DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a curtain type flow coater coating machine having an automatic flow rate control device. A conventional example is shown in FIG. That is, a circulation pump 2 driven by a motor 1 sends paint to a flow coater head 3, and the paint flows down from the flow coater head 3 in a so-called curtain style to the coated material that is transferred below the flow coater head 3. This is to apply paint to object 4. In this conventional example, in order to control the amount of paint applied to the object 4, the amount of paint accumulated in the measuring cup 8 is measured while measuring the measuring time with a stopwatch 9, for example. There are the so-called volumetric method and the so-called gravimetric method, in which paint is applied to the iron plate 10, which is a pseudo-coated object, and the weight before and after application is measured using a scale.In both cases, the measurement is performed manually and the paint is sent out from the circulation pump 2. The flow rate of the paint is adjusted by adjusting the flow rate regulating valve 11. However, this conventional example requires human labor to measure the flow rate and has poor flow rate adjustment accuracy.
The drawback was that a stable coating flow rate could not always be obtained.

The present invention will be explained in detail based on illustrated embodiments. The flow coater painting machine of the present invention has a circulation pump 2 driven by a motor 1, and a flow coater head 3.
In a flow coater painting machine that sends paint to the flow coater head 3 and applies the paint to a workpiece 4 transferred below the flow coater head 3, the flow rate of the paint sent from the circulation pump 2 to the flow coater head 3. A flowmeter 5 is provided to measure the flowmeter 5.
A comparison section 6 is provided which outputs a comparison signal P that compares the measured value with a preset flow rate set value, and detects this comparison signal P, and when the measured value is larger than the set value, the motor 1 of the circulation pump 2 is a control unit 7 which decreases the rotational speed of the motor 1 and increases the rotational speed of the motor 1 when the measured value is smaller than a set value to maintain a substantially constant flow rate of paint sent to the flow coater head 3;
Each part will be explained in more detail below. 12 is a paint tank, which is automatically filled with paint tank 1 by a paint replenishment pump 13.
Paint is replenished starting from 4 and the level is controlled at a constant level. Circulation pump 2 is paint tank 12
The paint is sent to the flow coater head 3, and the flow rate of the paint sent to the flow coater head 3 can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the rotation speed of the built-in induction motor 1. Circulation pump 2
A filter 16 and a flow meter 5 are provided in a connecting pipe 15 that connects the flow coater head 3 and the flow coater head 3. The flowmeter 5, which is an electromagnetic flowmeter, converts the measured value of the flow rate of paint into an analog voltage value, and this analog voltage value is recorded on the recorder 17. Further, this analog voltage value is sent to the A-D converter 18 constituting the comparator 6, converted into a digital value, and displayed on the flow rate display 19. On the other hand, the comparator 6 is equipped with a flow rate setting device 20 that allows the flow rate to be set in advance from the outside, and the set value is digitally displayed on the flow rate setting device 20. Then, the measured value and the set value are compared by the comparator 21, and a comparison signal P
Output. 22 is a flow rate abnormality alarm that issues an alarm when the flow rate becomes abnormally large or small. The control unit 7 to which the comparison signal P is input is
It consists of a motor rotation speed setting device 23 and a V-F converter 24, and the motor rotation speed setting device 23 receives the above comparison signal P.
When the measured value of the flow rate is larger than the set value, a rotation speed control signal Q corresponding to the difference is sent to the V-F converter 24, and the V-F converter 24 controls the rotation of the induction motor 1. Change the frequency of the 3φ AC voltage to determine the number. For example, now induction motor 1 is
It is driven by AC200V, 50Hz 3φ AC voltage, and depending on the difference between the measured value and the set value, 45Hz, 40Hz...
. . . The frequency is continuously changed to reduce the number of revolutions of the motor 1. Conversely, when the measured value of the flow rate is smaller than the set value, the number of revolutions of the motor 1 can be increased by increasing the frequency to 55 Hz and 60 Hz according to the difference. Therefore, the flow rate of paint delivered to the flow coater head 3 by the circulation pump 2 is approximately constant. Reference numeral 25 denotes a rotation speed detector of the motor 1, which is a combination of the rotation speed of the motor 1 detected by the rotation speed detector 25 and the lower limit value of the motor rotation speed preset by the rotation speed lower limit setting device 26 and the upper limit setting device 27. and the upper limit value in the comparator 28
When the rotation speed of the motor 1 exceeds the lower limit value and the upper limit value, the alarm 29 is activated and the motor 1 is
This is to notify you of an abnormality. 30 is a return gutter for returning excess paint flowing out from the flow coater head 3 to the paint tank 12.

Thus, in the present invention, a circulation pump that delivers paint to the flow coater head, a flow meter that measures the flow rate of the paint, and a comparison that compares the measured value of the flow meter with a preset flow rate setting value. and a control unit that reduces the rotation speed of the motor of the circulation pump when the measured value is larger than the set value based on the comparison signal of the comparator, and increases the rotation speed of the motor when the measured value is smaller than the set value. Therefore, even if the flow rate decreases from the preset flow rate due to the resistance of the connecting pipe or a clogged filter, the flow meter detects the decrease in flow rate, the comparison unit sends a comparison signal, and the control unit By increasing the rotational speed of the motor, the flow rate increases, and the flow rate of the paint sent to the flow coater head remains approximately constant, so it is not only possible to adjust the flow rate without requiring manual labor as in the past. The flow rate adjustment accuracy is good, and a stable coating flow rate is always obtained.By increasing the accuracy of the flow meter and control unit, delicate coating flow rate control is possible, and the work efficiency of the circulation pump is improved. Furthermore, a rotation speed detector detects the rotation speed of the motor of the circulation pump, and a comparator that generates an output to drive an alarm when the rotation speed of the motor deviates from a predetermined upper limit value and lower limit value. Because of this, if there is a risk that the rotation speed of the circulation pump motor becomes abnormal due to a problem with the control system, resulting in insufficient or excessive paint supply, the alarm can issue an abnormality alarm and reduce the damage caused by the problem. It also has the effect of minimizing the occurrence of defective coated products.
