Ransburg, Indianapolis, Ind., assignor to Ransburg Electra-Coating Corp., Indianapolis, Ind., a corporation of Indiana Continuation of'application Serial No. 516,256, December 30,1943. This application September 28, 1949, Serial No. 118,245
7 Claims. (Cl. 117-93) This invention relates to spray coating of articles in an electrostatic field such as is disclosed and referred to in etters Patent No. 2,247,963, issued July 1, 1941, on an application filed by Harold P. Ransburg and Harry J.
, of the atomizing agent on the coating particles is materially reduced, the'movement of atomized coating particles prior to' deposition may be more effectively and consistently controlled, and the production of uniform coatings on certain types of articles facilitated.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a novel method and apparatus by which electrostatic coating may be accomplished with better uniformity and greater efiiciency. I
The full nature of the invention will be understood from the accompanying drawings and the following description and claims:
"In the accompanying drawings, Fig. l is a central transverse vertical section through the apparatus; Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the spray booth with the front wall removed: and Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic illustration of the V apparatus in perspective.
' 'In the drawings there is shown for purpose of illustration, a spray booth in which articles 11 are electrostatically coated, such as with a paint, lacquer or the like discharged from the usual spray gun or guns. The spray booth may be of the ordinary type for hand spraying in normal atmosphere, or, as shown herein for purposes of illustration, it may be of the type for electrostatic coating, as more particularly and fully set forth and described in the above-mentioned Patent No. 2,247,-
- Extending along the top of the spray booth 10 there is an 'I-beam track 12 from which the articles 11 are suspended and caused to travel through the booth on the supporting rollers 13. Adjacent and to one side of the line of travel of the articles therethrough and mounted in the wall of the booth at either or both ends of the booth, there are a series of adjustable fixed spray guns 14 through which an atomized coating material is sprayed into the booth for electrostatic deposition on the surface of the articles to be coated.
An electrostatic field into which the coating is sprayed I is provided by high voltage discharge electrodes 15 mounted in the booth by the insulating supports 16 so as to be spaced on oneor both sides of the line of travel of the articles 11. By this arrangement, articles 11 constitute the opposite electrode, preferably being grounded through the track 12, said track being connected through the ground with one side of the source of high voltage, whereas the electrodes 15 are connected with the opposite side of said source through insulated lead wires 17. The coating which is sprayed in a fine mist into the electrostatic field becomes charged and is electrostatically deposited on the articles.
In order to better distribute the coating material in the electrostatic field about the articles, a forced draft is created in the booth which leaves the booth through the passage indicated at 19 and out through chimney or duct 20.
The forced draft is created by apparatus which may include motor driven exhaust fan 21 in the duct 20 at the discharge portion of the housing 18. This housing communicates with the spray booth through the passage 19, the axis of which is generally transverse to the path of article movement in the booth 10.
In order to reclaim the overspray it may be passed through suitable apparatus which may be set up in the housing 18. One embodiment of such reclaiming apparatus is described and claimed in the application of Harold P. Ransburg and Emery P. Miller previously mentioned and therefore will not be described here.
From the foregoing it will be evident that with the electrostatic method and apparatus here disclosed it is possible to modify the distribution of the finely divided coating particles in the electrostatic field and increase the quantity of atomized coating material present in the field regions between adjacent articles moved through the booth by the conveyor.
I claim as my invention:
