Abstract

A cleaning and/or filling station (10) of a subassembly for spraying a coating product mounted on a moving arm of a robot having a receiving zone (Z120) for receiving at least one sprayer belonging to the spraying subassembly and a connection device between at least one feed circuit and the sprayer in place in the receiving zone. The connection device has at least one part (131) movable between a retracted position, at a distance from the sprayer, and an active position, where the connection device enables the sprayer to be fed with cleaning product and/or coating product. The station has a flexible membrane (150) firmly attached, on the one hand, to the moveable part (131) and, on the other hand, to a fixed envelope (112) for protecting a portion of the connection device, while this membrane is deformable and suitable for following the displacements of the moveable part (131) between the retracted and active positions thereof.
