Abstract:
Provided herein is a coating system using a spray nozzle, the coating system comprising: a support where a substrate is disposed; a spray nozzle configured to inject towards the substrate liquid that has gone through a primary atomization by collision with gas; a voltage applier configured to apply voltage to the spray nozzle so that the liquid injected from the spray nozzle includes electric charge, and to generate an electric field between the support and the spray nozzle by the voltage applied to the spray nozzle and perform a secondary atomization of the liquid injected from the spray nozzle; and a transferrer configured to transfer at least one of the support and the spray nozzle.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for adjusting the relative movement between flocked fibers and an object to be flocked is disclosed. Fibers move along a curved or arcuate path which includes both vertical and horizontal movement of the fibers from a flocking machine to the object to be flocked. The method improves the flocking process quality and increases production speed and output.
Abstract:
Workpieces, which are conveyed by a conveying device along a conveying path, are heated by a heating and degreasing coil. Then, resin powder is downwardly sprayed from a nozzle of a coating device to each corresponding one of the workpieces, which are conveyed by the conveying device. The workpieces are thereafter heated by a heating and curing coil. At each of the heating coils, a dummy member, which is made of an electrically conductive material, is displaced from a retracted position to a forward position, which is located between the corresponding heating coil and a corresponding adjacent part of the conveying path of the conveying device, when an empty one of mount locations of the conveying device reaches the forward position of the dummy member.
Abstract:
A process and an apparatus for coating glass by means of a method using at least one or more liquid raw materials which react essentially on at least a portion of the glass substrate forming a coating on it. At least part of the liquid raw materials is atomized to droplets with one or more two-fluid atomizer and at least a fraction of the gas used in the one or more two-fluid atomizers is electrically charged such that at least a fraction of the droplets become electrically charged during or after the atomization. According to the invention the droplets are formed into a separately created electric field.
Abstract:
Apparatus and method for electrostatic charging of a container for an electrostatic coating operation includes a support member for supporting a container during an electrostatic coating operation with the support member comprising a non-metallic conductive material or electrically semiconductive portion that directly contacts a surface of the container. The electrically semiconductive portion comprises non-metallic, resistive or low conductivity material and is coupled to a source of electrical energy such that the container is electrostatically charged to an opposite polarity to offset or reduce electrostatic charge build up produced by the electrostatic coating operation.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an improved electrostatic coating apparatus that prevents imperfections in coating due to lumps of coating particles falling on the work piece. The electrostatic coating apparatus, which has multiple nozzles that spray electrically charged coating particles, has least one connecting member that connects the nozzles to each other, in such a way that the surface of the opening at the tip of the nozzle is inserted in a smooth interior surface of the connecting member. Although some of the coating particles discharged from the nozzles adhere to the interior surface, because the surface is smooth the coating particles can be prevented from concentrating locally into icicles that might fall onto the work piece.
