<p>A cage comprising one or more wire grids for supporting corrugated plates in a device for treating suspensions. More particularly the device for promoting the separation of and for separating separable components suspended in a carrier liquid includes an assembly of substantially parallel similarly profiled plates within a housing surrounding this assembly. The assembly is provided with means for leading the liquid flow to be treated through the interspaces between the plates, and for subsequently discharging the flow therefrom. Means are provided for enclosing each plate in a cage, the cage including at least one substantially plane grid consisting of a first set of parallel rods of a rigid material. The rods are interconnected by means of a second set of transversely directed rods to form a rigid unit. The housing includes a number of such grids positioned at definite mutual distances in the housing. .</p> |
