Definitions

  • the invention relates to a color change valve arrangement with a Valve block according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for flushing such a valve arrangement.
  • Color change valve blocks or in short color changers allow in Painting systems for the serial coating of workpieces such as Motor vehicles during the painting operation quick change from one color to another and pass mainly from a number of controllable color valves that are distributed along a color channel common to all colors.
  • a color pressure regulator can be arranged at the output of the color channel be, via which the color material, for example via a metering pump got to an atomizer.
  • Cleaning is usually done first opened a compressed air valve, which is located on the opposite end of the color channel, and through the compressed air the residual paint into a return duct and printed from there into a collection container.
  • the rinsing time can be done using a special dual-circuit technology reduce, in which in a circle of color changers and in other circle the path to the atomizer can be flushed, but increase the installation and control effort and the size of the color changer due to the required additional valves, and the amount of detergent remains relatively high.
  • a color change valve arrangement is known from DE 32 21 326 A1, at both the beginning of all colors common Color channel of the color change valve block as well as on one of these Valve block via a color pressure control valve downstream of the color distribution valve block Flush valves are arranged, which are optional Introduce compressed air, solvent or a mixture of both can. Furthermore, there is a modified version of this publication Embodiment known, in which the flushing media in the direction of color flow in the opposite direction through the color changer.
  • the invention has for its object a color change valve assembly and to provide a method of flushing them a reduction in rinsing time without significant additional effort and if possible also enable the consumption of detergent.
  • the invention has the particular advantage that compared to comparable known color changers for a significant reduction the rinsing time and also the amount of detergent required no additional valves are required.
  • a preferred use of the described here Color changers are color painting systems in which between the Color output of the color changer and a spray device such as for example one of the usual rotary or air atomizers or the like.
  • a spray device such as for example one of the usual rotary or air atomizers or the like.
  • a flushable metering pump or other metering device is arranged, the coating material over a Color pressure regulator is supplied, the color pressure regulator also itself can form the dosing device.
  • the invention is based on an embodiment shown in the drawing explained in more detail.
  • the color changer shown schematically in Fig. 1 can known structure as a valve block 1 with any string Modules to form a housing with a straight central color channel 2 and in each case in rows along the color channel valve bodies distributed on opposite sides if necessary to have.
  • the valve body contains 2 connected to the paint channel for example pneumatically controllable valves, of which a flushing agent valve V1 for the controlled introduction of at V as Detergent supplied thinner in the color changer, a pulse air valve PL1 for the controlled introduction of compressed air, various Color valves F1, F2, F3 and Fn for introducing coating material F of the selected color and a bleed valve RF2 are highlighted.
  • the remaining valve positions are of no importance for the explanation of the invention.
  • Color pressure regulator FDR arranged, of which a line 4 via a Dosing device, e.g. B. a metering pump 5 to an atomizer or other application organ Z leads with the usual Return valve RF1 is equipped.
  • the FDR color pressure regulator limits the outlet pressure to the pump.
  • the metering pump 5, for example a gear pump, is via a flushing valve V3 flushable with thinner V and provided with a bypass valve BY.
  • the pulse air valve is located according to FIG. 1 PL1 now at the output end of color channel 2, so that all Color valves F1 to Fn along the color channel 2 between the pulse air valve PL1 and the one at the opposite end of the color channel located detergent and vent valves V1 and RF2 are.
  • the flushing agent valve V1 is opened, so that thinner liquid from the input end of the paint channel to its exit and through it to a (not shown) Diverter valve before or on the application member Z flows.
  • the subsequent changing intervals of pulse air and thinner can for example be the same Time like the pulse air valve PL1 also the vent valve RF2 opened and thus fully exploited the dynamics of the pulse air become.
  • the vent valve RF2 can then again before the Pulse air valve PL1 should be closed as it is advisable if the entire pulse air is briefly through the output 3 of the Color changer is forced.
  • the color pressure regulator FDR can, however, also with the vent valve RF2 open one of the pressure conditions, i.e. the flow resistance of the Color pressure regulator FDR and the subsequent line system dependent part of the pulse air or the air-detergent mixture flow towards the application organ Z.
  • the entire air / detergent mixture flows when valve RF2 is closed to this exit, and when opening the vent valve RF2 reverses all or part of its flow direction around, which results in an additional cleaning effect. Since the flow resistance towards the valve RF2 is essential is lower than through the color pressure regulator FDR in the direction to the application organ, the valve is open when the RF2 valve is open to the input end of the valve block 1 flowing volume flow accordingly larger than the negligible residual flow through output 3. But it is also possible to use the color pressure regulator Close FDR when opening valve RF2.
  • the rinsing process required at short notice the direction of flow of a flushing medium can be reversed in whole or in part.
  • the reversal does not require the closing of a shut-off device or in the considered example of output 3, but can by opening an additional outlet, here that of the vent valve RF2 and the changing pressure conditions can be achieved.
  • the reversal of the flow direction leaves in principle also with the embodiment described here different arrangements of air and thinner valves to reach.
  • the flushing time is considerable due to the invention reduced (from 9.2 s to 5.8 s).
  • the required Reduced amount of detergent in the example examined from 283 g to 168 g, of which 265 g in the first case and in the second Fall 140 g on the return through the return valve RF1 on Application organ Z omitted).
  • rinse programs are also conceivable in which the detergent at certain times during the cleaning process the bleeder valve of the color changer is led out.
  • Fig. 2 The comparison shown in Fig. 2 was made without using the usual so-called EDPS flushing system, in which the flushing medium at a higher pressure than with standard flushing an injector is directed into the color changer and in interaction with the pulsed air an aerosol is created, with which especially is rinsed intensively and in a way that saves dishwashing medium
  • EDPS flush but can also be useful in the case described here Color changers can be applied.
  • the A certain amount of detergent per unit of time flow through the size of the opening and the pressure of the feed Detergent can be set. Through the exit of the detergent through the nozzle opening is also atomized of the detergent is reached, which reduces the cleaning effect is improved.
  • the solvent can through the upstream, as a shut-off valve serving valve V1 are clocked or flow continuously.
  • the color channel 2 can be selected from those explained in EP 0 979 964 A2 For the reasons described there, from the previously usual circular shape deviating elongated, e.g. B. approximately oval cross-section have, as shown in Fig. 4 at Q. In a further embodiment it is advantageous if the jet shape comes out of the nozzle D escaping detergent of the oval cross-sectional shape of the paint channel is adjusted. So it is a conical one Flat jet ST with a color channel cross-section Opening angle ⁇ and the length a and width b of the channel cross section Q corresponding dimensions.
  • the arrangement and / or shape of the nozzle D described can also in the case of arrangements of the solvent and Pulse air valves can be advantageous, even with conventional color changers with the arrangement of these two valves at the same end of the Color channel.
