Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、送電線鉄塔、電波塔、標識塔及び公告塔などの金属製の塔を静電塗装により塗装する方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術とその課題】
屋外に長期間曝される送電線鉄塔などは、長寿命化及び美観性付与のために、通常、塗料が塗装されている。従来、これらの鉄塔の塗装は、足場丸太などで鉄塔の周囲に枠を組み、それに塗料飛散防止用ネットを取り付けて鉄塔を覆い、塗装作業者によりそのネット内部で刷け塗り又はローラー塗装などにより行われていた。
しかしながら、従来のかかる塗装方法は、刷毛又はローラーを用いての塗装であるために、効率が十分でなく塗装に長時間を要し、しかも狭隘部分及び背面部分の塗装が困難であるという欠陥を有している。刷毛などの塗装用具及び塗料缶を持つと両手がふさがるために、高所での作業に危険性が伴うことがある。さらに、均一な膜厚で、仕上り外観にすぐれた塗面に塗装するには長年の経験が必要とされており、作業者の技能によって仕上がりにバラツキが生じる。
【0003】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の目的は、送電線鉄塔などの鉄塔の塗装における上記した種々の欠陥を解消することであり、鋭意研究を行なった結果、鉄塔の近接周囲の一部又は全部を導電性網目状ネットで治具を介して覆い、そのネットで囲まれた内部で、静電塗装方式により鉄塔を塗装することにより目的が達成できることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。
すなわち、本発明は、鉄塔の近接周囲の一部又は全部を導電性網目状ネットで治具を介して覆い、そのネットで囲まれた内部で、静電塗装方式により鉄塔を塗装することを特徴とする鉄塔の静電塗装方法に関する。
【0004】
以下に、本発明による鉄塔の静電塗装方法(以下、「本方法」という)に関して具体的に説明する。
本方法における鉄塔とは、山形鋼、H形鋼、I型鋼及び鋼管材(中空パイプ)などの導電性金属を用いてトラス(truss)構造に組み立てた構築物であり、例えば、電力を送るための送電線鉄塔、東京タワーなどの電波を受発信するための電波塔、大阪通天閣などの公告塔、飛行場などに設置されている標識塔及びモニュメントなどがあげられる。これらの鉄塔の高さは特に制限されず、2m以上、好ましくは3〜200mの範囲内が適している。
本方法で使用する網目状ネットは、静電塗装機から噴霧された塗料微粒子が被塗物(鉄塔表面)に塗着せず、外部に飛散するのを防止すると共に、この未塗着の塗料微粒子をネットに吸着させてネット内部での塗装環境を向上させるのに有効である。このネットは合成樹脂繊維を網目状に編んだシートである。合成樹脂の材質として、例えば、ポリエチレン、ナイロン、テフロン(デュポン社の登録商標)樹脂、ポリエステル、アクリル樹脂などのそれ自体既知のものがあげられる。ネットの網目の大きさは、通常、30〜100メッシュの範囲内が適している。
【0005】
また、これらの網目状ネットは導電性を有していることが必要であり、その程度は、絶縁抵抗値を基準に0.5〜1.0MΩ/500Vの範囲内が適している。ネットに導電性を付与する方法として、例えば、ネットを構成する合成樹脂繊維に導電性物質(例えば、カーボン、グラファイトなど)を混入させるか、又は導電性塗料をネットに塗装するなどがあげられる。このうち、導電性塗料を塗装することが、ネット自体の強度を低下させることがないのでより好ましい。
ネットに塗装する導電性塗料としては、ポリエステル樹脂、アルキド樹脂、エポキシ樹脂などの基体樹脂に導電性物質(例えば、カーボン、グラファイトなど)を含有させたそれ自体既知の有機溶剤系又は水系の塗料があげられる。ネットへの導電性塗料の塗装は、噴霧塗装、浸漬塗装などにより、ネットの網目が塞がれないように行なうことが好ましい。
【0006】
鉄塔の近接周囲の一部又は全部を覆うにあたり、導電性網目状ネットは一重でも差し支えないが、複数枚重ねて使用することが未塗着塗料粒子の外部への飛散防止及び未塗着塗料粒子を効率よく吸着する上で好ましく、特に二重又は三重が適している。
