Integrated charge ring
First Claim
1. Atomizer for the electrostatic series coating of workpieces with an outer housing (1), which holds the spray head (4) of the atomizer and which is made of insulating material, with a line (5) for the coating material leading to the spray head along a longitudinal axis of the atomizer and running through the housing, and with an electrode arrangement (10), which is connected to a high-voltage supply device (14), which is suitable for external charging of the sprayed coating material through ionization of the air surrounding the outer housing (1), which concentrically surrounds the longitudinal axis of the atomizer, and which is embedded in a ring part (8) made from insulating material at the insulating end exposed to the outside, which is set back at an axial distance behind the spray head, characterized in that the electrode arrangement (10) is arranged in the ring part (8) made from insulating material directly at the outside of the outer housing (1).

Abstract
For improving external charging in electrostatic atomizers for conductive coating material and for reducing the structural size of the atomizer, particularly for robot applications, the charging electrodes are embedded in a ring part made of insulating material, which is set directly on the outside of the outer housing or forms a part of the outer housing.
