The device includes a housing ( 1 ) having a storage container ( 2 ) with an oblique base ( 3 ) and an air conduit opening into the base and of a deposition device that is positioned above the storage container. To ensure that the air stream exiting the vacuum chamber has a degree of purity that complies with legal requirements so that the stream can also be introduced into the working chamber, or can be used for a further coating process without any detrimental effect on the same, several sheath-type filter rods ( 13 ), which consist of borosilicate glass and are traversed by the air, are arranged downstream of the deposition device ( 5,7 ) in the direction of flow of the air removed by suction.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zum Auftragen eines Beschichtungsmediums auf zumindest eine Teiloberfläche eines langgestreckten Werkstücken in einer Vakuumkammer, bestehend aus einem Gehäuse mit einem einen schrägen Boden aufweisenden Vorratsbehälter und einer in denselben mündenden Luftleitung sowie aus einer oberhalb des Vorratsbehälters befindlichen Abscheideeinrichtung.The invention relates to a device for applying a Coating medium on at least a partial surface of an elongated Workpieces in a vacuum chamber, consisting of a housing with a a sloping bottom reservoir and one in the same opening air line and from one located above the reservoir Separation device.

Eine Vorrichtung dieser Art is aus dem Dokument US 5 078 080 bereits bekannt.A device of this type is already known from the document US 5 078 080.

Es ist bekannt, langgestreckte und in ihrer Längsrichtung transportierte Werkstücke zumindest auf einem Teil ihrer Oberfläche mit einem Beschichtungsmedium zu versehen. Dabei bestehen die Werkstücke vielfach aus Holz oder Holz enthaltenden Werkstoffen. Als Beschichtungsmedien werden pump- und filterfähige, düsengängige Flüssigkeiten, wie Pigmentlösungen, Farben, Lacke, Grundier- und Imprägniermittel eingesetzt. Dieses Beschichtungsmedium befindet sich in einem Vorratsbehälter, der meist im unteren Bereich eines Gehäuses ausgebildet ist und einen schrägen Boden aufweist. Von diesen Vorratsbehälter wird das Beschichtungsmedium zu einer Auftragseinheit gefördert, die als Sprüh- oder Flutrahmen oder als Schlitzdüse - profilabhängig oder profilunabhängig - ausgebildet ist. Diese Auftragseinheit ist in einer sogenannten Vakuumkammer ausgebildet, die an einem Vakuumtank angeschlossen ist. In dieser Vakuumkammer bildet sich ein Strom aus fein zerstäubtem Beschichtungsmedium und Luft aus, wobei die Luft über enge, das Werkstück umschließende Spalte von außen angesaugt wird. Durch diesen Strom aus fein zerstäubtem Beschichtungsmedium und Luft wird nun das zu beschichtende Werkstück geschickt. Dabei wird einerseits dem Werkstück sogenannte Porenluft entzogen und andererseits lagert sich das Beschichtungsmedium intensiv an den vorgesehenen Flächen des Werkstückes an. Überschüssiges Beschichtungsmedium wird zusammen mit der Luft aus der Vakuumkammer abgesaugt und in das Gehäuse mit dem Vorratsbehälter zurückgeführt. Der mit überschüssigen Beschichtungsmedium beladene Luftstrom tritt in eine oberhalb des Vorratsbehälters befindliche Öffnung in das Gehäuse ein und trifft dort auf ein ebenfalls oberhalb des Vorratsbehälters eingesetztes Prallblech. Hier wird der Luftstrom zunächst nach unten abgelenkt, bevor er nach oben über ein Lochblech oder dergleichen in den Vakuumtank abgesaugt wird. Bei dieser Umlenkung des Luftstromes werden Partikel des Beschichtungsmediums als Tropfen abgeschieden und fallen nach unten auf den schrägen Boden beziehungsweise in den Vorratsbehälter. Deshalb werden das Prallblech und das Lochblech zusammen auch als Abscheideeinrichtung bezeichnet. Von hier wird das Beschichtungsmedium erneut zu der Auftragseinheit in der Vakuumkammer gepumpt. Beispielsweise dann, wenn das Beschichtungsmedium Öl oder ölhaltige Bestandteile enthält, befindet sich in der aus der Vakuumkammer abgesaugten und wieder in das Gehäuse oberhalb des Vorratsbehälters eintretenden Luft Ölnebel, der bei der Umlenkung durch das Prallblech und den Durchtritt durch das Lochblech nicht beziehungsweise nicht vollständig entfernt werden kann. Dieser Ölnebel kann den weiteren Beschichtungsvorgang beeinträchtigen. Wird die aus der Vakuumkammer abgesaugte Luft nicht in den Vakuumtank zurückgeführt, sondern in den Arbeitsraum geleitet, wird die Qualität der Raumluft erheblich beeinträchtigt.It is known, elongated and transported in their longitudinal direction workpieces at least on a part of its surface with a coating medium Mistake. The workpieces often consist of wood or wood containing Materials. As coating media are pumpable and filterable, nozzle-accessible Liquids, such as pigment solutions, paints, lacquers, primers and impregnating agents used. This coating medium is located in a reservoir, the is usually formed in the lower part of a housing and a sloping bottom having. From these reservoirs, the coating medium becomes a Ordering unit promoted as a spray or flood frame or as a slot nozzle - Profile-dependent or profile-independent - is formed. This order unit is in a so-called vacuum chamber formed on a vacuum tank connected. In this vacuum chamber, a stream of fine forms sputtered coating medium and air, with the air over tight, the Partial enclosing column is sucked from the outside. Through this stream From finely atomized coating medium and air is now the to be coated Workpiece sent. On the one hand the workpiece so-called pore air withdrawn and on the other hand, the coating medium accumulates intensively on the provided surfaces of the workpiece. Excess coating medium is sucked out of the vacuum chamber together with the air and into the housing returned to the reservoir. The with excess coating medium laden air stream enters a located above the reservoir Opening in the housing and meets there on a likewise above the Reservoir inserted baffle plate. Here, the air flow first after deflected downwards before going up over a perforated plate or the like in the Vacuum tank is sucked off. In this deflection of the air flow are particles of the coating medium deposited as drops and falling down on the sloping floor or in the reservoir. That's why that will be Baffle plate and the perforated plate together also referred to as a separator. From here, the coating medium is returned to the application unit in the Pumped vacuum chamber. For example, if the coating medium is oil or containing oleaginous components, is located in the from the vacuum chamber aspirated and re-entering the housing above the reservoir Air oil mist, which during the deflection by the baffle plate and the passage through the perforated plate can not or can not be completely removed. This Oil mist can affect the further coating process. Will the from the Vacuum chamber sucked air is not returned to the vacuum tank, but in directed the work space, the quality of the indoor air is significantly impaired.

Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zu Grunde eine Vorrichtung zum Auftragen eines Beschichtungsmediums auf zumindest eine Teilfläche eines langgestreckten Werkstückes so auszugestalten, dass der aus der Vakuumkammer abströmende Luftstrom vor seinem erneuten Eintritt in den Vakuumtank oder in den Arbeitsraum so behandelt wird, dass der Luftstrom einen Reinheitsgrad aufweist, der den gesetzlichen Auflagen entspricht, so dass einerseits der Beschichtungsvorgang nicht beeinträchtigt wird und andererseits die Abluft bedarfsweise auch in den Arbeitsraum eingeleitet werden kann.The invention is therefore the object of a device for applying a coating medium on at least a partial surface of an elongated Workpiece so that the flowing out of the vacuum chamber Air flow before re-entering the vacuum tank or in the work space so is treated that the air flow has a degree of purity, the legal requirements, so that on the one hand, the coating process is not is impaired and on the other hand, the exhaust air, if necessary, in the work space can be initiated.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung bei einer Vorrichtung der eingangs beschriebenen Gattung vorgeschlagen, daß in Strömungsrichtung der aus der Vakuumkammer abgesaugten Luft hinter der Abscheideeinrichtung mehrere hülsenartige von der Luft durchströmte Filterstäbe aus Borosilikatglas angeordnet sind.To solve this problem is according to the invention in a device of initially described genus suggested that in the flow direction of the vacuum chamber sucked air behind the separator several sleeve-like air-flowed filter rods made of borosilicate glass arranged are.

Durch diese Ausgestaltung wird der in den Abluftstrom enthaltene Ölnebel zu über 99% ausgefiltert und zurückgewonnen. Der Verbrauch an Beschichtungsmedium kann damit reduziert werden. Die Abluft erreicht einen so hohen Reinigungsgrad, daß sie auch problemlos in den Arbeitsraum abgegeben werden kann.By this configuration, the oil mist contained in the exhaust air flow is over 99% filtered out and recovered. The consumption of coating medium can be reduced with it. The exhaust air reaches such a high degree of purification that It can also be easily dispensed into the work space.

Weitere Merkmale einer Vorrichtung gemäß der Erfindung sind in den Ansprüchen 2 bis 6 offenbart.Further features of a device according to the invention are defined in claims 2 to 6 discloses.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines in einer Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert.The invention is described below with reference to an illustrated in a drawing Embodiment explained in more detail.

