Abstract
A device for intercepting and collecting fats and/or moisture dispersed in an ascending gaseous carrier has a set of trough-shaped collecting elements which alternate with and whose marginal portions are overlapped by inverted trough-shaped intercepting elements. The lowermost sections of the collecting elements form part of shallow receptacles for collected fats and/or moisture, and such receptacles extend between end walls which are of one piece with the ends of main portions of the collecting elements. Such collecting elements can be produced by deep drawing suitably configurated blanks of sheet metal. The end walls and the marginal portions of the collecting elements have projections extending through slots in plate-like holders for the collecting elements.
Claims21
A device for separating and intercepting a liquid medium which is distributed in a flowing gaseous carrier, comprising a plurality of spaced apart substantially parallel trough-shaped elongated collecting elements each having a first end, a second end, two elongated marginal portions between the first and second ends and a main portion between the marginal portions, each of said ends including an end wall of one piece with and extending transversely of the main portion to define with the main portion a receptacle for collected liquid medium;
- a plurality of elongated inverted trough-shaped intercepting elements alternating with and spacedly overlying the marginal portions of neighboring collecting elements, said collecting elements and said intercepting elements defining a plurality of paths for the flow of gaseous carrier whereby the intercepting elements intercept and the receptacles of the collecting elements collect the liquid medium which is distributed in the gaseous carrier;
- and a holder adjacent and supporting the first ends of said collecting elements, the end walls at the first ends of said collecting elements including projections extending away from the main portions and into sockets provided therefor in said holder.
