(54) Application method and application device


(57) In an application method and an application device, a liquid (3) to be applied is supplied to form a liquid reservoir (8) immediately upstream of the contact portion between a rotating bar (1) and a continuously-­moving web (2) so as to apply the liquid (3) to the web (2). The effective application length of the bar (1) is set to be shorter than the width of the web (2) so as to prevent the liquid (3) from flying away and suction openings (11) are provided at both the end faces (10) of the effective application length part of the bar (1) so as to suck the excess portion of the liquid (3) along the end faces (10) of the bar (1).
