ANOLYTE HOSE GUIDE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17956712 titled 'ANOLYTE HOSE GUIDE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for an anolyte hose guide system to optimize anolyte flow in an electrodeposition coating system.

  • The flexible member guide includes a guide channel to direct the flexible member into the membrane housing of an anode cell.
  • The guide receives the flexible member in one direction and directs it into the anode cell in a perpendicular direction.
  • A mounting structure with a fork-like extension provides a mounting space for the rim of the anode cell.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in industrial settings where electrodeposition coating processes are used, such as automotive manufacturing or metal finishing industries.

Problems Solved

The system solves the problem of inefficient anolyte flow in electrodeposition coating systems, ensuring proper coating application and reducing waste.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved coating quality, increased efficiency in the coating process, and reduced maintenance requirements for the system.

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology can be commercialized for use in various industries that rely on electrodeposition coating processes, offering a more efficient and reliable solution for anolyte flow optimization.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be a similar system used in a different type of coating process, such as a spray coating system, where a guide is used to direct the flow of coating material.

Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods herein provide for an anolyte hose guide to optimize anolyte flow of an electrodeposition coating system. According to some embodiments, a flexible member guide is disclosed that has a guide channel adapted to receive a flexible member and shaped so as to direct an end of the flexible member into a membrane housing of an anode cell for use during an electrodeposition coating process. Examples disclosed herein receive the flexible member via a first direction and direct the end of the flexible member into the anode cell via a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction. The flexible member guide also include a mounting structure having a fork-like extending in the second direction providing for a mounting space configured to receive a rim of the anode cell.
