INVENTOA? GIL BERT L. BANCROFT ROTARY SCREEN WASHER I BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention is concerned with equipment for separating liquids from solids such as for example separating pulp stock and water. It is particularly concerned with such equipment comprising a perforate, cylindrical basket with a screw-type conveyor located within the drum and of approximately similar diameter to the internal diameter of the drum and adapted to move materials to be separated along the drum so that solids are carried through the drum and the liquids drain from it. 7
The drum or drainage basket in the pulp and paper industry is normally constructed of rolled, perforated plate although wire mesh drums or the like could be used when properly supported.
In the pulp and paper industry and, as will be L apparent, in other applications, the efficiency of a separator of this kind is directly related to the cleanliness or freedom of the drainage surface of the drum and this is particularly the case where drainage is by gravity rather than by combination of special vacuum conditions and gravity.
Perhaps the most common of the current methods of preventing blocking of the drainage surface of these drums is to provide on the flights of the screw-type conveyor, wiper blades or brushes. As these blades or brushes rotate with the screw they remove material which might otherwise clog up that surface and impede further drainage. However, these devices wear and so it is necessary that they be adjusted from time to time or be replaced.
Another method which has been proposed is to mount fixed sprays or jets outside the drum to be directed onto the drainage surface of the drum but this is not by any means satisfactory. L
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention provides equipment for separating liquids from solids of the kind comprising a cylindrical perforate drum with a screw-type conveyor located within the drum and adapted to move materials to be separated therealong in which the conveyor carries nozzles from which fluid sprays or jets can be directed outwardly onto the inner surface of the drum. Preferably the nozzles are arranged at or close to the radial extremities of the screw flights and may take the form of a tube secured immediately behind the leading edge of the flights of the conveyor. Alternatively the flights could be hollow or channeled. liquid but in certain applications it is desirable to use for example, steam or compressed air.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The embodiment of the invention in the drawings comprises a cylindrical drum 10 which is of rolled perforated or drilled plate, the perforations being indicated by reference numeral ll.
Located axially within the drum is a screw-type conveyor indicated generally at 12 and comprising a central hollow shaft 13 and flights 14. As can be seen in FIG. 2 the peripheries 15 of the flights are of knife edge configuration.
Secured to the flights as for example, by brazing or welding is a tube 16, the tube being secured close to the periphery of the flight so as to be of helical form. LThe tube is provided with holes 17 along its length whichconstitute nozzles andthe nozzles are directed outwardly of the axis of rotation ofthe conveyor i.e. are directed Ltowards the drainage surface of the stationary drum.
The end 18 of the pipe is blocked as by cap 19 and end 20 of the pipe 16 is connected to the shaft 13 by a union 21.
In use, fluid under pressure, usually water in the pulp and paper industry, but either a liquid or a. gas, is supplied to the hollow shaft 13 and from that shaft reaches the pipe 16 to be directed through the nozzle 17 onto the drainage surface of the drum 10.
It will be appreciated that the apparatus is subject L to various modifications which would not deviate from its scope. For example the tube 16 could be replaced! by forming the flights of the screw conveyor of sheet metal to be hollow as is illustrated in FIG. 3 where the flights 30 are formed by two walls 31 and 32 which define a hollow space and there are nozzles 33 at the edges of the flights directed towards the inner surface of the drum. Alternatively the end region of a flight could be turned over to form a channel extending around the edge of the screw. Similarly a conveyor with solid flights could be formed with appropriate bores or passages extending from the shaft to the outer periphery of the flights.
It has been found with the equipment according to this invention that the drainage and separation is very efficient particularly in the paper and pulp industry for separating pulp stock and the water or other liquid even though one is adding extra water.
