  • Patent number: 3970035
    Abstract: Apparatus and method for electrostatically depositing a layer of particulate material on a substrate surface from a gaseous suspension of particulate, thermoplastic material. Classifying means removes oversized particles from a supply of particulate, thermoplastic material and feeds properly-sized particulate material to a metering feed device. A pressure responsive sensing means is associated with the metering feed device, and energizes a control circuit associated with the classifying means to direct properly-sized particulate material from the classifying means into the metering feed device to maintain a substantially constant, predetermined amount of properly-sized particulate material in the metering feed device.
