Abstract

The protection device (1) is associated with a coating head (100) from a calibrated slot (101) of which a laminar veil (V) of ceramic glaze continuously falls, which uniformly covers ceramic tiles (3), fed by a conveyor line (2) with belts (20), arranged in a row and spaced apart from each other by an empty space (K). The protection device (1) prevents the sections of belts (20) that remain uncovered in said empty spaces (K) from being soiled, by means of at least one battery (4) equipped with a number of nozzles (40) fed with compressed air equal to that of the belts (20). Said nozzles (40) are each equipped with a device (41) for instantaneous opening/closing of the jet, are facing the laminar veil (V) and are arranged above and aligned with the belts 20. By means of sensors (6), positioned upstream of the coating head (100), each empty space (K) between two consecutive ceramic tiles (3) is detected, as well as the front (3A) and rear (3P) transversal side of the same; the signals supplied by the aforementioned sensors (6) go to an electronic control unit (7), which opens, with suitable synchronism, the compressed air jet of all the nozzles (40), at the beginning of the transit of each empty space (K) under the aforementioned laminar veil (V), then, at the end, their instantaneous closure. In this phase, the air jets intercept pre-established portions (PV) of the laminar veil (V), so that they do not settle on the belts (20), but are deviated towards the sides of the latter.
