Definitions
- the invention relates to a coupling for connecting lines, in particular lines carrying coating powder or compressed air.
- the invention also relates to a powder coating system with such a coupling and a method for cleaning the powder coating system.
- the powder is sprayed onto the workpiece to be coated using one or more powder applicators.
- the powder-coated workpiece is then heated so that the powder melts. After the workpiece has cooled down, the powder forms a hard, closed top layer on the workpiece.
- the workpieces to be coated are usually located within a powder coating booth, which is also referred to below as a booth or coating booth for short.
- the powder applicators are supplied with coating powder via one or more powder conveyors, which can be located in a powder center.
- the coating process is interrupted and a so-called powder change is carried out.
- powder change is carried out.
- the powder for example when a different type of powder or powder with a different color is to be sprayed, more or less extensive cleaning measures are required in order to remove the remains of the previously used powder from the powder-carrying components of the system. Manual cleaning of these components can take some time. During the cleaning process, the system is not available for coating workpieces. This has a negative effect on production costs. Another disadvantage of manual cleaning is that staff run the risk of inhaling powder particles during cleaning. Furthermore, it must be ensured that the cleaning is carried out thoroughly. If, for example, the powder-carrying lines between the powder conveyor and powder applicators are not adequately cleaned, undesired color carryover can occur after a color change.
- the fluid switch comprises a feed plate with two fluid feed lines and a purge air feed, which is arranged between the two fluid feed lines.
- the fluid switch also includes one on the feed plate adjacent discharge plate with two fluid return lines and a discharge line, which is arranged between the two fluid return lines.
- the feed plate can be displaced relative to the discharge plate so that the two fluid feed lines and the purge air feed can be connected to the discharge line.
- This solution has the disadvantage that powder can be deposited between the feed plate and the discharge plate. This is particularly the case when the feed plate and the discharge plate are shifted relative to one another. The powder deposited between the plates can only be removed with difficulty and only with additional effort when cleaning the fluid switch.
- Another disadvantage is that the connections on the feed plate cannot really be positioned exactly opposite the connections on the discharge plate. The connections, which are more or less strongly offset from one another, create steps and dead spaces in which powder can be deposited.
- a color change system for paints is known.
- the system comprises a stator with several media valves and a rotor with a media channel.
- the rotor can be turned so that the mouth of the media channel is opposite the desired media valve.
- the coupling for connecting lines comprises a first coupling disk with first line connections and a second coupling disk with second line connections.
- a first drive is provided in order to be able to move the two clutch disks axially relative to one another.
- a second drive is provided in order to be able to rotate the two clutch disks relative to one another.
- the powder coating system according to the invention has the coupling described above and a powder conveyor which is connected to one of the first line connections of the coupling via a powder line.
- a powder applicator is provided which is connected to one of the second line connections of the coupling via a further powder line.

- At least some of the first line connections are arranged on a first pitch circle.
- the first drive in the powder coating system according to the invention comprises a pneumatic cylinder.
- a pneumatic cylinder can be produced simply and inexpensively.
- such a drive can also be used in areas with an increased risk of explosion.
- the second drive comprises a pneumatic cylinder.
- a pneumatic cylinder Such a drive can be produced simply and inexpensively.
- such a drive can also be used in areas with an increased risk of explosion.
- At least some of the first and / or the second line connections can be designed as hose nozzles.
- one clutch disc has a positioning pin and the other clutch disc has sockets for receiving the positioning pin.
- the positioning pin and the bushings help to position the (axially) adjacent channels of the two clutch disks exactly to one another so that no dead space is created at the transition between the adjacent channels and the seals and no powder can be deposited there.

- the two compressed air connections 133.3 and 133.4 can each be connected to a compressed air source via a valve V2 or V3 (see Figure 4 ).
- V2 or V3 see Figure 4
- the valve V3 When the valve V3 is closed and the valve V2 is open, the compressed air flows from the left into the cylinder 133.1 and pushes the piston 133.2 to the right.
- the piston 133.2 is shown in the right end position. If, however, the valve V2 is closed and the valve V3 is open, the compressed air flows from the right into the cylinder 133.1 and pushes the piston 133.2 to the left.
