Definitions
- the invention relates to a perforated plate (for example a panel) for an application device (for example an application device) for applying a fluid serving as a coating agent to a motor vehicle body and / or an attachment therefor.
- the invention also relates to an application device and an application method in which such a perforated plate is used.
- a perforated plate for an application device for in particular overspray-free application of a coating agent is already known.
- the perforated plate comprises several through holes for applying the coating agent, the through holes being arranged in several rows of nozzles in the form of a matrix and thus in a 2-dimensional configuration.
- sharp-edged coating agent webs can be produced.
- a disadvantage of this, however, is that the sharp-edged coating agent webs are unsuitable for overlapping, since they have an at least almost rectangular cross-sectional profile.
- Figure 13 shows e.g. B. an almost perfect joint of two coating agent webs B1 * and B2 * with a rectangular cross-sectional profile.
- FIG. 14 shows two coating agent webs B1 * and B2 * with a rectangular cross-sectional profile that do not touch or overlap in the joint / overlap area, resulting in an in Figure 14 disadvantageous dent shown on the right in the resulting coating.
- Figure 15 shows two coating material webs B1 * and B2 * with a rectangular cross-sectional profile, which overlap in the joint / overlap area in such a way that an overcoating occurs, which leads to an in Figure 15 disadvantageous mountain or elevation shown on the right in the resulting coating.
- an application device which discloses a cross-sectional profile in the form of a trapezoid that is more suitable for the overlapping of coating material webs.
- the trapezoidal profile is generated by several through holes for applying the coating agent, the through holes being arranged in several rows of nozzles in the form of a matrix and thus in a 2-dimensional configuration.
- the 2-dimensional configuration, with nozzle diameters of the same or different sizes, and the trapezoidal profile created by it, are initially very complex due to the large number of through holes.
- the 2-dimensional configuration results in an undesirably high flow of coating agent, in particular when the coating agent is applied continuously, as is customary when coating motor vehicle bodies.
- the 2-dimensional configuration also means that when a coating agent web is applied, coating agent is applied from a row of nozzles downstream relative to the direction of movement onto coating agent from a row of nozzles upstream relative to the direction of movement, which can disadvantageously lead to coating agent splashes because Coating agent strikes not yet sufficiently dried or solidified coating agent.
- DE 10 2011 056 823 A1 discloses a nozzle device for a furnace for the heat treatment of steel sheets or the like.
- This nozzle device consists essentially of a supply pipe of circular cross-section with a gas supply connection and a number of nozzle openings for outflowing gas.

- the perforated plate is characterized in that the at least one outer hole spacing of the row of nozzles in at least one edge area is greater than at least one hole spacing in the central area, so that a fluid application (e.g. fluid path) with a substantially trapezoidal cross-sectional profile is possible, e.g. B. substantially right-angled, isosceles or unequal-sided trapezoidal cross-sectional profile and / or substantially Gaussian-shaped cross-sectional profile.
- a fluid application e.g. fluid path

- the invention enables in particular that application splashes are reduced or completely avoided by applying the fluid from preferably only a single row of nozzles and thus a 1-dimensional nozzle configuration, because the row of nozzles applies the fluid directly to the component, possibly with the exception of a possible impact - or overlap area of two fluid applications, the above in the butt or overlap area Applied fluid is usually already sufficiently dried or solidified and therefore no longer tends, or at least only to a greatly reduced extent, to fluid splashes.

- Figure 6 shows a cross-sectional view through a perforated plate 1 in the region of one of the through-holes, the arrow in the cross-sectional view indicating the direction of flow of the coating agent through the through-hole. It can be seen from the cross-sectional view that the through hole has a flow-optimized hole opening 30, as a result of which the flow resistance of the through hole is reduced.
- the perforated plate 1 has a structuring on the downstream side at the peripheral edge of the through holes, which reduces the tendency to wetting.
- Figures 7A and 7B show an alternative cross-sectional view through the perforated plate 1 in the area of a through hole, wherein Figure 7A shows the through hole without a coating agent, whereas in Figure 7B a coating agent (e.g. fluid) 50 is shown.
- a coating agent e.g. fluid
- the coating agent 50 wets a wetting surface 60 on the downstream surface of the perforated plate 1, which makes a jet-shaped detachment of the coating agent 50 from the perforated plate 1 more difficult.
- the Figures 8A and 8B show a preferred embodiment of the invention with a reduced tendency to wetting.
- the perforated plate 1 has a tubular stub 70 on the circumferential edge of the individual through holes, the through hole merging into the tubular stub 70 so that the end face of the tubular stub 70 forms a wetting surface 80 at the free end of the tubular stub 70.
- the wetting area 80 is therefore limited to the free end face of the pipe stub 70 and is therefore significantly smaller than the wetting area 60 according to FIG Figure 7A . This facilitates the detachment of the coating agent 50 from the perforated plate 1.
- the stub tube 70 has between the downstream side of the perforated plate 1 and the free end of the stub tube 70 z.

