[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0034] Hot melt adhesive, which has been treated at high temperature and has fluidity, is injected into the dispensing valve through the inlet 51 by an external adhesive supply unit, such as a pressure plate pump.

[0035] When dispensing is required, the servo drive mechanism rotates and drives the sealing head to move downward, thus moving away from the dispensing port. At this time, a dispensing gap is formed between the sealing part and the dispensing port. The glue enters from the glue inlet, flows along the glue inlet channel and the glue guide channel, and finally flows out from the dispensing gap to achieve dispensing.

[0036] When it is necessary to close the glue, the servo drive mechanism rotates and drives the sealing head to move upward and closer to the glue outlet. At this time, the sealing part completely blocks the glue outlet to close the glue.

[0037] In the above process, the rotary motion is converted into linear motion by the servo drive mechanism to drive the sealing head to move back and forth to realize the dispensing operation, thereby improving the speed and sensitivity of dispensing, thus improving the accuracy of dispensing amount and the consistency of dispensing amount in multiple applications. In addition, the partition and metal fins effectively block and dissipate the heat carried by the flowing hot melt adhesive liquid, ensuring that the hot melt adhesive liquid has good fluidity, and avoiding the performance degradation and shortened service life of the servo drive mechanism due to heat.

[0038] When using the above-mentioned hot melt adhesive dispensing valve, the rotary motion is converted into linear motion through the servo drive mechanism to drive the sealing head to move back and forth to realize the dispensing operation, thereby improving the speed and sensitivity of dispensing, thus improving the accuracy of dispensing amount and the consistency of dispensing amount in multiple applications. It also effectively blocks and dissipates the heat carried by the flowing hot melt adhesive liquid, ensuring that the hot melt adhesive liquid has good fluidity, and avoiding the performance degradation and shortened service life of the servo drive mechanism due to heat.

[0039] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
