Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrostatic powder coating apparatus.
- Such a powder coating system is for example from the EP-B-0 200 681 known. While the shape of this known cabin has greatly improved the collection and suction of powder residues in relation to the prior art, in the course of creating such installations, there has been a need to improve both the accessibility of such cabins and the efficiency of powder recycling continue to increase.
- a coating system according to the preamble of claim 1 is known, fall in the powder residues by gratings over two channels in each case a larger channel.
- a gully cover which is hinged to a hinge.
- the suction device In the electrostatic powder coating system according to Figures 1-3 one recognizes the cabin 1, the suction device with the suction tube 2, which opens into the cyclone 3, and connected to the cyclone powder container 4, from which the powder passes through a powder line 7 to the automatic spray guns 5 or to the handsets 6.
- the suction device In professional circles, the suction device, since it contains filters, also called absolute filter or postfilter.
- the cabin 1 can, as according to the European patent mentioned above, consist of electrically non-conductive material and have the same or similar cleaning system, as described in this patent.
- the coating organs such as automatic or manually operated spray guns, are assumed to be known, which also applies to the suction tube, the cyclone and the powder container with the powder feed and the line 7 between cyclone and powder container applies.
- Fig. 1 can be seen also narrower and wider bushings 8 and openings 9, the narrower passages 8 are provided for the automatic spraying devices, which are arranged on a working platform, and the larger openings 9 for a manual pre resp.
- Post-processing are provided by means of a hand-operated spray gun.
- the end faces 10 and 11 of the cabin can, as according to the cited patent, be designed as a two-leaf doors having an opening.
- the cabin may also have only passages for the workpieces, i. the cabin can be made without moving parts such as gates.
- the cabin has a V-shaped lower part 12, to which the collecting channel 13 adjoins downward, which has a rectangular cross-section in this embodiment.
- the channel bottom 14 rises obliquely from the connection 15 of the suction tube to the front, resulting in a uniform suction power over the entire length of the cabin.
- the suction channel seen from above, has a variable width, wherein the channel widened from the suction tube extends forward, but this version has not been proven.
- Fig. 5 It can be seen that the collecting channel 13 is closed at the front by a plate 23 and also that the clear height of the collecting channel front is much lower than when connecting the suction tube, see Fig. 4 ,
- the collecting channel 13 is closed by longitudinally supported on brackets 16 bottom plates, as shown in the Fig. 1 and 2 is apparent.
- the bottom plate 17 is shown in a view from above and in section.
- This bottom plate is made of a suitable, electrically non-conductive plastic material and has, for example, a length of 1200 mm, a width of 500 mm and a thickness of 20 mm.
- the floor panels may have other dimensions and be made of a different material.
- the walk-in floor panels are designed so stable that they are able to carry the weight of an operator, the specified dimensions meet this condition readily.
- a bottom plate has slots 18 on both longitudinal sides, intermediate slots 19 on both transverse sides, and additional transverse slots 20 in the interior of the base plate.
- the transverse slots 20 are not uniformly distributed over the plate, or on the various plates, but they occur frequently at the points 5 of the automatic spray guns and less frequently at the points 6 of manual processing.
- the longitudinal slots 18 play a greater role than the transverse slots 19 and 20, which can also be arranged obliquely to the longitudinal axis.
- the transverse or slanted slots can be through a few openings or optionally be replaced by an opening in a plate, or each in a plurality of plates.
- the total opening area of the slots results in a flow velocity of the exhaust air produced by the post-filter, which allows maximum powder recycling.
- a desired flow velocity of 16 m / s and an exhaust air volume of 4,444 m 3 / s results in a total opening area for the slots of 0.278 m 2 .
- Such an arrangement of the suction slots in a bottom plate and the arrangement of the bottom plates according to the Fig. 1 and 2 enable a homogeneous, uniform and optimal extraction of the powder residues over the entire length of the cabin during operation, and this with high suction power.
- Fig. 4 possible to set the bottom plate perpendicular and hold in the holding part 21 of the holder 16 in a vertical position, or possibly remove completely. In the folded down state it lies on the support member 22. It is also possible to attach hinges at the location of the holding part.