- the piston 133.2 is positively connected to an axle 138 via a pin 133.5.
- the axis 138 can have a corresponding receptacle for this purpose.

- the piston 133.2 is pressed to the right with the aid of compressed air, the two clutch disks 135 and 136 are pushed together again and pressed against one another.
- the positioning pin 136.2 is inserted again into the corresponding socket 135.4 or 135.5 so that the two clutch disks 135 and 136 are positioned exactly with respect to one another.
- the clutch disc 136 is in the first rotational position. If, however, the positioning pin 136.2 is inserted into the socket 135.5, the clutch disc 136 is in the second rotational position.
- the drive 134 can also have a pneumatic cylinder 134.1.
- the drive 134 can be attached to a holder 135.2.
- the holder 135.2 and the first clutch disk 135 can be implemented as components that can be separated from one another, and the clutch disk 135 can be mounted on the holder 135.2.
- the clutch disc 135 and the holder 135.2 can also be one component.
- the clutch disc 135 can, as in FIG Figure 1 shown to be partially round.
- the coupling 130 can be equipped with adjustable feet 139. Inside the pneumatic cylinder 134.1 there is a piston with a piston rod 134.2, which with compressed air in a first Position and can be brought into a second position.
- the drive 134 has two compressed air connections 134.3 and 134.4 for this purpose.
- the two compressed air connections 134.3 and 134.4 can each be connected to a compressed air source via a valve V4 or V5 (see Figure 1 ).
- a valve V4 or V5 see Figure 1 .
- the valve V4 When the valve V4 is closed and the valve V5 is open, the piston is pressed into the cylinder 134.1 or the piston rod 134.2 is pulled into the cylinder.
- the valve V5 When the valve V5 is closed and the valve V4 is open, the compressed air pushes the piston with the piston rod 134.2 out of the cylinder 134.1.
- the piston rod 134.2 is connected to the second clutch disk 136 via a joint 134.5.
- the clutch disk 136 rotates accordingly.
- the angle of rotation a through which the clutch disc 136 rotates depends on the stroke of the cylinder 134.1. If the piston with the piston rod 134.2 is pulled back into the cylinder 134.1 with the aid of compressed air, the clutch disc 136 rotates back into its original position by the angle of rotation ⁇ .
- the axle bearing or bearing 138.4 for short can, as in Figure 4 shown, for example have the shape of a socket. It is preferably equipped with an air purge.
- the bearing 138.4 can be supplied with air for purging via the axis 138.
- the axle 138 has a compressed air connection 138.1, to which an axially extending air duct 138.2 and at the end of the air duct 138.2 a radially extending air duct 138.3 are connected.
- Compressed air can flow into the two air channels 138.2 and 138.3 via a valve V1 which is connected to the compressed air connection 138.1. After the air has reached the outer end of the radially extending air channel 138.3, it flows between the axis 138 and the bearing 138.4 and removes any powder that may have deposited there.
- the two clutch disks 135 and 136 are preferably arranged coaxially, that is to say on the same axis 138.
- the axis 138 is the bearing axis for the clutch disc 135 and its axis of rotation for the clutch disc 136.
- the first clutch disk 135 can have a number of line connections 131.
- the row of line connections 131 is also referred to below as the first group of line connections 131. If the line connections 131 are to be connected to a compressed air line 83, they can be designed as compressed air connections 183.1 to 183.n. If the line connections 131 are to be connected to powder lines 81.1, 82.2, ... 82.n, they can be designed as hose nozzles 131.1, 131.2, ... 131.n, where n stands for any number of line connections or lines.
- the second clutch disk 136 can thus have a number of line connections 132.
- the row of line connections 132 is also referred to below as the second group of line connections 132. If the line connections 132 with compressed air lines 84 are to be connected, they can be designed as compressed air connections 184.1 to 184.n. If the line connections 132 are to be connected to powder lines 82.1, 82.2, ... 82.n, they can be designed as hose nozzles 132.1, 132.2, ... 132.n.
