Abstract:
PURPOSE: A pneumatically-driven jetting valve with variable drive pin velocity is provided to increase and decrease drive pin velocity and to record drive pin velocity and overlap time. CONSTITUTION: A jetting valve comprises a pneumatic actuator(16), first and second solenoid valves, a fluid chamber, a nozzle(28), and a controller. The controller maintains a predetermined overlap time between first and second times. A drive pin moves toward a valve sheet(52) during the second time.

Abstract:
A jetting dispenser with multiple jetting nozzle outlets is provided to simultaneously inject a multiplicity of liquid drops from the multiple jetting nozzle outlets by endowing the liquid material supplied to the dispenser with a propulsion force. A jetting dispenser with multiple jetting nozzle outlets includes a dispenser body, a valve member(22), a valve driver, and a jetting nozzle. The dispenser body is connected to a source of a liquid material and includes a fluid channel(14), a fluid channel outlet communicated with the fluid channel, and a valve seat in the vicinity of the fluid channel outlet. The valve member is movably disposed in the fluid channel to selectively make contact with the valve seat. The valve driver is operably connected to the valve member and can be operated so that the valve member can make contact with or be separated from the valve seat to selectively move the valve member. The jetting nozzle is connected to the dispenser body adjacent to the channel outlet and includes a nozzle body and a plurality of nozzle outlets in the nozzle body communicated with the fluid channel outlet.
