[0002] Coating spraying, as a key process in surface engineering, is widely used in industries such as automotive manufacturing, building decoration, and industrial protection. Among them, suspension coatings composed of liquid carriers and micron / submicron solid particles occupy an important position in the preparation of functional coatings such as heat insulation, corrosion protection, and fireproofing due to their high hiding power and functional particle loading characteristics.

Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an automatic spraying module provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an automatic batching module provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an automatic gas distribution module provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. See also... Figures 1 to 4 The automatic spraying system includes: an automatic spraying module 1, comprising a mixing tank 10, a diaphragm pump 11, and a spray gun 12, wherein the outlet of the mixing tank 10 is connected to the inlet of the diaphragm pump 11 via a first paint pipe 20, and the outlet of the diaphragm pump 11 is connected to the spray gun 12 via a second paint pipe 21; an automatic batching module 2, having a powder outlet 50 and a water outlet 51, wherein the powder outlet 50 is used to output powder to the mixing tank 10, and the water outlet 51 is used to output water to the mixing tank 10, the first paint pipe 20, and the second paint pipe 21, and can clean the mixing tank 10, the first paint pipe 20, and the second paint pipe 21 in both the direction of paint flow and the direction of paint flow; and an automatic gas distribution module 3, used to output gas to the diaphragm pump 11 and the spray gun 12.
[0031] In this embodiment, an automated paint spraying operation can be completed by setting up an automatic spraying module 1, an automatic batching module 2, and an automatic air distribution module 3. The outlet 51 of the automatic batching module 2 can output water to the mixing tank 10, the first paint pipe 20, and the second paint pipe 21, and can clean the mixing tank 10, the first paint pipe 20, and the second paint pipe 21 both in the direction of paint flow and against the direction of paint flow. That is, water can thoroughly clean along multiple flow directions, which can reduce the probability of fixed particles in the paint settling and causing pipe blockage, thereby improving the reliability of the automatic spraying system and ensuring high spraying quality.
[0032] Optionally, the automatic spraying system can spray a special non-metallic refractory suspension for use on silicon steel surfaces.
[0033] In other embodiments, the automatic spraying system may also spray other types of suspensions, which are not limited in this disclosure.
[0034] Optionally, the automatic spraying module 1 further includes two anti-settling filters, namely a first anti-settling filter 13 and a second anti-settling filter 14. The first anti-settling filter 13 is disposed in the first paint pipe 20, which includes a first sub-pipe 201 and a second sub-pipe 202. The inlet of the first anti-settling filter 13 is connected to the outlet of the mixing tank 10 through the first sub-pipe 201, and the outlet of the first anti-settling filter 13 is connected to the inlet of the diaphragm pump 11 through the second sub-pipe 202. The second anti-settling filter 14 is disposed in the second paint pipe 21, which includes a third sub-pipe 211 and a fourth sub-pipe 212. The inlet of the second anti-settling filter 14 is connected to the outlet of the diaphragm pump 11 through the third sub-pipe 211, and the outlet of the second anti-settling filter 14 is connected to the spray gun 12 through the fourth sub-pipe 212.
[0035] By installing a first anti-settling filter 13 in the first paint pipeline 20 and a second anti-settling filter 14 in the second paint pipeline 21, during automatic paint spraying, the paint flows sequentially from the mixing tank 10 through the first anti-settling filter 13, the diaphragm pump 11, and the second anti-settling filter 14, and is then sprayed through the spray gun 12. This anti-settling filter effectively filters out large particles in the paint, reducing the likelihood of pipeline blockage and further improving the reliability of the automatic spraying system.
[0036] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an anti-sedimentation filter provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 6 This is a front view of an anti-sedimentation filter provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 7 yes Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure at section line AA. (See also...) Figures 5 to 7 The anti-sedimentation filter includes a housing 151, a filter screen 152, a stirring blade 153, a rotating shaft 154, and a motor 155. The filter screen 152 is disposed within the housing 151, forming a first cavity 156. A second cavity 157 is formed between the filter screen 152 and the housing 151. The inlet of the anti-sedimentation filter is sequentially connected to the first cavity 156, the second cavity 157, and the outlet of the anti-sedimentation filter. The stirring blade 153 is disposed in the second cavity 157. One end of the rotating shaft 154 is connected to the stirring blade 153, and the other end of the rotating shaft 154 is rotatably connected to the output shaft of the motor 155 via a synchronous belt 158. In this way, as the paint flows from the inlet to the outlet of the anti-sedimentation filter, it can be filtered by the filter screen 152 to prevent large particles of powder from flowing out of the first chamber 156. Then the paint enters the second chamber 157 and is stirred by the stirring blades 153, which can ensure the suspension of the paint and reduce the aggregation and sedimentation of solid particles. This further reduces the deposition and residue of paint in the automatic spraying system, which helps to extend the maintenance cycle of the automatic spraying system and improve its lifespan and reliability.
