Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は例えば鋼管やステンレス管等の金属管の外面を塗装する塗装方法および塗装装置に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
例えば、特開平4−66164号公報には、鋼管の外面塗装において、その鋼管の管長方向の一部分を塗布乾燥硬化後、この塗装完了部分を支持して残りの未塗装部分を塗布乾燥硬化する金属管外面の塗装方法が開示されている。図8は、上記従来の実施の形態を示す鋼管外面の塗装方法の概略説明図である。図において、金属管1は回転装置4により回転可能に支持され、前記金属管1の上方に複数個のノズルチップ2が、レシプロ装置3により矢印に示す管長方向に沿って移動可能に備えられている第1のステージ13と、第2のステージ14の2系統を並設している。
【0003】
金属管1は回転装置4で支持し所要の回転が与えられた状態で、複数個のノズルチップ2をレシプロ装置3により矢印に示す管長方向に移動させつつその管長方向の一部分11a〜11c(回転装置4で支持されない部分)を第1の塗布ステージ13で塗布する。前記金属管1は乾燥硬化工程を経た後に、塗布完了部分を回転装置4で支持し所要の回転が与えられた状態で、複数個のノズルチップ2をレシプロ装置3により矢印に示す管長方向に移動させつつ、管長方向未塗装部分11d〜11fを第2の塗布ステージ14で塗布し乾燥硬化させることによって、該金属管1の全面を塗装する。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上記のような従来の金属管外面の塗装方法では、ノズルチップ2からの塗料塗布は、金属管1に所要の回転を与えながらレシプロ装置3を矢印に示す管長方向に移動させつつ行うため、金属管1に対しては螺旋状の塗布となり、分割した塗布範囲11a〜11fのそれぞれの塗布範囲内での管長方向塗布量分布が図9に示すように不均一となる。
【0005】
また、金属管1の回転速度およびレシプロ装置3の移動速度を相対的に一定速度に保持しなければ、分割した塗布範囲11a〜11fのそれぞれの塗布範囲内での管長方向および円周方向塗布量分布が不均一となるため、金属管1の回転速度およびレシプロ装置3の移動速度を、正確に管理する必要がある。
さらに、各塗布ステージ13,14での金属管1の処理が1本単位で行われるため、処理能率が非常に悪いという問題があった。
【0006】
本発明は、このような問題点を解決するためになされたものであり、金属管の管長方向および円周方向の塗料塗布量分布を、正確な金属管回転速度およびレシプロ装置移動速度管理等を必要とせず、均一に塗布することができ、高い処理能率を確保することができる金属管外面の塗装方法および塗装装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明に係る金属管外面の塗装方法は、長楕円形の吐出パターンを有するノズルチップを、吐出パターンの長径方向が金属管の管長方向と同方向になるように金属管の上部管長方向に複数配置し、これらのノズルチップを金属管の管長方向と直交する方向に移動させて、管長方向を複数範囲に区画するとともに円周方向を複数範囲に区画した分割単位での塗装を1本または複数本の金属管を静止状態で円周方向に繰り返し金属管全周の塗布乾燥硬化完了後、完了部分で金属管を支持して管長方向の残分割範囲を塗布乾燥硬化させるものである。
【0008】
また、本発明に係る金属管の塗装装置は、長楕円形の吐出パターンの長径方向が金属管の管長方向と一致し、かつ金属管の上部管長方向に複数個配置したノズルチップと、ノズルチップを金属管の管長方向と直交する方向に往復動させ、かつ金属管との相対距離を金属管外形に合わせて一定化する昇降機能を持つレシプロ装置と、1本または複数本の金属管を同時に回転可能に支持する回転装置とを設けた設備を2系統並設するとともに、前記2系統間および前記2系統の前後に金属管を連続または不連続に供給または排出する前後搬送装置と、塗料の供給・回収・循環装置と、前記2系統の各装置を囲う局所排気装置とを備えたものである。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
図1は本発明の実施の形態を示す金属管を管長方向に分割塗布する状態の概略図であり、図2は本発明の実施の形態を示す金属管を円周方向に分割塗布する段階の説明図、図3は本発明の実施の形態を示すノズルチップの長楕円形吐出パターンの説明図および図4は本発明の実施の形態を示す管長方向と塗料塗布量との関係のグラフ図である。図において、金属管1はノズルチップ2がレシプロ装置3に支持されて一列に配設された下方に平行した状態で回転可能に回転装置4で支持される。前記ノズルチップ2は、金属管1を管長方向にここでは5分割した範囲のうち、管端部の管長方向分割塗布範囲(1)11a、管長方向分割塗布範囲(3)11cおよび管中央部の管長方向分割塗布範囲(2)11bを塗装するようにした第1の塗布ステージ13と、前記管長方向分割塗布範囲(1)11a、管長方向分割塗布範囲(3)11cと管中央部の管長方向分割塗布範囲(2)11bとの間に位置する管長方向分割塗布範囲(4)11dおよび管長方向分割塗布範囲(5)11eを塗装するようにした第2の塗布ステージ14の2段階にわたる工程からなっている。
