Abstract

The rotary atomizing coating device ( 1 ) is provided with a spray head ( 2 ) formed of a tube body having a circular truncated conical shape and constituted to spray, from an opening end on the large diameter side, a coating introduced from an opening end on the small diameter side thereof, and a coating supply machine ( 3 ) engaged with the spray head ( 2 ) for supplying the coating while rotating the spray head ( 2 ) around an axial line (O). The spray head ( 2 ) has a first coating diffusion part ( 28 ) having a curved surface with a convex shape towards the axial line (O) on the inner peripheral surface, and a second coating diffusion part ( 29 ) extending to an outer edge ( 26 ) of the opening end on the large diameter side having a curved surface with a concave shape towards the axial line (O) with grooves ( 4 ) on the outer edge ( 26 ).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A rotary atomizing coating device comprising a spray head formed of a tube body having a circular truncated conical shape and configured so as to spray, from an opening end on a large diameter side, a coating introduced from an opening end on a small diameter side thereof, and a coating supply machine engaged with the opening end on the small diameter side of the spray head for supplying the coating to inside of the spray head while rotating the spray head around an axial line of the tube body,
wherein
the spray head includes a first coating diffusion part configured by a curved surface with a convex shape towards the axial line of the tube body on an inner peripheral surface, a second coating diffusion part extending from the first coating diffusion part to an outer edge of the opening end on the large diameter side of the tube body and configured by a curved surface with a concave shape towards the axial line, and a tapered part provided at the small diameter side of the tube body relative to the first coating diffusion part,
wherein the second coating diffusion part has grooves provided at the outer edge,
a hub part is provided inside the spray head,
the hub part includes a projection end part which projects to an inner side of the tapered part in a radial direction of the tube body,
a taper angle between the tapered part and the axial line is 45° or less, and the taper angle between the tapered part and the axial line is constant along an entirety of the tapered part,
the projection end part is provided with a coating outlet hole which is open to an outer periphery of the projection end part, formed continuously with the tapered part, and provides the coating supplied from the coating supply machine to the tapered part,
the tapered part terminates at a location of the hub part while maintaining the taper angle, the location of the hub part being on the small diameter side relative to the coating outlet hole,
the outer periphery of the projection end part extends along the tapered part, and
the coating outlet hole discharges the coating to the tapered part.

2. The rotary atomizing coating device according to claim 1 , wherein
a boundary of the first coating diffusion part and the tapered part is positioned closer to the opening end of the large diameter side of the tube body than the hub part in a direction of the axial line of the tube body, and
an inclined line of the tapered part in a cross section of the inner peripheral surface of the spray head passing through the axial line is expressed by a tangential line of the first coating diffusion part at the boundary of the cross section.

3. The rotary atomizing coating device according to claim 1 , wherein the coating outlet hole discharges the coating directly to the tapered part.

4. The rotary atomizing coating device according to claim 1 , wherein an angle of the outer periphery of the projection end part of the hub part with respect to the axial line is 45° or less.

5. The rotary atomizing coating device according to claim 1 , wherein the outer periphery of the projection end part is parallel to the taper angle of the tapered part.

6. A rotary atomizing coating device comprising a spray head formed of a tube body having a circular truncated conical shape and configured so as to spray, from an opening end on a large diameter side, a coating introduced from an opening end on a small diameter side thereof, and a coating supply machine engaged with the opening end on the small diameter side of the spray head for supplying the coating to inside of the spray head while rotating the spray head around an axial line of the tube body,
wherein
the spray head includes a first coating diffusion part configured by a curved surface with a convex shape towards the axial line of the tube body on an inner peripheral surface, a second coating diffusion part extending from the first coating diffusion part to an outer edge of the opening end on the large diameter side of the tube body and configured by a curved surface with a concave shape towards the axial line, and a tapered part provided at the small diameter side of the tube body relative to the first coating diffusion part,
wherein the second coating diffusion part has grooves provided at the outer edge,
a hub part is provided inside the spray head,
the hub part includes a projection end part which projects to an inner side of the tapered part in a radial direction of the tube body,
a taper angle between the tapered part and the axial line is 45° or less, and the taper angle between the tapered part and the axial line is constant along an entirety of the tapered part,
the projection end part is provided with a coating outlet hole which is open to an outer periphery of the projection end part, formed continuously with the tapered part, and provides the coating supplied from the coating supply machine to the tapered part,
the outer periphery of the projection end part extends along the tapered part and is parallel to the taper angle of the tapered part,
the coating outlet hole discharges the coating to the tapered part.
