4.] FIELD OF INVENSION
- ALL TYPE OF METAL CONSTRUCTIONS, METAL PARTS FINISHING, MEI'AL TREATMENT, MEI'AL
PARTS CLEANING FOR AUTOMOTIVE OR ANY OTHER AUTOMOBILE MANUFACTURE COMPANIES
OR CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES, TREATMENT WITH PRODUCT FOR PROTECTION, OR OTHER
TARGET. ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES.
- THE INVENTION FIELD IS IN THE AUTOMATIC PRODUCTION WORLD IS FOR TREATING OF SMALL
AND/OR BIGGER METAL PARTS SURFACES, FROM AUTOMATIC POWDER COATING LINES, PAINT
LINES, PLASTIC COATING LINES, AND OTHER AUTOMATIC TREATMENT APPLICATIONS WHERE
THE CARRIERS OF WHICH ARE CONTAMINATED BY THE TREATMENT OF THE END PRODUCTS

\\
PRINCIPLES. ALI. THE DESIGN HANGING SYSTEMS USED THAT NEED TO BE CLEANED,
HANGINGS ON A CONVEYOR SYSTEM WERE THE PARTS ON IT TO TREAT THEM VV'ITH A
PROTECTION LAYER.
ONCE THE CONTACT POINT OF THE CARRIER BECOMES DIRTY, WE MUST CLEAN THIS POINTS
TO KEEP OUR QUALITY AND PERFORMANCES.
ONE OF THE CLASSIC MEI'HODS IS, TAKE THE DIRTY PARTS OF THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM, PUT
THE DIRTY PARTS IN A BASKET AND GO TO ANOTHER APPLICATION TO CLEAN THE JIGS AND
HANGERS.
AFI'ER CLEANING AND TREATED TO BECOME CLEAN, PART TO PART, CONTACTS, WE HANG
THE HANGERS OR JIGS BACK ON THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM AND WE CAN RE-USE THEM.
A HIGH COST FOR TRANSPORT, HIGH COST FOR LABOR AND HANDLING, HIGH ENERGY COST,
THIRD PARTY CLEANING PARTNERS OR lN-HOUSE CLEANING APPLICATION WILL COST MORE.
IT'S FEELS AS OUR DUTY THAT CVNOVA PVT LTD TAKE THE CALL FROM THE COMPANIES VERY
SERIOUSLY AND START TO THINKING HOW WE CAN HELP THEM AND TRY TO SOLVE THESE
PROBLEMS. EXPENSIVE CLEANING INSTALLATIONS TO CLEAN THE METAL PARTS ARE
NECESSARY TO HAVE A GOOD OUTPUT AND PERFORMANCES.
NO BATCH SYSTEM ANYMORE
IN A WORLD OF HIGH COST AND TO AVOID CHEMICALS TO CLEAN THE PARTS ON AN
ACCEPTABLE WAY AND HIGH HANDLING AND ENERGY COST
No MORE HANDLING ANYMORE WITH DIRTY PARTS
No HIGH CHEMICAL CLEANING COSTS TO HAVE CLEAN PARTS.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
THE UNIC —- AUTOMATIC INTEGRATED CLEANING SYSTEM INVENTION
NO BACH SYSTEM ANYMORE. NO HANDLING. NO TRANSPORT ETC...
DESIGN. DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING
THE INSTALLATION/APPLICATION IS DIVIDED IN FOUR PARTS.
I. DESTRUCTION OF THE CONTAMINATED LAYER ON THE METAL SURFACE
(ON THE DESIGN HANGING SYSTEMS USED THAT NEED TO BE CLEANED)
II. REMOVING RESIDUAL CONTAMINATION ON THE METAL SURFACES
(ON THE DESIGN HANGING SYSTEMS USED THAT NEED TO BE CLEANED)
III. AIR TREATMENT APPLICATION.
IV. RE—USING OF THE TREATED HEAT AND AIR TRANSFER
V. WORKING, SAFEI'Y AND CONTROLLING DESCRIPTION OF THE DIFFERENT PARTS To START THE UNlC-SOL SOLUTION
PART I
I. DESTRUCTION OF THE CONTA MINA TION ON THE HANGERS AND .1155:
No PARTS ARE on THE LINE CONVEYOR ANYMORE OVER A DISTANCE or s METERS.
THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM IS CONTINUE RUNNING WITHOUT ANY STOP!
WE BUILD AN INSULATED BOX AROUND THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM WITH THE BURNERS ON
FIXATED WITH A PROTECTED HIGH TEMPERATURE INSULATION. THE TOP OF THE BOX IS
OPEN AT THE TOP WHERE THE FRESH OR PRE-HEATED IS COMING IN (7).
- EXHAUST FAN: (1)
To START THE INSTALLATION, WE MUST START THE EXHAUST FAN AS A SAFETY AND 31-:
SURE THE WORKING OF THE UNIC—AICS SYSTEM WILL BE UNDER CONTROL.
- NEXT STEP To START IN THE CLEANING CYCLE IS (2) PILOT BURNER, PRE-IGNITION
AND GAS FLOW INTO THE PILOT BURNER, BURNER CONTROLLER TAKES OVER AND WE
GO To THE NEXT STEP.
' GAS VALVES OPEN AND IGNITION THROUGH THE PILOT BURNER (PB) OF ALL THE
BURNERS IN THE BURNING CHAMBER (1 1) UNDER THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
CONTROLLER OF THE THERMOCOUPLES (6). THE DESTRUCTION TEMPERATURES ARE
DEPENDENT ON THE TYPE OF CONTAMINATION AND CAN BE ADJUSTED To THE RIGHT
TEMPERATURE.
- THE PROTECTION TEMPERATURES ARE FIXED To BE SURE WE WORK IN A SAFEI'Y
ENVIRON. CONTROLLED BY THE PLC'HMI CONTROLLER. ALL BURNERS ARE LOOKING
DOWN To THE BOTTOM WHERE THE AIRSTREAM IS GOING INTO THE AHERBURNER
CHAMBER (12).
THE FLOW SPEED IS HIGH ENOUGH To CREATE A NEGATIVE PRESSURE IN THE
DESTRUCTION ZONE AND TAKE ALL THE HOT GASES, PAINT RESIDUES AND OTHER
PARTICLES WITH THE AIR STREAM INTO THE AHER BURNER.
- THE BURNING GASES AND THE DESTRUCTED PAINT 0R POWDER COATING RESIDUES ARE
SUCKING AWAY THROUGH THE AFTER'BURNER CHAMBERS WITH A RESISTED TIME FOR A
CERTAIN PERIOD TIME BEFORE THE GASES GO THE AIR TREATMENT UNIT.
- FRESH OR PRE'HEATED AIR IS COMING IN THE BURNER ROOM FROM THE TOP OF THE PART II
II. REMOVING RES/DUAL CONTAMINA TION ON THE METAL SURFACES
(ON THE DESIGN HANGING SYSTEMS USED THATNEED TO BE CLEANED)
WHILE THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM IS CONTINUOUSLY RUNNING, THE PARTS COME INTO THE
SECOND PART OF THE CLEANING STATION.
THE PARTS WILL BE CLAMP (17) ON THE BOTTOM SIDE WITH A CLAMPING SYSTEM TO
KEEP THE HANGER FIX DURING THE BRUSH ACTIONS TO MAKE THE CONTACT POINTS
VERY CLEAN AND FREE OF ALL CONTAMINATIONS. THE CLAMP UNIT CAN GO UP AND
DOWN TO REACH THE PERFECT HIGH TO CLAMP THE PARTS ON THE BOTTOM SIDE. THE
CLAMP IS A HORIZONTAL TWO-BELT DRIVING SYSTEM THE RUNNING WITH THE SAME
SPEED AS THE SPEED OF THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM. THE RUNNING BELTS GO FROM A
OPEN POSlTlON TO A CLOSER POSITION TO CLAMP THE HANGER AND AT THE END THE
BELT GO OUT FROM EACH OTHER AND THE HANGER COME OUT OF THE CLAMP AND
FOLLOW HIS WAY TO CONTINUE.
