ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: gas-cleaning and dust-collecting apparatuses, applicable in non-ferrous metallurgy, petrochemical industry, production of mineral fertilizers and other branches for gas cleaning in electrostatic precipitators. SUBSTANCE: in electrostatic precipitator with a corona-forming electrode of polymeric materials, using carrying and corona-forming parts and a tension load, the latter is made of a strip located vertically and relation between the width and thickness being (2-4):1. The upper part of the strip fastened to the end of the electrode carrying section has a length of not less than the interelectrode distance and is positioned above the lower end of the precipitating electrode of the electrostatic precipitator. The lower part of the strip is installed in a retainer made in the form of a cylinder with a square hole inside it and twinned ribs on the external side. The end parts of the retainers connecting two retainers located nearby are fastened between the ribs. The retainer of the corona-forming electrode is made of polymeric material. EFFECT: enhanced reliability of fixing of the corona-forming electrode of electrostatic precipitator and stabilization of specified interelectrode distances, simplified assembly and alignment of electrode. 2 cl, 2 dwg , 1 tbl
