A method for removing overspray from air flow exiting a painting booth may include passing the air flow through an incoherent mass of cleaning elements, which are kept in a stirred condition, so as to release the overspray onto the cleaning elements of the incoherent mass.

A painting booth may include: a painting chamber and/or an overspray removal unit. Paint may be sprayed in the painting chamber. The painting chamber may be crossed by an air flow for evacuation of overspray from the painting chamber. When exiting the chamber, the air flow may pass through the overspray removal unit in order to remove the overspray from the air flow. The overspray removal unit may include an incoherent mass of cleaning elements kept in a stirred condition, through which the air flow containing the overspray passes so as to release the overspray onto the cleaning elements.

An exhaust configuration for a wet scrubber. The exhaust configuration includes a diffuser that is attached to the wet scrubber and which defining an outlet for discharging scrubbed air and paint laden water from the wet scrubber. Attached on lateral sides of the diffuser are wings. The wings extend away from the outlet.

The disclosure relates to an operating method for a coating system, in particular for a painting system, for coating components (2), in particular motor vehicle body components (2), having the following steps: conveying, by means of a conveying device (3), the components (2) to be coated in a conveying direction through a coating booth (1), coating the components (2) in the coating booth (1) with a coating product by means of an application device (17-19) which applies a spray jet of the coating product, a portion of the applied coating product being deposited on the components (2) to be coated while another portion of the applied coating product floats into the interior of the coating booth (1) as an excess coating product mist (21), and reducing the excess coating product mist (21) from the interior of the booth by means in addition to or other than the downwardly directed air flow generated by a filter ceiling. In addition, the disclosure includes a correspondingly designed coating system.

A cleaning water feeding tool having a pipe structure to feed cleaning water to a water sprinkling cleaning device which has both end portions rotatably supported by a rotary base laid between a pair of rotary support parts disposed opposite to each other on a basket-shaped base, and includes the rotary head rotates with respect to the rotary base, and the rotary base rotates with respect to the basket-shaped base, including a horizontal portion that has a tip end portion connected to the cleaning water supply port and extends approximately horizontally in a state where a rotary shaft of the rotary base is disposed approximately horizontally, a straight portion that extends upward from the horizontal portion; and a hard material that configures or covers at least a portion receiving the cleaning water jetted from the water jet part of the straight portion.

A paint booth assembly includes a paint booth having a pair of side walls and a flood sheet extending between the pair of side walls to separate the paint booth between a spray portion disposed above the flood sheet and a paint recovery portion disposed below the flood sheet. The flood sheet defines at least one flood sheet opening, and a scrubber unit extends down from the flood sheet opening to establish a shared path of fluid communication of a flow of water from the flood sheet and a downdraft of process air from the spray portion to the paint recovery portion. A scrubber pod is disposed within the scrubber unit and defines a plurality of perforations to induce an initial mixing of the paint particles entrained in the downdraft of process air into the flow of water.
