Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coating agent changer, in particular a color changer for a paint shop, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • From DE 199 51 956 A1 is a color changer for a paint shop known that allows the paint shop, one after the other Apply paints of different colors.
  • the known Color changer For supplying the different colored paints, the known Color changer has several color connectors on top of each a controllable paint valve in a common color line lead. The desired paint is thereby selected, that the associated color valve is turned on, while the other color valves are closed.
  • the common color line In a color change, however, the common color line must initially cleaned of residues of the previously used paint after a deterioration of the painting result after to prevent a color change.
  • the known Color changer additionally a detergent connection, a Pulse air connection and a return port, which also via controllable valves in the common color line lead.
  • all Color valves closed to interrupt the paint supply and the paint line can be cleaned.
  • the remaining paint is still in the paint line pushed out with pulse air.
  • both the pulse air valve and the return valve open.
  • the purge valve and the pulse air valve are opened alternately. After this cleaning the common color line can then the desired paint can be supplied by the associated Color valve is opened.
  • a disadvantage of the known color changer is initially the high Detergent consumption, which in the cleaning of the common Color line is obtained.
  • Another disadvantage of the known color changer exists in that the one located in the common color line Paint can not be used during a color change and as a committee increases the paint consumption.
  • double color changer in which two independent color changers are connected in parallel and the output side via a separate Control valve are merged.
  • Parallel connection of two color changers shows each of the two Color changer on its own color line, so that at a Color change also flushed only one of the two color changer must become.
  • a disadvantage of such double color changers however, the fact that the line volume to be purged is the Color line between the respective color changer and the downstream control valve due to the structural separation is relatively large.
  • the equipment expense unsatisfactory for such double color changer.
  • EP 0 338 871 A1, DE 197 42 588 A1, DE 2 064 238 and DE 100 59 041 C2 similar color change arrangements known where multiple color changers connected in parallel are and merged on the output side in a control valve arrangement become. These known color change arrangements However, they have the same disadvantages as those described above Double color changer.
  • EP 1 134 027 A2 is also a conventional color changer known, in which several paint connections in a common Open color line. For a color change must be so here also the entire paint line to be rinsed.
  • the invention is therefore the object of a color changer to create a color change as possible has low color and detergent consumption.
  • the invention comprises the general technical teaching which Coating agent line in a coating agent changer split into at least two line sections and thereby the volume of the coating agent line to be cleaned to reduce.
  • the coating agent line So is in the inventive Coating agent changer, preferably internally, i. within the coating agent changer, in several line sections divided up.
  • the coating agent changer according to the invention is in this case preferably formed as an independent component, whereas the known double and multiple color change arrangements described above from an interconnection of several stand alone color changer.
  • the coating agent line consists of at least two pipe sections, in the for a feeder of coating agent in each case at least one coating agent connection flows, with at least one of the individual Line sections independent of the other line section is flushable.
  • the entire coating line too rinse, reducing the consumption of detergent and paint at a Color change is significantly reduced.
  • all line sections the coating agent line each independently flushable from the other line sections. This can be, for example be achieved in that the individual line sections the coating medium line connected in parallel are over and at their downstream end a switching valve are merged.
  • This variant of Invention is particularly well suited when the various used paints similar frequency of use exhibit.
  • the independently flushable duct section downstream of the another line section is arranged.
  • This variant of Invention is particularly well suited if the individual to be used paints a very different frequency of use exhibit. In the painting of automotive body parts For example, so-called high-runner colors used relatively frequently, whereas so-called Low-runner colors are relatively rarely needed.
  • the high-runner colors are preferred in this variant of the invention the line section of the coating agent line fed, which is independent of the other line section is flushable, whereas the less commonly used low-runner colors the conduit section of the common coating agent line be supplied only in common with the other line section of the coating agent line can be rinsed.
  • This variant of the invention with only one flushable line section can be realized, for example, by that the individual line sections of the coating medium line arranged one behind the other in the flow direction are and merge into each other, which fluidly too referred to as series connection of the individual line sections can be.
  • the coating agent line is preferred between the individual line sections a shut-off valve arranged to separate the individual pipe sections from each other to separate and thereby allow a separate flushing.
  • this is at the upstream end the coating agent line another detergent connection provided in the coating medium line empties.
  • the rinse is then preferably fed via the detergent connection, which at the upstream disposed end of the coating agent line is.
  • the rinsing agent is preferably via the rinsing agent connection fed between the two pipe sections is arranged.
  • a return connection is preferably provided, coating agent residues from the coating agent line attributed, wherein the return port is preferably between the individual line sections in the Coating agent leads to a return of Coating remnants also allow, if only one of the line sections of the coating agent line is rinsed.
  • yet another Return connection provided at the upstream end of the coating agent line in the coating medium line empties.
  • the parallel run line sections of the coating agent line also at their upstream end together guided, for which purpose preferably another switching valve is used. This is useful for bidirectional Rinsing of the individual line sections of the coating agent line each the desired line section to be able to select.
  • the coating medium changer Preferably, a pulse air connection, the downstream behind the separately routed line sections and / or at the downstream end of the coating agent line can be arranged and in the coating agent line empties.
  • the invention is not limited to a coating agent changer as an independent component limited, but also includes a coating system with such a coating agent changer.
  • the coating system shown in Figure 1 for example used for painting automotive body parts be and has application device as a rotary atomizer 1 on.
  • the rotary atomizer is 1 on the input side via a metering pump 5 with a color changer 6, which is one of a total of 20 possible colors F1-F20 selects and the rotary atomizer 1 feeds, the Color changer 6 is shown in Figure 2 and in more detail is described.
  • bypass valve 7 To bypass the metering pump 5 is still a bypass valve 7 provided.
  • the color changer 6 is modular and expandable to the number of selectable colors to the respective needs to adapt to the application.
  • the Color changer 6 several blocks 9, 10.1-10.7, 11, 12.1-12.3 and 13, wherein the individual blocks 9, 10.1-10.7, 11, 12.1-12.3 and 13 connected to a common color line 14 are and the inflow into the paint line 14 or the drain out of the paint line 14 via color control valves FV control.
  • the blocks 10.1-10.7 serve to control so-called Low-runner F1-F14 colors that are relatively rarely used whereas blocks 12.1-12.3 control so-called High-runner colors F15-F20 are used, which are relatively common be used.
  • the block 9 serves for supplying rinsing agent V1 via a flushing valve SV1 and for the return of paint residues from the color line 14 during a color change, the Return is controlled by a return valve RV1.
  • a special feature of the color changer 6 ' is that the color line 14 'in two line sections 14.1', 14.2 ' is divided, the fluidically connected in parallel are. This offers the advantage that the two line sections 14.1 'and 14.2' both independently purgable are.
  • upstream of the block is 10.1 'and downstream behind the block 12.3 'in each case a further block 16, 17 arranged a selection of one of the two line sections 14.1 'or 14.2' possible.
  • Blocks 16, 17 each have two shut-off valves, which as 2/2-way valves are designed and together as a changeover valve Act.
  • a difference of the color changer 6 "compared to that in FIG 2 shown color changer 6 ' is that the two separate line sections 14.1 “, 14.2" of the color line 14 "are brought together only downstream, whereas the line sections 14.1 “and 14.2" separated upstream are.
  • block 17 has two pulse air valves PV1, PV2, each with a check valve 15.1 “, 15.2" are connected to a pulse air line.
