Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for impregnating an item, preferably a garment such as a coat, a jacket, a shirt or a pair of trousers, optionally other fabric-like textile such as tents, tarpaulins, hoods for vehicles or vessels. The apparatus comprises an inner support for supporting the garment or other fabric-like textile. The inner support has an electrically conducting surface and an electrically conducting outer cover for covering the garment or other fabric-like textile when supported by the inner support. The apparatus also comprises means for applying an electrostatic field between the electrically conducting surface of the inner support and the electrically conducting outer cover, and nozzles for providing an impregnating agent between the electrically conducting surface of the inner support and the electrically conducting outer cover, from the outer cover towards the garment or other fabric-like textile.

The apparatus also comprises means for applying an electro static field between the electrically conducting surface of the inner support and the electrically conducting outer cover, and nozzles for providing an impregnating agent between the electrically conducting surface of the inner support and the electrically conducting outer cover, from the outer cover towards the garment or other fabric-like textile.

Abstract: Apparatus for applying an impregnating agent onto surfaces of footwear at least comprising a right item and a left item, where said apparatus has a treatment chamber, where an openable and closable door is provided, said door allowing access to the interior of said treatment chamber for placing items to be impregnated inside said treatment chamber, and where adjacent the bottom of said treatment chamber means for placing the footwear at approximate determined positions are provided and where at least five nozzles are arranged in said treatment chamber, where said nozzles are able to create and issue a mist of impregnating agent, such that first and second nozzles are arranged to direct the mist to a zone of the footwear in the determined position corresponding to the front area of the right item respectively left item, and a third nozzle is positioned behind and between the determined position of the right item respectively left item, which third nozzle directs the impregnating mist towards a zone of the foot

Abstract: A method and apparatus for surface treatment of footwear, bags, gloves, other leather items or leather-like items. The method includes optional covering a surface or a part of the items which are not to be treated; optional selecting time of operation of a spraying unit; placing items to be treated in a chamber; shutting the chamber and thereby manually or automatically initiating; activating the spraying unit for forming a mist of impregnating agent inside the chamber for applying impregnating agent onto the surfaces of the items; activating an air pump, ventilator or corresponding means for removal of excess impregnating agent from the chamber; and retaining excess impregnating agent in a filter which preferably is a filter containing activated carbon.
