Coating agent device and coating device
Various exemplary illustrations of a coating agent device are disclosed. In one example, a coating agent device may be a coating agent valve, e.g., for influencing the discharge of a coating agent. The coating agent device may include a plug-in or pluggable fastening base configured to facilitate a plug-in or pluggable mounting of the coating agent device. In some examples, the coating agent device may prevent relative rotation of the device relative to a mating component.
1. A coating agent valve device for influencing a discharge of a coating agent, comprising:
a mounting socket that is pluggable to a housing of a coating device that is at least one of an atomizer and a color changer; and
a plurality of outwardly guided valve needles disposed within the pluggable socket, each of the valve needles arranged to be received in a valve seat of the coating device.
2. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the pluggable-mounting socket is provided to couple output of the coating agent valve device to the coating device.
3. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the pluggable mounting socket is at least one of latchable and snapable by at least one of a latching arrangement and snapping arrangement.
4. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting socket includes at least one rotation securement feature configured to prevent rotation of the pluggable mounting socket relative to a mating component.
5. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the pluggable mounting socket includes a bayonet connection.
6. The coating agent valve device according to claim 5 , wherein the bayonet connection is selected from the group consisting of a symmetrical bayonet connection, and asymmetrical bayonet connection and a bayonet connection provided with a bayonet thread, which is laterally at least partially flattened.
7. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein a wall of the pluggable mounting socket is provided for rotation securement with an at least partially circumferential annular groove or holding ledge.
8. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein a wall of the pluggable mounting socket has a thread for rotation securement, and wall portions of the wall which are thread-free or provided with flatter thread flights and thread flanks compared to other wall portions of the wall extend in the axial direction of the pluggable mounting socket, arranged in a rotationally symmetrical manner or in a rotationally asymmetrical manner.
9. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting socket is configured to hold a coating agent device, whose wall is provided with a thread, whose pitch lies within a pitch range of between 1 and 3.
10. The coating agent valve device according to claim 9 , wherein the thread comprises rounded thread flanks and rounded thread flights under a rounding inclination angle of +/−10°.
11. The coating agent valve device according to claim 9 , wherein the wall has axially extending thread-free portions.
12. The coating agent valve device according to claim 9 , which has an output for discharging the coating agent, wherein the mounting socket is provided to couple the output to a coating device.
13. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , further comprising a drive interface for coupling a drive device, wherein the drive interface has an elongated cross section.
14. The coating agent valve device according to claim 13 , wherein the cross section is at least partially oval and is formed to arrange a plurality of coating agent valve devices of the same type next to each other in an at least partially form-fitting manner.
15. The coating agent valve device according to claim 13 , wherein the drive interface has at least two convex fastening regions arranged in a diagonally mirrored manner for mechanically holding the coating agent valve device.
16. The coating agent valve device according to claim 13 , wherein the drive interface has at least one control input for receiving a drive signal of the drive device for driving a valve needle of the coating agent valve device.
17. The coating agent valve device according to claim 13 , wherein a cross section of a housing of the coating agent valve device arranged downstream of the drive interface at least partially takes up the cross section of the drive interface.
18. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein at least two valve needles of the plurality of valve needles have a different geometric shape.
19. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein at least two valve needles of the plurality of valve needles can be operated independently of each other or together.
20. The coating agent valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the valve needles are arranged in parallel.
