Centrifugal spark arrestor assembly

A centrifugal spark arrestor comprising:

• a main body portion having a first end and a second end spaced from one another, said main body having an interior wall defining a flow path for the flow of air through said main body and a longitudinal axis;
• an inlet positioned at said first end and extending generally perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, said inlet being in operative communication with said flow path;
• an outlet positioned at said second end, said outlet being in operative communication with said flow path;
• at least one baffle positioned within said main body portion between said first and second ends, partially extending into said flow path;
• a central tube extending along the longitudinal axis of the body portion;
• whereby air is pulled into said inlet and forced initially in a direction perpendicular to said longitudinal axis and against said interior wall, said air is forced through said main body portion and about said central tube to increase the centrifugal action within said main body to said outlet in a centrifugal flow path, said at least one baffle being engaged by said air flowing through said main body portion with any particles entrained within the air impinging said at least one baffle and said central tube.
