Abstract: A changing device for coating media, including supply units that each have at least one inlet connection connectable to a reservoir, and an outlet connection, between which a flow channel extends. A coupling unit has an input connection and an output connection, connectable to an application device, between which input connection and output connection a through-channel extends. The coupling unit is movable in a positioning movement direction relative to the supply units by a positioning device. The input connection of the coupling unit is complementary to the outlet connections of the supply units so that the input connection of the coupling unit is movable in a coupling movement direction relative to one of the supply units and can be coupled to or disconnected from the outlet of the supply unit. The positioning device only moves the coupling unit in a plane in which the coupling movement direction also lies.

Abstract: A changing device for coating media having a plurality of supply units. The device includes an electric valve device with each supply unit having an electric valve unit which opens and closes a flow channel through which a medium may be supplied in response to a control signal. The valve device includes a control system which has a switching device for each supply unit, each switching device selectively allowing or blocking a control signal from reaching a respective valve unit. The valve device also includes a triggering device which is carried by at least one coupling unit which couples the plurality of supply units to an application device. The triggering device triggers the switching device to allow the control signal through to a supply unit when the coupling unit is connected to the supply unit in a fluid-tight manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a changeover device for coating media having a plurality of supply units, each of which has at least one inlet, which can be connected to a reservoir, and an outlet, wherein a flow channel extends between the inlet and the outlet. At least one coupling unit which can be moved relative to the supply units has an entry and an exit which can be connected to an application device, wherein a through channel extends between the entry and the exit. The entry of the coupling unit is complementary to the outlets of the supply units so that the entrance of the coupling unit can be coupled to the outlet of one of the supply units and can be separated again therefrom. The coupling unit is designed as a pigging station. The invention further relates to a coating system for coating objects having such a changeover device.

Abstract: A changing device for coating media having a plurality of supply units each having at least one inlet connection, which can be connected to a reservoir for the medium, and an outlet connection, between which a flow channel extends. At least one coupling unit is present which has an input connection and an output connection, which can be connected to an application device, between which input connection and which output connection a through-channel (44) extends. The coupling unit is moveable relative to the supply units by a positioning device. The input connection can be coupled fluid-tight to the outlet connection of a supply unit. A valve device is present, in which each supply unit includes a valve unit which releases the flow channel in a released configuration and closes in a closed configuration and is controllable by a control signal in the released configuration.
