Definitions

  • the invention initially relates to a spray gun and a paint storage container according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • a spray gun used in such a system is for example from DE 296 13 565 U1 known.
  • a spray gun which has a fluid-tightly sealed space penetrated by a nozzle needle, wherein the membrane provided for sealing at the same time allows for the opening and closing of the spray gun movement and the space for use as a pressure chamber of a pressurized fluid can be acted upon.
  • FR 2179 304 A1 is a system consisting of a spray gun and a paint storage container known, wherein in the paint storage container located color for entry into the spray gun and for spraying by the spray gun by means of compressed air is pressurized to form a compressed air space in the paint storage container.
  • the invention is concerned with the object of specifying a system consisting of a spray gun and a paint storage container, and a method for actuating a spray gun designed as a gun, in which system or method, a beneficial application of color the color storage container is possible.
  • the measures used to pressurize the space for use as a pressure space by a pressurized fluid also include that the space may be hermetically sealed and fluid therein may be due to movement of the membrane itself when pressure is on the other side the color space prevails, creating the back pressure in the room. It can also be provided that, depending on a typical operating sequence or as a function of a pressure measured on the color side, for example by a piston-cylinder unit, the pressure in the pressure chamber is actively regulated.
  • an additional force is applied in the direction of the closing direction of the nozzle needle as a result of the fact that the space for use as a pressure chamber is acted upon by a fluid under pressure.
  • This additional force is preferably as far as the pressure at which the color is adjusted or corresponds to this pressure so that only a small spring force to achieve the closed position is required.
  • the pressure in the pressure chamber can also be controlled so that the said spring is no longer required as a result.
  • it may be sufficient that the spring is set so that the nozzle needle is securely in the closed position when the ink is depressurized and / or is up to a certain pressure predetermined pressure.
  • the pressure chamber is connected to a separate from the color entry media line.
  • This media line can be further preferably a compressed air line. It can in particular, as will be explained below in more detail, be connected to a compressed air space, which acts at the same time the color.
  • Said membrane which preferably consists of an elastic material, for example a rubber material, preferably a multilayer material, wherein a layer may be a rubber layer, need not necessarily be present as a substantially tensioned membrane. It may also be a bellows-like seal between the two spaces.
  • the fluid which acts on the membrane or just said bellows can also be an oil. It can also be the color itself, for example.
  • the compressed air space of the ink reservoir is preferably connected to the pressure chamber via a compressed air line.
  • the nozzle needle 3 is rearwardly limited by a stop member 6 in their movement.
  • the nozzle needle 3 is in the embodiment, and preferably in the application of the teaching given here, actuated by an electromagnet.
  • a magnetic coil 5 is provided.
  • the nozzle needle 3 is further connected to a pressure plate 7.
  • the pressure plate 7, which consists of two parts 7 'and 7 ", encloses therebetween a membrane 8, which is sealingly received on the edge side in an associated housing part 9.
  • the pressure plate 7 also makes the membrane 8 pressure-tight with the nozzle needle 3
  • the nozzle needle is in the closed position It can be seen that the membrane permits the movement of the nozzle needle 3 required for the opening and closing of the marking gun, which in the exemplary embodiment consists of an elastic material.
  • the nozzle needle 3 is further biased by a compression spring 10 in the closed position.
  • the nozzle needle 3 is received in a receiving plate 11 having a stop plate 12.
  • the receiving part 12 is loosely against the stop member 6, wherein associated with the parting surface in the stop member 6 and an anti-adhesive disc 24 is provided.
  • the compression spring 10 is supported on the one hand on the stop plate 11, on the other hand, the housing side on a paragraph thirteenth
  • the stop member 6 of the nozzle needle further comprises latching formations 14 which cooperate with prestressed detent balls 15.
  • the stop member 6 is screw-mounted in detail in a magnetic protective sleeve 25 and can be adjusted relative thereto by screws in the axial length.
  • the membrane 8 seals a space 16, which is used as a pressure chamber.
  • the space 16 is connected to a compressed air space 17 by means of a compressed air line 18.
  • the compressed air space 17 is located in the exemplary embodiment in a paint storage container 19.
  • By means of the compressed air 20 is in the ink reservoir 19 located color 21 pressurized.
  • About an outside Compressed air source is reached by means of the line 23, the compressed air of the color 21.
