ABSTRACT:
A dry wall tape applicator where the tape moves through a chamber containing a taping compound and out a dispensing opening to a seam defined by two drywall panels. The dispensing opening is formed in part by an adjustably mounted plate, the position of which is controlled by a rotatable knob having an eccentric actuating stud member engaging a slot of the plate. The plate is held within close tolerances in a slideway so that the dispensing opening defines an accurately controlled slot of uniform width. The bottom wall of the housing has a convex configuration so that when the tape is in close proximity to the bottom wall, there is a proper application of the taping compound to the tape.
