  • Cyclone separator particularly for a powder recovery device of a powder coating system
    Patent number: 12090494
    Abstract: A cyclone separator for a powder recovery device of a powder coating system includes an inlet region with an inlet for a mixed flow of powder/air, a separation region adjoining the lower end region of the inlet region for the centrifugal separation of at least a portion of the powder contained in the mixed flow, and a powder collecting region connected or connectable to the lower end region of the separation region for collecting the powder separated in the separation region. The powder collecting region is shiftable relative to the separation region between a first position in which the powder collecting region is aligned in flush connection with the lower end region of the separation region and a second position in which the powder collecting region is not aligned in flush connection with the lower end region of the separation region.
