Patent number: 10486175Abstract: A paint spraying machine includes an apparatus for containing and removing the leakage of paint drops from a rotating joint, without the risk of damaging the article being sprayed, and thus without the need for downtime to replace sealing elements. The rotating joint includes a hollow shaft for distributing paint, a drum including a plurality of flanges that define separate chambers for different paints, a plurality of seals for separating the different paints in the different chambers which together form a high-pressure circuit, a low-pressure circuit to refrigerate the seals, improve their sealing and possibly intercept leaking paint, and a plurality of centering rings provide for correct assembly of the seals and the correct alignment of different flanges. The rings are hollow, and allow for the passage of the refrigerating/cleaning liquid under low pressure.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2017Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: Cefla Societa' CooperativaInventors: Cristian Pungetti, Stefano Chiarini