- Figure 9 shows a modification of Figure 8A , wherein the outer jacket surface of the pipe stub 70 tapers conically to the free end of the pipe stub 70, so that the wetting surface at the free end of the pipe stub 70 is minimal.
- Figure 10A shows a schematic cross-sectional view through a perforated plate 1, which partially corresponds to the perforated plates described above, so that to avoid repetition, reference is made to the above description, the same reference numerals being used for corresponding details.
- a special feature of this exemplary embodiment is that the perforated plate 1 has a relatively thick edge 90 on the outside and a thinner area 100 with the through holes in the middle.
- the thick edge 90 of the perforated plate 1 ensures sufficient mechanical stability, while the reduction in thickness in the area 100 with the through holes ensures that the through holes offer only a relatively low flow resistance.

- a special feature of this exemplary embodiment is that the area 100 is only reduced in thickness on one side.
- a special feature of the in Figure 11 The embodiment shown of the through hole is that the through hole at the upstream hole confluence initially has a cylindrical region 200 with a first inner diameter.
- the cylindrical region 200 is then adjoined in the flow direction by a conical region 210 which tapers in the flow direction.
- the inner diameter d of the opening of the hole is preferably significantly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylindrical region 200.
- Figure 12A shows in a greatly simplified schematic representation an application device, in particular an application device, with a perforated plate 1 according to the invention for coating a component 160 (for example a motor vehicle body component).
- a component 160 for example a motor vehicle body component

