Apparatus for separating materials of different flowability that are mixed together

An apparatus for separating materials of different flowability that are mixed together, comprising:

• a frame structure;
• a hollow drum mounted on the frame structure and driven in rotation in a rotational direction, the hollow drum having a perforated peripheral surface and at least one at least partially open end face;
• a continuous press belt pressed from outside onto the peripheral surface of the hollow drum when wrapped around part of a circumference of the hollow drum, the continuous belt being driven in circulation in a conveying direction;
• a product intake wedge formed by the press belt and hollow drum, for conducting a product stream, consisting of a product to be pressed, into the apparatus between the hollow drum and the press belt in an inlet area of the product stream;
• and
• a device for discharging separated product pressed from the outside through the perforated peripheral surface into a hollow chamber of the hollow drum from the at least partially open end face of the hollow drum;
• wherein the device for discharging the separated product comprises a scraping element disposed in an upper region of the hollow drum, the scraping element having at least one scraping element section, the at least one scraping element section includes a first scraping element section which is adjacent to an inside of the peripheral surface and has a tilt angle of more than 90° to a tangential plane of the peripheral surface against the direction of rotation.