網目状ネットの個々の大きさ及び形状は特に制限されず、例えば、巾1.8m、長さ5m〜10mの四角形とし、これを基準に、鉄塔の大きさ、形状、高さなどに応じて適宜につなぎあわせて使用することができる。ネットのつなぎ合せは、ホック式、ひも式、マジックテープ(株式会社クラレの登録商標)式、インシュロック式、インターロック式などがあげられる。このうち、ネットの端部を重ねてつなぎあわせるインターロック式が隙間なくつなぎ合わせることができるので、未塗着塗料粒子が外部に飛散防止するのを効率良く防止できるのでより好ましい。
【0007】
導電性ネットが風圧などにより鉄塔に接触すると塗装作業に支障をきたし、また、未乾燥塗膜に触れると塗膜がネットに付着し、仕上り外観を低下させることがあるので、本方法では、導電性ネットが風圧などにより鉄塔に接触することがないように覆うことが好ましい。
導電性網目状ネットが鉄塔に接触しないように覆うために治具を使用することが望ましい。治具の構造は、主に鉄塔の支柱及び地線部などのトラス構造部に固定する固定部とこの固定部から伸びる腕金部とから構成されている。固定部は鉄塔に容易に脱着可能な構造のものが好ましく、鉄塔に固定する方法として、ボルトの締め付け、又はクランプ式(例えばキャッチクランプなど)などが適している。腕金部の長さは鉄塔と導電性ネットとの距離が約50cm〜1mになるような長さであることが好ましい。この腕金部自体は、鉄塔の各々の規模、形態などに適合できるように、伸縮自在、方向移動可能又は折り畳み可能な機構であれば好ましい。また、腕金部の端部には網目状ネットの取付けを容易にするための取付け部材を設けておくことが適している。かかる治具の素材は強度面から、FRPや強化プラスチック製であることが好ましいが金属製であっても感電を防止するための絶縁被覆を施したものであれば使用することが可能である。さらに、治具の表面は、絶縁性であることが塗装時での感電を防止するために有効である。さらに、治具は鉄塔への取付け、運搬などの作業を効率よく行なうために軽量であることが適している。
【0008】
鉄塔に塗料を塗装するための静電塗装機はそれ自体は既知のものが使用できる。具体的には、静電エアスプレイ方式、静電エアレススプレイ方式、静電エアエアレススプレイ方式などが好適であり、これらの塗装機は静電塗装ガン、エアコンプレッサー、塗料圧送用プランジャーポンプ及びコントロールユニットから構成されている。静電塗装時の直流印加電圧はー30〜−80KV、塗料圧送圧力は2〜8MPa、アシストエア圧は0.2〜0.8MPaの範囲内が適している。塗料圧送用プランジャーポンプの仕様は、吸い込み方式がダイレクトサクション式、最大圧力12MPa、最大吐出量6リットル/分が好ましい。
【0009】
スプレーガン先端から被塗面(鉄塔部)までの距離は20〜40cm、塗装膜厚は乾燥塗膜で20〜100μmが好ましい。塗料及びエア圧送用のエアコンプレッサーと静電塗装機とはエア圧送パイプで連結されており、その距離は通常5〜30mであるため、鉄塔の高さがこれ以上になると塗装が困難になるために、塗料タンク、塗料圧送用プランジャーポンプなどの機材を鉄塔上部に収納ボックスなどにより吊り上げることが必要である。
鉄塔に塗装する塗料としては既知の塗料を使用することができる。具体的には、塩化ゴム系、エポキシ樹脂系、ポリウレタン樹脂系、アルキド樹脂系、ポリエステル樹脂系、アクリル樹脂系、アクリルシリコン系、フッ素樹脂系などの有機溶剤型又は水性型塗料があげられる。これらの塗料の静電塗装時の固形分含有率は30〜70重量%、塗装時での塗料の電気抵抗値は0.3〜1.0MΩが好ましい。これらは、下塗塗料、中塗り塗料及び上塗り塗料として使用することができ、鉄塔の目的に応じて、これらから適宜選択して、単層塗膜、2層以上の複層塗膜を形成することも可能である。
【0010】
