Abstract
Abstract An electrostatic spray coating method where an electrical field is generated between a spray gun and an object for electrostatically attracting the paint to the object for coating the same. A positive or negative voltage is preliminarily applied to the object through a clamping device disposed on a floor face of a spray booth with the spraying system for spraying the paint from the spray gun being electrically grounded while the object is maintained electrically insulated by suspending it from a hanger rod with an insulator of a hanger conveyor type installed in the spray booth.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
116 words
An electrostatic spray coating method where an electrical field is generated in a spraying system between a spray gun and an object to be sprayed, said method comprising the steps of: (a) grounding said spraying system; (b) electrically insulating said object by suspending said object from a hanger rod with an insulator of a hanger conveyor type installed in a spray booth; (c) connecting a clamping device disposed on a floor face of the spray booth to said object; and (d) impressing a high voltage on said object by a high-voltage generator via said clamping device which transmits the voltage while clamping said object for electrostatically attracting the paint to the object for coating said object.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
116 words
An electrostatic spray coating method where an electrical field is generated in a spraying system between a spray gun and an object to be sprayed, said method comprising the steps of: (a) grounding said spraying system; (b) electrically insulating said object by suspending said object from a hanger rod with an insulator of a hanger conveyor type installed in a spray booth; (c) connecting a clamping device disposed on a floor face of the spray booth to said object; and (d) impressing a high voltage on said object by a high-voltage generator via said clamping device which transmits the voltage while clamping said object for electrostatically attracting the paint to the object for coating said object.
