  • Patent number: 10605529
    Abstract: An installation has a process chamber defining an inner space having a tunnel-like form defining a receiving region for workpieces. The process chamber has a portal for the supply or discharge of workpieces and has a device for introducing gaseous fluid into the inner space. The device has a nozzle for producing a fluid stream curtain between the portal and the receiving region. A device supplies fresh air introduced into the receiving region at a side of the fluid stream curtain facing away from the portal. The installation has a pivotable guide contour projecting into the inner space and the nozzle or aperture is in the form of a slot which supplies the gaseous fluid to the inner space via the ceiling with a flow direction oblique relative to the floor. The gaseous fluid supplied via the nozzle to the inner space is guided on the guide contour.

  • Publication number: 20170209891
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for removing wet paint overspray from an outgoing air flow (120) containing over-spray particles. The device separates wet paint over-spray from an over-spray particle contained in an exhaust air stream (120). The overspray particles in the exhaust air stream (120) are formed during the painting at an application area (108) of a painting installation (100). The device (126) comprises of at least one separation apparatus for separating the over-spray from the exhaust air stream (120). The separation apparatus includes a regeneratable surface filter (146) and the flow path of the exhaust air stream (120) from the application area (108) to a separating device (145) having at least one narrowed area (146). The central direction of flow of the exhaust air stream (120) remains essentially preserved in passing by the narrowed area (140).

  • Patent number: 9616370
    Abstract: In order to provide a method of introducing auxiliary material into the flow path of a crude gas stream charged with wet-paint overspray before the crude gas stream passes through at least one filter element for separating the overspray from the crude gas stream, with which method an introduction of auxiliary material into the application region of a paint shop is reliably prevented even in the event of incorrect operation, a method is proposed, which comprises the following method steps: detecting whether there is an adequate crude gas flow through the at least one filter element; and blocking the introduction of auxiliary material into the flow path of the crude gas stream if it is determined that there is not an adequate crude gas flow.
