Abstract:
Various embodiments concern a sprayer having a blower that outputs a HVLP flow of air into a hose, the hose connecting with a spray gun. A pressure sensor measures pressure of the HVLP air within the hose via a tube that branches from a fitting to which the hose connects. If the sensor indicates that the pressure level has increased above a threshold amount, indicating that the trigger of the spray gun is not being actuated, then power output to the blower is reduced (e.g., stopped). HVLP air is trapped within the hose by two valves when the trigger is not actuated. When the sensor indicates that the pressure level has decreased, corresponding to release of the trapped HVLP air into the gun for spraying by actuation of the trigger, power to the blower is increased (e.g., resumed).

Abstract:
Systems and methods that provide or restore a coating to a component are provided. The systems and methods utilized an atomizing spray device. A slurry that comprises a fluid and ceramic particles, and a gas are supplied to the atomizing spray device. The slurry and gas are discharged from the spray device to form two-phase droplets. The fluid within the droplets evaporates to prevent the fluid from becoming part of the coating as the droplets traverse through the air and prior to impacting the surface of the component.
Abstract:
A nozzle arrangement for a spray gun, in particular a paint spray gun, has at least one paint nozzle and an air cap. The paint nozzle has at least one outlet opening for the material to be sprayed and the air cap has at least one central opening which is bounded by at least one wall. The at least one wall forms a gap with at least one part of the paint nozzle, and a forward part of the paint nozzle has at least an inner face, an outer face and an end face. The end face of the paint nozzle encloses, at least in certain regions, an angle of greater than 90° or an angle of less than 90° with an outer face or an inner face of the paint nozzle. In the nozzle arrangements, the back-pressure counter to the outflow of the material to be sprayed is lower than in prior art nozzles. A spray gun, in particular a paint spray gun, having such a nozzle arrangement is also disclosed.

Abstract:
An adhesive dispensing module and method of spraying a plurality of droplets of a liquid adhesive includes a dispenser assembly and a nozzle. The nozzle includes a nozzle body, a dispersion baffle, and at least one channel. The nozzle body includes a nozzle outlet for discharging a liquid adhesive and at least partially defines a gas inlet, a gas outlet, and a gas passage extending therebetween. The dispersion baffle is positioned within the gas passage to define a dispersion chamber and a consolidation chamber. The at least one channel extends through the dispersion baffle to fluidly connect the dispersion chamber to the consolidation chamber to restrict the pressurized gas received within the dispersion chamber and distribute the pressurized gas into the consolidation chamber according to a predetermined flow distribution. Thereby, the pressurized gas sprays a plurality of droplets of the liquid adhesive according to a predetermined pattern.
Abstract:
The present invention is to provide a paint spray-gun housing structure, in particular an innovative design to improve atomization result in spraying paint, mainly a protruding installation at internal edge of the flank section on both sides of spray-gun housing for expanding diameter in the outer section of atomization airflow channel, in particular to expand diameter horizontally oval hole in order to add at least two atomizing holes at the wider and thicker position near the base of the flank section, and enable the atomizing holes aligned in horizontal direction, thereby the atomization airflow passing through the two flank sections of the spray-gun housing is directed to spit out from the atomizing hole, in particular for the paint spitted from the center of the spray-gun housing to form still wider and more even results, so that while expanding and adding the spraying area the spraying quality can be maintained.

Abstract:
A nozzle and aircap for spray guns is described comprising a nozzle with a screw-threaded end for threaded engagement with to a spray gun. The front of the nozzle has a shoulder with a hexagonal central boss and eight holes forming passages for air passing through the spray gun. The boss tapers to a projecting fluid discharge end of the nozzle with a radius measuring 0.117 inch (2.971 mm). The discharge end extends with a straight parallel nozzle outlet for a distance of 0.0311 inch (0.787 mm). The discharge outlet of the nozzle is spaced rearwardly from the leading face of the aircap (0.1533 mm), and a central aperture is chamfered toward the leading face of the aircap and has an axial depth of 0.021 inches (0.533 mm).

A fluid tip for use with a spray gun. The fluid tip comprises an air cap and a paint nozzle. The air cap comprises an inner surface 206 and the paint nozzle comprises an outer surface 208. The inner and outer surfaces define sides of an air channel 203. The inner and outer surfaces are defined by contours, each contour terminating to form an air channel outlet 207 for discharging an air jet proximal a paint nozzle outlet of the paint nozzle. The contours are configured to provide a velocity profile 400 across the air channel outlet 207 of an air flow 401 through the air channel 203 in which velocities of air radially closer to the paint nozzle outlet are substantially higher than velocities radially further from the paint nozzle outlet.
