CLARIFIER.
Application filed April 6, 1925. Serial No. 20,922.
My invention relates to clarifiers and the As clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawprincipal objects of the invention are to ings, the conduits fit one within the provide a vessel with a plurality of shelves other thus forming a continuous passagesuperimposed one upon the other in spaced way. The lowermost shelf 7 is supported relation by means of connecting conduits above the bottom of the vessel 5 by legs 11 that form a continuous passageway from the resting thereon and in such position that the bottom to the top of the vessel whereby the lower end of its conduit 10 is at a distance clarified liquid may be siphoned oil after above the bottom of the vessel. A. siphon 12 the sediment has collected on the shelves. may extend through the cover 6 and fits 9 Further objects are to provide a clarifier by snugly within the uppermost conduit. 6
means of which the clarification of liquids is In the operation of my device the liquid considerably accelerated, that is simple and is poured into the vessel and passes downdurable in construction, reliable and eflicient wardly through the spaces 8 and perforain operation, which may be readily cleaned, tlons 9. Upon standing for a time the sediand which may be manufactured at comment within the liquid will gravitate downparatively small cost. wardly to the particular shelf that is directlVith the above and other objects in view ly below. It will be apparent that the short which will appear as the description prodistanceavhich the sediment travels before ceeds, the invention consists of the novel coming in contact with a shelf will mateconstruction, adaptation, combination and rially hasten the process of clarification. It 7 arrangement of parts hereinafter described W111 also be obvious that most of the sediand claimed. These objects are accomment will be caught on the shelves and thereplished by devices illustrated in the accomfore the bottom of the vessel from whence panying drawings, wherein the liquid is siphoned will be comparatively Figure 1 is a view in central vertical secfree from dregs.

The shelves may be readily reing a removable cover 6. The numeral 7 moved and cleaned as will be readily undesignates a plurality of shelves mounted derstood.

Said shelves may be made presently set forth. any shape or size to conform to the shape Each of the shelves 7 is'provided with a of the vessel used.
lower ends are tapered to form sharp edges Having thus described my invention what in order to obviate shoulders which would I claim and desire to secure by Letters Pat- 0 obstruct the free upward passage of liquid. out is: a

In Witness whereof, I hereunto suhscrilm my name this 25th day of Ritarch A. D. 1925 ERNEST H. RICHTER.
