Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for Applying a coating to an object according to Preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the Invention a device for applying a Coating on an object according to the preamble of Claim 5.
  • the Coating particles are on the to be coated Applied object, possibly under influence electrostatic charge, and there, e.g. by a heat treatment, a durable coating.
  • a procedure is particularly known for Coating or spraying the inner seam of can frames or the entire inner wall of can frames Coating material.
  • It has to be Coating material usually a powder, over a long management are promoted because of access to the closed frame only by the welding machine can be done through.
  • the long line requires one high speed of the fluid, usually air, around the powder in sufficient quantity along the long line to promote. A high air speed or However, particle velocity is at the exit point disadvantageous because it causes the powder particles from the coating surface can bounce back what deposition efficiency deteriorates.
  • EP-A-0 732 151 shows a coating device, where some of the fluid is at the beginning of the Delivery line is removed.
  • the fluid velocity in the following line area reduces what the coating particles expel effected at low speed and thus the Degree of application increased. So the invention does that Separation of transport-related, in Exit or spray area but disruptive fluid from the Fluid powder mixture.
  • the lower speed and the associated increase in pressure continues to have an effect a swirling of the inflowing particles, what a better homogeneity of the exiting particle stream results.
  • Figure 1 shows schematically the structure of a Plant for the production and coating of can bodies.
  • the invention is illustrated below using this example explained in more detail, this being only as a preferred embodiment is to be understood.
  • the invention can also the coating of other objects.
  • Figure 1 shows a conveyor 1, which in the figure only schematically as a continuous conveyor belt is shown. With a real investment this Several types of funding can be provided with appropriate transfer elements be provided one after the other.
  • the one on the Conveyor 1 supported can bodies 2-7 manufactured in a known manner so that in a rounding station 8 a flat sheet is deformed into a can frame whose longitudinal seam is not yet closed.
  • the longitudinal seam can be closed further along the conveyor line at least in the roller seam welding machine 9 overlapped so that the Seam of the can frame using welding rollers 10 and 11 and are usually welded to a wire electrode can.
  • the welded can frames leave the Welding machine and arrive at a coating station.
  • the coating station either only the Weld seam or the entire inner wall of the frame provided with a coating material.
  • can this can be a coating powder which is inside the can is applied. This can cause an electrostatic charge of the powder are provided to ensure good adhesion to reach the powder on the inside of the can.
  • a Subsequent station 13 then undergoes a heat treatment performed the can frame, which a melting of the Powder causes.
  • the coating is done by Cooling down to the finished hard coating.
  • the powder-air mixture ejected and hits as ejected cloud 17, whose Shape depending on the design of the discharge area of the line 16 or the desired result of the inner coating can vary on the inside of the can frame.
  • the described method and the one shown Plant known. According to the invention, a Part of the fluid flow in line 16 in front of the outflow area taken from the line.
  • a suction line 18 is provided, which on a Place 19 in line 16 and which on the other End is connected to a vacuum source 20, which is the suction of part of the fluid flow in the Line 16 causes.
  • the extracted fluid can after Vacuum source 20 are released into the environment, wherein a filter can be provided, which with the Fluid powder particles sucked together holds back.
  • the suction of part of the fluid flow brings about the advantages described at the beginning. In particular can thereby the conveying speed for the Powder held up by means of the compressed air in line 16 be what the proper conveyance of the powder along the long line.
  • suction becomes the speed of the powder-air mixture after the suction point 19, i.e.
  • the amount the extracted fluid flow can be adjusted the vacuum source can be varied.
  • the setting can be done empirically such that despite the suction, enough powder on the inside of the frame is deposited.
  • FIG. 2 shows a preferred embodiment the front area of line 16, which contains the powder-air mixture promotes.
  • the powder-air mixture is conveyed again through line 16, at the exit end thereof 23 the discharge of a mixture of powder and air he follows.
  • the suction of part of the stream in the Line 16 also takes place here by means of line 18, which opens into line 16 in an area 19 '.
  • part of the wall of the line 16 is for Formation of a corresponding opening 24 omitted.
  • Connecting element 25 connects the two lines 18 and 16 with each other and forms a closed one Connection space 19 'through which the line 18 via the Opening 24 in connection with the interior of the line 16 stands.
  • the total stream A is now divided from powder and air into the two sub-streams B and C such that the recirculated partial stream B essentially only from the There is fluid or air and contains no powder particles.
  • the partial stream B is removed here after a curved region 26 of line 16, the centrifugal effect this pipe curvature is used. Accordingly move the heavier compared to the transport gas Powder particles predominantly on the right one in the drawing Along the manifold wall and thus in area 27.
  • Im in der Drawing left cross-sectional area 28 of the manifold flows mainly transport gas free of powder particles, which is essential without the amount of powder conveyed to be reduced, sucked off through line 18 can.
  • This embodiment results in a separation of transport-related, in the spray area but disruptive gas from the gas-powder mixture.
  • the flow rate the gas-powder mixture in stream C is reduced, so the relative velocity of the gas powder flow to be coated at a certain speed transported can frame greatly reduced becomes.
  • This reduction ensures that the Powder particles less of the surface to be coated bounce off and thus improves the application efficiency becomes. They continue at a certain speed conveyed powder particles due to the pressure increase and the associated decrease in speed slowed down in partial flow C due to the impulse effect and thereby creating an almost homogeneous gas-air cloud over the Whole line cross section swirled in area C. Thereby a more uniform powder layer thickness is achieved.
  • the pipe curvature shown is simple Means for separating the powder-air mixture in an area that mainly contains only air and one Area that contains powder and air.
