CENTRIFUGE Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: devices for separation of liquid nonuniform systems in field of centrifugal forces; applicable in various industries. SUBSTANCE: centrifuge includes body, devices for supply of suspension, flushing fluid and heat carrier. Rotor consists of disc carrying conical separating and/or filtering partitions ensuring zigzag motion of suspension from center to periphery. Located on separating partitions whose large bases face disc are spreading agents. In addition, installed in rotor is solid conical partition with groove having circular overflow lips on its internal surface and serving for sediment washing. Centrifuge rotor design is relatively simple to provide for shockless transition of sediment particles from one separating surface to another, guaranteed prevention of breaking through poorly separated suspension portions to sediment receiver, efficient washing of sediment by dipping that materially reduces consumption of washing fluid and allows sugar washing with clear liquor in centrifuging of massecuites. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 2 cl, 3 dwg
