The holding portion has a button, an insertion hole receiving the button, a spring enclosing a middle portion of the button, a pressing end disposed on a bottom of the button and out of the insertion hole, a blocking portion adjacent to the circular hole, a male socket, and a support plate. The male socket has an oblong hole and an upper face. The barrel has a hollow casing, a through hole, and a guide groove. The front casing has a round aperture and a rear flange. The rear casing has a tube, and a female socket. The tube has an elastic click plate contacting a bottom of the button. The hot-melted device has a main pipe, an electric heater disposed on a lower portion of the main pipe, a rear pipe connected to the main pipe, and an injection nozzle disposed on a front portion of the main pipe. Two conductive rods are connected to the electric heater. The tube is inserted in the circular hole of the holding portion. The elastic click plate engages with the blocking portion. The female socket engages with the male socket. The female socket has two through apertures receiving the conductive rods. Two conductive wires are connected to the conductive rods. Two electric wires are connected to the conductive rods. The male socket receives the conductive wires. The hot-melted device is inserted in the hollow casing. The injection nozzle passes through the through hole of the hollow casing. The front casing is disposed on a front portion of the hollow casing. The hollow casing is disposed on the support plate and in front of the rear casing. The rear pipe is inserted in the tube.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION




Referring to

FIGS. 3

,


4


, and


4


A first, a hot-melted adhesive gun comprises a holding portion


5


, a barrel


6


, a hot-melted device


62


disposed in the barrel


6


, a front casing


7


, and a rear casing


63


.




The holding portion


5


has a button


55


, an insertion hole


50


receiving the button


55


, a spring


57


enclosing a middle portion of the button


55


, a pressing end


551


disposed on a bottom of the button


55


and out of the insertion hole


50


, a blocking portion


58


adjacent to the circular hole


54


, a male socket


52


, and a support plate


53


. The male socket


52


has an oblong hole


511


and an upper face


51


. The support plate


53


has a protruded bar


531


.




The barrel


6


has a hollow casing


61


, a through hole


611


, and a guide groove


612


.




The front casing


7


has a round aperture


70


and a rear flange


71


.




The rear casing


63


has a tube


631


, and a female socket


633


. The tube


631


has an elastic click plate


632


contacting a bottom of the button


55


.




The hot-melted device


62


has a main pipe


621


, an electric heater


623


disposed on a lower portion of the main pipe


621


, a rear pipe


624


connected to the main pipe


621


, an injection nozzle


622


disposed on a front portion of the main pipe


621


, and an annular flange


626


enclosing a rear portion of the injection nozzle


622


. Two conductive rods


625


are connected to the electric heater


623


.




The tube


631


is inserted in the circular hole


54


of the holding portion


5


. The elastic click plate


632


engages with the blocking portion


58


.
