THOMAS S. PATTERSON, OF FLUSHING, NEW YORK.
CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 731,215, dated June 16, 1903. Application filed May 9, 1902. Renewed May 6, 1903. Serial No. 155,944. (No model.)
To all z'vhom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THOMAS S. PATTERSON, of Flushing, county of Queens, New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Centrifugal Separators, of which the following is a clear, full, and exact description.
This invention refers to a centrifugal separator designed to throw off the liquid matter contained in fibrousmaterial or extract the oils from greasy fabrics, and is adapted especially for those materials containing liquids that become more liquescent on the application of heat, whereby the extraction becomes easier. I
This machine is constructed more particularly for the extraction of greases or oil from waste or light materials in which the rotating separator is driven by steam, the exhaust being adapted to heat the material to be deprived of the oil or grease, making the grease more easy to throw off.
A further object is to provide a separator that is cheaply and simply constructed and in which the revolving sustaining parts are well lubricated by a portion of the oil extracted and a machine in which no packingis necessary.
With these ends in view I have devised the construction described hereinafter and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in
Figure 1 is a central vertical section of the machine. Fig. 2 is-asection on line2 in Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a detail view of jet and blades of a turbine used to revolve the extractor.
In the views, 10 is a standard of suitable shape provided in the bottom with a disk 11,
screwed therein, and anotherdisk 12, both 22 are secured to the disk 21 to receive the impact of the steam from a jet 23, and a curved set of blades 24 are arranged on the outside of said driving-blades, extending to the peripheral flange 25 and, being covered witha plate 26, form the chambers 27, (shown more particularly in Fig. 2,) the plate 26 being removed in this figure. A perforation 28 leads from each of these chambers 27 into the dome 29, which is secured to the plate 21 and revolves therewith and has a series of blades 30, adapted to draw and force the contents of the dome toward the outlet-pipe 31. Outside the dome and secured to the periphery of the revolving portion is a screen 32, supported in any suitable manner, butillustrated as being sustained by the standards 33 and a ring 34. This screen and the dome form the chamber for receiving the fibrous materials from which the liquid matter is to be extracted. Acasing 35 on the table portion 18 serves to receive the oil thrown off by the rotation of the screen, and a pipe. 36 carries off the oil or grease so received.
When the machine is operated, the jet 23 ejects a stream that, striking the blades 22, (see Fig. 3,) causes the plate 21 and the parts supported thereon to revolve and the blades 24 acting to propel the steam thrown back by the blades 22 through the compartment 27 and perforation 28 into the dome 29, which is heated by said steam. A set of blades 30 act to keep the steam in circulation through the dome and passes it to and through the outlet-pipe 31. It will thus be evident that any material of an oily nature or a fibrous greasy mass-as, for instance, oil soaked Wastethat is introduced into the chamber formed by the dome 29 and the screen 32 is heated, making the oil more liquescent, and the revolving of the holder centrifugally separates it from the waste, and, the casing 35 receiving it, it flows to the flat table portion 18. A duct 19 serves to lead the oil to the moving parts of the machine, insuring, their lubrication, and the pipe 36 being raised so as to place its inlet higher than the duct 19 the machine is lubricated before the surplus flows off through the pipe 36. This construction of the separator needs no packingand is economical in its Working, the steam supplying the motive power and also serving to heat the dome to assist in the liquescence of the oil or grease, and thereby hasten and fa cilitate its extraction.
The exact construction as shown of the supporting structure is not essential, as any suitable construction would suffice. Likewise any desirable mesh of screen may be em- -ploycd from a wire to a cloth strip to filter or .chamberarranged within the drum so as to heat the contents thereof, said chamber being constructed to receive the exhaust-steam.
