Abstract: A powder coating apparatus for forming a resin coating on the inner periphery of a
container (2) having a barrel (21), a shoulder (22) and a mouth (23) does have a holder (3)
for temporarily holding the container in place, a spray gun (4) for blowing into the
container a powder through an open skirt (21a) of the container. The apparatus further
has a first passage (51) for guiding to the spray gun a first air stream together with the
powder, a second passage (61) for feeding a second air stream for stirring the powder into
the spray gun. The apparatus still further has a third passage (81) for collecting a first
surplus of the powder from the container mouth (23), a fourth passage (71) for collecting a
second surplus of the powder from the open skirt of the container, and control unit
respectively connected to the first to fourth passages. Each control unit does effect a
feedback control such that flow rate through and/or internal pressure in each passage are
maintained at respective target levels, so that the resin powder is applied uniformly to the
tube inner periphery ranging from the shoulder to barrel, with the proximity of the skirt
being surely masked not to be covered with the powder.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une traverse de construction légère entre deux zones de bord latérales d'une structure de véhicule, comprenant au moins un élément de maintien pour le rattachement d'éléments fonctionnels du véhicule. La traverse monobloc (1) selon l'invention est constituée, en sens axial, d'au moins deux segments (2, 3) ayant des épaisseurs de paroi différentes et, éventuellement, des diamètres extérieurs différents, une zone de transition continue (4) se situant entre les deux segments (2, 3). Pour la plupart des traverses, une rigidité élevée n'est nécessaire que du côté du conducteur, notamment lorsque les traverses présentent un support en tunnel. Partant de cet acquis, l'invention vise à réaliser une traverse légère (1). A cet effet, le segment (3) de la traverse (1) du côté du passager présente une épaisseur de paroi inférieure. Selon les connaissances actuelles, une épaisseur de paroi côté passager représentant au plus 50 % de l'épaisseur de paroi côté conducteur est largement suffisante.
