Abstract
A screening device for pulp production includes a cylindrical container for continuous flow-through of a fiber suspension and further includes an inlet to the container and an outlet for the fiber suspension, a moveable support member mounted in the container and which supports hollow screening members for vertical movement; a tubular enclosure open at opposite ends is mounted on the supporting member which enclosure has a moveable piston mounted therein, a hydraulic cylinder being connected to the piston to move the piston in a portion of the enclosure with the hydraulic drive mounted outside of said container with transmission members connected to said supporting member which will therefore absorb the reaction forces generated in moving the piston.
Claims4
A screening device includes a standing cylindrical container having an inlet and outlet for continuous flow-through of a fibre suspension, said device including a moveable supporting member disposed in said container and which supports hollow screening members for vertical movement with said supporting member, an enclosure connected to said supporting member having opposite open ends and a moveable piston mounted in said enclosure, means for moving said piston comprising a hydraulic drive unit mounted outside of said container and transmission means connected between said hydraulic unit and said supporting member for counteracting the reaction force of the hydraulic unit onto said supporting member.
