Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Pulver-Sprühbeschichtungsvorrichtung gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a powder spray coating device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Pulver-Sprühbeschichtungsvorrichtungen sind beispielsweise aus der DE-A 44 18 288 und der US-A 4 196 465 bekannt.Powder spray coating devices are known for example from DE-A 44 18 288 and US-A 4 196 465.

Die Pulver-Sprühbeschichtungsvorrichtung nach der Erfindung enthält eine Kabine, die mindestens eine Wandöffnung zum Einführen einer Sprühvorrichtung aufweist An die Sprühvorrichtung ist ein Pulverschlauch für die Zuführung von Beschichtungspulver, ein elektrisches Kabel zur Zuführung elektrischer Spannung und meistens auch ein Druckluftschlauch zur Zufuhr von Druckluft angeschlossen. Die Sprühvorrichtung wird von einer außerhalb der Kabine angeordneten Positioniervorrichtung getragen, welche häufig als Hubständer ausgebildet ist, welcher die Sprühvorrichtung vertikal auf und ab bewegen kann. Damit die Anschlußleitungen der Sprühvorrichtung diesen Bewegungen folgen können, müssen sie zwischen ihrer Anschlußstelle an der Sprühvorrichtung und einer außerhalb der Kabine gelegenen ortsfesten Befestigung eine Schlaufe bilden. Während des Sprühbeschichtungsbetriebes gelangen herumfliegende Pulverpartikel auf die Sprühvorrichtung und auf deren Anschlußleitungen. Bei einem Farbwechsel bzw. Wechsel von einer Pulversorte auf eine andere Pulversorte muß nicht nur die Kabine gereinigt werden, sondern auch die Sprühvorrichtung mit ihren Anschlußleitungen aus der Kabine herausgenommen und gereinigt werden, beispielsweise mit Druckluft abgeblasen werden, damit das neu zu verwendende Pulver nicht durch Pulverpartikel des zuvor verwendeten Pulvers verunreinigt wird.The powder spray coating device according to the invention contains a cabin, which has at least one wall opening for introducing a spray device. The spray device is carried by a positioning device arranged outside the cabin, which is often designed as a lifting stand, which can move the spray device vertically up and down. So that the connection lines of the spray device can follow these movements, they must form a loop between their connection point on the spray device and a fixed attachment located outside the cabin. During the spray coating operation, powder particles flying around get onto the spray device and on its connecting lines. When changing colors or changing from one type of powder to another type of powder, not only must the cabin be cleaned, but also the spraying device with its connecting lines must be removed from the cabin and cleaned, for example blown off with compressed air, so that the new powder to be used does not get through Powder particles of the previously used powder is contaminated.

Durch die Erfindung soll die Aufgabe gelöst werden, die Pulver-Sprühbeschichtungsvorrichtung derart auszubilden, daß ein Pulverwechsel schneller durchgeführt werden kann, insbesondere daß für die Reinigung der Einzelteile weniger Zeit und Arbeitsaufwand benötigt werden.The aim of the invention is to achieve the object of designing the powder spray coating device in such a way that a powder change can be carried out more quickly, in particular that less time and effort are required for cleaning the individual parts.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung durch die Merkmale von Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features of claim 1.

Die Erfindung hat den Vorteil, daß die Sprühvorrichtung und ihre Anschlußleitungen nicht mehr von Hand in einem getrennten Arbeitsgang mit Druckluft abgeblasen werden müssen und dann die abgeblasenen Pulverpartikel außerhalb der Kabine herumliegen, sondern daß die Sprühvorrichtung und ihre Ahschlußleitungen automatisch mit Druckluft gereinigt werden, entweder noch während des Sprühbeschichtungsvorganges, zumindest aber dann, wenn die Sprühvorrichtung aus der Kabine herausgenommen wird, wobei kein Pulver außerhalb der Kabine andere Gegenstände verschmutzen kann, sondern von der Druckluft in die Kabine hineingeblasen wird.The invention has the advantage that the spray device and its connecting lines no longer have to be blown off manually with compressed air in a separate operation and then the blown-off powder particles lie outside the cabin, but that the spray device and its connecting lines are automatically cleaned with compressed air, either still during the spray coating process, but at least when the spraying device is removed from the cabin, whereby no powder outside the cabin can contaminate other objects, but rather is blown into the cabin by the compressed air.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden mit Bezug auf die Zeichnungen anhand einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform als Beispiel beschrieben. In den Zeichnungen zeigen

