Abstract: An atomizer for mounting on an output shaft of a motor to be rotated by the motor includes a front surface, a back surface, a coating material cup into which coating material to be atomized by the atomizer is dispensed, and at least one passageway from the cup to the front surface to permit the flow of coating material from the cup to the front surface as the atomizer is rotated. The front surface terminates at a discharge edge from which the coating material is discharged as the atomizer is rotated. The atomizer/shaft comprises an electrically conductive first electrode, an electrically non-conductive portion, and a semiconductive coating provided on the back surface. The semiconductive coating terminates adjacent the edge.

Abstract: An adjustable position mechanism is provided for selectively varying the position of a first member relative to a second member. This adjustable position mechanism includes a support, and an elongated arm projecting from the support and having a plurality of locking elements in a linearly spaced array for defining a plurality of increments of position and a guide. An actuator has cooperating locking elements of complementary form to the locking elements of the arm, a moveable element for selectively moving the cooperating locking elements into and out of engagement with the locking elements of the arm, and a cooperating guide engageable with the guide of the arm for guiding reciprocal longitudinal movement of the actuator relative to the arm. A housing is coupled with the first member and with the actuator for operatively coupling the first member to move reciprocally with the actuator relative to the arm.
