Abstract:
A spray-coating system, comprising:a spraying implement having first fluid-transmitting ducts; a support to which said spraying implement may be detachably affixed, said support having second fluid-transmitting ducts running therein; clamping means for detachably affixing said spraying implement to said support; fluid-transmitting duct ends of said second fluid-transmitting ducts running in the support being configured opposite fluid-transmitting duct ends of said first fluid-transmitting ducts in the spraying implement in order to transmit fluid between said first and second fluid-transmitting ducts when the spraying implement is affixed to the support; and seals at the fluid-transmitting duct ends to mutually seal the support and the spraying implement, the spraying implement being clampable by the clamping means against the support and, thereby, said seals being compressible between the spraying implement and the support; wherein the clamping means comprise a tightening element which is affixed to and rotatable about one of the spraying implement and the support and which comprises a first clamping surface; a second clamping surface is provided by the other of the spraying implement and the support; the axis of rotation of the tightening element runs in the direction of clamping in which the spraying implement and the support can be clamped; and by rotating the tightening element relative to said spraying implement and said support, the first clamping surface clamping the second clamping surface is rotated jointly with the tightening element in order to clamp the spraying implement against the support, thereby compressing the seals between the spraying implement and the support.
