Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0314049A2] The invention relates to a spray gun with electrokinetic charging of powder material for the purpose of electrostatically coating workpieces with a powder coating. The plastic powder to be applied is charged whilst flowing through, by pneumatic means, an annular gap- shaped insulating channel, by superimposing ionisation processes on tribo-electrical effects, the said ionisation processes being triggered by the said effects at a passive ionisation electrode. <??>According to the invention, the elongate flow baffle arranged in the insulating material channel has one or more sections which consist of electrically semi-conductive material, or have such a surface, and are electrically insulated from the ionisation electrode and from one another. As a result, the effective range of the influencing ioniser is extended, the powder charge is increased and spark-like sliding discharges in the flow channel as well as flashovers of the channel wall are prevented. <IMAGE>