Eine Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine verbesserte und/oder alternative Lochplatte zu schaffen, insbesondere eine Lochplatte, die einen verbesserten Stoß- oder Überlappungsbereich zweier Fluidbahnen und/oder einen zumindest im Wesentlichen fluidspritzerfreien Fluidauftrag ermöglicht.One object of the invention is to create an improved and / or alternative perforated plate, in particular a perforated plate, which enables an improved abutment or overlap area of two fluid paths and / or an at least substantially fluid splash-free application of fluid.
Diese Aufgabe kann durch die Merkmale der Haupt- und Nebenansprüche gelöst werden. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung können den Unteransprüchen und der folgenden Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsformen der Erfindung entnommen werden.This object can be achieved by the features of the main and secondary claims. Advantageous further developments of the invention can be found in the subclaims and the following description preferred embodiments of the invention are taken.
Die Erfindung schafft eine Lochplatte (z. B. Blende, Streifen, Plättchen etc.) für eine Applikationsvorrichtung (z. B. ein Applikationsgerät) zur Applikation eines als Beschichtungsmittel dienenden Fluides auf eine Kraftfahrzeugkarosserie und/oder ein Anbauteil hierfür.The invention creates a perforated plate (e.g. cover, strip, plate, etc.) for an application device (e.g. an application device) for applying a fluid used as a coating agent to a motor vehicle body and / or an attachment for this.
Die Lochplatte und/oder die Applikationsvorrichtung dient insbesondere zur zerstäubungs- und/oder maskierungsfreien Applikation des Fluides.The perforated plate and / or the application device is used in particular for the application of the fluid without atomization and / or masking.
Das als Beschichtungsmittel dienende Fluid kann insbesondere ein Lack, ein Dichtstoff, ein Trennmittel, eine Funktionsschicht oder ein Klebstoff sein.The fluid used as a coating agent can in particular be a lacquer, a sealant, a release agent, a functional layer or an adhesive.
Das Fluid weist vorzugsweise eine Viskosität von größer 50mPas, größer 80mPas oder sogar größer 100mPas, insbesondere gemessen bei einer Scherrate von 1000s-1, auf. Dabei kann das Fluid ein newtonsches oder ein nicht-newtonsches Fließverhalten aufweisen.The fluid preferably has a viscosity of greater than 50 mPas, greater than 80 mPas or even greater than 100 mPas, in particular measured at a shear rate of 1000 s -1 . It can Fluid have a Newtonian or a non-Newtonian flow behavior.
Die Lochplatte weist zumindest vier oder zumindest fünf Durchgangslöcher zum Durchleiten des Fluides auf. Die Durchgangslöcher sind zweckmäßig in einer vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen linear ausgerichteten Düsenreihe angeordnet, wobei die Düsenreihe zwei Randbereiche und einen sich zweckmäßig zwischen den zwei Randbereichen erstreckenden Mittenbereich aufweist. Die Durchgangslöcher sind durch Lochabstände voneinander beabstandet.The perforated plate has at least four or at least five through holes for the passage of the fluid. The through holes are expediently arranged in a preferably essentially linearly aligned row of nozzles, the row of nozzles having two edge regions and a central region expediently extending between the two edge regions. The through holes are spaced apart from one another by hole spacings.
Die Lochplatte zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass der zumindest eine außenliegendste Lochabstand der Düsenreihe in zumindest einem Randbereich größer ist als zumindest ein Lochabstand im Mittenbereich, so dass eine Fluidapplikation (z. B. Fluidbahn) mit im Wesentlichen trapezprofilförmigem Querschnittsprofil ermöglichbar ist, z. B. im Wesentlichen rechtwinkliges, gleichschenkliges oder ungleichschenkliges Trapez-Querschnittsprofil und/oder im Wesentlichen gaußkurvenförmiges Querschnittsprofil.The perforated plate is characterized in that the at least one outer hole spacing of the row of nozzles in at least one edge area is greater than at least one hole spacing in the central area, so that a fluid application (e.g. fluid path) with a substantially trapezoidal cross-sectional profile is possible, e.g. B. substantially right-angled, isosceles or unequal-sided trapezoidal cross-sectional profile and / or substantially Gaussian-shaped cross-sectional profile.
Der zumindest eine außenliegendste Lochabstand entspricht insbesondere dem von außen ersten Lochabstand der Düsenreihe in dem zumindest einen Randbereich.The at least one outer hole spacing corresponds in particular to the first hole spacing from the outside of the row of nozzles in the at least one edge region.
Die zumindest zwei, zumindest drei und/oder zumindest vier außenliegendsten Lochabstände entsprechen insbesondere den zwei, drei und/oder vier von außen ersten Lochabständen der Düsenreihe in dem zumindest einen Randbereich.The at least two, at least three and / or at least four outer hole spacings correspond in particular to the two, three and / or four first hole spacings of the nozzle row in the at least one edge region.
Die Abstufung und somit zweckgemäße Lochabstandsvergrößerung kann nur für den außenliegendsten und somit den von außen ersten Lochabstand in nur einem Randbereich oder beiden Randbereichen erfolgen.The gradation and thus appropriate enlargement of the hole spacing can only be done for the outermost and thus the one from the outside first hole spacing in only one edge area or both edge areas.
Die Abstufung und somit zweckgemäße Lochabstandsvergrößerung kann aber auch über die zumindest zwei, zumindest drei und/oder zumindest vier außenliegendsten und somit mindestens zwei, mindestens drei und/oder mindestens vier von außen ersten Lochabständen in nur einem Randbereich oder beiden Randbereichen erfolgen.The gradation and thus appropriate hole spacing enlargement can, however, also take place via the at least two, at least three and / or at least four outermost and thus at least two, at least three and / or at least four from the outside first hole spacings in only one edge area or both edge areas.
Bei einer Lochabstandvergrößerung in nur einem Randbereich kann vorzugsweise eine Fluidapplikation (z. B. Fluidbahn) mit im Wesentlichen rechtwinkligem Trapez-Querschnittsprofil erzeugt werden.In the case of an enlargement of the hole spacing in only one edge area, a fluid application (e.g. fluid path) with an essentially right-angled trapezoidal cross-sectional profile can preferably be generated.
Bei einer Lochabstandvergrößerung in beiden Randbereichen kann vorzugswese eine Fluidapplikation (z. B. Fluidbahn) mit im Wesentlichen gleich- oder ungleichschenkligem Trapez-Querschnittsprofil erzeugt werden.In the case of an enlargement of the hole spacing in both edge regions, a fluid application (e.g. fluid path) with a substantially equal-sided or unequal-sided trapezoidal cross-sectional profile can preferably be produced.
Die Erfindung ermöglicht insbesondere eine verbesserte Schichtdickenverteilung im Stoß- oder Überlappungsbereich zweier Fluidapplikationen (z. B. Fluidbahnen), was zu optisch einheitlichen Fluidflächen (z. B. Beschichtungsflächen) führt, zweckmäßig ohne Schichtdickenschwankungen, die mit dem menschlichen Auge nachteilhaft erkennbar wären. Alternativ oder ergänzend ermöglicht die Erfindung insbesondere, dass durch Applikation des Fluids aus vorzugsweise nur einer einzigen Düsenreihe und somit einer 1-dimensionalen Düsenkonfiguration Applikationsspritzer reduziert oder gänzlich vermieden werden, weil die Düsenreihe das Fluid direkt auf das Bauteil appliziert, gegebenenfalls mit Ausnahme eines eventuellen Stoß- oder Überlappungsbereichs zweier Fluidapplikationen, wobei in dem Stoß- oder Überlappungsbereich das zuvor applizierte Fluid aber üblicherweise bereits ausreichend getrocknet oder erstarrt ist und somit nicht mehr oder zumindest nur stark reduziert zu Fluidspritzern neigt.The invention enables in particular an improved layer thickness distribution in the joint or overlap area of two fluid applications (e.g. fluid paths), which leads to optically uniform fluid surfaces (e.g. coating surfaces), expediently without layer thickness fluctuations that would be disadvantageous to the human eye. Alternatively or in addition, the invention enables in particular that application splashes are reduced or completely avoided by applying the fluid from preferably only a single row of nozzles and thus a 1-dimensional nozzle configuration, because the row of nozzles applies the fluid directly to the component, possibly with the exception of a possible impact - or overlap area of two fluid applications, the above in the butt or overlap area Applied fluid is usually already sufficiently dried or solidified and therefore no longer tends, or at least only to a greatly reduced extent, to fluid splashes.
Mittels der erfindungsgemäßen Lochplatte kann eine Abstandstoleranz zwischen zwei zweckmäßig randscharfen Fluidapplikationen (z. B. Fluidbahnen) auf bis zu +/- 150 µm, +/-200 µm, +/-500 µm, +/- 1mm oder sogar +/-2 mm erreicht werden.By means of the perforated plate according to the invention, a distance tolerance between two appropriately sharp-edged fluid applications (e.g. fluid paths) of up to +/- 150 μm, +/- 200 μm, +/- 500 μm, +/- 1 mm or even +/- 2 mm can be reached.
Es ist möglich, dass die Lochplatte nur eine einzige Düsenreihe zur Applikation des Fluides aufweist, so dass vorzugsweise eine 1-dimensionale Düsenkonfiguration ermöglicht werden kann.It is possible for the perforated plate to have only a single row of nozzles for applying the fluid, so that a 1-dimensional nozzle configuration can preferably be made possible.

