ABSTRACT:
A new and improved remote, hot melt adhesive metering station (510), for supplying predetermined or precisely metered volumes of hot melt adhesive material toward applicator head or dispensing nozzle structures, comprises a plurality of rotary, gear-type metering pumps (518) which are arranged in a compact, longitudinally spaced manner upon an axially elongated drive gear manifold (512) such that the rotational axes of the plurality of rotary, gear-type metering pumps (518) are disposed parallel and adjacent to one side of the axially elongated drive gear manifold (512). Hot melt adhesive material is supplied from a remotely located adhesive supply unit (ASU), to the drive gear manifold (512), by an inlet supply port hose connection (542), and all of the pump driven gears (524) of the plurality of rotary, gear-type metering pumps (518) are respectively driven by manifold pump drive gears (514) which are all rotatably mounted upon a common, motor-driven drive shaft (516) rotatably disposed within the drive gear manifold (512). The drive gear manifold (512) is also provided with a plurality of outlet port hose connections (540) to which hot melt adhesive delivery hoses are to be connected.