[0037] For example, housing 151 is a cylindrical housing.
[0038] Optionally, see Figures 1 to 4 The outlet 51 is connected to the main cleaning pipe 220. The main cleaning pipe 220 is connected to the first sub-pipe 201 via the first cleaning pipe 221, the main cleaning pipe 220 is connected to the second sub-pipe 202 via the second cleaning pipe 222, and the main cleaning pipe 220 is connected to the fourth sub-pipe 212 via the third cleaning pipe 223. The outlet 51 is connected to the inlet of the mixing tank 10 via the inlet pipe 24. The mixing tank 10, the first anti-sedimentation filter 13, and the second anti-sedimentation filter 14 all have drain ports. In this way, water can thoroughly clean each pipe and component along multiple flow directions, thereby reducing the chance of pipe blockage.
[0039] Optionally, the drain outlet of the mixing tank 10 is connected to the first drain pipe 231, the drain outlet of the first anti-sedimentation filter 13 is connected to the second drain pipe 232, and the drain outlet of the second anti-sedimentation filter 14 is connected to the third drain pipe 233. Normally closed electric ball valves are installed in the first drain pipe 231, the second drain pipe 232, the third drain pipe 233, the first cleaning pipe 221, the second cleaning pipe 222, and the third cleaning pipe 223. A normally closed electric ball valve is installed in the water inlet pipe 24.
[0040] For example, a first normally closed two-way electric ball valve 30 is installed in the first sewage pipe 231, a second normally closed two-way electric ball valve 31 is installed in the second sewage pipe 232, a third normally closed two-way electric ball valve 32 is installed in the third sewage pipe 233, a fourth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 33 is installed in the first cleaning pipe 221, a fifth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 34 is installed in the second cleaning pipe 222, a sixth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 35 is installed in the third cleaning pipe 223, and a ninth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 38 is installed in the water inlet pipe 24. By installing multiple normally closed electric ball valves, the opening and closing of each pipe can be automatically controlled, which is beneficial to realize automatic batching and mixing, automatic spraying and automatic cleaning, thereby improving the automation level of the automatic spraying system. Furthermore, by opening and closing each normally closed electric ball valve, localized and graded cleaning of the automatic spraying system can be achieved, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning effect.
[0041] For example, the first sewage pipe 231, the second sewage pipe 232 and the third sewage pipe 233 are all connected to the main sewage outlet.
[0042] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the cleaning water provided by the water outlet 51 can have the following seven cleaning modes:
[0043] The first method involves opening the ninth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 38, allowing cleaning water to flow from the outlet 51 through the inlet pipe 24 into the mixing tank 10 for stirring. Then, the first normally closed two-way electric ball valve 30 is opened, allowing cleaning water to be discharged from the first drain pipe 231, cleaning the mixing tank 10 in the direction of the paint flow. After cleaning, the first normally closed two-way electric ball valve 30, the ninth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 38, and the stirring motor of the mixing tank 10 are closed, and the supply of cleaning water is stopped.
[0044] The second method involves opening the fourth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 33. Cleaning water flows sequentially from outlet 51 through the main cleaning pipe 220, the first cleaning pipe 221, and the first sub-pipe 201 into the mixing tank 10 for stirring. Then, the first normally closed two-way electric ball valve 30 is opened, and cleaning water is discharged from the first drain pipe 231, flowing against the direction of the coating to clean the portion of the first sub-pipe 201 and the mixing tank 10. After cleaning, the first normally closed two-way electric ball valve 30, the fourth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 33, and the stirring motor of the mixing tank 10 are closed, and the supply of cleaning water is stopped.
[0045] The third method involves opening the fourth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 33 and the second normally closed two-way electric ball valve 31. Cleaning water flows sequentially from the outlet 51 through the main cleaning pipe 220, the first cleaning pipe 221, the first sub-pipe 201, and the first anti-sedimentation filter 13, then exits through the second drain pipe 232, cleaning the portion of the first sub-pipe 201 and the first anti-sedimentation filter 13 in the direction of the paint flow. After cleaning, the second normally closed two-way electric ball valve 31 and the fourth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 33 are closed, and the water supply for cleaning is stopped.
