Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device. coating product projection used, especially in installations where the power supply of a coating product projector is produced from a piston tank.
  • the flow rate of coating product is controlled relative to the speed of the conveyor which transports objects to be coated such as bodywork motor vehicles.
  • a calculator determines, at given time intervals, on the order of a few seconds, and depending on the speed of the conveyor, a paint flow setpoint which must be delivered to a projector during the interval of next time.
  • a supply of projector from a piston tank we thus controls the speed of displacement of the piston relative to the speed of movement of the objects.
  • the precision of the conveying speed of bodywork is also important for the state of surface obtained that the product flow accuracy of coating provided to the projector.
  • the invention solves all of these problems.
  • It relates to a product projection process coating thanks to at least one powered projector coating product from a tank piston characterized in that the position of the piston in the tank is slaved to the relative position of the projector in relation to the objects to be coated.
  • the invention also relates to a device suitable for implementation of this process and more specifically a coating product spraying device objects transported by a conveyor, said device comprising a projector powered by coating product from a tank to piston, characterized in that it comprises means to control the position of the piston in the tank relative to the relative position of the projector by relation to objects.
  • the invention applies equally well to the case where the objects to be coated parade in front of the projector, possibly mobile, or where the objects are fixed during the coating phases and where the projector is mobile, for example carried by the arm of a multi - axis robot.
  • the projector can be carried by a side machine or a roof machine.
  • Figure 1 The installation of Figure 1 includes a conveyor not shown moving objects, such as motor vehicle bodies 1 in translation in a cabin 2 along an axis XX '. She understands essentially several lateral machines 3a to 3f and a roof machine 4. Each of these machines carries at least one projector 5a to 5i respectively supplied with coating product from a piston tank 6a to 6i.
  • the tank 6a of the machine 3a comprises a piston 7a, controlled by a 8a electric step motor, and able to push the coating product outside the tank 6a to projector 5a.
  • the motor 8a is controlled by a digital control 9a connected to a non-automatic represented.
  • the position of the piston 7a in the tank 6a is determined by its abscissa on an axis along which it moves in translation.
  • the position of the bodywork along axis XX ' is measured by a sensor 10 placed on the path of the bodies 1 and whose output is connected to the PLC.
  • the position of the piston 7a in the tank is determined by digital control 9a depending on the position of the bodywork along the axis XX '. More specifically, a top is sent by the sensor 10 to the automaton for each centimeter traveled by the body. With an average speed of 4 meters per minute, a top is sent every 150 milliseconds.
  • the PLC interpolates the average setpoint value of the position of the piston 7a which is transmitted to the digital control 9a and motor 8a.
  • the operation of other machines is similar.
  • the function whose variable is the position of the bodywork along axis XX 'and for value the abscissa of the piston position is a function growing monotonous.
  • the piston is disengaged and held in position until the body returns to the position it occupied before changing direction.
  • the connection between the piston and its drive rod is of the type disclosed in application FR-A-2 722 432 on behalf of the Applicant whose content is included in the presents request by reference.
  • Curve A is used to a linear relationship between the conveyor tops and advance of the piston.
  • the constant scale coefficient is around 0.0375 since the piston travels approx. 150 mm while the body travels about 4 meters.
  • Curve B results from a coefficient of variable scale which is determined experimentally depending on the thickness of the coating product desired and the size of the surfaces to be painted perpendicular to their displacement on the conveyor. So the position of the piston in the tank in the middle of the body changes quickly because the entire height of the vehicle is to be painted while at the start and at the end of the coating phase the vehicle is painted to the top of the wings; that is to say at mid-height.
  • the installation in Figure 3 differs from that in the Figure 1 in that the conveyor is of the stop type (stop and go) and in that the projector 105a is susceptible to movements parallel to the XX 'axis, here mounted on a multi-axis robot 112a.
  • the elements similar to those of figure 1 carry identical references increased by 100.
  • the bodywork 101 being fixed in the cabin 102 during the phases coating product projection, position relative of the projector to the body is known by measuring the position of the projector 105a in cabin 102, i.e. the position of the end of the robot 112a arm.
  • the sensor 10 of the embodiment of Figure 1 can advantageously be replaced by a 110a encoder or set of encoders placed near the joints of the multi-axis robot 112.
  • the enslavement of the position of piston 107a in tank 106a is possible thanks to a numerical control 109a which drives a 108a electric stepper motor.