- the line connections 131 of the first clutch disc 135 can be distributed on a first pitch circle T1 with a radius r1 and on a second pitch circle T2 with a radius r2 (see FIG Figure 3a ).
- 26 of the line connections 132 are located on the first partial circle T1.
- 26 more of the line connections 132 are located on the second partial circle T2.
- the line connections 131 are preferably arranged in the same way as the line connections 132.
- the two partial circles T1 and T2 are preferably arranged concentrically.
- the line connection 184.1 is connected to the line connection 183.1. Furthermore, the line connection 184.2 is connected to the line connection 183.2, the line connection 132.1 is connected to the line connection 131.1 and the line connection 132.2 is connected to the line connection 131.2. The same applies mutatis mutandis to the remaining line connections 184.3 ... 184.n, 132.3 ... 132.n, 183.3 ... 183.n and 131.3 ... 131.n. With the Coupling 130, two of the line connections can therefore be connected to one another via a channel located in the coupling disks.
- 26 axially extending channels 135.1 are located in the first clutch disc 135 on the first pitch circle T1.
- Each of the channels 135.1 is assigned to one of the line connections 131.
- the second clutch disk 136 has the same structure in this regard.
- Each of the channels 136.1 is assigned to one of the line connections 132.
- the channels 135.1 of the first clutch disk 135 and the channels 136.1 of the second clutch disk 136 are connected to one another in pairs.
- the transition from a channel 135.1 to the adjoining channel 136.1 is preferably equipped with a seal 137. This applies to all transitions between two channels 135.1 and 136.1.
- the seals 137 are preferably in the form of a sleeve.
- Spacers 135.3 can be provided between the two clutch disks 135 and 136. These can for example be attached to the clutch disc 135 (see Figure 1 ).
- the clutch disk 135 can have threaded bores into which spacers 135.3 are screwed.
- the spacers 135.3 between the two clutch disks 135 and 136 ensure that the seals 137 are not too tightly compressed and damaged.
- the clutch 130 operates as follows. In a first step, with the aid of the drive 133, the second clutch disc 136 is spaced apart from the first clutch disc 135 by ⁇ x and the positioning pin 136.2 is pulled out of the one socket 135.4, for example. In a second step, the clutch disc 136 is rotated by the angle of rotation ⁇ from a first rotational position into a second rotational position. For this purpose, the piston rod 134.2 is pushed out of the cylinder 134.1. Subsequently, with the aid of the drive 133, the second clutch disk 136 is again brought up to the first clutch disk 135 and pressed against it. The positioning pin 136.2 is now inserted into the other socket 135.5.
- the positioning pin 136.2 and the sockets 135.4 and 135.5 help to position the adjacent channels 135.1 and 136.1 exactly with respect to one another so that at the transition between the adjacent channels 135.1 and 136.1 and the seals 137 there is no dead space and therefore no powder can deposit there either.
- the powder lines 82 can also be freed from powder with compressed air.
- the valve V11 is opened so that compressed air flows through the line 83, the connection 183.1, the corresponding channel 135.1 of the clutch disc 135, the corresponding channel 136.1 of the clutch disc 136 and the connection 132.1 into the powder line 82.1 and the powder located there flows in the direction of the powder applicator 80 is transported out of the line 82.1.
- the second clutch disc 136 is moved away from the first clutch disc 135. Then the clutch disk 136 is rotated back into the original rotational position, again moved up to the first clutch disk 135 and against it pressed. The powder lines are then available again for powder coating operations.
- the connections 131 and 132 of the first and second clutch disks 135 and 136 can be assigned as desired.
- the lines 83 can also be designed as further powder lines instead of compressed air lines.

- the excess powder which is also referred to as overspray, must be removed again from the booth 60. On the one hand, this is necessary because the area outside the booth must be kept free of powder dust. On the other hand, the risk of explosion increases if a certain powder concentration is exceeded by the powder dust cloud floating in the cabin. This must be avoided.
- the overspray occurring during the coating process is sucked out of the cabin 60 as a powder-air mixture together with the air in the cabin 60 and fed to a device for powder recovery 90 via a residual powder pipeline 92.
