Latest Patents
One of Ohno's latest patents is an electrostatic paint sprayer. This device includes a body member that defines a paint passage for flowing liquid paint supplied from a paint source. The nozzle assembly is adapted to be mounted to the end of the body member, allowing fluid communication with the paint passage. It features a plurality of electrode pins disposed around the axis and electrically connected to an electric power source. The nozzle assembly also includes a paint orifice for discharging the supplied paint along an axis, along with multiple atomizing air orifices for discharging atomizing air to atomize the paint dispensed through the paint orifice. Additionally, it has shaping orifices for discharging shaping air to form the paint into a predetermined pattern.
Another notable patent is a voltage block device and an electrostatic coating system that incorporates this device. The voltage block device prevents the negative electric potential from being transferred to the coating material source. It features a switching device with a slider that can be selectively slidable between first and second positions. This device includes an inlet port fluidly communicated with the coating material source and an outlet port fluidly communicated with the spray. The reservoir consists of first and second chambers, allowing fluid communication with the inlet and outlet ports depending on the slider's position.
