Abstract
A cyclone separator includes a housing generally symmetric about its central longitudinal axis and an inlet for introduction of a fluid containing dispersed substances. An outlet for the cleaned fluid includes a tube through the bottom wall of the housing having an axis coaxial with the longitudinal axis. An outlet for the dispersed substances has the shape of an annular channel in the bottom wall disposed adjacent the tube and adjacent a rotation axis of the fluid whereat high-density substances settle.

A cyclone separator comprising
- a housing generally symmetric about its central longitudinal axis,
- an inlet disposed adjacent a front surface of the housing for introduction of a fluid containing dispersed substances generally tangential to the longitudinal axis,
- a rotor disposed in the housing rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the housing,
- an opposite side of the housing from the front surface having a dish-shaped bottom wall at least a portion of which is inclined toward the longitudinal axis of the housing,
- an outlet for the cleaned fluid comprising a tube through the bottom wall having an axis coaxial with the longitudinal axis, said tube extending from the bottom wall by a defined length in the direction of the front surface,
- an outlet for the dispersed substances having the shape of an annular channel in the bottom wall disposed adjacent the tube and adjacent a rotation axis of the fluid whereat high-density substances settle, and
- a filter device operating according to the retention principle disposed in front of the outlet for the cleaned fluid.
