CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATOR FOR LIQUID Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: equipment applicable in centrifugal separation of liquids containing simultaneously light and heavy dispersed particles in food, medial and chemical industries. SUBSTANCE: centrifugal separator for liquid includes drum installed on vertical shaft and has base with unloading slots for sediments, cover connected with base. Cover has channels for withdrawal of liquids after separation. Drum accommodates insert holder on which packages of separating and clarifying inserts are installed which have vertical channel for passage of concentrate of light dispersed phase and liquid purified from heavy dispersed phase. Located between packages is separating plate with flanging. Installed in base in shutoff piston having cone-shaped section and serving for opening of unloading slots. Flanging of separating plate is conical in shape with taper angle equaling taper angle of said section of shutoff piston. Secured to outer surface of flanging are pins tightly fitted to shutoff piston in its upper position. EFFECT: stable constant quality of separation due to guaranteed gap between flanging of separating plate, and internal surface of shutoff piston. 1 dwg
