Abstract
A device for separating liquid and solid material from a mixture consists of an endless filter belt, beneath which is arranged a suction box connected to a vacuum device. The suction box supports the filter belt. The filter belt moves continuously while the suction box performs a reciprocating movement in the direction of the filter belt. In order to make possible the reciprocating movement of the suction box the connection of the suction box to the stationary vacuum device is embodied as a telescopic connection consisting of a stationary part connected to the vacuum device and a part connected to the suction box and slidably movable in the stationary part.
Claims16
A device for separating liquid and solid material from a mixture comprising:
- (a) an endless filter belt,
- (b) means for supplying the mixture for separation on an upper side of said filter belt,
- (c) at least one suction box located on an underside of said filter belt,
- wherein said at least one suction box supports said filter belt and is reciprocally movable in a lengthwise direction of said filter belt and is connected to a vacuum device, and
- wherein said at least one suction box is connected to said vacuum device over a telescopic connection system wherein said at least one suction box is movable in a first lengthwise direction and in a second lengthwise direction over said filter belt and in relation to a stationary part of said telescopic connection system, and with a vacuum source connected to said at least one suction box through said stationary part.
A device for separating liquid and solid material from a mixture comprising:
- (a) an endless filter belt,
- (b) means for supplying the mixture for separation on an upper side of said filter belt,
- (c) at lest one suction box located on an underside of said filter belt,
- (b) means for supplying the mixture for separation on an upper side of said filter belt,
- (c) at least one suction box located on an underside of said filter belt,
- wherein said at least one suction box supports said filter belt and is reciprocally movable in a lengthwise direction of said filter belt and is connected to a vacuum device, and
- wherein said at least one suction box is connected to said vacuum device over a telescopic connection system formed by a stationary cylindrical part connected to said vacuum device and a part connected to said at least one suction box and slidably movable in said stationary part.
