SEPARATING APPARATUS

摘要

An apparatus for separating of flowable and non-flowable constituents mixed with each other, particularly for the purpose of preparation of foodstuffs, operates with an elastic presser belt which is held pressed against the circumferential surface of a separating drum and which is guided between laterally bounding walls. For reducing the unavoidable leakage flow in the region of the radial sealing gap located between the perforated drum and the presser belt, the sealing gap is provided with a radial recess, which extends over the region of the separating drum encompassed by the presser belt and has an opening in the region of the entry wedge which connect said recess with this region.
