Definitions

  • One object of the invention is to provide a device in which a very good heat transfer is obtained to the spray material and in which a pump for circulating spray material, as usually employed in hot spraying devices, may be dispensed with.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a device in which a single conduit for spray material may be provided between a spray material receptacle or source and the spray gun, but in which in a simple manner substantially all of the spray material between said spray material receptacle or source and the spray gun may be heated and kept at a desirable temperature.
  • a still fur ther object of the invention is to provide a hot spraying device in which the risks for explosions due to dry boiling in the heating device is avoided as far as possible.
  • a still further object of the invention is to practically eliminate the explosion risks due to electric sparking in the device.
  • the device comprises a liquid receptable, means for heating said liquid, means in said receptacle for transferring heat to spray material from the liquid, a hose for conducting spray material from said heat transferring means to a spray gun, jacket means enclosing said hose and communicating with the receptacle, a conduit for liquid providing a communication between the receptacle and a portion of said jacket means remote from the receptacle, and a pump for mechanically circulating hot liquid from the receptacle through said conduit and the jacket means.
  • hot liquid is conducted from the receptacle through the conduit to a portion of the jacket means for the spray material hose disposed adjacent the spray gun and then through said jacket means and from the jacket means at a portion more remote from said spray gun than said first mentioned portion and back to the receptacle.
  • FIG. 1 is a side view and partial vertical section of a hot spraying device according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 illustrates on a larger scale a vertical section of a pump acting mechanically on the liquid and forming a part of the device, and
  • Fig. 3 is a vertical section of a pump of a modified design for a hot spraying device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 designates a spray gun and 2 a hot liquid receptacle which may preferably be partially filled with water, as indicated at 53.
  • an electrical heating element 3 is provided which is supplied with current over leads 4 connected in a box 5, which contains a thermostatically op erated circuit breaker 6 of conventional design for closing and breaking the current to the element 3 so that the temperature of the water or other liquid in the receptacle 2 is kept at a constant and desired value.
  • a coiled tube 7 is disposed in the hot liquid receptacle 2 and forms a means for transferring heat from the liquid to the spray material which is connected by means of a conduit 8 to a not illustrated spray material source and through a conduit 9 to the spray gun I.
  • the conduit 9 which consists of a rubber hose is along the main part of its length enclosed by jacket means 10 which adjacent the spray gun is fitted to a header 11 and which communisates with the receptacle 2 at a portion 52 more remote from the spray gun and below the lowest permissible water level in the receptacle.
  • the jacket means 10 and conduit 9 may be carried out as a rubber hose with double walls.
  • a dash pct 12 is arranged to which hot liquid is pumped from the receptacle 2 by a pump 13.
  • the pump 13 is provided with an intake passage 14 which opens in the hot liquid receptacle 2 at a level so much above the level of the heating element 3 that supply of hot liquid to the pump ceases if the level of the liquid in the receptacle 2 should happen to sink below a level which is chosen with regard to the desired safety against dry boiling.
  • a delivery conduit 15 of the pump opens into the dash pot 12 from which a conduit 16 and a hose 17 lead the hot liquid to the header 11.

  • the pump 13 is carried out as a compressed air driven piston pump. Compressed air from the conduit 22, however, opens the ball valve 24 in the valve housing 23 only when a sleeve 25 provided in the housing has been shifted by a membrane 37 from the illustrated position to a lower position defined by a ball lock 26.
  • Compressed air then flows over the ball valve 24 through a conduit 27 to a chamber 28 in the pump cylinder 13 at the upper side of a pump piston 29.
  • the pump is provided with a suction valve formed as a disc 30 and a delivery valve formed as a spring loaded ball valve 31.
  • the pump piston is secured to a rod 32 which carries an auxiliary piston 33 and a valve throwing means 34.
  • the valve throwing means 34 opens the valve 35 in the valve housing 23 causing a space 36 at the upper side of the membrane 37 to be vented to the atmosphere through a passage 38 and a passage 39 along a guide pin 4% of the valve member 35.
  • Compressed air is constantly supplied to a chamber 42 in an auxiliary cylinder provided at the upper end of the cylinder 13.
  • the compressed air to the chamber 42 is supplied through a conduit 41 .nd acts on the lower face of the auxiliary piston 33, the upper face of which is turned towards the atmosphere.
  • Compressed air is furthermore constantly supplied through a conduit 43 to the valve housing 23.
  • the conduit 43 is branched to a space 44 containing the valve member 35 and a space 45 containing a valve member 46 provided with a guide pin 47 extending through a passage 48 in the valve housing 23, as obvious from Fig. 2.
  • the space 45 communicates through a passage 49 with a space 50 at the lower side of the membrane 37.
  • valve throwing member 34 Adjacent the upper end position of the piston 29 the valve throwing member 34 opens the valve 46 by engaging the guide pin This causes the space at the lower side of the membrane 37 to be vented to the atmosphere, and, since compressed air acts in the space 36 at the upper side of the membrane 37 as soon as the valve throwing member 34 has left the guide pin '44 the sleeve 25 is moved downwards upon venting of the space 50.
  • the main part of the spray material contained between a source of spray material, such as a pressure tank (not illustrated), and the spray gun may be heated effectively. Due to the positive displacement circulating pump the hot liquid in the receptacle 2 is always circulated through the jacket means It and a constant or substantially constant temperature of the spray material, for instance paint, is maintained which is important for obtaining a satisfactory working result.

Due to the positive displacement circulating pump the hot liquid in the receptacle 2 is always circulated through the jacket means It and a constant or substantially constant temperature of the spray material, for instance paint, is maintained which is important for obtaining a satisfactory working result.
  • hot spraying device above described should only be considered as an example and the details of the invention may be modified in several different ways within the scope of the-claims.
  • other pumps such as gear pumps may be used to circulate the hot liquid.
  • Sucha pump may be driven by a rotary air motor.
  • a modified reciprocating pump is illustrated in Fig. 3.
  • Said pump differs from the pump according to Figs. 1 and 2 substantially in the arrangement of the valve device 23 which according to Fig. 3 has been built into the auxiliary piston 33.
  • the elements of the pump according to Fig. 3 which are substantially the same as in the pump of'Figs. 1 and 2 have been designated with the same reference numerals and are not described again.
  • the pump piston 29 which is reciprocable in the cylinder 13 is in the embodiment of Fig. 3 provided with a piston rod 32 having a longitudinal passage 54 which opens into the chamber 23 in the pump cylinder near the pump piston.

  • the pump according"to 'Fig. '3 operates in thefollowt ing manner: In the illustrated position with the passage 41 open to compressed air source full line pressure prevails in the chamber 42 and compressed air flows through the passage 6?, the passage 71, the passages 75 and as to the cylinder chamber 28 The pump piston 29 is consequently moved downwards and forces hot liquid through the conduit 15. When the pump piston 29 during saidmovement has reached so far that the guide pin 63 is pressed against the bottom of the cylinder chamber 42 then the valve 61 is opened and compressed air flows into the chamber 66. The piston 67 is then displaced to the right in Fig.
