Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a spray gun for dispensing an injection molding, in particular a water-dilutable and solvent-containing injection molding material, such as paints, varnishes, glazes, primers, stains, wood preservatives or the like, comprising a housing, arranged on the housing handle and a control switch to Switching the spray material dispensing on and off.
  • a spray gun for dispensing an injection molding, in particular a water-dilutable and solvent-containing injection molding material, such as paints, varnishes, glazes, primers, stains, wood preservatives or the like, comprising a housing, arranged on the housing handle and a control switch to Switching the spray material dispensing on and off.
  • Spray guns of the type mentioned are available in various designs.
  • the spraying method used is usually the low-pressure spraying method, which is a method in which sprayed material sprays at a low pressure of about 0.2 to about 0.5 bar and with a high volume of air at about 200 liters per minute becomes.
  • This HVLP spraying process achieves low overspray, i. because of its low spray losses, coating levels up to about 65%, and thus superior to conventional processes that achieve coating levels between about 20 and about 35%.
  • Characteristic of the method is the air surrounding the spray material, which reduces overspray and color fog. This results in advantages such as paint savings and low solvent emissions, which have a particularly environmentally friendly effect.
  • FIG. 5 which is a perspective view, shows, for example, a known spray gun from Wagner, which is sold under the trade name W850E.
  • This spray gun designated by the reference numeral 100 in FIG. 5, comprises a housing 102; a handle 104 formed integrally therewith at the lower rear end of the housing 102; an operating switch 106 which descends from a lower opening (not shown) of the housing 102 protrudes and is spaced from the handle 104 in the horizontal direction to leave a space for operating the control switch 106; adjuster 108 for manually adjusting the amount of spray to be dispensed by the spray gun 100 per unit time, the adjuster 108 having a rotatable regulator located at the rear of the control switch 106 in the space left between the control switch 106 and the handle 104 ; a compressed air hose 110 which serves to supply compressed air and is connected to the rear end of the housing 102; a spray nozzle 112, from which the sprayed material is discharged and which is arranged at the front end of the housing 102;
  • the structure of the spray gun 100 shown in Fig. 5 is disadvantageous in that the handle 104 can be grasped by a user only poorly. This is in part because the handle 104 is made very thin to ensure that a user can still reach the operating switch 106 effortlessly, for which reason a sufficiently large clearance must be left between the operating switch 106 and the handle 104. The same problem is exacerbated by the fact that the adjusting device 108 is arranged in the form of the rotatable regulator in this space, so the gap must be made even larger. Overall, the structure of the spray gun 100 shown in Fig. 5 in terms of ergonomics and handling of the spray gun 100 is therefore not an optimal solution.
