ABSTRACT:
An improved surface blasting apparatus for cleaning a surface to be treated by throwing abrasive against the surface at high velocity, then recovering and cleaning the abrasive for reuse. The abrasive rebounding from the treated surface is directed against a magnetic receiving member around which a quantity of the ferrous abrasive forms a protective envelope, with additional high speed abrasive striking said envelope and consequently losing kinetic energy. Means is provided for removing debris from the abrasive by entraining the debris in a flow of air through the apparatus. The debris is separated from the air stream by cyclonic rotation in a dust collector. An alternate embodiment includes a deflector plate to prevent the undesirable escape of abrasive forward of the apparatus. Another embodiment provides for a weighted roller with sharp spikes protruding radially outwardly therefrom to puncture surface coatings which are difficult to remove by normal blasting procedures. A further embodiment utilizes a belt conveyor to lift the abrasive and carry it back to an abrasive storage compartment for reuse rather than using a rebound directing device.
