Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of duct processing technology, and in particular to a spraying device for pressure-resistant composite ducts. Background Technology
[0002] In ventilation duct systems, pressure-resistant composite ducts are widely used in high-rise buildings, subway tunnels, industrial plants, and other applications requiring high airflow pressure stability due to their lightweight, high strength, and excellent sealing performance. To ensure that the ducts do not deform or leak under long-term high-pressure airflow impact, traditional spraying equipment only focuses on spraying pressure-resistant coatings (such as polyurethane, epoxy resin, or ceramic matrix composites) onto the inner wall of the duct to enhance structural rigidity and improve fatigue resistance, easily neglecting the spraying treatment of the outer wall of the duct.
[0003] Currently, most ductwork exterior coating is done manually using handheld sprayers. During the spraying process, paint can splatter, creating a poor working environment that can negatively impact the health of workers and increase labor intensity. Furthermore, handheld spraying can lead to uneven coating in certain areas of the ductwork, resulting in inconsistent coating thickness on the exterior wall and affecting its pressure resistance and sealing performance.