鉄塔の一部もしくは全部が導電性網目状ネットで覆われ、その内部で鉄塔に塗料を静電塗装する本方法において、塗装機から噴霧された塗料微粒子のうち、鉄塔に塗着しなかった未塗着微粒子の大部分は導電性ネットに電気的に吸引されるが、さらに浮遊し、やがて地表に落下するものも存在する。そこで、導電性ネットで囲まれた鉄塔内部の空気を吸引するための吸引装置を取り付けることが好ましい。具体的には、地上部にはフィルターなどを装着したダクト付きの集塵装置を設置し、このダクトの一方の開放口は導電性ネットで囲まれた鉄塔内部に達しており、集塵装置が作動すると開放口付近の空気が吸引されて集塵装置で浄化されて外部に放出されるような機構になっている。つまり、その装置を設置することにより、導電性ネットで囲まれた鉄塔内部の空気中に浮遊している未塗着の塗料微粒子が吸引され、集塵装置で捕獲され、清浄な空気のみが外部に放出されるので、未塗着の塗料微粒子の回収率が一層向上する。この装置を設置することにより、導電性ネットで囲まれた鉄塔内部における空気の流れが生じ、未塗着の塗料微粒子の吸引率が向上する。
【0011】
本方法は、以下の工程の順に行なうことが好ましいが、この工程のみに制限されることはない。
工程1:鉄塔の適宜の部分に導電性網目状ネットを取り付けるための治具を装着する。装着する箇所は、下部は一度に全面を被うことが可能であるが、上部は送電線路の停止条件により異なり、活線部分から安全な離隔が保てる位置に装着する。
工程2:治具の腕金部先端部に導電性ネットを取り付けて、鉄塔の一部又は全部を覆う。覆う部分は鉄塔の種類、形状、規模に応じて任意に選択できる。例えば、送電鉄塔では、送電を部分的に停止した部分、例えば、上部片側、上部全体又は塔全体(非活線部)を覆うことが好ましい。送電鉄塔以外の電波塔、広告塔、標識塔、モニュメントなどは全面を覆ってから、塗装することが好ましい。
工程3:鉄塔表面は以下の内容にて素地調整する。具体的には、▲1▼第2種ケレンはデスクサンダー、グラインダーなどの電動工具により、▲2▼第3、4種ケレンはサンドペーパー、ワイヤブラシなどにより処理する。▲3▼尚、さび、旧塗膜、塵埃などはネットで捕獲され、塔外に飛散することはない。
【0012】
工程4:静電塗装による塗装。塔上の塗装作業者は塗装工事用A種安全帯を着用し、鉄塔の昇降及び塗装作業には塗装工事用ハイスロー(3m)、ロリップ付き移動ロープ(3〜5m)を使用することが好ましい。垂直ガイドロープは154KV以下では各脚に1本、塔体内に通い綱を1本配置することが好ましく、275KV以上では垂直ガイドロープを各脚に1本の他に、各面中央に1本配置することが好ましい。
鉄塔と導電性網目状ネットとの間隔を保つための枠組み材には脱着可能で、鉄塔の規模や異なる構造のものに対応が可能な骨組みを利用することを原則とし、従来の長い足場丸太は使用せず、必要に応じて伸縮性パイプを鉄塔の支柱間に取り付けておくことが好ましい。このパイプは使用時において足場丸太より短いので取り扱いが便利で、収納時には縮めることができるので大きな面積を必要とせず好ましい。
【0013】
アースされている被塗物(鉄塔)を陽極、静電塗装機を陰極として、その間に直流高電圧を印加すると両極間に電界が形成され、静電塗装機先端の霧化装置から霧化された塗料微粒子はマイナスに帯電して、プラスの被塗物に吸引されて鉄塔表面に塗膜が形成される。塗膜はトラス構造の鉄部の裏側にも形成されるので、作業性が改善された。そして、被塗物に塗着しなかった塗料微粒子はそのまま飛散し、導電性ネットに達し、そこで吸引されて回収することができる。ネットが非導電性であると塗料微粒子は吸引されにくく、ネットで囲まれた空間を長時間浮遊するので、作業者にとって安全衛生上好ましくなく、しかも視界が低下するので塗装作業の効率が低下する。
工程5:塗装が完了し、塗膜が乾燥硬化してから、導電性網目状ネット、治具、伸縮性足場などを取り外すことによって本方法が完成する。
【0014】
【実施例】
本発明に関する実施例について説明をする。
実施例1
以下、図1および図2を参照し、本発明の実施例について説明する。
高さが30mの66KV地線1条鉄塔について、片回線停止を想定して、静電塗装法により塗装を行なった。まず、鉄塔1の地線部、腕金部先端、鉄塔支柱などの適宜な箇所にネット取付け用治具2a〜2lの固定部を取りつけた。治具2a〜2lの腕金部の長さは50cm〜1mである。次に、取りつけた治具2a〜2lの腕金部先端に、大きさ1.8m×5mの導電性網目ネットを、ネット間で隙間が生じないようにインターロック式でつなぎ合わせながら取りつけた。使用したネットはポリエチレン製繊維をラッセル編みしたもの(網目の大きさは約50メッシュ)であり、導電性カーボン入り塗料を塗装して導電性が付与されており(絶縁抵抗値は0.7MΩ/500V)、二重にして使用した。この導電性ネットで鉄塔1のすべてを覆った(3aおよび3b)。
