Abstract: An apparatus for delivering a glutinous substance from a cartridge to a brush is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a sleeve and a pressure-cap assembly. The pressure-cap assembly comprises a pressure cap, proximate an inlet of the sleeve. The pressure cap comprises a pressure input, selectively operable to apply pressure to the glutinous substance in the cartridge when the cartridge is received within the sleeve, the pressure cap is in the closed position, and a leading end of the cartridge is in sealed engagement with a valve. The apparatus further comprises a brush-arm assembly, configured to retain the brush and capable of rotating the brush. The valve is selectively operable to enable the glutinous substance to flow from the cartridge to the brush.

Abstract: A robot end effector (100) for dispensing an extrudable substance (102) comprises cartridge bays (122). Each one of the cartridge bays (122) is shaped to receive one of two-part cartridges (104). Each of the two-part cartridges (104) comprises a cartridge outlet (109). The robot end effector (100) also comprises a head assembly (150), comprising pairs of fittings (152). Each pair of the pairs of fittings (152) is configured to selectively supply compressed air from a pressure source (199) to contents of one of the two-part cartridges (104) when the two-part cartridges (104) are received by the cartridge bays (122) and the cartridge bays (122) are translated along a first axis (190) and along a second axis (192) so that the cartridge outlet (109) of the corresponding one of the two-part cartridges (104) is in fluidic communication with the mixer inlet (103).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for cleaning surfaces of an object. A platform may be moved along a path relative to the object using a robotic device. A liquid may be applied onto the plurality of surfaces of the object using an applicator associated with the platform. The liquid may be worked into the plurality of surfaces using a plurality of cleaning elements associated with the platform to dislodge undesired material from the plurality of surfaces. A plurality of flexible members may be moved along the plurality of surfaces to dry the plurality of surfaces and remove the undesired material from the plurality of surfaces. An airflow may be generated that moves the undesired material into a vacuum duct in a vacuum system.

Abstract: A robot end effector (100) for dispensing an extrudable substance (102) comprises a chassis (110), a static mixer (101), and cartridge bays (122), extending from the chassis (110). Each of the cartridge bays (122) is shaped to receive a corresponding one of the two-part cartridges (104). Fluidic communication between the selected one of the two-part cartridges (104) and the static mixer (101) is established when the cartridge bays (122) are moved to a predetermined position with respect to the chassis (110). The robot end effector (100) comprises a dispensing valve (130), attached to the chassis (110), and a head assembly (150), comprising pairs of fittings (152). Each of the pairs of fittings (152) is configured to selectively supply compressed air from a pressure source (199) to contents of a corresponding one of the two-part cartridges (104).
