Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus, and more particularly to a rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus capable of lightening an air motor.
- A typical currently used rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus is illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4. The rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus generally includes an atomizing head (bell head) 1, a
drive shaft 2, an air motor 3', a main housing 4', a shaping air cap 5, at least onepaint feed tube 6, and ahigh voltage generator 7. The air motor 3' includes a radial bearing 8', a thrust bearing 9', bearing housings 10' and 11' for supporting the radial bearing 8' and the thrust bearing 9', respectively, and an air supply nozzle 13' for driving a turbine. For the bearing of the air motor 3', a static-pressure air bearing is currently used. In the static-pressure air bearing, compressed air from an external air source is supplied to a radial gap between the air bearing 8' and thedrive shaft 2, so that thedrive shaft 2 floats from the air bearing 8' to produce a non-contact and completely oil less condition. The atomizinghead 1 coupled to thedrive shaft 2 is driven by supplying compressed air toturbine blades 12 fixed to the drive shaft. - To electrically charge the atomizing
head 1 to a high voltage, all elements of the air motor except the bearing metal are made from electrically conductive material (usually metal, and more particularly the housings 10' and 11' are made from aluminum and the bearings 8' and 9' are made from zinc bronze), and electrical charge is generated by contacting anelectrode pin 14 to an outside surface of theair motor 1. In this instance, a clearance between the bearings 8' and 9' and thedrive shaft 2 is small and the bearings 8' and 9' are charged to a high voltage, so that an electric discharge is generated between the bearings 8' and 9' and thedrive shaft 2 to electrically charge the drive shaft 2 (made from stainless steel) and the atomizinghead 1. The electrode pin 14 (which may be replaced by a coil spring or a plate spring) is not permitted to contact thedrive shaft 2. This is because if theelectrode pin 14 contacts thedrive shaft 2, a load will act on thedrive shaft 2 to deteriorate the floating support of thedrive shaft 2. - However, the conventional apparatus has the following problems because the elements of the air motor are made from the electrically conductive material (usually, metal):
- First, since the metal material has a large specific gravity, the air motor is heavy.
- Second, the electrically conductive air motor should be covered with an electric insulator having a sufficient thickness. The insulator corresponds to the main housing 4' in FIG. 4 which is made from, for example, polyethylene terephthalate). As a result, weight and size of the apparatus increases.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus capable of lightening an air motor, thus the apparatus itself.
- A rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus according to the present invention includes a drive shaft to which an atomizing head is coupled and an air motor for supporting and driving the drive shaft. In the apparatus, a pin electrode (needle electrode) is provided so as to oppose the drive shaft or the atomizing head so that a corona charge is generated between the electrode and the drive shaft or the atomizing head to electrically charge the atomizing head directly or via the drive shaft.
- In the above-described apparatus, since the drive shaft or the atomizing head is electrically charged without contacting the electrode to the drive shaft or the atomizing head and using the corona discharge, the bearing and the bearing housing of the air motor are permitted to be made from electrically non-conductive material, for example, ceramics and synthetic resin, so that the air motor and the apparatus are lightened as compared with the conventional air motor made from metal and the conventional apparatus.
- The above and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent and will be more readily appreciated from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
- FIG.1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention;

- FIG.3 is a cross-sectional view of a conventional rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus; and
- FIG.4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the conventional rotary atomizing electrostatic apparatus.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 illustrates a rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Portions common or similar to the first and second embodiments of the present invention are denoted with the same reference numerals throughout the first and second embodiments of the present invention.

- A rotary atomizing electrostatic coating apparatus according to any one of the first and second embodiments of the present invention generally includes a rotatable atomizing head (bell head) 1 for atomizing and scattering paint, a rotatable hollow drive shaft having a front end to which the atomizing
head 1 is coupled, anair motor 3 for rotatably and floatingly supporting and rotating thedrive shaft 2, amain housing 4 housing theair motor 3 therein, a shaping air cap 5 coupled to a front end of the main housing 4 (similar to the structure of FIG. 3), at least one paint feed tube 6 (similar to the structure of FIG. 3), and ahigh voltage generator 7 for charging electricity finally to the atomizinghead 1 to a high voltage. Thehigh voltage generator 7 contacts neither the atomizinghead 1 nor members electrically connected to the atomizing head. - The
air motor 3 includes a radial bearing 8 rotatably supporting thedrive shaft 2, a thrust bearing 9,housings bearings air supply nozzle 13 for supplying air toturbine blades 12 integrally coupled to thedrive shaft 2. For thebearings air motor 3, a static-pressure air bearing is used. The static-pressure air bearing causes thedrive shaft 2 to float from thebearings drive shaft 2 and thebearings head 1 coupled to thedrive shaft 2 is rotated by supplying compressed air to theturbine blades 12 of thedrive shaft 2. - With respect to a structure for charging the atomizing head to a high voltage, an
electrode 15 having a configuration of a pin or needle (hereinafter, a pin type electrode or a needle type electrode) is provided so as to oppose thedrive shaft 2 or the atomizinghead 1 with a gap remaining therebetween. Electricity is charged to thedrive shaft 2 or the atomizinghead 1 utilizing a corona discharge (a discharge emitting a weak light from a tip of the electrode, which is generated before spark discharge occurs) generated between thepin type electrode 15 and thedrive shaft 2 or the atomizinghead 1 when theelectrode 15 is charged at a high voltage (for example, several thousand volts). By this corona discharge, the atomizinghead 1 is charged directly or via thedrive shaft 2. The atomizinghead 1 and thedrive shaft 2 are made from electrically conductive material (for example, stainless steel). Thepin type electrode 15 is electrically connected to thehigh voltage generator 7. - Due to the above-described structure, the
bearings housings bearing housings - As a result, since ceramics and synthetic resin have specific gravities smaller than metal materials, the
air motor 3 and the coating apparatus including the air motor are lightened compared with the conventional air motor made from metal materials and the apparatus including the conventional air motor. - Further, since synthetic resin (for example, polyethylene terephthalate) is a hardness lower than that of metal material, a time period needed for machining the synthetic resin parts is decreased, whereby the manufacturing cost is also decreased.
- Furthermore, by decreasing a number of the parts made from electrically conductive material, an electrostatic capacity of the apparatus is also small so that handling the apparatus is easy.
- Next, portions unique to each embodiment of the present invention will be explained.
- With a first embodiment of the present invention, as illustrated in FIG. 1, the
air motor 3 and themain housing 4 are separate members to each other. Themain housing 4 is made from synthetic resin (more particularly, polyethylene terephthalate). Thehigh voltage generator 7 and an shaping air passage 16 (see FIG. 3) are disposed or formed in thehousing 4. - Since the bearing
housings air motor 3 are made from electrically non-conductive synthetic resin, themain housing 4 does not need to be thick from the viewpoint of electric insulation. As a result, the apparatus can be compact in size and can be lightened. - With a second embodiment of the present invention, the outer
synthetic resin housings air motor 3 function also as a main housing so that a particularmain housing 4 does not need to be provided. Within thehousings air motor 3, thehigh voltage generator 7 and the shaping air passage 16 (see FIG. 3) are disposed or formed. - Since the
bearing housings main housing 4 and a particular main housing separate from the bearing housings does not need to be provided, the apparatus can be down-sized and lightened to a great extent. - According to any one of the first and second embodiments of the present invention, since the atomizing head is electrically charged using corona discharge by providing a pin type or needle type electrode opposing the atomizing head or the drive shaft, the bearings and bearing housings of the air motor do not need to be made from metal, so that the air motor and the coating apparatus can be lightened and be compact in size.