TO HOLD THE HANGER IN THIS POSITION THE HANGER IS PERFECT VERTICAL, AND THE
BRUSHES CAN DO THEIR JOB TO CLEAN ALL PLACES. WE HOLD THE HANGER FROM THE
BEGINNING OF THE START POSITION OF THE BRUSH CLEANING AND LEI' THEM GO AT THE
END POSITION OF THE BRUSH CLEANING PART. THE BELT OF THE CLAMP IS AN
CONTINUE RUNNING SYSTEM IN THE SAME DIRECTION OF THE CONVEYOR IS GOING.
EVEN IS THERE IS NOT A HANGER THE SYSTEM WILL JUST CONTINUE GOING ON AND
ONCE THERE IS COMING A HANGER, THE SYSTEM WILL CLAMP THE COMING HANGER
AUTOMATIC.
ALL TYPE OF BRUSHES (14) WE CAN USE, OR WE MAKE THE BRUSHES CUSTOMER MADE
AND DEVELOPED THE DESIGN TO THE HANGER PARTS. WE PREFER TO WORK WITH
STAINLESS STEEL WIRING OR WITH COPPER WIRING HAIRBRUSHES. BUT Also, WITH
STRONG PLASTIC AND HEAT .RESISTANT PLASTIC HAIR, STRONG OR SOFT DEFEND ON
THE APPLICATION.
BRUSHES CAN MOVE UP AND DOWN, LEE", AND RIGHT FORWARDS AND BEHIND TO BE
SURE WE REACH ALL THE NECESSARY POINTS OF CONTACTS AND TO BE CLEAN.
BRUSHES ARE DRIVEN BY ELECTRICAL MOTORS AND FREQUENT CONTROLS TO BE SURE
WE REACH THE PERFECT CLEANING BY OUR SEWING POSSIBILITIES
PART III
III. AIR TREA TMENT CLEANING ( I 5)
THE DIRTY AIR COMING FROM THE “REMOVING RESIDUALS” GO INTO A SPECIAL DE-DUSTING
APPLICATION. (WE USE A CERAMIC FILTRATION SYSTEM, BUT ALSO YOU CAN USE ANOTHER DEDUSTING SYSTEM SUCH AS CYCLONES)
BEFORE THE GASES REACH THE INLEI' OF THE FILTER, WE SUCK IN AND MIX WITH COLD, FRESH
AIR TO REDUCE THE AIR TEMPERATURE.
ONCE THE GASES COMING INSIDE THE FILTER, THE DUST SUCK DOWN IN THE DUCT COLLECTOR
AND THE EXHAUST FAN, SUCH THE DIRTY AIR THROUGH THE CERAMIC CANDLES TO CLEAN.
THE DIRTY AIR CAN BE TREATED IN THE FILTER BY A DIFFERENT TEMPERATURES.
OUR WORKING TEMPERATURE WILL BE ON A ACCEPTABLE TEMPERATURE.
A SPECIAL SYSTEM TO KEEP THE CANDLES CLEAR AND REMOVE THE DUST FROM THE FILTERS
IS INCLUDED.
ALL THE DUST IS COLLECTED IN THE DUST COLLECTED BIN (16) AND CAN BE REMOVED AND
CLEAN AS THE DUST TRASH.
