Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coating system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • it is a Plant with electrostatic rotary atomizers or air atomizers for the serial coating of workpieces such as Car bodies with frequently changing colors.
  • the invention relates to a nebulizer for such Plant containing a dosing pump.
  • the dosage is also known with color quantity control loops, which are essentially from an electronic universal regulator as a control element, a serving as an actuator color pressure regulator and a flow measuring device exist for actual value detection and the as a shut-off Serving main needle valve of the usual atomizer upstream (Dürr / Behr Technical Handbook 02/1994 "Color flow control”; DE 101 42 355).
  • the invention is based on the object, a coating system or a nebulizer with a very accurate dosing pump which is smaller and lighter, a much smaller one Dead space volume has smaller and in the case of a color change Color, detergent and time losses caused than previously in coating systems known and customary dosing.
  • valveless piston metering pump selected according to the invention is in Principle known per se for many decades (DE 509 222), wherein for generating the superimposed translation and Rotational movements u.a. various joint and crank gears were used (DE 35 20 233, DE 196 19 675, DE 37 11 107, DE 198 25 769).
  • Metering pumps in the invention preferred Embodiment as a so-called wobble piston pump with to change of the stroke volume adjustable inclination angle between the Axes of the drive shaft and the piston are commercially available.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that these special pump in coating equipment and atomizers of here considered species has numerous previously unrecognized advantages.
  • valveless pump when installing the valveless pump in a nebulizer it also has the advantage of being much smaller, easier and easier than in coating systems so far used metering pumps and also with relatively low Torque, so operated with small and light drive motors can be. Accordingly small and compact can the Atomizers are built, resulting in coating machines and especially in robots advantageous in terms of dynamic Mobility and in terms of accessibility closer Workpiece areas and of workpiece inner areas is.
  • the pump is also suitable for dosing two-component paints (2K) with exactly maintainable mixing ratio in 2K mixing units that are much smaller and lighter than so far and thereby open new placement opportunities. by virtue of of the possible high pressure, the pump is suitable e.g. Well for 2K water clearcoat.
  • Another advantage is the possibility to easily use the Switching direction of the metering pump, as in paint supply systems Of coating equipment is often required.
  • the piston pump 1 shown schematically in Fig. 1 consists in the main thing from one in a cylinder bore 2 along its Axially displaceable cylindrical piston 3 and a through the Arrow at 4 indicated drive motor which moves the piston and at the same time it turns. Transverse into the cylinder bore 2 lead each other coaxially opposed holes, as Inlet opening 8 and outlet opening 10 are used.
  • Both the piston 3 and the bore 2 containing cylinder can be extremely precise, preferably made of ceramic become.
  • the piston pump can be directly or via a detachable coupling of a continuously rotating drive shaft are driven.
  • the drive shaft is pivotally mounted, so that their axis with the piston axis to change the flow rate adjustable angle forms. Except by changing the Speed of the drive motor 4 can therefore also the flow rate by changing the inclination of the pump head and the associated Change the stroke of the piston 3 in the cylinder bore 2 are adjusted.
  • a transmission which is a translational drive movement superimposed on a rotational movement.
  • a transmission For example, one of the known joint or Crank constructions can be used, but can for the invention expedient also a cam mechanism between the rotating Shaft of the drive motor and the piston to be switched.
  • the mathematical Function which defines the defined translatory Describes movement of the piston in the cylinder can be freely programmable, for example when using a known as Radiax engine radial-axial servo motor.
  • the transmission of the generated defined movements to the piston may be appropriate via a magnetic coupling or other fixed or releasable coupling done. Furthermore, between the Piston and its drive motor a flexible or rigid intermediate shaft be arranged.
  • Two or more piston metering pumps may also be considered here Art be provided, the at least one atomizer or when installed in a nebulizer, the outlet opening for the coating material forming paint nozzle in parallel or can be connected in series, the piston movements also controlled by different mathematical functions could be.
  • parallel connected metering pumps for the mixture of two-component coating materials be used.
  • FIG. 2 shows the metering pump according to FIG. 1 with additional features the invention.
  • the piston pump 1 'with additional Terminals 21 and 22, through which e.g. on liquid or possibly also gaseous cleaning medium for backwashing of the pump head through the rear, against the pumping chamber 9 sealed and therefore depressurized cylinder chamber 25 passed can be.
  • a sealing element 24 sit.
  • the connections 21, 22 can also be used to introduce and discharge a liquid serve, with the example optically the seal of the piston 3 can be monitored.
  • a paint compatible transparent liquid such as "mesanol” is used which discolor with seal leaks, e.g. in one transparent conduit part at the outlet port 22 visually observed and / or for the automatic generation of an alarm signal can be visually evaluated.