【0010】
第1の塗布ステージ13、および第2の塗布ステージ14のいずれにおいても、該ステージで金属管1に塗装を施さない部分を回転可能に回転装置4で支持する。
すなわち、第1の塗布ステージ13では、金属管1の管長方向分割塗布範囲(1)11a〜管長方向分割塗布範囲(3)11cを避けた位置を回転装置4で回転可能に支持し、第2の塗布ステージ14では、管長方向分割塗布範囲(4)11dおよび管長方向分割塗布範囲(5)11eを避けた位置、つまり第1の塗布ステージ13で既に分割塗布され、乾燥硬化が完了した位置(管長方向分割塗布範囲(1)11a〜管長方向分割塗布範囲(3)11c)を回転装置4で支持する。
【0011】
前記第1の塗布ステージ13、第2の塗布ステージ14の何れの工程においても、図2に示すように外面塗装を行う金属管1の塗装面に対してその円周方向をここでは3分割し、先ずその円周方向分割塗布範囲(1)12aを、金属管1を静止した状態で金属管1の管長方向と直交する方向にノズルチップ2を移動させて塗装後、続いて金属管1を円周方向に分割単位で回転量を管理して回転させた後、円周方向分割塗布範囲12bを同様に静止した状態で塗装し、さらに続けて分割単位で金属管1を円周方向に回転量のみを管理して回転させ、円周方向分割塗布範囲12cを同様に静止した状態で塗装する。金属管1の円周方向分割回転とノズルチップ2の移動塗布の交互の繰り返しで金属管1の全円周を塗布する。
【0012】
ノズルチップ2は、金属管1の管端部の管長方向分割塗布範囲(1)11a、管長方向分割塗布範囲(3)11cおよび管中央部の管長方向分割塗布範囲(2)11bを塗装する第1のステージ13、前記管長方向分割塗布範囲(1)11a、管長方向分割塗布範囲(3)11cと管中央部の管長方向分割塗布範囲(2)11bとの間に位置する中間部の管長方向分割塗布範囲(4)11dおよび管長方向分割塗布範囲(5)11eを塗装する第2のステージ14の何れの工程においても、外面塗装を行う金属管1に対して、図3に示した長楕円形の吐出パターンを有し、その吐出パターンの長径方向を金属管1の管長方向と同方向となるように配置してある。図4は長楕円形の吐出パターンによる管長方向塗布量分布を示すもので、極めて良好な塗布量分布となっている。
【0013】
上記の実施形態においては、長楕円形の吐出パターンをもつノズルチップ2を、その長径方向が金属管1の管長方向と同方向になるように該金属管1の上部管長方向に複数個配置し、該金属管1を回転させずにこれらのノズルチップ2を該金属管1の管長方向と直交する方向に移動させながら塗布することで、該金属管1に対しては螺旋状の塗布とならず平面状の塗布となり、分割した塗布範囲のそれぞれの塗布範囲内での管長方向塗布量分布を均一にすることができ、1本の該金属管1を静止状態で、その塗装面に対しその円周方向を少なくとも3分割以上に分割した1分割単位を塗装後、その分割単位で該金属管を円周方向に回転させ、再びノズルチップ2を該金属管1の管長方向と直交する方向に移動させて塗布し、該金属管1の円周方向分割回転とノズルチップ2の管長方向での移動塗布の交互の繰り返しで該金属管1の全円周を塗布することで、該金属管1の回転速度の正確な管理を必要とせず、該金属管1の管長方向および円周方向の塗料塗布量分布を均一にすることができる。
さらに、各塗布ステージ13、14においてノズルチップ2を該金属管1の管長方向と直交する方向に移動する移動範囲内で、該金属管1を複数本同時に処理することで、処理能率を飛躍的に向上させることができる。
【0014】
前記第1の塗布ステージ13および第2の塗布ステージ14において、金属管1に対してレシプロ装置3がノズルチップ2を図5に示すように金属管1の管長方向と直交する方向に移動するように設けてある。このレシプロ装置3の移動範囲内で、金属管1を複数本、ここでは3本同時に処理可能に構成されている。第1の塗布ステージ13、第2の塗布ステージ14の間は例えば台車機構で構成される中間搬送装置5により、その前後は前後搬送装置6により搬送ラインと接続され、これらが相互に連結されて金属管1の外面塗装に係る円滑な工程進行を行う。なお、第1の塗布ステージ13および第2の塗布ステージ14の何れにおいても、局所排気装置10を設けて塗料ミスト、溶剤等が周囲に拡散して大気が汚染するのを防止する構造としている。
【0015】