[0046] Fourthly, open the fifth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 34 and the second normally closed two-way electric ball valve 31. Cleaning water flows sequentially from the outlet 51 through the main cleaning pipe 220, the second cleaning pipe 222, the second sub-pipe 202, and the first anti-sedimentation filter 13, and then exits from the second drain pipe 232. The water flows against the direction of the coating flow to clean the portion of the second sub-pipe 202 and the first anti-sedimentation filter 13. After cleaning, close the second normally closed two-way electric ball valve 31 and the fifth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 34, and stop the supply of cleaning water.
[0047] Fifthly, open the fifth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 34 and the third normally closed two-way electric ball valve 32. Simultaneously, the automatic gas distribution module 3 outputs gas to the diaphragm pump 11. Cleaning water flows from the outlet 51 sequentially through the main cleaning pipe 220, the second cleaning pipe 222, the second sub-pipe 202, the diaphragm pump 11, the third sub-pipe 211, and the second anti-sedimentation filter 14, and then is discharged from the third drain pipe 233. Following the flow direction of the paint, the second sub-pipe 202, the diaphragm pump 11, the third sub-pipe 211, and the second anti-sedimentation filter 14 are cleaned. After cleaning, close the third normally closed two-way electric ball valve 32 and the fifth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 34, and stop the supply of cleaning water and gas to the diaphragm pump 11.
[0048] The sixth method involves opening the sixth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 35 and the third normally closed two-way electric ball valve 32. Cleaning water flows sequentially from the outlet 51 through the main cleaning pipe 220, the third cleaning pipe 223, the fourth sub-pipe 212, and the second anti-sedimentation filter 14, then exits through the third drain pipe. The water flows against the flow direction to clean the portion of the fourth sub-pipe 212 and the second anti-sedimentation filter 14. After cleaning, the third normally closed two-way electric ball valve 32 and the sixth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 35 are closed, and the water supply for cleaning is stopped.
[0049] The seventh method involves opening the sixth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 35, simultaneously supplying gas to the spray gun 12 via the automatic gas distribution module 3. Cleaning water flows sequentially from the outlet 51 through the main cleaning pipe 220, the second cleaning pipe 223, and the fourth sub-pipe 212, before being sprayed out from the spray gun 12. This water flows in the direction of the paint flow, cleaning the portion of the fourth sub-pipe 212 and the spray gun 12. After cleaning, the sixth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 35 is closed, and the supply of cleaning water and gas to the spray gun 12 is stopped.
[0050] It should be noted that, since the nozzle of the spray gun 12 is relatively small, when cleaning the automatic spraying system, the spray gun 12 can be cleaned last after the first to sixth cleaning methods are completed. This can reduce the risk of the nozzle of the spray gun 12 being blocked by fixed particles carried by the sewage during the upstream cleaning process.
[0051] Optionally, a first planar membrane pressure sensor 39 is installed in the first sewage discharge pipe 231, and the first planar membrane pressure sensor 39 is located between the mixing tank 10 and the normally closed electric ball valve in the first sewage discharge pipe 231. A second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 and an electromagnetic flow meter 41 are sequentially installed in the fourth sub-pipe 212, the second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 being located between the second anti-sedimentation filter 14 and the third cleaning pipe 223, and the electromagnetic flow meter 41 being located between the third cleaning pipe 223 and the spray gun 12.
[0052] The first planar membrane pressure sensor 39 can monitor the blockage during the cleaning process of the mixing tank 10. The second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 and the electromagnetic flow meter 41 can monitor the blockage of the automatic spraying system. For example, if the first planar membrane pressure sensor 39 does not detect pressure during the cleaning process of the mixing tank 10, it indicates that the drain port of the mixing tank 10 or the first sub-pipe 201 near the mixing tank 10 is blocked. If the second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 detects pressure during the spraying operation, but the electromagnetic flow meter 41 does not detect flow, it indicates that the section of the fourth sub-pipe 212 from the second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 to the spray gun 12 is blocked. If the second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 does not detect pressure and the electromagnetic flow meter 41 does not detect flow during the spraying operation, it indicates that the paint path upstream of the second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 to the mixing tank 10 is blocked.
[0053] For example, the mixing tank 10 is provided with an overflow port, which is connected to the overflow pipe 25.
[0054] For example, the inner walls of the mixing tank 10 and the inner walls of each pipe are provided with a Teflon coating. This reduces the chance of coating adhesion.
[0055] For example, each pipeline can use mostly straight pipes to reduce bends or twists, and multiple inspection ports can be set in the pipelines to facilitate maintenance and repair.
[0056] For example, a seventh normally closed two-way electric ball valve 36 is provided in the first sub-pipe 201, and the seventh normally closed two-way electric ball valve 36 is located between the first cleaning pipe 221 and the first anti-sedimentation filter 13. An eighth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 37 is provided in the fourth sub-pipe 212, and the eighth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 37 is located between the electromagnetic flowmeter 41 and the spray gun 12.
