US Patent 10370862 Adhesive application apparatus for tiles

An apparatus for applying adhesive to a tile comprises a container for receiving the adhesive to be applied to the tile. The container defines a downwardly-opening orifice through which the adhesive is enabled to pass out of the container. The apparatus further features a substantially horizontally extending track coupled below the container and adapted for supporting the tile in sliding movement underneath the orifice from an inlet side of the orifice and past the orifice to an outlet side thereof so that the adhesive received in the container passes out of the orifice and onto the tile.