【0015】
導電性ネット3aおよび3bで覆われた内部で、鉄塔表面のサビ、旧塗膜のフクレ、ワレ部分、汚れ部分などをデスクサンダー、ワイヤブラシ、ヘラなどを使用して除去した。この作業で飛散したサビ、塗膜片などは下部に落下し、回収され、ネットの外部に飛散することは殆どなかった。
静電塗装装置は静電塗装ガン、電動プランジャーポンプ4及びコントロールユニット5から構成されている。静電塗装ガンの仕様は、電圧はDC−60Kボルト、塗料圧力5〜6MPa、アシストエア圧力0.2〜0.4MPa、ケーブル長さ30mである。電動プランジャーポンプ4はダイレクトサクション式で、最大圧力12MPa、重量50Kgである。コントロールユニット5は印加電圧DC−60KV、出力調整は切り替え式、遮断電流範囲30〜150μA、入力電圧AC100V±10%、重量5kgである。
【0016】
塗料として、エポキシ樹脂系塗料「エポマリンGX」(関西ペイント(株)製、商品名、下塗り塗料)及びウレタン塗料「レタン6000」(関西ペイント(株)製、商品名、上塗り塗料)を使用した。これらの電気抵抗値は0.3〜1.0MΩである。
電動プランジャーポンプ4及びコントロールユニット5を設置し、塗装作業者は静電塗装ガンを持って、ステップボルトを昇り、導電性ネット3aおよび3bで覆われた内部の鉄塔の塗装作業時には斜材、水平材などを足場にして塔内を移動し、ガン先から被塗面までの距離が約25cmになるようにして鉄塔1に静電塗装を行なった。作業者の経験が少なくても、塗装が困難とされている塔体火打ち交差部、腕金先端部、ボルト集中箇所などにも容易に塗装することができた。塗装膜厚は下塗及び上塗りはそれぞれ40μm程度である。塗装された塗膜の膜厚はバラツキがなくほぼ一定で平滑性も良好であった。
鉄塔1への治具2a〜2lの取付け及び外しは従来の足場丸太に比べて作業が簡素化され、短時間で行なうことができた。静電塗装により、従来の刷毛塗りに比べ、作業時間が約3分の1に短縮された。塗料の供給は塔高が30mを超えると低下するので、その場合は、塗装機を上部に移動させることが好ましい。
静電塗装により噴霧され鉄塔1に塗着しなかった塗料粒子は、その殆どが導電性ネット3aおよび3bに塗着するので、ネット3aおよび3bで囲まれた内部は視界がよく、塗装作業性を低下させることはない。
【0017】
【発明の効果】
1.導電性ネットで覆われた中で静電塗装を行なうので、飛散した未塗着塗料粒子は、空気中で長時間滞留することがなくすみやかに被塗物に塗着及びネットに吸引されるので、外部には殆ど飛散することがなく、しかも塗装作業が円滑に行なえ、かつ安全性にすぐれている。
2.静電塗装方式であるため、刷毛塗りやローラー塗装に比べて、熟練性を必要とせず、塗装時間を短縮することができ、狭隘部にも容易に塗装することができた。さらに、1回の塗装で厚膜に塗装できるので塗装工数の削減が可能となり、しかも膜厚が均一で、仕上り外観にすぐれた塗膜に仕上げることができた。
3.導電性網目状ネットを取り付けるための治具は、脱着が容易で、かつ繰り返して使用することができ、規模や形状が異なる鉄塔にも容易に対応することができ、しかも従来の足場丸太に比べ小型であるので塔内での塗装作業者の動きが円滑となり塗装作業性が向上した。
4.導電性ネットで覆われた内部で静電塗装を行なうので、飛散した未塗着塗料粒子の大部分が捕集され、塔の外部に漏れることは殆どなく、塔内で浮遊することも殆ど認められない。
図1において、エアコンプレッサー6および発電機7も静電塗装装置の構成要素であり、吸気ダクト8および吸塵機9はネット内の浮遊未塗着塗料微粒子を吸引して浄化する集塵装置の構成要素である。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method of coating a metal tower such as a transmission line tower, a radio tower, a sign tower, and a notice tower by electrostatic coating.
