Abstract
This invention relates to a kind of gas ignition glue gun and more particularly to one which uses a cutter to cut inserted glue stick into two halves, and uses gas to burn cotton asbestos to further heat a tubular insert, into which a glue stick is inserted, so as to efficiently melt the inserted glue stick into semiliquid for further output for sealing process by means of the operation of the feed control mechanism thereof.
Claims3
A gas ignition glue gun, including:
- a gun body comprising therein a tubular insert for insertion therein of a glue stick, said tubular insert being comprised of a front half portion and a rear half portion, said front half portion comprising integrally a plurality of raised blocks firmly retained by a plurality of projecting blocks to become firmly positioned in alignment with said rear half portion, a nozzle with an axial bore, screwed onto said tubular insert at the front through which melted glue may be ejected, a plurality of radiator holes on side wall portion of the gun body to help radiation of heat,
- a feed control mechanism comprising a feed control lever, a resilient element connected with said feed control lever, a clamping element connected with said resilient element at the top to retain the glue stick inserted into said tubular insert, a return spring connected with said clamping element at the back side, a spring and a connected hook-like retainer ring made of silicone rubber set in said tubular insert in the middle to firmly retain the glue stick inserted therein, a cutter set in said tubular insert to cut the inserted glue stick into two semicircular halves, and a spring and a connected ball set in the axial bore of said nozzle;
- an ignition mechanism set in said gun body, comprising an ignition trigger disposed to protrude beyond the outer wall surface of said bun body, a main rod comprising a rack portion at the top and being connected with said ignition trigger, a triggering rod in contact with the front bevel edge of said main rod, an igniter connected with said triggering rod, said igniter comprising a ignition tube at the front through which sparks may be ignited;
- a gas volume regulating mechanism set in said gun body, comprising a gas volume regulating lever disposed to protrude beyond the outer wall surface of said gun body, a gear wheel connected with said gas volume regulating lever at the front and disposed to engage with the rack portion of said main rod, a return spring and a radiator fin connected to said gas volume regulating lever at the back, a cotton asbestos set at the front of the gas volume regulating mechanism adjacent to said tubular insert and being covered by a metal cover of high heat conductivity;
- characterized in that said feed control mechanism controls forward feeding of glue stick, said ignition mechanism and said gas volume regulating mechanism control spark ignition and intensity of flame to completely melt the glue stick into liquid.
