An electrostatic coating device that can suppress the arising of corrosion in insulating members and the like surrounding coating material supply and discharge paths because of leakage arising between the paths. An electrostatic coating device is characterized by being provided with: a body part; a head part; a linking part that links the body part and the head part; a coating material path that is a first path disposed from the body part to the head part, wherein a high-voltage is applied along with the coating material (first fluid) being fed; a washing fluid path that is a second path disposed from the body part to the head part, wherein a washing fluid (second fluid) is fed along with a connection to a ground; and a displacement part for displacing all or part of air retained between the coating material path and a washing fluid path with new air.

Electrostatic coating device

A grounding dissipation unit for a paint delivery apparatus for delivering paint is disclosed. The paint delivery apparatus includes a first paint line for carrying paint from a canister, a second paint line for carrying paint to an ionizing applicator for electrically charging paint, a first water line for carrying water to a grounding source, a second water line carrying water to the grounding dissipation unit, and a third water line for carrying water to a dump. The grounding dissipation unit includes a core made of an electrically conductive material. A paint bore in the core connects the paint lines, and a water bore in the core connects to the water lines to ground the system. The paint bore and water bore do no intersect within the core.

Energy dissipation unit for high voltage charged paint system

In an electrostatic coating apparatus, an electrically conductive coating material is supplied through a coating material supplying path to a coating gun to which a high voltage is applied. The electrostatic coating apparatus is provided with an insulating and separating valve capable of electrically insulating and separating the coating material supplying path into an application side in which the high voltage is applied and a non-application side. The insulating and separating valve is provided with a female coupling member having a first connecting portion and a male coupling member having a second connecting portion. A supplying hole for supplying a cleaning fluid to the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion and a discharging hole for discharging the cleaning fluid supplied to the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are provided on one of the female coupling member disposed on the non-application side and the male coupling member.
