US 10,240,345 B2 · Asphalt emulsion application device

Abstract

An asphalt emulsion application device for roofing cement application includes a rod, a first plate and a pair of second plates. The first plate has a first edge that is coupled to a first end of the rod. Each second plate is coupled to and extends transversely from a respective opposing side edge of the first plate. The rod is configured to be grasped in a hand of a user. The first plate is positioned on the rod and the second plates are positioned on the first plate such that the first plate and the second plates are configured to position of an emulsion, such as roofing cement. The rod is positioned to motivate the emulsion to a desired location. The rod also is positioned to motivate the first plate and the second plate to spread the emulsion.