In dieser Zeichnung ist von einer Vorrichtung zum Auftragen eines Beschichtungsmediums auf zumindest eine Teiloberfläche eines langgestreckten und in seiner Längsrichtung transportierten Werkstückes nur ein Gehäuse 1 gezeigt, welches in seinem unteren Bereich einen Vorratsbehälter 2 mit einem schrägen Boden 3 zur Aufnahme des Beschichtungsmediums besitzt. Oberhalb des Vorratsbehälters 2 weist das Gehäuse 1 eine Öffnung 4 auf, über die Luft in den unteren Bereich des Gehäuses 1 einströmen kann. Diese Luft stammt aus einer Vakuumkammer, in der auf langgestreckte Werkstücke auf zumindestens einen Teil der Oberfläche ein Beschichtungsmedium aufgetragen wird. Die aus der Vakuumkammer abgesaugte und über die Öffnung 4 in das Gehäuse 1 einströmende Luft enthält somit fein zerstäubtes Beschichtungsmedium und unter Umständen auch Staub. Dieser Staub kann dadurch in den Luftstrom gelangen, daß aufgrund des Vakuums in der Vakuumkammer auch Luft angesaugt wird.In this drawing is of a device for applying a Coating medium on at least a partial surface of an elongated and in its longitudinal direction transported workpiece shown only a housing 1, which in its lower part a reservoir 2 with an oblique Has bottom 3 for receiving the coating medium. Above the storage tank 2, the housing 1 has an opening 4, via the air in the lower Area of the housing 1 can flow. This air comes from one Vacuum chamber in which on elongated workpieces on at least a part the surface of a coating medium is applied. The from the Vacuum chamber sucked and flowing through the opening 4 in the housing 1 Air thus contains finely atomized coating medium and possibly also Dust. This dust can get into the air stream, that due to the Vacuum in the vacuum chamber and air is sucked.

Mit geringem Abstand hinter der Öffnung 4 befindet sich im Gehäuse 1 ein sogenanntes Prallblech 5, welches nach unten in Richtung auf den Vorratsbehälter 2 gerichtet ist und die einströmende Luft nach unten umlenkt. Oberhalb des Vorratsbehälters 2 und des Prallbleches 5 ist eine geneigte Zwischenplatte 6 vorgesehen, in die ein Lochblech 7, beispielsweise aus Edelstahl, eingesetzt ist. Oberhalb der Zwischenplatte 6 befindet sich ein erster Zwischenboden 8, in den ein auswechselbarer und beispielsweise regenerierbarer Luftfilter 9 eingesetzt ist. Mit Abstand oberhalb des ersten Zwischenbodens 8 befindet sich ein zweiter Zwischenboden 10, der mit einer Vielzahl von Öffnungen 11 versehen ist. Jede Öffnung 11 wird von einem kurzen, rohrförmigen Stutzen 12 umschlossen, der seinerseits zur Aufnahme eines hülsenartigen Filterstabes 13 dient. Jeder Filterstab 13 ist in vorteilhafter Weise zweischichtig ausgebildet und besteht aus einer inneren, feinmaschigen Auffangschicht und einer äußeren, grobmaschigen Drainageschicht aus Borosilikatglasfasern. Die hülsenartigen Filterstäbe 13 sind an ihrem dem zweiten Zwischenboden 10 abgewandten Ende, also oben, geschlossen ausgebildet. At a small distance behind the opening 4 is in the housing 1 a so-called baffle plate 5, which downwards in the direction of the reservoir. 2 is directed and deflects the incoming air down. Above the Reservoir 2 and the baffle plate 5 is provided an inclined intermediate plate 6, in which a perforated plate 7, for example made of stainless steel, is used. Above the intermediate plate 6 is a first intermediate floor 8, in the one interchangeable and, for example, regenerable air filter 9 is used. With Distance above the first shelf 8 is a second Intermediate bottom 10, which is provided with a plurality of openings 11. each Opening 11 is enclosed by a short, tubular nozzle 12, the in turn serves to receive a sleeve-like filter rod 13. Every filter rod 13 is advantageously formed in two layers and consists of an inner, fine-meshed collecting layer and an outer, coarse-meshed drainage layer made of borosilicate glass fibers. The sleeve-like filter rods 13 are at their the second intermediate bottom 10 facing away from the end, that is, above, closed formed.

Oberhalb der Filterstäbe 13 endet das Gehäuse 1 und geht in eine Öffnung 14 über, an die beispielsweise eine Vakuumleitung angeschlossen sein kann.Above the filter rods 13, the housing 1 ends and merges into an opening 14, to which, for example, a vacuum line can be connected.

