1402449 Rotary drum vacuum filter WEDAG WESTFALIA DINNENDAHL GPOPPEL AG 2 Aug 1972 [2 Aug 1971] 36177/72 Heading BID [Also in Division F2] A rotary vacuum filter comprises an endless belt 5 entrained round a drum 1, the drum presenting a generally convex axial section as shown to assist belt centering and prevent creasing. The drum may include axial bars 3 of rubber or plastics whose free, radially outer edges are curved, the bars being thicker in the middle than at the ends. The curvature may be smooth or may be simplified (Fig. 3, not shown) to present a drum periphery of double frusto-conical form. The bars in the latter case may be divided at the median plane of the drum. In Fig. 4 (not shown) the drum periphery is formed by a perforate metal shell. |