a cross-sectional view of the powder spray coating device of Fig. 1 along the plane II - II.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine Kabine 2 und eine außerhalb von ihr angeordnete Positioniervorrichtung 4, vorzugsweise ein Hubständer, welcher eine, mehrere oder entsprechend Fig. 1 zwei Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 trägt und vertikal auf und abbewegen kann zur Beschichtung eines mit Pulver zu beschichtenden Gegenstandes 8. Hierzu ragen die Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 von der Positioniervorrichtung 4 durch einen vertikalen Wandschlitz 10 der Kabine 2 bis in die Kabine 2 hinein in eine dem Gegenstand 8 gegenüberliegende Position. Der Gegenstand 8 wird von einer Transportvorrichtung 12, beispielsweise einer endlosen Förderkette, quer zur Längsrichtung der Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 durch die Kabine 2 transportiert. Hierzu sind in den Stirnseiten der Kabine 2 Durchgangsöffnungen 14 und 15 gebildet. Gegenüber dem Wandschlitz 10 kann sich in der anderen Längswand der Kabine 2 ebenfalls ein Wanschlitz 10 für Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 oder eine andere Öffnung, beispielsweise für einen Abluftfilter befinden, oder diese gegenüberliegende Wand kann geschlossen sein.Fig. 1 shows a cabin 2 and a positioning device 4 arranged outside of it, preferably a lifting stand, which carries one, several or, corresponding to Fig. 1, two spray device units 6 and can move vertically up and down to coat an article 8 to be coated with powder the spray device units 6 protrude from the positioning device 4 through a vertical wall slot 10 of the cabin 2 into the cabin 2 into a position opposite the object 8. The object 8 is transported through the cabin 2 by a transport device 12, for example an endless conveyor chain, transversely to the longitudinal direction of the spray device units 6. For this purpose, two through openings 14 and 15 are formed in the end faces of the cabin. Opposite the wall slot 10 there can also be a wall slot 10 for spray device units 6 or another opening, for example for an exhaust air filter, in the other longitudinal wall of the cabin 2, or this opposite wall can be closed.

Die Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 bestehen je aus einer Sprühvorrichtung 20 nach der aus der DE-A 44 18 288 oder der US-A 4 196 465 bekannten Art oder einer anderen Art. Ferner enthält jede Sprühvorrichtungseinheit 6 ein Trägerrohr 22, an dessen vorderem Ende die Sprühvorrichtung 20 axial fluchtend befestigt ist und dessen hinteres Ende an der Positioniervorrichtung 4 befestigt ist. Alle Anschlußleitungen, zum Beispiel 24, 25 und 26 sind durch ihr zugehöriges Trägerrohr 22 axial hindurchgeführt, so daß sie nicht durch Pulverpartikel, Staub oder andere Elemente verunreinigt werden können. Die Anschlußleitungen 24, 25 und 26 können aus dem hinteren Ende 28 des Trägerrohres 22, welches relativ weit weg ist von der Kabine 2, herausragen oder an Anschlußelemente angeschlossen sein, die am hinteren Rohrende 28 befestigt sind und an welche externe Leitungen anschließbar sind.The spray device units 6 each consist of a spray device 20 of the type known from DE-A 44 18 288 or US-A 4 196 465 or another type. Furthermore, each spray device unit 6 contains a carrier tube 22, at the front end of which the spray device 20 is axially aligned and its rear end is attached to the positioning device 4. All connecting lines, for example 24, 25 and 26 are axially passed through their associated support tube 22, so that they cannot be contaminated by powder particles, dust or other elements. The connecting lines 24, 25 and 26 can protrude from the rear end 28 of the carrier tube 22, which is relatively far away from the cabin 2, or can be connected to connecting elements which are fastened to the rear tube end 28 and to which external lines can be connected.

Die Sprühvorrichtungen 20 und ihre Trägerrohre 22 sind vorzugsweise so ausgebildet, daß ihre Oberflächen in Rohrlängsrichtung miteinander fluchten oder über stufenfreie allmähliche Übergänge ineinander übergehen, so daß keine Nischen oder Ecken vorhanden sind, an welchen sich Pulver ablagern kann. Vorzugsweise ist mindestens die Oberfläche nicht nur des Trägerrohres 22, sondern auch der Sprühvorrichtung 2 abgerundet, damit Pulver abrutschen kann. Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform hat jede Sprühvorrichtung 20 einen kreisrunden oder ovalen Außenumfang.The spray devices 20 and their carrier tubes 22 are preferably designed such that their surfaces are aligned with one another in the longitudinal direction of the tube or merge into one another via step-free gradual transitions, so that there are no niches or corners on which powder can be deposited. Preferably, at least the surface of not only the support tube 22 but also the spray device 2 is rounded so that powder can slide off. According to a preferred embodiment, each spray device 20 has a circular or oval outer circumference.

