Patent ID: 8662009

Claim:
An adhesive application apparatus for applying a liquid adhesive to an object, comprising: a regular application stage against which the object is placed for a regular application of the liquid adhesive to the object; a trial application stage to which a trial application of the liquid adhesive is carried out; an application unit relatively movable with respect to the regular application stage and trial application stage to carry out the regular application and trial application of the liquid adhesive; a suction unit carrying out a suction operation of the liquid adhesive used in the trial application; and a porous adsorptive pad provided with the trial application stage and including a porous liquid-repellant part comprising a fluorine coating and a porous non-liquid-repellant part, wherein the non-liquid-repellant part is constructed so as to allow a droplet of the liquid adhesive to pass through from a front side to a backside of the non-liquid-repellant part even in absence of the suction operation, and wherein the liquid-repellant part comprising the fluorine coating is constructed so as to not pass the droplet of the liquid adhesive from a front side through to a backside of the liquid-repellant part comprising the fluorine coating until the suction operation is performed.