Der über die Öffnung 4 in den unteren Bereich des Gehäuses 1 eintretende Luftstrom wird nun zunächst durch das Prallblech 5 nach unten abgelenkt, bevor er wieder nach oben durch das Lochblech 7 strömt. Damit wird einerseits der Luftstrom umgelenkt während andererseits die Luft expandiert, was zwangsläufig eine Verringerung der Strömungsgeschwindigkeit der Luft mit sich bringt. Dadurch werden in der eingetretenen Luft vorhandene Partikel des Beschichtungsmediums direkt abgeschieden und gelangen wieder in den Vorratsbehälter 2. Jetzt strömt die Luft durch den Staubfilter 9. Dabei werden in der Luft eventuell enthaltene Staubpartikel ausgefiltert. Der Luftfilter 9 ist entweder als auswechselbarer Filter ausgewechselt und kann erneuert werden. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, einen regenerierbaren und damit mehrfach verwendbaren Filter einzusetzen.The entering via the opening 4 in the lower region of the housing 1 Airflow is now deflected first by the baffle plate 5 down before he again flows up through the perforated plate 7. Thus, on the one hand, the air flow On the other hand, the air is expanding, which inevitably causes a change Reducing the flow velocity of the air brings. This will be In the air entered particles of the coating medium directly separated and get back into the reservoir 2. Now the air flows through the dust filter 9. This will eventually be contained in the air dust particles filtered out. The air filter 9 is replaced either as a replaceable filter and can be renewed. However, it is also possible to have a regenerable and to use reusable filter.

Die durch den Staubfilter 9 des Zwischenbodens 8 nach oben strömende Luft gelangt nun in die Öffnungen 11 des zweiten Zwischenbodens 10 und durchströmt dann die hülsenartigen Filterstäbe 13 aus Borosilikatglasfasern. Dabei fungiert die innere Schicht der hülsenartigen Filterstäbe als sogenannte feinmaschige Auffangschicht für einen eventuell in der Luft enthaltenen, beispielsweise aus Aerosolteilchen bestehenden Ölnebel. Diese Aerosolteilchen koalisieren an den feinen Glasfaserfäden der inneren Schicht zu größeren Tröpfchen und werden durch die äußere, grobmaschige Drainagelage nach außen abgeführt. Hier vereinigen sich diese Tröpfchen zu größeren Flüssigkeitstropfen, die dann durch die Schwerkraft nach unten fließen und von dem Zwischenboden 10, der als Sammeleinrichtung wirkt, aufgefangen werden. Die sich auf dem Zwischenboden 10 sammelnde, ölige Flüssigkeit kann beispielsweise über eine Leitung 15 mit Ventilen 16, 17 in einem Behälter 18 aufgefangen werden. Die hier aufgefangene Flüssigkeit kann, je nach Bedarf, aufbereitet oder direkt in den Vorratsbehälter 2 zurückgeführt werden. Alternativ kann hier auch eine Zellenradschleuse eingesetzt werden.The air flowing upwards through the dust filter 9 of the intermediate bottom 8 now passes into the openings 11 of the second intermediate bottom 10 and flows through then the sleeve-like filter rods 13 made of borosilicate glass fibers. It acts the inner layer of the sleeve-like filter rods as so-called fine-meshed Collecting layer for a possibly contained in the air, for example Aerosol particles existing oil mist. These aerosol particles coalesce at the fine glass fiber strands of the inner layer become larger droplets and become through the outer, coarse mesh drainage layer discharged to the outside. Here unite these droplets to larger drops of liquid, which are then by gravity flow down and from the intermediate floor 10, which serves as a collector acts, be caught. The collecting on the shelf 10, oily Liquid can, for example via a line 15 with valves 16, 17 in a Container 18 to be caught. The liquid collected here can, depending on Needed, recycled or returned directly to the reservoir 2. Alternatively, a rotary feeder can also be used here.

In Abänderung des erläuterten Ausführungsbeispieles ist es möglich, die hülsenartigen Filterstäbe 13 aus Borosilikatglas direkt hinter beziehungsweise oberhalb dem Lochblech 7 anzuordnen. Der erste Zwischenboden 8 mit dem Staubfilter 9 entfällt dann. Ferner ist es möglich, die Filterstäbe 13 aus Borosilikatglas in einem getrennten Gehäuse anzuordnen.In a modification of the illustrated embodiment, it is possible to sleeve-like filter rods 13 made of borosilicate glass directly behind or to arrange above the perforated plate 7. The first intermediate floor 8 with the Dust filter 9 then deleted. It is also possible, the filter rods 13 made of borosilicate glass to be arranged in a separate housing.