さらに、図6に示すようにレシプロ装置3は、ノズルチップ2が金属管1との相対距離を一定化するために、上昇下降可能に設けられている。この機能により金属管1の外径変化に対して塗料の塗布条件を同一にすることができる。
【0016】
さらに、図7に示すように塗料の供給・回収・循環装置7を設けて、ノズルチップ2から吐出された塗料のうち金属管1に塗布されなかったものは、受け皿8で回収されて循環供給装置9で循環使用が可能なように構成している。
【0017】
上記実施の形態においては、金属管1の塗布面に対しその管長方向分割を5分割としたが、分割は少なくとも3分割以上あれば良く、また、各塗布ステージ13,14の各管長方向分割塗布範囲に対して、ノズルチップ2は各1個としたが複数個でもよく、金属管1の管長とノズルチップ2の長楕円形の吐出パターンの長径方向長さとを考慮して個数を決定してもよい。
【0018】
また、レシプロ装置3の移動範囲内で、金属管1の同時処理本数を3本としたが、レシプロ装置3の移動範囲を調整することで、必要とする同時処理本数に合わせることができる。
【0019】
さらに、金属管1の塗装面に対しその円周方向分割範囲を3分割としたが、分割は少なくとも3分割以上であればよく、金属管1の適用サイズ等に応じて適宜選定してよい。
【0020】
【実施例】

表1に本発明と従来技術による外面塗装結果を示した。表1から明らかなように、従来技術においては管長方向の塗布量分布が悪いことから出来上がった塗装膜厚の分布のバラツキが大きく、円周方向の塗装膜厚の分布についても正確な回転速度とレシプロ移動速度管理を行ってはじめて本発明と同程度のレベルが得られる状況であり、かつ、処理能率が非常に低かった。
これに対し、本発明においては、管長方向、円周方向のいずれも塗装膜厚の分布が良好で、かつ処理能率が飛躍的に向上する。

【発明の効果】
以上のように本発明によれば、長楕円形の吐出パターンを有するノズルチップを、その長径方向が金属管の管長方向と同方向になるように該金属管の上部管長方向に複数個配置し、該金属管を静止した状態でこれらのノズルチップを必要に応じて該金属管の管長方向と垂直の方向に移動させながら塗布することで、該金属管に対しては螺旋状の塗布とならず平面状の塗布となり、該金属管管長方向および円周方向の塗料塗布量分布を均一にすることができる。
また、該金属管の回転速度の正確な管理を必要とせず、さらに、各塗布ステージにおいてノズルチップを該金属管の管長方向と直交する方向に移動する移動範囲内で、該金属管を複数本同時に処理することで、処理能率を飛躍的に向上させることができ、工業上有用な効果がもたらされる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a coating method and a coating apparatus for coating an outer surface of a metal pipe such as a steel pipe or a stainless pipe.
[0002]
[Prior art]
For example, in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 4-66164, a metal for coating the outer surface of a steel pipe by coating and drying and curing a part of the pipe length direction of the steel pipe and then coating and drying and curing the remaining unpainted part. A method for painting the outer surface of a tube is disclosed. FIG. 8 is a schematic explanatory view of a method for painting an outer surface of a steel pipe showing the above-described conventional embodiment. In the figure, a metal tube 1 is rotatably supported by a rotating device 4, and a plurality of nozzle tips 2 are provided above the metal tube 1 so as to be movable along a tube length direction indicated by an arrow by a reciprocating device 3. Two systems of the first stage 13 and the second stage 14 are arranged in parallel.