In der elektrostatischen Pulverbeschichtungsanlage gemäss den
Die Kabine 1 kann, wie gemäss der eingangs erwähnten europäischen Patentschrift, aus elektrisch nichtleitendem Material bestehen und eine gleiche oder ähnliche Reinigungsanlage aufweisen, wie in dieser Patentschrift beschrieben. Die Beschichtungsorgane, wie automatische oder handbetriebene Spritzpistolen, werden als bekannt vorausgesetzt, was auch auf das Absaugrohr, den Zyklon sowie den Pulverbehälter mit der Pulverzuführung und die Leitung 7 zwischen Zyklon und Pulverbehälter zutrifft. Im Schnitt von
Die Stirnseiten 10 und 11 der Kabine können, wie gemäss eingangs zitierter Patentschrift, als zweiflüglige Tore ausgebildet sein, die eine Öffnung aufweisen. Die Kabine kann jedoch auch nur Durchlässe für die Werkstücke aufweisen, d.h. die Kabine kann ohne bewegliche Teile wie Tore hergestellt sein.The end faces 10 and 11 of the cabin can, as according to the cited patent, be designed as a two-leaf doors having an opening. However, the cabin may also have only passages for the workpieces, i. the cabin can be made without moving parts such as gates.
Gemäss
Der Sammelkanal 13 wird durch längs auf Halterungen 16 abgestützte Bodenplatten abgeschlossen, wie dies aus den
Um eine maximale Absaugung der Pulverrückstände zu gewährleisten, die nicht gleichmässig über den ganzen Kabinenboden verteilt, sondern massiert an den Orten der automatischen Sprühpistolen und weniger konzentriert an den Stellen der manuellen Vor- oder Nachbehandlung anfallen, sind verschiedene Schlitze und Schlitzanordnungen in der Bodenplatte, bzw. in den Bodenplatten angebracht. So weist eine Bodenplatte an beiden Längsseiten Schlitze 18, an beiden Querseiten Zwischenschlitze 19 sowie im Innern der Bodenplatte zusätzliche, quergerichtete Schlitze 20 auf. Die quergerichteten Schlitze 20 sind nicht gleichmässig über die Platte, bzw. über die verschiedenen Platten verteilt, sondern sie treten gehäuft an den Stellen 5 der automatischen Spritzpistolen und weniger gehäuft an den Stellen 6 der manuellen Bearbeitung auf.In order to ensure a maximum extraction of powder residues, which are not uniformly distributed over the entire cabin floor, but massaged in the places of the automatic spray guns and concentrated less concentrated at the points of manual pre- or post-treatment, various slots and slot arrangements in the bottom plate, or . mounted in the floor panels. Thus, a bottom plate has
Dabei spielen für die homogene Absaugung über die ganze Kabinenlänge die längsgerichteten Schlitze 18 eine grössere Rolle als die quergerichteten Schlitze 19 und 20, die auch schräg zur Längsachse angeordnet sein können. Ausserdem, besonders bei kleineren Kabinen, können die quergerichteten, bzw. schäggerichteten Schlitze durch wenige Öffnungen oder gegebenenfalls durch eine Öffnung in einer Platte, bzw. je in mehreren Platten, ersetzt werden.In this case, for the homogeneous suction over the entire length of the cabin, the
Bei der Auslegung der Schlitze, bzw. von deren Häufigkeit und Öffnungsbreite, ist es von Vorteil sie so auszulegen, dass die Gesamtöffnungsfläche der Schlitze eine Anströmgeschwindigkeit der vom Nachfilter erzeugten Abluftmenge ergibt, die eine maximale Pulverrückführung ermöglicht. Bei einer erwünschten Anströmgeschwindigkeit von 16 m/s und einer Abluftmenge von 4.444 m3/s ergibt sich eine Gesamtöffnungsfläche für die Schlitze von 0.278 m2. Das heisst, dass in einer vereinfachten Berechnung die Abluftmenge in m3/s, geteilt durch die erwünschte, optimale Anströmgeschwindigkeit in m/s die gewünschte Gesamtfläche der Schlitze eines Steges ergibt.In the design of the slots, and their frequency and opening width, it is advantageous to interpret them so that the total opening area of the slots results in a flow velocity of the exhaust air produced by the post-filter, which allows maximum powder recycling. With a desired flow velocity of 16 m / s and an exhaust air volume of 4,444 m 3 / s results in a total opening area for the slots of 0.278 m 2 . This means that, in a simplified calculation, the amount of exhaust air in m 3 / s, divided by the desired, optimum flow velocity in m / s, results in the desired total area of the slots of a web.

Für die Reinigung des Sammelkanals ist es erforderlich, die Bodenplatten zu entfernen. Dabei ist es gemäss
