Abstract

A spray gun adjusting device is configured to adjust a spray angle and a height of a spray gun. The spray gun adjusting device includes a laser with a spot and a scale plate. The scale plate includes an angle scale plate and a height scale plate. A distance between the laser and a center of the scale plate can be determined according to an intersection scale of the spot and the height scale plate, and an angle of the laser and the scale plate can be determined according to an intersection scale of the spot and the angle scale plate. A spray angle and a height of the spray gun are adjusted according to the intersection scales of the spot and the scale plate.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A spray gun adjusting device configured to adjust a spray angle and a height of a spray gun in a sand blasting apparatus, the spray gun adjusting device comprising:
a laser positioned on the spray gun;
a fastening assembly configured to fasten the laser to the spray gun; and
a scale plate;
wherein the fastening assembly comprises a main body, a location pin positioned on the main body, a plurality of latching members positioned around the location pin, and a fastening member opposite to the location pin;
wherein the scale plate comprises an angle scale plate and a height scale plate, the height scale plate is positioned on the angle scale plate, and the height scale plate comprises a notch;
wherein the angle scale plate can be rotated relative to the height scale plate to make a plurality of scales of the angle plate be located in the notch;
wherein a plurality of emitting light of the laser forms a rectangular spot on the scale plate;
wherein a distance between the laser and a center of the scale plate is determined according to an intersection scale of the spot and the height scale plate, and an angle of the laser and the scale plate is determined according to an intersection scale of the spot and the angle scale plate;
wherein a spray angle and a height of the spray gun relative to the scale plate are adjusted according to the intersection scales of the spot and the scale plate; and
wherein the notch is defined on an edge of the height scale plate and extends to a center of the height scale plate.

2. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a plurality of height scales are labeled on the height scale plate along a direction perpendicular to the notch.

3. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the height scales are centrosymmetrical relative to a center of the height scale plate.

4. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the angle scale plate comprises a plurality of radial lines centered a center of the angle scale plate.

5. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein a plurality of angle scales correspond to a height scale.

6. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the laser is positioned on the fastening member.

7. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sand blasting apparatus further comprises a conveyer belt, a sand blasting mechanism, an adjusting assembly located at a side of the conveyer belt, and a fixture positioned on the conveyer belt.

8. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the spray gun is positioned on an end of the adjusting assembly.

9. The spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the adjusting assembly comprises a plurality of connecting rods, the connecting rods are pivotal and connected to each other configured to adjust the spray angle and the height of the spray gun.

10. An adjusting method of a spray gun adjusting device comprising:
placing a scale plate on a center of a fixture, and fastening a laser to a spray gun by a fastening assembly;
overlapping a cross cursor of the laser and a center of the scale plate, and adjusting a height of the spray gun to a determined value according to an intersection scale of a spot of the laser and a height scale plate of the scale plate; and
rotating one radial line with a plurality of angle scale values into a notch of the height scale plate according to the determined height value of the spray gun, and adjusting a spray angle of the spray gun to a determined value according to an intersection scale of the spot and an angle scale plate of the scale plate.

11. The adjusting method of the spray gun adjusting device as claimed in claim 10 , wherein height scale plate is positioned on the angle scale plate.
