DEPOSITING COATINGS ON AND WITHIN HOUSINGS, APPARATUS, OR TOOLS UTILIZING PRESSURIZED CELLS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035158 titled 'DEPOSITING COATINGS ON AND WITHIN HOUSINGS, APPARATUS, OR TOOLS UTILIZING PRESSURIZED CELLS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a coating system that is used to coat the interior surface of a housing. The system includes a first closure and a second closure that seal the housing, as well as first and second flow lines that are connected to the closures. A pressurized cell containing a reactant gas is fluidically coupled to one of the flow lines. A controller is used to inject a pulse of the pressurized gas into a flow of inert gas in the pressurized cell line, which coats the interior surface with a coating layer.

  • The system is designed to coat the interior surface of a housing using a surface coating process.
  • The housing has a first closure and a second closure that seal it.
  • The first and second closures are connected to first and second flow lines, respectively.
  • A pressurized cell containing a reactant gas is connected to one of the flow lines.
  • The pressurized cell is at a higher pressure than the housing.
  • A controller is used to inject a pulse of the pressurized gas into a flow of inert gas in the pressurized cell line.
  • The pulse of pressurized gas is introduced into the interior volume of the housing, coating the interior surface with a coating layer.

Potential Applications:

  • This coating system can be used in various industries where coating the interior surface of a housing is required, such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing.
  • It can be used to coat the interior surfaces of engine components, fuel tanks, or any other parts that require protection or improved performance.

Problems Solved:

  • The system solves the problem of efficiently and effectively coating the interior surface of a housing.
  • It eliminates the need for manual or time-consuming coating processes, reducing labor and production time.
  • The use of a pressurized cell and controlled injection of the pressurized gas ensures a consistent and uniform coating layer.

Benefits:

  • The system provides a cost-effective and efficient solution for coating the interior surface of a housing.
  • It ensures a high-quality and uniform coating layer, improving the performance and durability of the coated parts.
  • The automated process reduces the risk of human error and increases production efficiency.


Original Abstract Submitted

a coating system for coating, with a surface coating process, an interior surface of a housing defining an interior volume, having: a first closure and a second closure to sealingly engage with the housing; one or more first flow lines and second flow lines fluidically coupled to the first and second closure, respectively; a pressurized cell comprising a pressurized gas comprising at least one reactant and at a pressure of greater than a pressure within the housing, wherein the pressurized cell is fluidically coupled to a pressurized cell line comprising one of the first flow lines or second flow lines; and a controller in electronic communication with the pressurized cell and configured to control injection of a pulse of the pressurized gas into a flow of inert gas in the pressurized cell line, whereby the pulse is introduced into the interior volume, coating the interior surface with a coating layer.