[0002]
[Prior art and its problems]
Transmission line towers and the like that are exposed to the outdoors for a long period of time are usually coated with a paint in order to extend the life and impart aesthetics. Conventionally, these steel towers have been painted by using a scaffolding log or the like to form a frame around the steel tower and then attaching a paint splash prevention net to cover the steel tower. It was done.
However, since the conventional coating method is painting using a brush or a roller, the efficiency is not sufficient, and it takes a long time to paint, and it is difficult to paint the narrow part and the back part. Have. Holding hands with paint tools such as brushes and paint cans can be dangerous when working at heights because both hands are blocked. Furthermore, many years of experience are required to paint a coated surface with a uniform film thickness and an excellent finished appearance, and the finish varies depending on the skill of the operator.
[0003]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned various defects in the painting of steel towers such as power transmission line towers, and as a result of extensive research, a part or all of the vicinity of the steel towers is formed with a conductive mesh net. It was found that the object can be achieved by coating a steel tower by an electrostatic coating method in an interior covered with a jig and surrounded by a net, and the present invention has been completed.
That is, the present invention is characterized in that a part or all of the vicinity of the steel tower is covered with a conductive mesh net through a jig, and the steel tower is painted by an electrostatic coating method inside the net surrounded by the jig. The present invention relates to a method for electrostatic coating of steel towers.
[0004]
The steel tower electrostatic coating method (hereinafter referred to as “the present method”) according to the present invention will be specifically described below.
The steel tower in this method is a structure assembled into a truss structure using conductive metals such as angle steel, H-shape steel, I-shape steel and steel pipe material (hollow pipe), for example, for sending electric power Examples include radio towers for receiving and transmitting radio waves from power transmission towers, Tokyo tower, etc., notice towers such as Osaka Tsutenkaku, sign towers and monuments installed at airfields, etc. The height of these steel towers is not particularly limited, and 2 m or more, preferably in the range of 3 to 200 m is suitable.
The mesh net used in this method prevents the paint fine particles sprayed from the electrostatic coating machine from being applied to the object to be coated (the surface of the steel tower) and scattered to the outside. It is effective to improve the coating environment inside the net by adsorbing it to the net. This net is a sheet of synthetic resin fibers knitted in a mesh shape. Examples of the material of the synthetic resin include known ones such as polyethylene, nylon, Teflon (registered trademark of DuPont), polyester, and acrylic resin. The mesh size of the net is usually in the range of 30 to 100 mesh.
[0005]
Further, these mesh nets are required to have conductivity, and the degree thereof is suitably in the range of 0.5 to 1.0 MΩ / 500 V based on the insulation resistance value. As a method for imparting conductivity to the net, for example, a conductive material (for example, carbon, graphite, etc.) is mixed in the synthetic resin fiber constituting the net, or a conductive paint is applied to the net. Among these, it is more preferable to apply a conductive paint because the strength of the net itself is not lowered.
As the conductive paint to be applied to the net, known organic solvent-based or water-based paints containing a conductive substance (for example, carbon, graphite, etc.) in a base resin such as polyester resin, alkyd resin, and epoxy resin. can give. It is preferable to apply the conductive coating to the net so that the net of the net is not blocked by spray coating, dip coating, or the like.
