Abstract:
A filtering apparatus for filtering cutting oil containing metal chips so that the filtered cutting oil can be recycled includes a reservoir, a filtering drum journalled within the reservoir and having a filtering screen support and a filtering screen extending about the periphery of the drum and secured to the drum by the filtering screen support, a chip discharge device including a belt entrained around guide rollers for carrying separated metal chips out of the reservoir, a discharged chip receiving bin disposed outside the reservoir adjacent to the discharge end of the chip discharge device and a filtered oil receiving bin disposed outside of the reservoir adjacent to a filtered oil discharge area of the reservoir. The drum is rotated by a motor located atop the reservoir and connected to the drum. An air spray device extends within the drum for spraying air at the filtering screen to dislodge any metal chips clinging to the screen.
Abstract:
A filtration apparatus comprised of a rotary drum having a plurality of internal vanes for conveying slag material is presented. The slag is conveyed upwardly by the vanes, after which is falls freely onto a conveyer belt passing longitudinally through the drum. Deflectors guide the slag during its fall onto the belt. The deflectors are divergent and inclined relative to the direction of movement of the conveyer belt. The rotatable drum is axially subdivided into a plurality of sections, the vanes of each section being angularly offset in relation to the vanes of adjacent sections. The filtering apparatus herein effects uniform charging of slag material onto the conveyer belt.
Abstract:
A filtration apparatus comprised of a rotary drum having a plurality of internal vanes for conveying slag material therein therein is presented. The slag is conveyed upwardly by the vanes, after which it falls freely onto a conveyer belt passing longitudinally through the drum. Each vane consists of a retaining blade and a liquid permeable filtering blade spaced from the retaining blade. A deflecting means is positioned beneath the filtering blade. The deflecting means includes a deflecting plate associated with a support member. The support member and the retaining blade provide a supporting frame work for the rotary drum.
Abstract:
This invention comtemplates a new and novel filtering device that comprises a plurality of parallel filter elements with means within the device for backflushing two or more of the filter elements without removing the elements from the device and while the device is being operated onstream and filtering. The backflushed fluid used to clean the elements is isolated from the primary fluid stream and discharged from the device.
Abstract:
A filtration array comprising a main raw fluid supply line and a main filtered fluid collecting line, at least one filtration flow path extending between the main raw fluid supply line and the main filtered fluid collecting line; each of the at least one filtration flow path is configured with a filtering assembly comprising a pair of filter units coaxially extending from a common manifold configured on the filtration flow path and is in flow communication with the main raw fluid supply line and the main filtered fluid collecting line, each of the filter units comprising a plurality of parallely disposed filter members.
Abstract:
A solid-liquid separating apparatus comprising a cylindrical strainer formed by circular ring members with gaps in between, a casing having the strainer therein, and scrapers disposed in the respective gaps between the circular ring members for removing solid matter adhering to the end (flat) surfaces of the circular ring members. Each of the scrapers comprises a flat auxiliary circular ring member and a flat protruding element. The external diameter of the auxiliary circular ring member is smaller than the external diameter of the circular ring members and is larger than the internal diameter of the circular ring members, and the protruding element extends from the outer circumferential surface of the auxiliary circular ring member. The auxiliary circular ring members are disposed coaxially with the circular ring members, and the tip ends of protruding elements reach the outer circumferences of the circular ring members.
Abstract:
A solid-liquid separating apparatus comprising: a strainer which is in a cylindrical shape formed by a plurality of flat ring members with gaps in between; a casing which has an accommodating section for setting the strainer therein so that the accommodating section is divided by the strainer into a strainer inner region and a strainer outer region, and an intake port that introduces a mixture of a solid and liquid is formed in the strainer outer region and an outlet port that discharges to the outside the liquid that is separated from the solid and passes between the circular ring members and advances into the strainer inner region is formed in the strainer inner region; and a scraper that has plate-form protruding portions with tip ends thereof located in the gaps between the circular ring members of the strainer so as to scrape off the solid matter adhering to the flat surface of the circular ring members.
