Abstract

A nozzle assembly for discharging a desired substance such as adhesives is disclosed. The nozzle assembly includes a mechanism for discharging a substance. The discharge mechanism is associated with a supply source to introduce the substance into the discharge mechanism. A mechanism is associated with the discharge mechanism to provide the discharge mechanism with resilient movement in response to forces exerted on the discharge mechanism. The mechanism to provide resilient movement deflects in response to forces applied to the discharge mechanism. The mechanism to provide resilient movement returns the discharge mechanism to substantially the original position of the discharge mechanism before the forces were exerted on the discharge mechanism. The mechanism to provide resilient movement is substantially rigid when the assembly is in a non-deflected position.