[0006]
In order to cover part or all of the vicinity of the steel tower, there may be a single conductive mesh net, but it is possible to use multiple layers to prevent scattering of uncoated paint particles to the outside and uncoated paint particles. Is preferable in terms of efficient adsorption, and double or triple is particularly suitable.
The size and shape of the mesh net are not particularly limited. For example, it is a square having a width of 1.8 m and a length of 5 m to 10 m. Based on this, the size, shape, height, etc. of the steel tower are used. They can be used together as appropriate. Examples of the net joining method include a hook type, a string type, a magic tape (registered trademark of Kuraray Co., Ltd.) type, an insulation lock type, and an interlock type. Among these, the interlock type that connects the end portions of the nets in an overlapping manner can be connected without gaps, and therefore it is more preferable because it can efficiently prevent the uncoated paint particles from being scattered outside.
[0007]
If the conductive net comes into contact with the steel tower due to wind pressure, etc., the coating operation will be hindered, and if the wet paint film is touched, the paint film may adhere to the net and reduce the finished appearance. It is preferable to cover so that the sex net does not contact the steel tower due to wind pressure or the like.
It is desirable to use a jig to cover the conductive mesh net so that it does not contact the steel tower. The structure of the jig is mainly composed of a fixing portion that is fixed to a truss structure portion such as a tower column and a ground wire portion, and an armrest portion that extends from the fixing portion. The fixing portion preferably has a structure that can be easily attached to and detached from the steel tower. As a method of fixing to the steel tower, bolt fastening or a clamp type (such as a catch clamp) is suitable. The length of the armrest is preferably such that the distance between the steel tower and the conductive net is about 50 cm to 1 m. The arm metal part itself is preferably a mechanism that can be expanded, contracted, moved, or folded so that it can be adapted to the scale, form, etc. of the steel tower. In addition, it is suitable to provide an attachment member for facilitating attachment of the mesh net at the end of the arm metal part. The material of the jig is preferably made of FRP or reinforced plastic from the viewpoint of strength, but even if it is made of metal, it can be used as long as it is provided with an insulating coating for preventing electric shock. Furthermore, it is effective for the surface of the jig to be insulative to prevent electric shock during painting. Furthermore, it is suitable that the jig is lightweight in order to efficiently perform operations such as attachment to a steel tower and transportation.
[0008]
A known electrostatic coating machine for coating a steel tower with paint can be used. Specifically, an electrostatic air spray system, an electrostatic airless spray system, an electrostatic airless spray system, etc. are suitable, and these coating machines include an electrostatic coating gun, an air compressor, a plunger pump for controlling paint pressure, and a control. It is composed of units. It is suitable that the DC applied voltage during electrostatic coating is -30 to -80 KV, the paint pressure is 2 to 8 MPa, and the assist air pressure is 0.2 to 0.8 MPa. As for the specifications of the plunger pump for paint pressure feeding, the suction method is preferably a direct suction method, a maximum pressure of 12 MPa, and a maximum discharge amount of 6 liters / minute.
[0009]
The distance from the tip of the spray gun to the surface to be coated (steel tower) is preferably 20 to 40 cm, and the coating film thickness is preferably 20 to 100 μm as a dry coating film. The air compressor for paint and air pumping and the electrostatic coating machine are connected by an air pumping pipe, and the distance is usually 5 to 30 m. Therefore, if the height of the steel tower exceeds this level, painting becomes difficult. In addition, it is necessary to suspend equipment such as a paint tank and a plunger pump for paint feeding on the upper part of the tower with a storage box.
A known paint can be used as a paint to be applied to the steel tower. Specific examples include organic solvent-type or water-based paints such as chlorinated rubber, epoxy resin, polyurethane resin, alkyd resin, polyester resin, acrylic resin, acrylic silicon, and fluororesin. The solid content of these paints during electrostatic coating is preferably 30 to 70% by weight, and the electrical resistance value of the paint during coating is preferably 0.3 to 1.0 MΩ. These can be used as undercoating paints, intermediate coatings and top coatings, and according to the purpose of the tower, they are appropriately selected from these to form a single-layer coating film or two or more multilayer coating films Is also possible.
