Abstract

A rotating fluid wide band applicator head which permits application of a relatively wide band of fluid without the necessity for translational motion of the head with respect to the object being coated. The applicator head includes a rotatable body having an axis of rotation and having a fluid delivery chamber disposed within the body. A plurality of bounded channels having open inner ends and open outer ends are provided. The open inner ends of the channels are in fluid communication with the fluid delivery chamber, to receive fluid therefrom and transport the fluid. The open outer ends of the channels are arranged to discharge the fluid in a desired pattern, resulting in deposition of a band of fluid having a desired width.
