ABSTRACT:
A sealant melter incorporates a sealant block feed assembly that reduces the labor required to feed sealant blocks to the sealant tank of the melter and that reduces or even eliminates the risk that hot liquid sealant will splash out of the sealant tank when sealant blocks are fed into it. The sealant block feed assembly preferably includes a top-fed splash box and a conveyor assembly for feeding sealant blocks to the splash box from a towing/storage vehicle or the like. The splash box incorporates internal guards in the form of counterbalanced flaps that prevent hot liquid sealant from splashing out of the splash box when the sealant blocks are fed into it from above. The conveyor assembly includes a conveyor that is selectively controllable, either from the towing/storage vehicle or from curbside, to receive sealant blocks and to selectively feed the received sealant blocks to the splash box. The height and/or the length of the conveyor can be varied to meet the needs of a particular towing/storage vehicle, and the entire sealant block feed assembly is configured for detachably mounting on the sealant melter frame so as to be easily retrofittable on a previously-assembled sealant melter.
