Abstract
A liquid spray for depositing a coating on a surface of a substrate includes a support bracket and a liquid atomizer operatively connected to the support bracket to spray a liquid spray system also includes an auxiliary air nozzle operatively connected to the support bracket to spray a stream of air to meet the liquid spray just above the surface of the substrate. The support bracket is positioned at a predetermined angle relative to the surface of the substrate for depositing a liquid spray coating on the surface of the substrate.
Claims20
A liquid spray system for depositing a coating on a surface of a substrate comprising:
- a support bracket;
- a single liquid atomizer operatively connected to said support bracket to spray a liquid spray;
- and
- an auxiliary air nozzle operatively connected to said support bracket to spray a stream of air to meet the liquid spray just above the surface of the substrate, wherein said support bracket is positioned at a predetermined angle relative to the surface of the substrate and traversed across the surface of the substrate for depositing a liquid spray coating on the surface of the substrate.
A liquid spray system for depositing a coating on a surface of a substrate comprising:
- a support bracket;
- a liquid atomizer operatively connected to said support bracket to spray a liquid spray;
- an auxiliary air nozzle operatively connected to said support bracket to spray a stream of air to meet the liquid spray just above the surface of the substrate, wherein said support bracket is positioned at a predetermined angle relative to the surface of the substrate for depositing a liquid spray coating on the surface of the substrate;
- and
- a front transvector mounted to said support bracket and positioned in front of said liquid atomizer.
A liquid spray system for depositing a coating on a surface of a substrate comprising:
- a support bracket;
- a liquid atomizer operatively connected to said support bracket to spray a liquid spray;
- a front transvector mounted to said support bracket and positioned in front of said liquid atomizer and having an aperture extending therethrough to receive and guide the liquid spray;
- and
- an auxiliary air nozzle operatively connected to said support bracket to spray a stream of air to meet the liquid spray just above the surface of the substrate, wherein said support bracket is positioned at a predetermined angle relative to the surface of the substrate for depositing a liquid spray coating on the surface of the substrate.
A liquid spray system for depositing a coating on a surface of a substrate comprising:
- a support bracket;
- a liquid atomizer operatively positioned above and connected to said support bracket to spray a liquid spray;
- a front transvector mounted to said support bracket and positioned in front of said liquid atomizer and having an aperture extending therethrough to receive and guide the liquid spray;
- an entrance cone extending rearwardly from said front transvector and positioned a predetermined distance from said liquid atomizer, said entrance cone having a throat extending therethrough and communicating with said aperture, said aperture having a rounded exit end;
- and
- an auxiliary air nozzle operatively positioned below and connected to said support bracket to spray a stream of air to meet the liquid spray just above the surface of the substrate, wherein said support bracket is positioned at a predetermined angle relative to the surface of the substrate for depositing a liquid spray coating on the surface of the substrate.