[0010]
In this method, in which part or all of the steel tower is covered with a conductive mesh net and the paint is electrostatically applied to the steel tower inside the tower, of the fine paint particles sprayed from the coating machine, it has not been applied to the steel tower. Most of the coated fine particles are electrically attracted to the conductive net, but there are also those that float further and eventually fall to the ground surface. Therefore, it is preferable to attach a suction device for sucking the air inside the steel tower surrounded by the conductive net. Specifically, a dust collector with a duct fitted with a filter or the like is installed on the ground, and one opening of this duct reaches the inside of the steel tower surrounded by a conductive net. When activated, the air in the vicinity of the opening is sucked, purified by the dust collector, and released to the outside. In other words, by installing the device, unpainted paint particles floating in the air inside the tower surrounded by the conductive net are sucked and captured by the dust collector, and only clean air is external Therefore, the recovery rate of uncoated paint fine particles is further improved. By installing this apparatus, an air flow is generated inside the steel tower surrounded by the conductive net, and the suction rate of uncoated paint fine particles is improved.
[0011]
This method is preferably performed in the order of the following steps, but is not limited to this step alone.
Process 1: The jig | tool for attaching a conductive mesh net | network to the appropriate part of a steel tower is mounted | worn. The lower part can cover the entire surface at the same time, but the upper part depends on the stopping condition of the transmission line, and is mounted at a position where a safe separation can be maintained from the live line part.
Step 2: A conductive net is attached to the tip of the arm part of the jig to cover part or all of the steel tower. The covering portion can be arbitrarily selected according to the type, shape, and scale of the steel tower. For example, in the power transmission tower, it is preferable to cover a part where power transmission is partially stopped, for example, the upper one side, the entire upper part, or the entire tower (non-live line part). It is preferable to coat the radio tower, advertising tower, sign tower, monument and the like other than the power transmission tower after covering the entire surface.
Process 3: The base of the steel tower is adjusted as follows. Specifically, (1) the second type keren is processed by an electric tool such as a desk sander or grinder, and (2) the third and fourth type kelen is processed by a sandpaper, a wire brush or the like. (3) It should be noted that rust, old paint film, dust, etc. are captured on the net and do not scatter outside the tower.
[0012]
Process 4: Painting by electrostatic painting. It is preferable that a painting worker on the tower wears a Class A safety belt for painting work, and uses a high throw (3 m) for painting work and a moving rope (3 to 5 m) with a lip for elevating and painting the steel tower. One vertical guide rope should be placed on each leg for 154KV or less, and one rope going through the tower is preferred. For 275KV or more, one vertical guide rope for each leg and one for the center of each surface. It is preferable to do.
In principle, it is necessary to use a framework that can be removed and attached to the frame material to maintain the distance between the steel tower and the conductive mesh net, and that can accommodate the scale of the steel tower and different structures. It is preferable not to use and to attach an elastic pipe between the columns of the steel tower as necessary. Since this pipe is shorter than the scaffold log when in use, it is convenient to handle and can be shrunk when stored, so it does not require a large area and is preferable.
[0013]
Using a grounded object (steel tower) as an anode and an electrostatic coating machine as a cathode, when a high DC voltage is applied between them, an electric field is formed between the two electrodes and atomized from the atomizer at the tip of the electrostatic coating machine. The fine paint particles are negatively charged and sucked by the positive object to be coated to form a coating film on the surface of the steel tower. Since the coating film is also formed on the back side of the iron part of the truss structure, the workability is improved. The fine paint particles that have not been applied to the object are scattered as they are, reach the conductive net, and can be sucked and collected there. If the net is non-conductive, the fine particles of paint are difficult to be sucked in and float in the space surrounded by the net for a long time, which is unfavorable for workers in terms of safety and hygiene. .
Step 5: After the coating is completed and the coating film is dry-cured, the method is completed by removing the conductive mesh net, the jig, the stretch scaffold, and the like.

【Example】
Examples relating to the present invention will be described.
