Definitions

  • the invention relates to a painting device for a flat, a narrow side exhibiting workpiece with a workpiece holder which fixes the workpiece, and a displaceable by a movement drive and the narrow side of the workpiece against alignable paint dispensing device.
  • a flat workpiece such as a sheet metal
  • This lacquered sheet metal can either be a lacquered metal sheet or a sheet that is wound onto a coil when painted.
  • the workpiece is at the predominant Part of its surface painted. Unpainted and thus unprotected remain the edges resulting from punching, which form the narrow side.
  • the painting of such a narrow side is not yet solved technically satisfactory.
  • the area that the paint needs to hit is relatively narrow. As a result, increased demands are placed on the accuracy of the paint delivery device. One would also like to avoid that additional paint on already painted surfaces. Accordingly, the paint dispenser can not apply the paint with any excess to hit the narrow side.
  • WO 97/34707 A1 shows a painting system with color changing containers.
  • the containers are held in a magazine and transferred from there into a painting robot, which forms part of a paint spraying system.
  • the paint spraying system can be housed within a spray booth.
  • the color is output via any spraying device, for example with the aid of an electrostatic spraying device, which sprays electrically conductive coating material.
  • the paint spraying device is brought to a high electrical voltage.
  • the invention has for its object to paint targeted only the narrow side of a flat workpiece.
  • This object is achieved in a painting of the type mentioned fact that the paint dispensing device emits the paint atomized, the movement drive the paint dispensing device with a distance of 0.2 to 10 cm between an output port of the paint dispenser and the narrow side leads and the paint dispenser is connected to a high voltage generating device which generates a voltage difference between the paint dispenser and the workpiece.
  • the non-sputtered state is possible on the narrow side of a flat workpiece, for example on the edge produced during a stamping process, with a high level of reliability and accuracy.
  • the paint dispenser is at a relatively small distance of 0.2 Up to 10 cm led to the narrow side, which facilitates the flexibility of handling.
  • the electric field between the paint dispenser and the bare, so unpainted cutting edge of the workpiece causes the targeted guidance of the paint exactly on this cutting edge, while the already painted side surfaces are not painted.
  • Even with a smaller lateral offset between the paint dispenser and the narrow side the non-sputtered paint jet emitted by the paint dispenser still gets to the narrow side because it follows the electric field. Due to the small distance between the paint dispenser and the workpiece, the high voltage used can be kept relatively low, so that on the one hand requires very small additional electrical currents and on the other hand, the risk potential for operators remains small.
  • the paint dispensing device is connected to a paint source containing a thixotropic-adjusted paint.
  • a thixotropically adjusted lacquer is initially flowable, i. it can be dispensed by the paint dispenser in liquid or pasty form. As soon as it comes to rest on the narrow side of the workpiece, its fluidity decreases relatively quickly, so that it can no longer flow down from the narrow side and contaminate other areas of the workpiece.
  • the paint is solvent-free. So you do not have to wait until a solvent evaporates or escapes in some other way before the paint has the desired properties and especially at the point to which it has been applied.
  • the paint source is connected to the movement drive and has a metering device which outputs an output quantity as a function of a speed predetermined by the movement drive.
  • a metering device which outputs an output quantity as a function of a speed predetermined by the movement drive.
  • the dispensing opening is preferably arranged at the tip of a hollow needle.
  • the tip of the hollow needle is preferably beveled, but preferably also sharp-edged.
  • a hollow needle can be designed with a relatively small outer diameter, so that you can get to the hollow needle on areas of the workpiece that are otherwise difficult to access. With the aid of a hollow needle so you can also paint narrow sides of sheets that have a more complicated outer contour after punching.
  • a hollow needle also has a dispensing opening, which is also relatively small depending on the outer diameter of the hollow needle. So you created a very thin paint beam or stream, the non-atomized due to the electric field with high reliability the narrow side hits. In this way, the painting of the narrow side of a workpiece is specifically possible. The sharper the hollow needle is, the better its suitability as an electrode.
  • the voltage generating device has a current limiting device which limits a current intensity to a maximum of 0.7 mA.
  • This embodiment has two advantages. On the one hand, the energy consumption is kept small because the voltage generating device consumes a maximum of 10 to 40 watts depending on the voltage used. On the other hand, a hazard to operators is excluded because a limited current of 0.7 mA according to international standards is considered safe to touch.
  • the current limiting device is designed as an ohmic resistor.
  • An ohmic resistance is easy to control. He has a low risk of damage.
  • the movement drive is designed as a robot, the output opening perpendicular to the narrow side of the workpiece leads. This ensures that you always apply a sufficient and precisely dosed amount of paint on the narrow side. The painting conditions are kept the same over the entire length of the narrow side.
  • a deburring device is connected to the paint dispensing device. If the workpiece is punched from a sheet that is subtracted from a coil or present as a sheet, then in some cases punching burrs that impede the paint job. In particular, there is the risk that such burrs lead to corona discharges and change the electric field, so that the paint does not reach the narrow side with the necessary reliability.
