Coating plant
First Claim
1. Coating plant for workpieces, comprising:
- a coat application section including a skid conveyor extending therethrough at a first level,a coat drier section following said application section and comprising a drier booth and a drier conveyor, said drier conveyor extending through said drier booth and said coat drier section;
said drier booth being arranged at a second level, which is higher than said first level;
said skid conveyor passing through the coat application section and moving workpieces set on skid frames through the coat application section at a process feeding speed for the application of the coating, andsaid drier conveyor following the skid conveyor and conveying the skid frames with the coated workpieces set thereon through the coat drier section, said drier conveyor moving the skid frames at the process feeding speed along a skid frame path through said drier booth and the coat drier section,said drier conveyor extending beneath the skid frame path in a take over section for taking over said skid frames at said first level and thereafter lifting said skid frames to said drier booth at said second level via a conveyor section extending parallel to an inclined plane from said first level to said second level to subsequently convey said skid frames through said drier booth.

Abstract
In order to improve a coating plant for workpieces, in particular for vehicle bodies, comprising a coat application section, a coat drier section following the application section and comprising a drier booth arranged at a higher level in relation to the coat application section, a skid conveyor on the inlet side passing through the coat application section, the skid conveyor moving workpieces mounted on skid frames through the coat application section at a process feeding speed for the application of the coating, and a drier conveying device following the skid conveyor and conveying the skid frames with the coated workpieces mounted thereon through the coat drier section, such that this is simpler in its construction than the known coating plants it is suggested that the drier conveying device be a drier conveyor following the skid conveyor and moving the skid frames at the process feeding speed along a skid frame path through the coat drier section, that the drier conveyor extend beneath the skid frame path and that the drier conveyor take over the skid frames at the conveyor level of the skid conveyor and lift them via an inclined plane to the conveyor level of the drier booth and subsequently convey them therethrough.
