APPARATUS FOR APPLYING FLUENT MATERIALS TO SURFACES, IN GENERAL (spraying apparatus, atomising apparatus, nozzles B05B; plant for applying liquids or other fluent materials to objects by electrostatic spraying B05B5/08)

Description

Covers apparatus and devices for applying liquid, semi-liquid, or flowable materials uniformly to surfaces by means other than spraying or atomising. This subclass includes brushes, rollers, squeegees, immersion coating systems, and curtain-coating equipment used for paints, varnishes, adhesives, inks, and similar fluent materials in industrial and commercial applications. Excludes spraying and atomising devices, which are classified under B05B, and surface preparation or finishing processes that do not involve material application.

B05C 3/00 Apparatus in which the work is brought into contact with a bulk quantity of liquid or other fluent material
B05C 5/00 Apparatus in which liquid or other fluent material is projected, poured or allowed to flow on to the surface of the work (B05C7/00 takes precedence; essentially involving spraying or electrostatic projection B05B)
B05C 7/00 Apparatus specially designed for applying liquid or other fluent material to the inside of hollow work
B05C 9/00 Apparatus or plant for applying liquid or other fluent material to surfaces by means not covered by any preceding group, or in which the means of applying the liquid or other fluent material is not important
