Abstract
An oscillating grout applicator for applying a volume of grout to a target surface includes a grout reservoir for receiving the volume of grout, the grout reservoir having an inlet and an outlet. The outlet of the reservoir is coupled to a resilient mouth, and an oscillator is operatively coupled to the resilient mouth so as to apply or transmit an oscillating motion to the resilient mouth. Momentary liquefaction of a portion of the volume of grout located within the resilient mouth occurs when the oscillating motion is applied to the resilient mouth, thereby urging the volume of grout through the resilient mouth and onto the target surface. The resilient mouth may be manufactured of a resilient rubber, or other suitable resilient material.