Die Sprühvorrichtungen 20 enthalten vorzugsweise wie die Sprühvorrichtungen des genannten Standes der Technik eine oder mehrere Hochspannungselektroden zur elektrostatischen Aufladung des Pulvers und einen Hochspannungserzeuger zur Erzeugung der Hochspannung für die Hochspannungselektroden. Vorzugsweise ist die Hochspannungselektrode mindestens teilweise in einem Druckluftkanal untergebracht, von deren Druckluft sie umspült wird, damit keine Pulverpartikel sich an ihr ansammeln können. Damit bestehen die drei Anschlußleitungen 24, 25 und 26 mindestens aus einem Pulverschlauch oder einem Pulverrohr, einem elektrischen Kabel, vorzugsweise einem Niederspannungskabel für den Hochspannungserzeuger, und einem Druckluftschlauch. Der Hochspannungserzeuger kann anstatt innerhalb der Sprühvorrichtung 20 auch extern angeordnet sein, in welchem Falle ein Hochspannungskabel statt eines Niederspannungskabel benötigt wird. Gemäß einer anderen Ausführungsform kann ohne Hochspannung gearbeitet werden, wenn die Pulverpartikel durch Reibung in ihrem Pulverkanal elektrostatisch aufgeladen werden, sogenannte tribo-elektrische Aufladung bzw. tribo-elektrische Pulverbeschichtung.The spray devices 20, like the spray devices of the cited prior art, preferably contain one or more high-voltage electrodes for electrostatically charging the powder and a high-voltage generator for generating the high voltage for the high-voltage electrodes. The high-voltage electrode is preferably at least partially housed in a compressed air duct, from the compressed air of which it is washed so that no powder particles can collect on it. The three connecting lines 24, 25 and 26 thus consist at least of a powder hose or a powder tube, an electrical cable, preferably a low-voltage cable for the high-voltage generator, and a compressed-air hose. The high voltage generator can also be arranged externally instead of within the spray device 20, in which case a high voltage cable is required instead of a low voltage cable. According to another embodiment, work can be carried out without high voltage if the powder particles are electrostatically charged by friction in their powder channel, so-called tribo-electric charging or tribo-electric powder coating.

Am Wandschlitz 10 sind Druckluftdüsen 30 angeordnet, deren Druckluft-Strahlrichtung gegen den Ort der Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 und gleichzeitig von außen nach innen in den Wandschlitz 10 gerichtet sind, derart, daß ihre Druckluftstrahlen Pulverpartikel von den Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 abblasen und durch den Wandschlitz 10 hindurch in die Kabine 2 hineinblasen. Die Druckluftdüsen 30 werden mindestens dann mit Druckluft beliefert, wenn die Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 aus der Kabine 2 herausgeführt werden, damit sie dann durch die Druckluft automatisch gereinigt werden und das von ihnen abgeblasene Pulver in die Kabine 2 geblasen wird. Damit werden nicht nur die Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 gesäubert, sondern es wird auch vermieden, daß Pulverpartikel außerhalb der Kabine 2 sich auf externe Gegenstände absetzen. Falls es gewünscht wird, kann von den Druckluftdüsen 30 auch dann Druckluft in der vorgenannten Weise gegen die Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 und durch den Kabinenspalt 10 hindurch in die Kabine 2 geblasen werden, während Gegenstände 8 mit Pulver beschichtet werden. Wichtig ist das Abblasen der Sprühbeschichtungsvorrichtung 6 jedoch immer dann, wenn sie aus der Kabine 2 herausbewegt wird. Dadurch wird für einen Pulverwechsel ein Säubern der Sprühvorrichtungseinheiten 6 von Hand und eine Verschmutzung von Gegenständer außerhalb der Kabine vermieden. Damit wird der Pulverwechsel wesentlich beschleunigt und es ist weniger Arbeit hierfür erforderlich. Die Reinigung mittels der Druckluft der Druckluftdüsen 30 kann automatisch erfolgen, statt wie beim Stand der Technik von Hand.At the wall slot 10, compressed air nozzles 30 are arranged, the compressed air jet direction of which is directed toward the location of the spray device units 6 and at the same time from the outside inwards into the wall slot 10, in such a way that their compressed air jets blow off powder particles from the spray device units 6 and through the Blow the wall slot 10 into the cabin 2. The compressed air nozzles 30 are supplied with compressed air at least when the spray device units 6 are led out of the cabin 2, so that they are then automatically cleaned by the compressed air and the powder blown off by them is blown into the cabin 2. This not only cleans the spray device units 6, but also prevents powder particles outside the cabin 2 from settling on external objects. If desired, compressed air can also be blown from the compressed air nozzles 30 in the aforementioned manner against the spray device units 6 and through the cabin gap 10 into the cabin 2, while objects 8 are coated with powder. It is important, however, to blow off the spray coating device 6 whenever it is moved out of the cabin 2. For a powder change, cleaning of the spray device units 6 by hand and contamination of objects outside the cabin are avoided. This significantly speeds up the powder change and less work is required. The cleaning by means of the compressed air of the compressed air nozzles 30 can take place automatically instead of by hand as in the prior art.

Die Druckluft-Strahlrichtung der Druckluftdüsen 30 ist in den Zeichnungen durch Pfeile 32 angegeben.The compressed air jet direction of the compressed air nozzles 30 is indicated in the drawings by arrows 32.

Die Druckluftblasdüsen 30 können entsprechend Fig. 1 und 2 an der Kabine 2 oder an einer außerhalb der Kabine 2 angeordneten Vorrichtung befestigt werden. Beispielsweise wäre ihre Befestigung auch an der Positioniervorrichtung 4 möglich.The compressed air blowing nozzles 30 can be attached to the cabin 2 or to a device arranged outside the cabin 2, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. For example, they could also be attached to the positioning device 4.
