Patent Images
1. An electrostatic spray gun for spraying solid particulate powder materials comprising:
- an electrically non-conductive housing, said housing comprising a pair of spaced mounting blocks and a pair of parallel tubes extending between said mounting blocks, one of said mounting blocks being spaced forwardly of the other, the forwardmost mounting block having an electrode extending forwardly therefrom,a first one of said pair of parallel tubes being fixedly mounted to said forwardmost mounting block,an electrical resistor mounted within said first one of said pair of tubes, said electrical resistor being electrically connected to said electrode,the second one of said pair of tubes being of adjustably mounted in said forwardmost mounting block,said second one of said pair of tubes being a straight powder transport tube, said powder transport tube having an inlet end and a forward outlet end, nozzle means mounted to the forward outer end of the powder transport tube,locking means for removably securing said powder transport tube and said nozzle means in an adjustable position relative to said forwardmost mounting block and said forwardly extending electrode,said first one of said pair of parallel tubes being fixedly mounted in the rearwardmost of said mounting blocks,said powder transport tube being slideably received in a bore of said second mounting block so as to facilitate removal and replacement of said powder transport tube from said mounting blocks, andmeans for supporting said electrostatic spray gun from said second mounting block.

Abstract
An electrostatic spray gun for spraying solid particulate powder materials while entrained in a gas medium, including an electrically non-conductive housing having an electrode extending forwardly therefrom and a straight electrically non-conductive powder transport tube adjustably and replaceably mounted within the housing so as to enable the discharge end of the tube to be positionably adjusted relative to the electrode or to be replaced with a tube of differing internal diameter so as to vary the transport velocity at which the powder is emitted from the discharge end of the tube.
