The nozzle of an airless paint sprayer has an extremely small diameter, so depending on the paint used, the nozzle may frequently become clogged. Since it is automatically fed by a conveyor, if the discovery of nozzle clogging is delayed, a large amount of coating defects will occur. Therefore, in order to avoid such a situation, the applicant proposed a method that reduces the jetting noise generated from the nozzle during paint jetting when the nozzle is clogged, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 57-145561. A microphone is placed near the nozzle of a spray gun to detect the volume of the spray sound generated from the nozzle, and when the volume falls below a predetermined set value, a nozzle clogging detection signal is issued. We devised a nozzle clogging detection device to do this, but for example, if the pressure of the compressed air supplied to the air motor, which is the drive source for the pump that pumps paint to the spray gun, drops, etc. When the pressure of the paint being applied temporarily decreases, the jetting pressure decreases and the jetting noise generated from the nozzle decreases, causing a nozzle clogging detection signal to be issued and the painting line to stop even though the nozzle is not clogged. I had something to do.

Although the above has already been disclosed by the applicant,
In this embodiment, a pressure sensor 15 is connected to the end of the supply hose 4 connected to the spray gun 1 on the spray gun 1 side, which detects the pressure of the paint and sends out a signal current corresponding to the pressure. At the same time, the amplifier 10 is adapted to be able to adjust the degree of amplification by an external signal, and when the pressure sensor 15 is connected to the external signal input terminal of the amplifier 10 and the level of the signal current decreases, The amplification degree of the amplifier 10 increases in proportion to this.

Next, to explain the operation of this embodiment, the nozzle 6
When the paint is being sprayed normally, a jetting sound in a specific frequency band is generated at a steady volume, but if the nozzle 6 is completely clogged or partially clogged, the jetting sound disappears, or As the current decreases, a current below a predetermined set value is input to the signal generator 12. As a result, the signal generator 12 issues a nozzle clogging detection signal and the conveyor 3
When the spray gun 1 stops, the spray gun 1 stops spraying paint, and an alarm is issued to notify the operator of the nozzle clogging.

On the other hand, even if the pressure of the compressed air supplied to the air motor, which is the driving source of the paint pressure pump 2, decreases for some reason, and the pressure of the paint force-fed to the spray gun 1 decreases, the nozzle 6 However, when the pressure of the paint decreases, the level of the signal current sent from the pressure sensor 15 decreases, which increases the amplification degree of the amplifier 10, and the signal current is output from the amplifier 10. The amplification current becomes large. Therefore,
Since a current higher than a predetermined set value is input to the signal generator 12, a nozzle clogging detection signal is not generated in this case, and a detection signal is generated only when nozzle clogging has truly occurred. Emitted.

In this embodiment, the amplification degree of the amplifier 10 is controlled by the pressure sensor 15, but as shown by the broken line in the figure, the pressure sensor 15 is connected to the signal generator 12, and this signal is By making the set point of the signal generator 12 adjustable by an external signal and changing the set point of the signal generator 12 in proportion to the level of the signal current of the pressure sensor 15, it is possible to adjust the set point of the signal generator 12 in response to a decrease in paint pressure. The set value may be lowered, and even with such a configuration, if the nozzle jet noise becomes low due to a decrease in paint pressure, a nozzle clogging detection signal will not be generated. It can be done.

As specifically explained in the above embodiment,
The nozzle clogging detection device for an airless paint sprayer according to the present invention has a microphone arranged near the nozzle of the spray gun of the airless paint sprayer, which converts the sound waves generated from the nozzle when paint is ejected into an electric current. A bandpass filter that passes only current in a frequency band, an amplifier that amplifies the current that has passed through the filter, and a signal generator that issues a nozzle clogging detection signal when the amplified current falls below a predetermined set value. In a nozzle clogging detection device configured by sequentially connecting the spray gun, a pressure sensor is provided in the paint path adjacent to the spray gun to detect a decrease in paint pressure in the path and send out a signal current corresponding to the decrease; Since the signal current is configured to increase the amplification degree of the amplifier or lower the set value of the signal generator, the paint generated from the nozzle is caused by a decrease in the pumping pressure of the paint supplied to the spray gun. The nozzle clogging detection signal is not emitted when the jetting sound becomes low, and the nozzle clogging detection signal is emitted only when the paint pressure is normal and the jetting sound becomes low, thereby accurately detecting nozzle clogging. It produces the effect that can be achieved.