[0003]
The metal tube 1 is supported by the rotating device 4 and is provided with the required rotation, and the reciprocating device 3 moves the plurality of nozzle tips 2 in the tube length direction indicated by the arrow while rotating the portions 11a to 11c in the tube length direction (rotation). A portion not supported by the apparatus 4 is applied by the first application stage 13. After the metal tube 1 has undergone a drying and curing process, a plurality of nozzle tips 2 are moved in the tube length direction indicated by an arrow by a reciprocating device 3 while a coating completion portion is supported by a rotating device 4 and given rotation is applied. Then, the entire length of the metal tube 1 is painted by applying the unpainted portions 11d to 11f in the tube length direction on the second coating stage 14 and drying and curing them.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional method for coating the outer surface of the metal tube as described above, the coating of the coating from the nozzle tip 2 is performed while moving the reciprocating device 3 in the tube length direction indicated by the arrow while applying the required rotation to the metal tube 1. As shown in FIG. 9, the pipe 1 is spirally coated, and the distribution of the coating amount in the tube length direction in each of the divided coating ranges 11a to 11f becomes nonuniform as shown in FIG.
[0005]
Moreover, if the rotational speed of the metal tube 1 and the moving speed of the reciprocating device 3 are not kept relatively constant, the amount of coating in the tube length direction and the circumferential direction within the respective coating ranges of the divided coating ranges 11a to 11f. Since the distribution becomes non-uniform, it is necessary to accurately manage the rotational speed of the metal tube 1 and the moving speed of the reciprocating device 3.
Furthermore, since the processing of the metal tube 1 at each coating stage 13 and 14 is performed in units of one, there is a problem that the processing efficiency is very poor.
[0006]
The present invention has been made in order to solve such problems. The distribution of coating amount in the pipe length direction and the circumferential direction of the metal pipe, accurate metal pipe rotation speed and reciprocating device movement speed management, etc. An object of the present invention is to provide a coating method and a coating apparatus for the outer surface of a metal pipe that can be applied uniformly without being required and can ensure high processing efficiency.

It has become.
[0010]
In both the first coating stage 13 and the second coating stage 14, a portion of the stage where the metal tube 1 is not coated is rotatably supported by the rotating device 4.
That is, in the 1st application | coating stage 13, the position which avoided the pipe length direction division | segmentation application range (1) 11a-pipe length direction division | segmentation application | coating range (3) 11c of the metal pipe 1 is rotatably supported by the rotation apparatus 4, and 2nd In the coating stage 14, a position avoiding the tube length direction divided coating range (4) 11d and the tube length direction divided coating range (5) 11e, that is, a position where the division coating has already been performed in the first coating stage 13 and the drying and curing are completed ( The tube length direction divided application range (1) 11a to the tube length direction divided application range (3) 11c) are supported by the rotating device 4.
[0011]
In any of the steps of the first coating stage 13 and the second coating stage 14, the circumferential direction is divided into three parts here with respect to the painted surface of the metal tube 1 to be coated as shown in FIG. First, after coating the circumferentially divided coating range (1) 12a by moving the nozzle tip 2 in a direction perpendicular to the tube length direction of the metal tube 1 while the metal tube 1 is stationary, the metal tube 1 is subsequently applied. After rotating by managing the amount of rotation in the circumferential direction in divided units, the circumferentially divided coating area 12b is similarly applied in a stationary state, and then the metal tube 1 is rotated in the circumferential direction in divided units. Only the amount is controlled and rotated, and the circumferentially divided application range 12c is similarly applied in a stationary state. The entire circumference of the metal tube 1 is applied by alternately repeating the circumferential rotation of the metal tube 1 and the moving application of the nozzle tip 2.
[0012]
The nozzle tip 2 coats the tube length direction divided application range (1) 11a, the tube length direction divided application range (3) 11c, and the tube length direction divided application range (2) 11b at the center of the tube. 1 stage 13, the tube length direction divided coating range (1) 11a, the tube length direction divided coating range (3) 11c, and the tube length direction divided coating range (2) 11b at the center of the tube.

The discharge pattern is arranged so that the major axis direction of the discharge pattern is the same as the tube length direction of the metal tube 1. FIG. 4 shows the distribution of the coating amount in the tube length direction by the oblong discharge pattern, and the coating amount distribution is extremely good.