B. entlang ein und derselben Ausrichtgeraden (zweckmäßig gerade Ausrichtlinie).It is possible for the row of nozzles to be centered linearly and / or center axes preferably of all through holes of the row of nozzles to be linearly aligned, e.g. B. along one and the same alignment line (useful straight alignment).
Es ist möglich, dass vorzugsweise alle Durchgangslöcher der Düsenreihe einheitlich (z. B. im Wesentlichen gleich) ausgeführt sind.It is possible that preferably all through holes of the row of nozzles are designed to be uniform (for example essentially the same).
Der außenliegendste Lochabstand der Düsenreihe in zumindest einem Randbereich kann zweckmäßig den größten Lochabstand der Düsenreihe aufweisen.The outermost hole spacing of the row of nozzles in at least one edge area can expediently have the largest hole spacing of the row of nozzles.
Die zumindest zwei außenliegendsten Lochabstände der Düsenreihe in zumindest einem Randbereich können größer sein als zumindest ein Lochabstand im Mittenbereich.The at least two outer hole spacings of the nozzle row in at least one edge area can be greater than at least one hole spacing in the central area.
Die zumindest zwei außenliegendsten Lochabstände in zumindest einem Randbereich können z. B. einheitlich (zweckmäßig im Wesentlich gleich groß) oder uneinheitlich (zweckmäßig unterschiedlich groß) ausgebildet sein.The at least two outermost hole spacings in at least one edge area can, for. B. uniform (expediently essentially the same size) or inconsistent (expediently different sizes).
Der Mittenbereich weist zumindest drei oder zumindest vier Lochabstände auf und somit zweckmäßig zumindest vier oder zumindest fünf Durchgangslöcher.The central area has at least three or at least four hole spacings and thus expediently at least four or at least five through holes.
Der zumindest eine Randbereich kann z. B. zumindest zwei oder zumindest drei Lochabstände aufweisen.The at least one edge area can, for. B. have at least two or at least three hole spacings.
Es ist möglich, dass die Lochabstände im Mittenbereich einheitlich (zweckmäßig im Wesentlichen gleich groß) ausgebildet sind, so dass die Durchgangslöcher im Mittenbereich gleichmäßig voneinander beabstandet sind. Alternativ oder ergänzend können die Durchgangslöcher im Mittenbereich zweckmäßig einheitlich ausgebildet sein.It is possible for the hole spacings in the central area to be uniform (expediently essentially the same size), so that the through holes in the central area are evenly spaced from one another. As an alternative or in addition, the through holes in the central area can expediently be designed uniformly.
Es ist möglich, dass der außenliegendste Lochabstand in dem einen Randbereich der Düsenreihe einheitlich (z. B. im Wesentlichen gleich) oder uneinheitlich (z. B. unterschiedlich) ausgebildet ist relativ zu dem außenliegendsten Lochabstand in dem anderen Randbereich.It is possible for the outermost hole spacing in one edge area of the row of nozzles to be uniform (e.g. essentially the same) or non-uniform (e.g. different) relative to the outermost hole spacing in the other edge area.
Es ist ebenfalls möglich, dass die zumindest zwei außenliegendsten Lochabstände in dem einen Randbereich der Düsenreihe einheitlich (z. B. im Wesentlichen gleich) oder uneinheitlich (z. B. unterschiedlich) ausgebildet sind relativ zu den zumindest zwei außenliegendsten Lochabständen in dem anderen Randbereich.It is also possible that the at least two outermost hole spacings in one edge area of the row of nozzles are uniform (e.g. essentially the same) or non-uniform (e.g. different) relative to the at least two outermost hole distances in the other edge area.
Der zumindest eine außenliegendste Lochabstand in dem einen Randbereich ist größer als zumindest ein Lochabstand im Mittenbereich und der zumindest eine außenliegendste Lochabstand in dem anderen Randbereich kann einheitlich (z. B. im Wesentlichen groß) ausgebildet sein relativ zu dem zumindest ein Lochabstand im Mittenbereich.The at least one outermost hole spacing in one edge area is greater than at least one hole spacing in the central area and the at least one outermost hole spacing in the other edge area can be uniform (e.g. essentially large) relative to the at least one hole spacing in the central area.
Es weisen alle Durchgangslöcher der Düsenreihe jeweils eine Locheinmündung an der stromaufwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte und eine Lochausmündung an der stromabwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte auf und einen Rohrstummel als dreidimensionale Strukturierung an der stromabwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte.All through holes of the row of nozzles each have a hole opening on the upstream side of the perforated plate and a hole opening on the downstream side of the perforated plate and a pipe stub as a three-dimensional structure on the downstream side of the perforated plate.
Die Locheinmündungen können z. B. einen größeren Durchlassquerschnitt aufweisen als die Lochausmündungen und/oder die Rohrstummel können zweckmäßig eine äußere Mantelfläche aufweisen, die sich zum freien Ende des jeweiligen Rohrstummels hin verjüngt, insbesondere konisch.The hole openings can, for. B. have a larger passage cross-section than the hole openings and / or the pipe stubs can expediently have an outer jacket surface which tapers towards the free end of the respective pipe stub, in particular conically.
Die zwei Randbereiche können z. B. symmetrisch oder unsymmetrisch ausgebildet sein. Vorzugsweise ist die Düsenreihe insgesamt symmetrisch ausgebildet, insbesondere achssymmetrisch und/oder spiegelsymmetrisch relativ zu einer quer zur Düsenreihe verlaufenden Symmetrieachse.The two edge areas can e.g. B. be symmetrical or asymmetrical. The row of nozzles is preferably designed symmetrically overall, in particular axially symmetrical and / or mirror-symmetrically relative to an axis of symmetry running transversely to the row of nozzles.
Es ist möglich, dass der außenliegendste Lochabstand in zumindest einem Randbereich um maximal den Faktor 2 oder 3 größer ist als jeweils ein Lochabstand im Mittenbereich.It is possible that the outer hole spacing in at least one edge area is at most a factor of 2 or 3 greater than a hole spacing in the central area.
Es ist möglich, dass die zumindest zwei außenliegendsten Lochabstände der Düsenreihe in zumindest einem Randbereich um jeweils maximal den Faktor 2 oder 3 größer sind als jeweils ein Lochabstand im Mittenbereich.It is possible that the at least two outer hole spacings of the row of nozzles in at least one edge area are in each case a maximum of a factor of 2 or 3 greater than one hole spacing in the central area.

