Abstract: Disclosed is a work booth safety system for an automotive body repair shop including a work booth with a ventilation system for evacuation of polluted air and an entrance closed or opened by a door or drape. The work booth is configurable into three different work modes: 1) For preparative dent repair, the entrance is kept open and electrical sockets and compressed air supply is deactivated. Ventilation air flow is mainly directed in a horizontal direction and evacuated through a wall ventilation outlet duct. 2) For spray application of a body sanding foundation, the entrance is closed and electrical sockets are deactivated, the compressed air supply is activated, and the ventilation air flow matches that of work mode 1. 3) For welding, the entrance is closed and electrical sockets are activated. The compressed air supply is deactivated and the ventilation air flows vertically upward through a roof ventilation outlet duct.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an arrangement for drying paint or lacquer on a product, which arrangement is intended to be disposed in a suitable installation space with a support surface for processing the product. The arrangement comprises a drying arch with drying elements extending over the installation space. The drying arch is divided into two arch segments, wherein the two arch segments are mounted at a respective one of two sides opposing each other of the installation space, on a respective actuating unit. The actuating units are arranged at the support surface and comprise, on the one hand, means for moving the actuating unit with its arch segment along its side of the installation space, and, on the other hand, means for tilting the arch segment mounted to the actuating unit at the respective side of the installation space, as well as means for displacing the arch segment mounted to the respective actuating unit outward and inward relative to the installation space and the opposite side thereof.

Abstract: The invention refers to a filter for an exhaust air box (2) between a space (1) containing powder mixed air and an outlet opening (2a), and where the filter is arranged to be passed by a flow of exhaust air, and to thereby capture the major part of powder carried in the flow of exhaust air, whereby the filter incorporates a portion (10) consisting of a multi-stage bed of balls of light expanded clay (10a) arranged on a grate-formed carrier (9a), the openings of which are of a size 9 which allows the carrier (9a) to serve as base for the balls (10a) without letting individual balls pass, and by which a network of labyrinth-formed passages mutually between the balls (10a) and between the balls (10a) and the grate-formed carrier (9a). The invention also refers to a method for cleaning such filter material, which incorporates tumbling of the material.
