Abstract
Abstract Electrostatic spraying apparatus comprises a rotary spraying head and a multiple electrode arrangement which includes two high voltage electrodes one of which has an uninsulated portion, and a grounded electrode. A paint flow space is defined between the uninsulated portion and the grounded electrode as well as the remainder of the one high voltage electrode and the grounded electrode. The second high voltage electrode is spaced outwardly from the grounded electrode and has an insulating layer both on its outer side and on its side facing the grounded electrode.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
125 words
Electrostatic spraying apparatus comprising a spraying head, a multiple electrode arrangement forming part of said head and including two high voltage electrodes one of which has at least a portion that is uninsulated; a further electrode that is grounded; a paint flow space in said head defined partly by said uninsulated portion of one of the high voltage electrodes and by said grounded electrode, the other of said high voltage electrodes being spaced outwardly from the grounded electrode and being provided with an insulating layer both on its outer side and on its side facing said grounded electrode; and, an insulated airflow blade ring formed and electrically connected as a high voltage electrode, the blade ring being mechanically connected to the outer high voltage electrode.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
125 words
Electrostatic spraying apparatus comprising a spraying head, a multiple electrode arrangement forming part of said head and including two high voltage electrodes one of which has at least a portion that is uninsulated; a further electrode that is grounded; a paint flow space in said head defined partly by said uninsulated portion of one of the high voltage electrodes and by said grounded electrode, the other of said high voltage electrodes being spaced outwardly from the grounded electrode and being provided with an insulating layer both on its outer side and on its side facing said grounded electrode; and, an insulated airflow blade ring formed and electrically connected as a high voltage electrode, the blade ring being mechanically connected to the outer high voltage electrode.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
Apparatus according to claim 1, wherein one of the two high voltage electrodes extends beyond the other in the direction of paint flow.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
117 words
