a stream of gas upwardly at the stream of resin-catalyst at a slight angle, the fiberglass particles falling onto the stream of resin-catalyst prior to making contact with the mold surface and being substantially uniformly distributed onto the dispensed resin-catalyst and thence onto the mold surface.
