Patent ID: 7152817

Claim:
An electrostatic spraying device being configured and disposed to electrostatically charge and dispense a product from a supply to a point of dispersal, wherein said device comprises: a reservoir configured to contain the supply of product; a nozzle to disperse the product, said nozzle being disposed at the point of dispersal; said nozzle having an exit orifice; a channel disposed between said reservoir and said nozzle, wherein said channel, permits the electrostatic charging of the product upon said product moving within said channel; a power source to supply an electrical charge; a high voltage power supply, said high voltage power supply being electrically connected to said power source; a high voltage electrode, said high voltage electrode being electrically connected to said high voltage power supply, a portion of said high voltage electrode being disposed between said reservoir and said nozzle, said high voltage electrode electrostatically charges the product within said channel at a charging location; and a high voltage shield substantially wounding said reservoir, said high voltage shield being conductive.
