  • the teeth of at least two adjacent gear wheels at least partially overlap.
  • a central gear wheel which is coupled with grip gear wheels may cause rotation of these wheels, while they rotate around the base axis.
  • German publication DE 102010047496 B4 discloses a device that has a rotational table on which a planetary gear is rotationally supported, and between the sun wheel of the planetary gear and the table a permanent connection is provided.
  • An inner gear wheel is rotationally supported by a bearing on the sun wheel, and a rotational bearing is arranged in the inner wheel.
  • the substrate grip and the inner gear do not form rotation individually and they correspondingly rotate around an axis during constant holding of the table and/or during rotational motion of the table relative to a driving plate, driving shaft or driving wheel.
  • Taiwan publication TW 201708589 A discloses a rotational grip mechanism of a device for coating a material, comprising a driving unit, a stand unit and a plurality of grip rotational units.
  • the stand is provided with a rotational base and a plurality of rotational rods and supporting rods.
  • each rotational rod drives a platform in a clockwise direction.
  • a gear positioned on a platform is slidingly movable by a first group of switching rods to generate a turn in a counterclockwise direction, and grips are slidable by second groups of switching rods to generate a turn in a clockwise direction.
  • the Applicant has used a device in a form of a hanger with a single piece grip, mounted on a rail, being a part of a production process, onto which hanger a piece subject to metallization or lacquering process has been placed. In the process of applying layers the hanger has been making a rotational movement around the axis of the piece.
  • a hanger that enables applying finishing layer on several pieces while providing uniform distribution of the lacquer of metallizing layer applied.
  • Such a hanger may be additionally used in lieu of earlier singular hangers, without the necessity to replace the entire production machine stock.
  • the invention provides a hanger comprising a central wheel, at least one satellite gear wheel, a piece grip, a housing.
  • the hanger is characterized in that the central wheel is seated immovably on the upper end of the central wheel sleeve.
  • the central wheel sleeve is in its bottom portion attached to a carrier element.
  • a driving shaft is arranged in the central wheel sleeve.
  • the driving shaft is in its bottom portion connected to a driving element and in its upper portion the driving shaft is attached immovably to the housing.
  • the hanger comprises at least one grip which is immovably attached to a mounting roll of a satellite wheel which is bearing-seated in the housing.
  • Each satellite gear wheel is seated immovably in another mounting roll of the satellite wheel.
  • Each satellite gear wheel interact with the central wheel.
  • the driving element is a driving disc.
  • the driving disc is connected to a belt transmission.
  • the housing comprises an upper portion of the housing and a bottom portion of the housing connected to each other.
  • a spacer Preferably, between the upper portion of the housing and the bottom portion of the housing there is a spacer.
  • connection of the upper portion of the housing and the bottom portion of the housing comprises a releasable connection, preferably a screw connection.
  • the satellite gear wheel has a smaller diameter than the central wheel.
  • connection of the upper portion of the housing with the driving shaft comprises a releasable connection, preferably a screw connection.
  • the number of the satellite gear wheels is less than five, preferably there are five of them.
  • a sleeve that comprises a sleeve, which sleeve is attached immovably to the driving sleeve, and the sleeve is preferably welded to the driving shaft.
  • the mounting roll of the satellite wheel is bearing-seated in the housing through a sleeve.
  • At least one of the sleeves is made of Teflon.
  • the carrier element is a carrier rail.
  • the bottom portion of the driving shaft is releasably connected to a driving element.
  • the grip has a shape of a non-through hollow cylinder which in its bottom portion has a cylinder base of a smaller diameter than the cylinder diameter, and the cylinder in its bottom portion has a flange, and at the bottom of the hollow space there is a through hole, and the grip is connected to a mounting roll of a satellite wheel by a grip screw passing through a through hole.
  • the subject invention improves lacquering or metallizing process. It enables increase of the number of pieces being processed, said pieces being positioned on rotatable grips of the hanger.
  • the hanger being subject-matter of the invention provides also uniform coating of the surface finishing layer while making rotational movement.
  • the invention allows for a greater effectiveness of the process and this in turn causes cost savings.
  • the hanger may be additionally used in place of the earlier singular hangers, without the necessity to replace the entire production machine stock.
  • Fig. 1 shows, in a perspective view, a hanger (1) along with a piece (2) placed on one of the piece grips (10).
  • Each placed piece (2) is subject to lacquering or metallization process.
  • the most preferable number is five for the grips (10), which number has been selected based on the size of the piece (2).
  • the hanger (1) is constructed of a driving shaft (8) along with a central wheel sleeve (7) positioned thereon, a housing (23) and a driving element (9).
  • the upper portion (8a) of the driving shaft (8) is immovably secured to the housing (23).
  • the driving shaft (8) is welded with the sleeve (22) so that the flange (22a) of the sleeve (22) abuts the upper portion (7a) of the sleeve (7) of the central wheel.
  • the housing (23) in an embodiment is constructed of an upper portion (20) of the housing and a lower portion (21) of the housing.
  • the upper portion (20) of the housing as seen in Fig. 2 , abuts the welded sleeve (22) and is pressed by a screw connection effected by means of a washer (16) and a screw (17), the connection being threaded.
  • the central wheel (6) is seated immovably on the upper portion (7a) of the sleeve (7) of the central wheel.
  • Mounting of a piece grip (10) is effected by securing immovably a satellite gear gear (3) on a mounting roll (4) of the satellite wheel, bearing-seated, in the embodiment according to Fig. 2 , in the housing (23) at two ends via Teflon sleeves (5).
  • the piece grip is connected, by a screw (threaded) connection embodied by means of a screw (12), to the mounting roll (4) of the satellite wheel. Between a piece grip (10) and the mounting roll (4) of the satellite wheel a shielding washer (11) is arranged.
  • the central wheel (6) interact with satellite gear wheels (3).
  • the presented embodiment in Fig. 3 shows a satellite gear wheel (3) of a smaller diameter than the central wheel (6).
  • the transmission ratio used therein causes that the satellite gear wheels (3) make more revolutions than the central wheel (6).
  • construction of a piece grip (10) is made compatible with size of the piece (2).
  • the grip is constructed of a non-through hollow cylinder which in its bottom portion has a base of a smaller diameter and the cylinder in its bottom portion has a flange which acts as a base for the piece (2).
  • At the bottom of the hollow space of the cylinder there is a through hole for the screw connection.
  • a driving element which is connected to an external mechanism.
  • the driving element is a driving disc (9) connected to a belt transmission.
  • the driving disc (9) is mounted in the bottom portion (8b) of the driving shaft (8).
  • This connection in the embodiment seen in Fig. 2 comprises a releasably threaded connection, by means of a washer (18) and a nut (19).
  • several hangers (1) are mounted on a carrier element (24) being a carrier rail.
  • the earlier type of the hanger along with the carrier element (24) is presented in Fig. 5 .
  • the object of the invention is characterized by its flexibility and it may be used in an existing production line, without any need for modification of other elements.
  • the operation mode of the hanger (1) for lacquering or metallization is as follows.
  • the driving shaft (9) causes rotation of the housing (23) and thus movement of the satellite gear wheels (3) around their axes.
  • the satellite gear wheels (3) cooperating with the central wheel (6) are moving on around the immovable central wheel (6) and cause rotation of the mounting rolls (4) of the satellite wheels around their axes along with the piece grips (10).