PART IV
IV. ENERGYRE-USING SYSTEM
WE DON’T SEND THE HOT AIR COMING FROM THE EXHAUST FAN (1) DIRECTLY TO THE STACK,
BUT WE SEND THE HOT AIR BACK To THE “DESTRUCTION ZONE” (ZONE I) AND HEAT MAKE A
PRE-HEATING FROM THE COLD MEI'AL PARTS AND THE BURNER AIR THAT IS COMING IN THE
“DESTRUCTION ZONE)
A PART GOES OUT TO THE STACK AND FRESH AIR COME IN VIA THE COOLING AIR IN THE
“REMOVE REDUSIAL ZONE".
THE CIRCLE IS ROUND, AND WE START AGAIN FROM THE BEGINNING, IN THE MAEN TIME THE
PRODUCTION IS GOING ON, NOT ONLY ONE PART IS TOUCHED OR HANDLED
V. WORKING PRINCIPAL. SAFE! Z AND CONTROLLING
IN THE UNIC—AUTOMATIC INTEGRATED CLEANING SYSTEM WE USE A SEQUENTIAL
START up PROCEDURE
THE UNIC-AICS IS A UNIVERSAL SYSTEM THAT CAN BE USED AND INTEGRATED IN ANY KIND OF
AUTOMATIC CONVEYOR SYSTEM WITH THE RIGHT ADJUSTMENTS AND TO THE NEEDS OF EACH
CUSTOMER.
THERE TWO POSITIONS:
IS THE STAND-BY -) OPERATION POSITION!
THE UNIC—Alcs STAY OPEN, AND ALL THE WAY IS FREE THAT THE PARTS CAN BE GO
EASILY THROUGH THE POWDER COATING LINE.
CLEANING POSITION
THE UNIC—AICS Is CLOSE AND IS PROTECTED WITH LIGHT BARRIERS, EMERGENCY
STOPS OR EMERGENCY CORD AROUND THE UNIC—AICS UNIT FOR SAFETY REASONS
START IN THE FOLLOW ORDERING EXHAUST FAN (1 ) (STILL ALWAYS RUNNING ALSO BY EMERGENCY STOP OR OTHER
PERIODICAL PAUSES pF THE PROCESS
START PILOT BURNER (2) No PILOT BURNER, NO OTHER IGNITION OF THE BURNERS.
THE PILOT BURNER (PB) HAS A LEAKAGE TEST PROGRAM AND AN IGNITION TRANSFO,
THE PB CONTROLLER TAKE CARE OF THE FLAME STABILITY WE NEED A FLAME WITHIN 5
seconos BEFORE WE GO TO THE NEXT STEP .
ONCE SOMETHING IS HAPPENING WITH THE PB ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS GO IN STANDBY MODE
IGNITATION OF THE BURNERS IN THE DESTRUCTION ZONE AND HEATING UP THE
INCOMING AIR AND THE DIRTY MEI'AL PARTS TO THE SEI'I'ING TEMPERATURE
THE SURFACE TREATMENT APPLICATION IS IN THE RIGHT POSITION THE CLAMP THE
PARTS ON THE BO'ITOM SIDE AND TO FIX THE CARRIER SOT THAT THE BRUSHES CAN no
THERE CLEANING JOB
THIS IS ALL IN
'ONE LINE AND THE AIRSTREAM TAKE THE DUST AND DIRTY AIR INTO THE FILTER SYSTEM
. CLAIMS
I/WE CLAIM THAT MY UNlC-AICS (AUTOMATIC INTEGRATED CLEANING SYSTEM) Is AN
AUTOMATIC IN-LINE INTEGRATED INDUSTRIAL CLEANING SOLUTIONS FOR
CLEANING HANGER, JIGS AND/OR OTHER PARTS HANGING ON A PRODUCTION LINE/OR
OTHER AUTOMATIC CONVEYOR SYSTEM, TO CLEAN THE DIRTY PARTS ON THIS CONVEYOR
SYSTEM.
I/WE CLAIM THAT MY UNIC—AICS SYSTEM CAN BE WORKING IN A PRODUCTION PROCESS,
TO DESTROYING OF THE CONTAMINATION ON THE PARTS WITH BURNERS OR ANY OTHER
HOT OR COLD REMOVAL SYSTEM AND AFTER-GASES HEAT-UP (BURNED) DIRECTLY IN THE
“DESTRUCTION ZONE ON THE HIGH TEMPERATURE.
