【発明の詳細な説明】 （産業上の利用分野） 本発明は、浸漬塗布装置に関し、詳しくは、円筒状の
被塗布物の表面に形成される塗膜上部の膜厚ダレの発生
を減少することが可能な浸漬塗布装置に関する。Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a dip coating apparatus, and more particularly, to reduce the occurrence of film thickness sagging on a coating film formed on the surface of a cylindrical object to be coated. The present invention relates to a dip coating apparatus capable of performing the above-mentioned operations.

などのために、浸漬塗布法が優れている。(Prior Art) Forming a photosensitive layer or other layers by coating on the surface of a cylindrical object to be coated has been widely performed conventionally. Among the coating methods, the dip coating method is excellent because of the good surface smoothness and the like.
浸漬塗布法は、膜厚が薄い場合には、均一に塗布する
ことが可能であるが、膜厚が厚い場合には、被塗布物の
上部の塗膜にダレが生じて、膜厚が不均一になるという
欠点がある。The dip coating method enables uniform coating when the film thickness is small. However, when the film thickness is large, sagging occurs on the coating film on the object to be coated, and the film thickness is unsatisfactory. There is a disadvantage that it becomes uniform.

くなり、塗膜の乾燥が遅れるという問題がある。This sagging phenomenon of the coating film occurs because the coating film slips downward before drying, and in order to prevent this, drying may be performed promptly. On the other hand, one of the factors that delay the drying is a problem that evaporation of the solvent from the paint causes the vapor to stay around the object to be coated, increasing the vapor pressure and delaying the drying of the coating film.

Japanese Patent No. 73074 discloses an apparatus for drying a coating film by applying an air flow to the coating film with an air rectifying ring, and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Sho 60-227261 discloses a method of applying a cylindrical object to a coating surface. A device is described in which an airflow is uniformly sent by a blower around a cylindrical object to be coated while being pulled out from the substrate, and the coating film is dried.

ければならないという不都合があった。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the conventional dip coating apparatus as described in the above-mentioned patent publication, since the air flow is directly applied to the coating surface, the generation of the dripping is improved, but the coating unevenness occurs. There was an easy drawback. When applying an airflow, the uniformity of the airflow is extremely important, and if the airflow is not uniform in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical object to be applied, a part that strongly hits and a part that hits weakly occur,
Further, unevenness occurs in drying of the coating film due to, for example, generation of a spiral. As a result, as the object to be coated is pulled up, a thick portion (or a thin portion) is generated in a streak shape in the axial direction, resulting in uneven coating. However, such a drawback occurs in the conventional dip coating apparatus. there were. Therefore, there is another inconvenience that the device for applying the airflow must be processed with extremely high precision and properly installed.
