METHOD AND DEVICE FOR COATING GLASS CONTAINER WITH COATING MATERIAL

摘要

Improved apparatus for coating containers having a minimal separation between the body and the finish region comprises a coating hood and means for supplying coating materials to the coating. The improvement consists of a controlled non-turbulent air supply (18) directed downward across the coating-material stream (12). A blower (19) provides process air to a plenum (22), and an angled attenuator plate with a plurality of small holes distributes the process air evenly, to avoid standing waves and regions of high or low air velocity. Several attenuator plates can be juxtaposed to permit removal of particulates by movement of the plates relative to each other.