I/WE CLAIM THAT IN OUR UNIC-AICS AFTER DESTRUCTION WE CAN REMOVE THE
RESIDUES, TO TREAT THE METAL SURFACE OF THE PARTS, WITH OUR AUTOMATIC
TREATMENT (BRUSHES) OR ANY OTHER APPLICATION SYSTEM. THE CLEANING
APPLICATIONS CAN BE MOVED AND ADJUSTED IN ALL DIRECTIONS, up, DOWN, FORWARDS,
BACKWARDS, LEFT, RIGHT TO BE SURE WE REACH ALL THE CONTACT POINTS, AND THEY
ARE CLEAN. OUR TREATMENT APPLICATION IS ALSO THE COOLING DOWN PLACE AND THE
FIRST DUST AND CONTAMINATION COLLECTOR.
I/WE CLAIM THAT THE DIRTY AND FRESH AIR GOING INTO, OR sucxs THE AIR INSIDE OR
BLOW IT INTO, THE AIR TREATMENT APPLICATION TO MAKE SURE CLEAN AIR IS COMING
OUT or THE AUTOMATIC INDUSTRIAL IN LINE CLEANING SOLUTION. WITH A HIGH
TEMPERATURE FILTRATION UNIT, OR ANY OTHER FILTER SYSTEM OR HIGH OR LOW
TEMPERATURE APPLICATION WE CAN USE. WE GUARANTEE THE PERFECT OUTCOMING AIR.
ALL DUST, RESIDUES AND OTHER DIRTY ITEMS WILL BE REMOVED AND COLLECT INTO A
COLLECTING UNIT.
I/w: CLAIM THAT WE MAKE USE OF THE ENERGY SAVINGS, AND WE RE-USE THE CLEANED
HOT AIR FOR THE NEXT PRE-HEATED AIR TRANSFER. WE RE-USE THE CLEANED HOT AIR
IN THE DESTRUCTION ZONE TO HELP THE DIRTY PARTS To HEAT UP FASTER AND AND
USE LESS ENERGY TO HEAT THE PARTS UP To THE RIGHT TEMPERATURE, IN THIS WAY WE
REDUCE THE COST OF ENERGY TO CLEAN THE PARTS.
I/WE CLAIM THAT OUR UNIC-AICS SYSTEM Is A VERY LESS ENERGY COST TO CLEAN THEIR
DIRTY‘PARTS SEVERAL TIMES LESS THAN OF THE EXISTING METHOD I/WE CLAIM THAT WE CAN m ALL OUR DIFFERENT ZONES, ALL OUR APPLICATIONS CAN BE
ADJUSTED AND CUSTOMIZED TO CLEAN ALL TYPES OF THE PARTS HANGING ON A
CONVEYING PRODUCTION SYSTEM TO BE SURE WE REACH ALL THE CONTACT POINTS.
8. I/WE CLAIM THAT OUR UNIC—AICS SOLUTION CAN BE INTEGRATED IN EVERY EXISTING
AUTOMATIC CONVEYOR LINE SYSTEM. THE CONVEYOR SYSTEM CAN CONTINUE STILL
RUNNING AND MAKE PRODUCTION DURING THE ONLINE CLEANING ACTIVITIES.
9. l/WE CLAIM THAT WE HAVE A HIGHER PRODUCTION OUTPUT, HIGHER QUALITY,
HIGHER PERFORMANCES, LOWER SCRAP AND REJECTED PARTS, LESS COATING
USING, LESS OPERATIONAL COST, No HANDLING, NO TRANSPORT, N0 CHEMICALS, NO
EXTRA PARTS NECESSARY, N0 MISSING PARTS, ALWAYS ON TIME, VERY HYGIENIC, TIME
