Abstract

PURPOSE:To apply an electric charge to a powder coating efficiently by eliminating the electric charge generated on the wall surface of a charging tube instantaneously, without the thinning of the wall of the charging tube of a friction charging gun. CONSTITUTION:A needle-like electrode 3 is introduced into a charging tube 1 in such a manner that the tip of the needle-like electrode 3 protrudes from an inner wall surface. Thus, an electric charge generated on the wall surface of the charging tube 1 is allowed to escape from the needle-like electrode 3.

When the powder coating material conveyed by air passes through the charging tube at a high speed, the powder coating material collides with and comes into contact with the wall surface of the charging tube, and between the powder coating material and the charging tube. Friction occurs, which causes the powder coating to become charged.

The triboelectrification gun charges the powder coating material in this way. However, the same amount of electric charges of the opposite polarity as the electric charges charged by the powder coating material are generated on the wall surface of the charging tube. In order to continuously charge the paint, it is necessary to quickly release the electric charges on the wall surface of the charging tube, which are generated and accumulated due to the friction between the powder paint and the wall surface of the charging tube.
