APPARATUS FOR LIQUID TREATMENT OF BEARINGS Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: cleaning of bearings. SUBSTANCE: apparatus has chute for conveying bearings and collector with group of channels for generating vortex flow of washing or preservation solution oriented tangentially of bearing retainer. Collector is positioned above chute. Additional chute is disposed below chute. Main and additional chutes are provided with auxiliary group of channels separated one from the other by distance equal to chute width. This group of channels are adapted for generating vortex flows of washing or preservation solution flowing in countercurrency with respect to vortex flow of solution in adjacent groups of channels. Channels of different groups of channels may have different diameters. EFFECT: increased efficiency, wider operational capabilities and simplified construction. 4 cl, 5 dwg