Es ist möglich, dass zumindest ein Durchgangsloch im Mittenbereich der Düsenreihe und/oder zumindest ein Durchgangsloch in zumindest einem Randbereich der Düsenreihe eine trichterförmige Locheinmündung und vorzugsweise eine zylinderförmige Lochausmündung aufweist. Die trichterförmige Locheinmündung verjüngt sich vorzugsweise in Strömungsrichtung des Fluids. Die trichterförmige Locheinmündung des zumindest einen Durchgangslochs im Mittenbereich kann z. B. tiefer in die Lochplatte führen als die trichterförmige Locheinmündung des zumindest einen Durchgangslochs in dem zumindest einen Randbereich. Alternativ oder ergänzend kann ein Einlassquerschnitt (z. B. der eingangsseitige Durchlassquerschnitt) einer Locheinmündung zumindest eines Durchgangslochs im Mittenbereich der Düsenreihe größer sein als ein Einlassquerschnitt (z. B. der eingangsseitige Durchlassquerschnitt) einer Locheinmündung zumindest eines Durchgangslochs in zumindest einem Randbereich der Düsenreihe.It is possible that at least one through hole in the middle area of the row of nozzles and / or at least one through hole in at least one edge area of the row of nozzles has a funnel-shaped hole opening and preferably a cylindrical hole opening. The funnel-shaped opening of the hole preferably tapers in the direction of flow of the fluid. The funnel-shaped opening of the hole of the at least one through hole in the central area can, for. B. lead deeper into the perforated plate than the funnel-shaped opening of the hole of the at least one through hole in the at least one edge region. Alternatively or additionally, an inlet cross-section (e.g. the inlet-side passage cross-section) of a hole opening of at least one through-hole in the middle area of the nozzle row can be larger than an inlet cross-section (e.g. the inlet-side passage cross-section) of a hole opening of at least one through-hole in at least one edge area of the nozzle row.

