DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THE COATING OF A SURFACE AREA OF A GAP IN THE COATING OF A PIPELINE

摘要

The present invention is for coating a surface area of a gap in the coating of a pipeline, said surface area having a length along the central longitudinal axis of the pipeline and a width of at least part of the circumference of the pipeline. The device according to the invention comprises: a frame (3); a spray nozzle support element (33) supporting a number of spray nozzles (35); a linear motion mechanism (39) configured for translating the spray nozzle support element relative to the frame and parallel to a longitudinal axis of the frame (9); and support members (15,16,17,19) configured for arranging the frame stationary relative to the pipeline (13) with said longitudinal axis of said frame coinciding with the central longitudinal axis (9) of the pipeline;
