CENTRIFUGE FOR THE SUSPENSION SEPARATION Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: chemical industry. SUBSTANCE: centrifuge for the suspension separation includes a jacket with tanks for liquid and hard fractions, a rotor mounted in it in the form of a drum with holes for removal of the liquid fraction and windows for the removal of the hard fraction, a means for transporting and unloading the hard fraction placed inside the drum and a feeding pipe. The mentioned means consists of disks disposed along the drum length at a certain distance one from another. The disks form a packet whose shape is analogous to the rotor one. The packet is brought into rotation by means of frictional coupling with the drum wall through the hard fraction. The packet is mounted in such a way that its axle is located eccentric to the drum axle and is equipped with the mechanism for changing the eccentricity and turning the packet relative to the drum axle. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of the material separation. 4 dwg