B. im Wesentlichen rechtwinkliges, gleichschenkliges oder ungleichschenkliges Trapez-Querschnitts-Profil und/oder im Wesentlichen gaußkurvenförmiges Querschnitts-Profil, so dass sich die Düsenreihe insbesondere zur Erzeugung überlappungsoptimierter Fluidbahnen eignet.The row of nozzles is designed to form a fluid application (z. B. fluid path) with a substantially trapezoidal cross-sectional profile, z. B. substantially right-angled, isosceles or unequal-sided trapezoidal cross-sectional profile and / or substantially Gaussian-shaped cross-sectional profile, so that the row of nozzles is particularly suitable for generating overlap-optimized fluid paths.
Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform weisen die Locheinmündungen der Durchgangslöcher der Düsenreihe einen größeren Durchlassquerschnitt auf als die Lochausmündung.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the hole openings of the through holes of the row of nozzles have a larger flow cross section than the hole opening.
Die Erfindung ist nicht auf eine Lochplatte beschränkt, sondern umfasst auch eine Applikationsvorrichtung, z. B. ein Applikationsgerät, zur Applikation eines Fluides, wobei die Applikationsvorrichtung mindestens eine Lochplatte wie hierin offenbart aufweist.The invention is not limited to a perforated plate, but also includes an application device, e.g. B. an application device for applying a fluid, the application device having at least one perforated plate as disclosed herein.
Es ist möglich, dass die Applikationsvorrichtung ausgeführt ist, um eine druckgleiche Fluid-Anströmung über die gesamte Düsenreihe und somit über zweckmäßig alle Durchgangslöcher zu gewährleisten.It is possible for the application device to be designed to ensure a pressure-equal flow of fluid over the entire row of nozzles and thus expediently over all through holes.
Es ist ebenfalls möglich, dass die Applikationsvorrichtung ausgeführt ist, um eine vom Mittenbereich unabhängig steuerbare (z. B. regelbare) Fluid-Anströmung des zumindest einen Randbereichs zu gewährleisten.It is also possible for the application device to be designed to ensure a fluid flow to the at least one edge area that can be controlled (for example, regulated) independently of the central area.
Die zwei Randbereiche können z. B. durch dieselbe Fluid-Fördereinheit mit Fluid versorgt werden oder durch jeweils eine eigene Fluid-Fördereinheit, so dass insbesondere jeder Randbereich durch eine getrennt steuerbare (z. B. regelbare) Fluid-Fördereinheit mit Fluid versorgbar ist.The two edge areas can e.g. B. be supplied with fluid by the same fluid delivery unit or by a separate fluid delivery unit each, so that in particular each edge area can be supplied with fluid by a separately controllable (z.