[0057] Optionally, the automatic batching module 2 also includes a feeding port 52 and a water supply port 53. The feeding port 52 is connected to the powder outlet 50 via a feeding pipe 54, in which a vibrating screen 541 and a twin-screw loss-in-weight scale 542 are sequentially installed. The water supply port 53 is connected to the water outlet 51 via a water supply pipe 55, in which a manual ball valve 551, a turbine flow meter 552, and a normally closed electric ball valve are sequentially installed. For example, the water supply pipe 55 may contain a manual ball valve 551, a turbine flow meter 552, and a tenth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 553.
[0058] The vibrating screen 541 can filter large solid powder particles, the twin-screw loss-in-weight scale 542 can measure the weight of solid powder required in the batching according to the proportion, the manual ball valve 551 can be manually controlled to open and close during maintenance to control the water supply at the water inlet 53, and the turbine flow meter 552 can measure the water required in the batching according to the proportion. During automatic spraying and automatic cleaning, the opening and closing of the water outlet 51 can be automatically controlled by the tenth normally closed two-way electric ball valve 553.
[0059] It should be noted that only one feeding pipe 54 and one water supply pipe 55 are provided in this embodiment. In other embodiments, more feeding pipes 54 or water supply pipes 55 may be provided as needed. This disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0060] In this embodiment, the turbine flow meter 552, the second planar membrane pressure sensor 39, and the electromagnetic flow meter 40 work together to monitor blockages and accurately locate them, thereby reducing the difficulty of troubleshooting blockages. For example, if the second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 does not detect pressure and the electromagnetic flow meter 41 does not detect flow during the spraying process, it indicates that the paint path from the second planar membrane pressure sensor 40 to the mixing tank 10 is blocked. In this case, the first to sixth cleaning methods described above can be used for cleaning. If the turbine flow meter 552 does not detect flow during the cleaning process, it indicates that the pipeline being cleaned by that cleaning method is blocked.
[0061] Optionally, the automatic gas distribution module 3 has a gas supply port 60, a first gas outlet 61, and a second gas outlet 62. The gas supply port 60 is connected to the main gas supply pipeline 630, in which a first two-position three-way manual valve 640, a water-gas separator 643, and a gas pressure sensor 644 are sequentially arranged. The main gas supply pipeline 630 is connected to the first gas outlet 61 through the first gas supply pipeline 631, and the main gas supply pipeline 630 is connected to the second gas outlet 62 through the second gas supply pipeline 632. The first gas outlet 61 is connected to the air inlet of the diaphragm pump 11, and the second gas outlet 62 is connected to the air inlet of the spray gun 12.
[0062] The first two-position three-way manual valve 640 allows for manual control of the opening and closing during maintenance to control the air supply to the air supply port 60. The water-air separator 643 can reduce the moisture in the gas output by the automatic air distribution module 3, ensuring high spraying quality. The gas pressure sensor 644 can monitor the air supply pressure in the main air supply pipeline 630. The first air supply pipeline 631 and the second air supply pipeline 632 can supply air independently to the diaphragm pump 11 and the spray gun 12 respectively.
[0063] Optionally, a first piezoelectric proportional valve 645, a first two-position three-way solenoid valve 647, and a second two-position three-way manual valve 641 are sequentially arranged in the first gas supply pipeline 631. A second piezoelectric proportional valve 646, a second two-position three-way solenoid valve 648, and a third two-position three-way manual valve 642 are sequentially arranged in the second gas supply pipeline 632.
[0064] The first piezoelectric proportional valve 645 controls the air supply pressure to the diaphragm pump 11 in the first air supply pipe 631. The first two-position three-way solenoid valve 647 automatically controls the opening and closing of the air supply to the diaphragm pump 11. The second two-position three-way manual valve 641 allows for manual control of the opening and closing of the first air outlet 61 during maintenance. The second piezoelectric proportional valve 646 controls the air supply pressure to the spray gun 12 in the second air supply pipe 632. The second two-position three-way solenoid valve 648 automatically controls the opening and closing of the air supply to the spray gun 12. The third two-position three-way manual valve 642 allows for manual control of the opening and closing of the second air outlet 62 during maintenance.
[0065] For example, the gas pressure sensor 644, the first piezoelectric proportional valve 645, the second piezoelectric proportional valve 646, the first two-position three-way solenoid valve 647, and the second two-position three-way solenoid valve 648 can upload the gas supply data of the automatic gas distribution module 3 to the central control terminal in real time, which is conducive to realizing the efficient automation of the gas distribution function.
[0066] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of this disclosure and is not intended to limit this disclosure. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this disclosure should be included within the protection scope of this disclosure.