  • a deburring device with the paint dispensing device, you take advantage of the fact that the movement drive of the paint dispensing device is already programmed for the right path to paint the narrow side. It is then easy to guide the deburring device along the same path and deburr the workpiece.
  • deburring may be performed in a first pass where the combined device is guided along the narrow side of the workpiece, at least in an area where painting is desired later.
  • the deburring device is then deactivated and the paint is dispensed through the paint dispensing device.
  • the deburring device has a pressing device which is a deburring element presses against the workpiece in the region of its narrow side.
  • a pressing device which is a deburring element presses against the workpiece in the region of its narrow side.
  • Fig. 1 schematically shows a painting device 1 with a paint dispensing device 2, which is handled by a robot 3.
  • the robot 3 serves as a movement drive for the paint dispensing device 2, ie it is in able to guide the paint dispenser 2 along a predetermined path of movement.
  • a controller 4 in which the trajectory is stored in machine-readable form.
  • the painting device 1 serves to paint a workpiece 5 on its narrow side 6, so to provide it with paint.
  • the remaining areas of the workpiece 5 are already painted here, for example, in that the workpiece 5 has been previously punched out of a pre-painted sheet, which was wound on a coil.
  • the workpiece holder 7 fixes the workpiece 5 such that its narrow side is held in a defined position and the paint dispensing device 2 can be held and guided by the robot 3 with respect to the narrow side 6 of the workpiece 5 in a favorable position for the application.
  • the paint dispensing device 2 is in FIGS. 2 and 3 shown in more detail. It has a holder 9, by which it is connected to the robot 3.
  • the paint dispensing device 2 has a hollow needle 10, at the tip 11 of which a dispensing opening 12 is provided.
  • the discharge opening has a diameter which corresponds approximately to a thickness of the narrow side 6 of the workpiece 5. Deviations are permitted.
  • the paint dispensing device 2 is guided by the robot 3 so that the dispensing opening 12 occupies a distance D to the narrow side 6, which is in the range of 0.2 to 10 cm. This is also possible with end faces 6, which have a course deviating from a straight line, because the robot 3 can move the paint dispensing device 2 in several degrees of freedom.
  • the paint dispensing device 2 is connected to a paint source 13, which has a storage vessel 14 which contains a preferably thixotropically adjusted paint 15. Of course, the paint 15 can also be supplied in other ways.
  • the storage vessel 14 is connected to a metering pump 16, which conveys the paint 15 of the paint dispenser.
  • a channel 17 is provided, which can be closed by a valve 18. When the valve 18 is opened, the lacquer 15 passes through the hollow needle 10 to the dispensing opening 12.
  • Fig. 2 schematically shows the controller 4, which controls the movement of the paint dispenser 2 via the robot 3.
  • the controller 4 also controls the paint source 13 in such a way that the metering pump 16 outputs a desired output quantity of the paint 15 per unit time as a function of edge width, required layer thickness and movement speed of the paint dispenser on the edge of the workpiece 5.
  • the amount of paint dispensed onto the narrow side 6 of the workpiece 5 can be limited so that, in principle, no paint surplus arises, which could flow down from the narrow side 6 of the workpiece 5.
  • the preferably thixotropic adjustment of the paint ensures that the paint applied to the narrow side 6 can still flow down after a short rest period.
  • the paint dispenser 2 is further connected to a high-voltage generator 19, which generates a voltage difference between the paint dispenser 2 and the workpiece 5, which is on the order of 5 to 40 kV.
  • a current limiting device 20, for example, an ohmic resistance limits a current flow even at the specified voltage differences to a maximum of 0.7 mA.
  • the paint dispensing device 2 has a deburring device 21, which can be moved together with the hollow needle 10 and thus together with the dispensing opening 12 relative to the workpiece 5.
  • the deburring device 21 is thus along the same Trajectory moves, as well as the output port 12.
  • the controller 4 is programmed so that the robot 3 moves the discharge opening as well as the Entgratungs Rhein 21 on the same path, on the one hand to deburr the narrow side 6 of the workpiece 5 and then on the other hand also to paint ,
  • only two movements of the combination of paint dispensing device 2 and deburring device 21 are necessary, namely a first movement sequence for deburring the workpiece 5 and a second sequence of movements for applying the paint.
  • the two movements can be done in the same direction. But it is also possible to carry out the deburring on a "way out” and to apply the paint on a "return journey".
  • the deburring and painting of the workpiece edge can also take place during the same sequence of movements.
  • the deburring device 21 has a deburring element 22, which may be formed, for example, as a rotating driven grinding stone. But it is also possible to use as a deburring 22 a file, a scraping edge, a knife or the like.
  • the Entgratungselement 22 is suspended on a lever arm 23 which can be pivoted about a pivot point 24 on the paint dispenser 2, under the action of an actuator 25 which can press the Entgratungselement 22 with a certain bias against the workpiece 5.
  • the actuator 25 may be formed, for example, as a pneumatic cylinder.