Die Applikationsvorrichtung dient vorzugsweise zur Applikation eines Fluides mit einer Viskosität von über 50 mPas, über 80 mPas oder über 100 mPas, insbesondere bei einer Scherrate von 1000s-1.

The fluid can have a Newtonian or a non-Newtonian flow behavior.
Es ist möglich, dass die Applikationsvorrichtung zumindest zwei nebeneinander angeordnete Lochplatten aufweist, deren Düsenreihen vorzugsweise in Längsrichtung der Düsenreihen versetzt zueinander angeordnet sind.It is possible for the application device to have at least two perforated plates arranged next to one another, whose Rows of nozzles are preferably arranged offset to one another in the longitudinal direction of the rows of nozzles.
Die zumindest eine Lochplatte kann insbesondere an (z. B. auf oder in) einer äußeren Stirnseite der Applikationsvorrichtung angeordnet sein und somit vorzugsweise eine Außenplatte darstellen. Die zumindest vier Durchgangslöcher bilden folglich vorzugsweise Austrittslöcher aus der Applikationsvorrichtung.

The at least four through holes consequently preferably form exit holes from the application device. The invention also comprises an application method for applying a fluid by means of at least one application device and / or at least one perforated plate as disclosed herein.
Dabei ist es insbesondere möglich, dass das Fluid aus einer einzigen Düsenreihe der Lochplatte appliziert wird.It is particularly possible here for the fluid to be applied from a single row of nozzles on the perforated plate.

B. ein Lack, ein Dichtstoff, ein Trennmittel, ein Klebstoff etc., und/oder zur Ausbildung einer Funktionsschicht dienen kann.It should be mentioned that the fluid is a coating agent, e.g. B. a paint, a sealant, a release agent, an adhesive, etc., and / or can be used to form a functional layer.
Unter die Kategorie Funktionsschicht fallen insbesondere Schichten, die eine Oberflächenfunktionalisierung zur Folge haben, wie z. B. Haftvermittler, Primer oder auch Schichten zur Verringerung der Transmission.The functional layer category includes, in particular, layers that result in surface functionalization, such as B. adhesion promoters, primers or layers to reduce transmission.
Es ist möglich, die Lochplatte wie hierin beschrieben durch Merkmale der
Die erfindungsgemäße Lochplatte weist Locheinmündungen an der stromaufwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte und Lochausmündungen an der stromabwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte auf und z. B. dreidimensionale Strukturierungen an der stromaufwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte und umfasst dreidimensionale Strukturierungen an der stromabwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte.The perforated plate according to the invention has hole openings on the upstream side of the perforated plate and hole openings on the downstream side of the perforated plate and z. B. three-dimensional structuring on the upstream side of the perforated plate and includes three-dimensional structuring on the downstream side of the perforated plate.

Als Strukturierungen dienen Rohrstummel, die von der stromabwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte hervorstehen und in die die Durchgangslöcher übergehen, um insbesondere die Benetzungsfläche an den Lochausmündungen zu verringern.Tube stubs which protrude from the downstream side of the perforated plate and into which the through holes merge, in particular to reduce the wetting area at the hole openings, are used as structuring.

