ROTATING FILTER SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a rotating filter system, comprising a filter housing (110, 210, 310) and a filter rotor (112, 212, 312) which can rotate therein, having filter cells (136', 136'') with inserted filter means (138) provided in the rotor casing unit (128) thereof in order to filter out the proportion of solids as a filter cake (FK), for instance, from a suspension supplied thereto and in order to evacuate the filtrate via discharge lines (142, 242) . The filter rotor (112, 212, 312) can be driven by a drive motor (154b, 254b) via a gear unit (154, 254, 354) with at least one output member (154d, 254d) which is connected to the filter rotor (112, 212, 312). In order to increase filter output, the output member (154d, 254d) is supported in a stationary manner in a bearing element (111, 211, 311) for said output member, which is separate from a rotor bearing element (225,325) or/and the output member (154d, 254d) is driven by a group of wheels which are distributed around the periphery of the output member (154d, 254d) in such a way that the radial components of the forces of the driving wheels which are transmitted to the output member (154d, 254d) are canceled out.
