Abstract
Abstract A coating is applied to a workpiece by ejecting a powdered material towards the workpiece using the energy of explosion in a recurrent cyclical operation. To produce an explosion, introduced into a combustion chamber of a detonation gun are a powdered coating material suspended in the stream of an inert gas and a gaseous explosive mixture formed by mixing a combustible gas and an oxidizing gas with or without an addition of an inert gas. During the coating process the explosive mixture is formed continuously, and cyclically filling the combustion chamber by portions of the explosive mixture is accomplished by feeding the inert gas to the pipe connecting the mixing chamber to the combustion chamber, which enables regular termination of the stream of explosive mixture and prevents the flame from spreading to the mixing chamber.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
183 words
A method of applying a powdered coating material to a substrate utilizing the explosive energy of combustion gases for ejecting the powdered material towards the substrate in a current cyclic operation comprising: (a) continuously and constantly supplying to a mixing chamber a combustible gas and an oxidizing gas in a predetermined ratio during the coating process, thereby forming an explosive mixture. (b) introducing portion-wise the powdered material, in a stream of an inert gas and said explosive mixture, freely into a combustion chamber of an apparatus for coating by detonation waves, the introduction of said coating material being synchronized with the operation cycle of said apparatus for coating; (c) terminating the supply of explosive mixture to the combustion chamber solely by intorduction of an inert gas intermediate the mixing chamber and the combustion chamber at a pressure greater than that of the explosive mixture, thus preventing the flow of explosive mixture into the combustion chamber; (d) igniting said explosive mixture in the combustion chamber to produce an explosion after a portion of the powdered material has been introduced completely into the combustion chamber.
