Patent number: 11300283Abstract: A light assembly coupled to a spray gun for spraying electrostatically charged coating material is disclosed. The spray gun includes a gun body comprising a barrel, a nozzle assembly extending from the barrel in a longitudinal direction, a voltage multiplier, and an actuator assembly configured to transition the voltage multiplier between an activated state and a deactivated state. The light assembly includes a light and circuitry electrically connected to the light. The circuitry is configured to supply electrical energy inductively obtained by the circuitry to the light when the voltage multiplier is in the activated state. The light assembly can also include a housing, a lens cover releasably attached to the housing, and a control member for changing a characteristic of the light.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2021Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: Nordson CorporationInventors: Terrence M.

Publication number: 20060219807Abstract: A material or color changer has a common feed passage that is connected to two or more inlet passages. The common feed passage can be reverse purged in a direction that is opposite a direction of powder flow through the common feed passage. A valve element seals a supply port that connects the inlet passage to the common feed passage to eliminate dead space and form a near bore line seal. The valve element is an elastic material that expands in response to applied compressed air inside the valve element. A remote activation function may be provided to facilitate initiating a color change procedure. In one embodiment, the remote activation function may be a pneumatic foot switch, while in another embodiment it may be an electrical switch, such as a membrane switch for example, mounted on a spray gun.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 5, 2006Publication date: October 5, 2006Inventors: Terrence Fulkerson, Terry Thompson, Jeffery Dailidas, Kenneth Kreeger, Joseph Schroeder

Publication number: 20050126476Abstract: A material supply for a material application system such as a powder coating application system includes a feed hopper in the form of a duct. The duct is connectable to negative pressure during a color change process and is disconnected from the negative pressure during a spray application process. The negative pressure can be provided from a powder overspray recovery system such as an after filter blower. Dampers are provided to control air flow through the hopper duct and to allow the duct to be at ambient pressure during a supply mode of operation. The hopper duct also includes a suction interface for pumps, in the form of a siphon ring, as well as a fluidizing function. A removable sieve is provided with an optional vibration feature. Powder may be added to the duct via an access door or transfer pumps for new powder and/or reclaimed powder overspray.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 17, 2004Publication date: June 16, 2005Applicant: NORDSON CORPORATIONInventors: Jeffrey Shutic, Donald Urig, Terrence Fulkerson, William Rehman, Michael Thomas, Brian Mather, Joseph Schroeder, Michael Bordner, Jeffery Dailidas

Publication number: 20040016832Abstract: A spray gun includes a handle portion and an extension portion. A nozzle is connected with an outer end of the extension portion. An electrode assembly is disposed in the extension portion to establish an electrical field to electrostatically charge particles of coating material. A coating material flow control member and a purge air flow control member are disposed on the handle portion. Operation of either one of the two flow control members actuates a membrane switch assembly. Operation of the purge air flow control member directs the flow of air to the coating material passage in the extension portion to remove excess coating material from the passage and from the nozzle. Different size hand grips may be mounted on the handle portion of the spray gun to accommodate operators having hands of different sizes.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2003Publication date: January 29, 2004Inventors: Joseph G. Schroeder, Jeffery Dailidas
