Apparatus for the treatment of solid, granular and/or lumpy materials

摘要

A rotary sieve comprises, in an elongated housing, a body which is rotatable about a substantially horizontal axis and has, at one end, a frustopyramidal drum widening in the direction of the other end and a zigzag tube communicating eccentrically with the drum. The planar walls of the drum and the tube are perforated sieves and the material is introduced by a worm centrally into the drum and is progressively advanced through the body to be discharged generally centrally from the tube through a discharge drum of the body which is peripherally open so that the material can be collected by a pipe underlying the discharge drum.
