Definitions

  • This invention relates to an application device, vehicles, robots and the like.
  • attachable interchangeable container for receiving, mixing or homogenizing and - also discontinuous - dispensing of one- or multi-component fluid coating and / or repair materials and its use.
  • CH-A5 659 629 teaches and claims a two-chamber container for pasty masses, consisting of a housing and an ejection arrangement, the housing being divided into two separate chambers by a longitudinally arranged partition. At the upper end of each chamber there is an outlet opening through a gate valve which can be moved transversely to the longitudinal direction is lockable. A piston is also provided in each chamber and can be displaced in the direction of the outlet opening.
  • the material container according to US Pat. No. 4,811,549 is also a two-chamber container for two-component resins.
  • the separating membrane is removed before the resin is used; discontinuous dispensing of the resin is practically impossible.
  • Attachable interchangeable containers for receiving, mixing or homogenizing and also discontinuous dispensing of one- or multi-component fluid coating and / or repair materials is characterized in that the container, as main components, has an outer container for the coating and / or Repair material as well as a mixing insert which can be inserted and removed therefrom, wherein, when the mixing insert is inserted in the container, the two front sides of the interchangeable container are designed such that they can be brought into contact with fixing counter surfaces.
  • This interchangeable container is advantageously designed such that the outer container is circular-cylindrical and has one or more co-or ex-axially arranged cylindrical partial containers in its interior.
  • a central axial partial container can be used as a feedthrough for a rod, a pipe, lines and the like. is provided.
  • the mixing insert can contain a delivery unit such as a centrifugal, gear, rotary piston or spindle pump, which unit conveys the coating and / or repair material through the mixing insert.
  • a passive mixed use exists e.g. consisting of several layers, a compact layer with only through-holes being provided at the rear in the sense of ejection, the following layers having a sintered or filler structure which becomes finer towards the front, and the front layer having an outlet opening approximately corresponding to the counter surface.
  • An active mixed use is e.g. either a mechanical, hydraulic or electrical mixing head, vane or screw mixer, possibly with a drive motor, which is moved through a rod, pipe or line through the central sub-container, or a thermal head for the solution of solid hardeners in one-component epoxy resin mixtures before delivery .
  • the mixed use can basically be both construction elements of passive as well as active mixing inserts.
  • the interchangeable container according to the invention is used in such a way that the mixing insert is inserted in the front into the interchangeable container containing the material (s), and then, afterwards, the interchangeable container is placed in the receptacle provided for this purpose, possibly after removing a protective cover from the resin of the device is used, the rear front of the container sealingly attached to the fixing counter surface with the compressed air duct and the front front of the container sealingly attached to the counter surface with the material outlet opening.
  • the front mixed insert is inserted into the swap body containing the material (s), the energy supply to the unit is connected and the swap body is sealingly attached to the counter surfaces.
  • the procedure is such that the swap body containing the material (s) is initially inserted into the receiving device by introducing the rod, tube or line (s) into the central, coaxial sub-tank It is used that the mixing insert is then inserted into the container, possibly with hooking and / or fastening and / or connection to a rod / pipe / line, and that, finally, the interchangeable container is sealingly attached to the fixing counter surfaces .
  • the compressed gas moving the pistons can either be one from the outside via hoses or one generated by means of a compressor in the device.
  • 1.1 denotes the cylindrical outer container. It is made of metal or - optionally reinforced - plastic. To prevent the repair material from adhering to the inner wall, it can be specially pretreated or coated.
  • the repair material 1.2 itself can be a one-component; However, the two-component are technically more important. These belong to the group of structural adhesives; typical representatives are phenolic resins, polyurethanes, unsaturated polyesters and epoxy resins.
  • epoxy resins When used as a repair material, epoxy resins are normally cured with amines.
  • the hardening reaction proceeds with the formation of hydroxyl groups, which ensure good adhesion, in particular on metals and building materials, via hydrogen bonds.
  • aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic amines, polyaminoamides or their mixtures are used as hardeners.
  • Polyaminoamides are long-chain polymeric compounds that have a flexibilizing effect. They are cold curing and extend the service life as well as the curing time.
  • the standard systems of epoxy resins are liquid or two-component systems that are pasty due to the use of fillers.
  • the processing properties of both components are coordinated.
  • the flow properties of the resin and hardener components are similar in order to avoid errors in the dosage and subsequent mixing.
  • Dosing, mixing and application can be done by hand or by machine.
  • the material is applied with a spatula, toothed spatula or squeegee, poured on or rolled on.
  • 2-component systems are cold to warm curing.
  • the curing time is approx. 24 hours at 20 o C and a few minutes at 120 o C. The higher the curing temperature, the better the heat resistance achieved by the system.
  • Epoxy resins in the form of one-component systems are used when, after curing, high strengths at temperatures above 100 o C and easy processing are required.
  • resin and hardener are present side by side in the mixture.
  • the hardener is solid and insoluble at room temperature. Only when heat is added does it go into solution and thus initiate the hardening reaction.
  • the storage stability is limited to a period of a few weeks to a year.
  • FIG. 1 1.4 in FIG. 1 is the schematically illustrated mixing insert and 1.6 and 1.7 denote the two front sides of the swap body.
  • FIG. 2 shows the swap body according to the invention with a total of three coaxial, cylindrical material containers; the respective outer and inner walls of the middle container are designated 2.1. 2.2 contains the rod / line / pipe 2.4 guided thereby.
  • the various movable sealing pistons 2.6 are located in the containers in the sense of ejection at the rear.
  • the various components of the repair material are covered at the front with a removable protective cover 2.8. This is removed before the mixing insert is inserted.
  • FIG. 3 schematically shows the structure of a passive mixing insert for the swap body according to the invention.
  • the first layer 3.1 in the sense of ejection is compact and has various separate bores as lines for the repair material from the container to the first mixed layer of the insert.
  • the latter 3.2 consists of a sintered material or of interconnected filling or mixing structures.
  • the third layer 3.3 of the mixed insert consists of even finer sintered or filling structure materials.
  • These sintered or mixed-body structures do not have to be made of metal, simple ceramic or polymer materials can be used for this.