Die Lochplatte 1 umfasst sieben Durchgangslöcher 2.1, 3.1, 3.2 und 3.3 zum Durchleiten des Fluids, wobei die Durchgangslöcher 2.1, 3.1, 3.2 und 3.3 einer Düsenreihe mit einem Mittenbereich 2 und zwei Randbereichen 3a und 3b zugeordnet sind und durch Lochabstände a1, a2 und a3 voneinander beabstandet sind.The

Die Lochplatte 1 umfasst nur eine einzige Düsenreihe, wobei die Düsenreihe entlang einer geraden Ausrichtlinie (Ausrichtgeraden) 4 zentriert linear ausgerichtet ist, so dass die Mittelachsen vorzugsweise aller Durchgangslöcher 2.1, 3.1, 3.2 und 3.3 der Düsenreihe linear ausgerichtet sind und zwar entlang ein und derselben Ausrichtgeraden 4.The
Die Durchgangslöcher 2.1, 3.1, 3.2 und 3.3 der Düsenreihe sind vorzugsweise einheitlich und somit im Wesentlichen identisch ausgeführt.The through holes 2.1, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 of the row of nozzles are preferably designed to be uniform and thus essentially identical.

So können die Durchgangslöcher 3.1 und 3.2 des ersten Randbereichs 3a mittels der Lochabstände a1 und a2 voneinander beabstandet sein und die Durchgangslöcher 3.1 und 3.2 des zweiten Randbereichs 3b mittels der Lochabstände a4 und a5.The through holes 3.1 and 3.2 of the
Die Lochabstände a1, a2, a4 und a5 sind allesamt größer als die einheitlichen Lochabstände a3 im Mittenbereich 2.The hole spacings a1, a2, a4 and a5 are all greater than the uniform hole spacings a3 in the

Die Querschnitte der Beschichtungsmittelbahnen B1 und B2 weisen eine im Wesentlichen gleichschenklige Trapezform 6 auf und überlappen sich in einem Stoß- oder Überlappungsbereich. Die Abstandstoleranz zwischen den zwei Fluidbahnen B1 und B2 kann sich im Bereich von +/- 150 pm, +/- 200 pm, +/- 500 pm, +/- 1 mm oder sogar +/- 2mm abspielen. Die Trapezform 6 führt zu einer in

Daraus ist ersichtlich, dass das Beschichtungsmittel 50 eine Benetzungsfläche 60 an der stromabwärts gelegenen Oberfläche der Lochplatte 1 benetzt, was eine strahlförmige Ablösung des Beschichtungsmittels 50 von der Lochplatte 1 erschwert.It can be seen from this that the

Der Rohrstummel 70 weist zwischen der stromabwärts gelegenen Seite der Lochplatte 1 und dem freien Ende des Rohrstummels 70 z. B. eine Länge L auf, die vorzugsweise größer als 50 pm, 70 pm, oder 100 µm und/oder kleiner als 200 µm, 170 µm oder 150 µm ist, so dass der Rohrstummel 70 z. B. eine Länge L zwischen 50 bis 200 µm, 70 bis 170 µm oder 100 bis 150 µm aufweisen kann.The
Eine Besonderheit dieses Ausführungsbeispiels besteht darin, dass die Lochplatte 1 außen einen relativ dicken Rand 90 und in der Mitte einen dünneren Bereich 100 mit den Durchgangslöchern aufweist. Der dicke Rand 90 der Lochplatte 1 sorgt hierbei für eine ausreichende mechanische Stabilität, während die Herabsetzung der Dicke in dem Bereich 100 mit den Durchgangslöchern dafür sorgt, dass die Durchgangslöcher nur einen relativ geringen Strömungswiderstand bieten.A special feature of this exemplary embodiment is that the
Eine Besonderheit dieses Ausführungsbeispiels besteht darin, dass der Bereich 100 hierbei nur einseitig in seiner Dicke verringert ist.A special feature of this exemplary embodiment is that the
Die in den Figuren gezeigten scharfen Kanten und Ecken sind nur beispielhaft dargestellt und können vorteilhafterweise auch abgerundet ausgeführt werden, um sie strömungstechnisch optimaler zu gestalten oder um einen bessere Spülbarkeit zu erzielen.The sharp edges and corners shown in the figures are only shown by way of example and can advantageously also be rounded off in order to make them more fluid in terms of flow or to achieve better flushability.

Wichtig ist hierbei, dass der Innendurchmesser d der Lochausmündung vorzugsweise wesentlich kleiner ist als der Innendurchmesser des zylindrischen Bereichs 200.It is important here that the inner diameter d of the opening of the hole is preferably significantly smaller than the inner diameter of the