Example 1
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
A 66KV ground wire single-strand tower with a height of 30m was painted by electrostatic coating method assuming a one-line stop. First, the fixing portions of the net mounting jigs 2a to 2l were attached to appropriate locations such as the ground wire portion, the end of the armature portion, and the steel tower support of the steel tower 1. The length of the brace part of the jigs 2a to 2l is 50 cm to 1 m. Next, a conductive mesh net having a size of 1.8 m × 5 m was attached to the tip of the arm part of each of the jigs 2a to 2l attached while being connected by an interlock type so as not to cause a gap between the nets. The net used is a raschel knitted polyethylene fiber (mesh size is about 50 mesh), and is given conductivity by applying a conductive carbon coating (insulation resistance is 0.7 MΩ / 500V), used in duplicate. All of the tower 1 was covered with this conductive net (3a and 3b).
[0015]
Inside the hood covered with the conductive nets 3a and 3b, rust on the surface of the steel tower, blisters, cracks, dirt, etc. on the old paint film were removed using a desk sander, wire brush, spatula or the like. Rust, coating film pieces, etc. scattered by this work fell to the lower part and were collected, and were hardly scattered outside the net.
The electrostatic coating apparatus includes an electrostatic coating gun, an electric plunger pump 4 and a control unit 5. The specifications of the electrostatic coating gun are as follows: the voltage is DC-60K volts, the paint pressure is 5-6 MPa, the assist air pressure is 0.2-0.4 MPa, and the cable length is 30 m. The electric plunger pump 4 is a direct suction type and has a maximum pressure of 12 MPa and a weight of 50 kg. The control unit 5 has an applied voltage of DC-60 KV, an output adjustment of a switching type, a cutoff current range of 30 to 150 μA, an input voltage of AC 100 V ± 10%, and a weight of 5 kg.
[0016]
Epoxy resin paint “Epomarine GX” (trade name, undercoat paint manufactured by Kansai Paint Co., Ltd.) and urethane paint “Letane 6000” (trade name, top coat paint manufactured by Kansai Paint Co., Ltd.) were used as the paint. These electric resistance values are 0.3 to 1.0 MΩ.
The electric plunger pump 4 and the control unit 5 are installed, the painter raises the step bolt with an electrostatic paint gun, and the diagonal material during the painting work of the steel tower covered with the conductive nets 3a and 3b. The iron tower 1 was electrostatically coated so that the distance from the tip of the gun to the surface to be coated was about 25 cm, using a horizontal material or the like as a scaffold. Even without the experience of the operator, it was possible to easily paint tower cross-fired intersections, armature tips, bolt concentrating points, etc., where painting was difficult. The coating thickness is about 40 μm for each of the undercoat and the topcoat. The film thickness of the coated film was almost uniform with no variation and good smoothness.
The attachment and detachment of the jigs 2a to 2l to the steel tower 1 is simpler than the conventional scaffold log and can be performed in a short time. Electrostatic coating has shortened the work time by about one-third compared to conventional brush coating. Since the supply of paint decreases when the tower height exceeds 30 m, it is preferable to move the coating machine to the upper part.
Most of the paint particles sprayed by electrostatic coating and not applied to the steel tower 1 are applied to the conductive nets 3a and 3b. Therefore, the inside surrounded by the nets 3a and 3b has good visibility, and the painting workability is improved. Will not be reduced.
[0017]
【The invention's effect】
1. Since electrostatic coating is performed while covered with a conductive net, the scattered uncoated paint particles do not stay in the air for a long time and are immediately applied to the object and attracted to the net. In addition, it hardly scatters to the outside, and the painting work can be performed smoothly and is excellent in safety.
2. Because it is an electrostatic coating method, it does not require skill as compared with brush coating or roller coating, can reduce the coating time, and can easily paint narrow spaces. Furthermore, since it was possible to paint a thick film with a single coating, it was possible to reduce the number of coating steps, and the coating film had a uniform film thickness and an excellent finished appearance.
3. The jig for attaching the conductive mesh net is easy to attach and detach, can be used repeatedly, can easily cope with steel towers of different scales and shapes, and compared to conventional scaffold logs Because of its small size, the painter's movement in the tower was smooth and the paint workability was improved.
4). Since electrostatic coating is performed inside the conductive net, most of the scattered uncoated paint particles are collected, rarely leaking outside the tower, and almost free to float inside the tower. I can't.
In FIG. 1, an air compressor 6 and a generator 7 are also components of the electrostatic coating device, and an intake duct 8 and a dust suction device 9 are configured of a dust collecting device that sucks and purifies floating uncoated paint particles in the net. Is an element.