[0013]
In the above embodiment, a plurality of nozzle chips 2 having an elliptical discharge pattern are arranged in the upper tube length direction of the metal tube 1 so that the major axis direction is the same as the tube length direction of the metal tube 1. By applying the nozzle tip 2 while moving the nozzle tip 2 in a direction perpendicular to the tube length direction of the metal tube 1 without rotating the metal tube 1, the metal tube 1 is spirally applied. Therefore, the distribution in the pipe length direction in each of the divided application ranges can be made uniform, and the single metal tube 1 can be applied to the painted surface in a stationary state. After painting one division unit that divides the circumferential direction into at least three divisions, the metal tube is rotated in the circumferential direction by the division unit, and the nozzle tip 2 is again set in a direction orthogonal to the tube length direction of the metal tube 1. Move and apply, the circumference of the metal tube 1 By applying the entire circumference of the metal tube 1 by alternately repeating the direction-division rotation and the movement application of the nozzle tip 2 in the tube length direction, accurate management of the rotation speed of the metal tube 1 is not required, The coating amount distribution in the tube length direction and the circumferential direction of the metal tube 1 can be made uniform.
Furthermore, by simultaneously processing a plurality of metal tubes 1 within a moving range in which the nozzle tip 2 is moved in a direction perpendicular to the tube length direction of the metal tube 1 in each coating stage 13 and 14, the processing efficiency is dramatically improved. Can be improved.
[0014]
In the first coating stage 13 and the second coating stage 14, the reciprocating device 3 moves the nozzle tip 2 relative to the metal tube 1 in a direction orthogonal to the tube length direction of the metal tube 1 as shown in FIG. 5. Is provided. Within the range of movement of the reciprocating device 3, a plurality of metal tubes 1, here three, can be processed simultaneously. Between the first coating stage 13 and the second coating stage 14, for example, an intermediate transport device 5 configured by a carriage mechanism is connected to the transport line by the front and rear transport device 6 before and after that, and these are connected to each other. The smooth process related to the outer surface coating of the metal tube 1 is performed. In each of the first coating stage 13 and the second coating stage 14, a local exhaust device 10 is provided to prevent the paint mist, solvent, and the like from diffusing around and contaminating the atmosphere.
[0015]
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 6, the reciprocating device 3 is provided so that the nozzle tip 2 can be raised and lowered in order to make the relative distance from the metal tube 1 constant. With this function, the coating condition of the paint can be made the same with respect to the change in the outer diameter of the metal tube 1.
[0016]
Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a coating material supply / collection / circulation device 7 is provided, and the coating material discharged from the nozzle tip 2 that has not been applied to the metal tube 1 is collected by the tray 8 and circulated and supplied. The apparatus 9 is configured to be circulated.
[0017]
In the embodiment described above, the pipe length direction division of the coating surface of the metal tube 1 is set to five. However, the division may be at least three or more, and the pipe length direction division coating of each of the coating stages 13 and 14 may be performed. The number of nozzle tips 2 is one for each range, but a plurality of nozzle tips 2 may be used. The number of nozzle tips 2 is determined in consideration of the tube length of the metal tube 1 and the length of the long elliptical discharge pattern of the nozzle tip 2. Also good.
[0018]
Further, although the number of simultaneous processing of the metal pipes 1 is set to three within the moving range of the reciprocating device 3, it can be adjusted to the required number of simultaneous processing by adjusting the moving range of the reciprocating device 3.
[0019]
Furthermore, although the circumferential division range of the painted surface of the metal tube 1 is three, the division may be at least three or more, and may be appropriately selected according to the application size of the metal tube 1 and the like.

Table 1 shows the results of external coating according to the present invention and the prior art. As can be seen from Table 1, in the prior art, the distribution of the coating film thickness is large due to the poor distribution of the coating amount in the tube length direction, and the accurate rotation speed and the distribution of the coating film thickness in the circumferential direction are Only when reciprocating movement speed management is performed is a situation where a level equivalent to that of the present invention can be obtained, and the processing efficiency is very low.
On the other hand, in the present invention, the distribution of the coating film thickness is good both in the tube length direction and the circumferential direction, and the processing efficiency is dramatically improved.

【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, a plurality of nozzle chips having an elliptical discharge pattern are arranged in the upper tube length direction of the metal tube so that the major axis direction is the same as the tube length direction of the metal tube. By applying the nozzle tip while moving the nozzle tip in a direction perpendicular to the tube length direction of the metal tube as necessary, the metal tube is kept in a spiral shape. Thus, the coating is flat and the coating amount distribution in the metal tube length direction and the circumferential direction can be made uniform.
In addition, accurate management of the rotation speed of the metal tube is not required, and a plurality of metal tubes are provided within a moving range in which the nozzle tip is moved in a direction perpendicular to the tube length direction of the metal tube in each coating stage. By processing at the same time, the processing efficiency can be drastically improved, and an industrially useful effect is brought about.
