SEPARATO R.
SPECIFICATION forming peri; of Lettere Patent No. 743,388, dated November s, 1903.
Application iiled March 11. 1903- Seral No. 147.294. (No model.)
.To a/ZZ whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, HENRY H. HUMPHREY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Del troit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Separatore, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates particularly to a steam-separator adapted to free the steam from water, oil, or other extraneous matter; and it consists in the novel construction of a separator of this type and in the peculiar and simple arrangement and combination of its various parts, as will be more fully hereinafter described, and pointed outin the claims.
In the drawings, Figure l is a front elevation of the separator'V embodying my invention, a portion of the casing being removed.
Fig. 2 is a vertical central section therethrough taken at right angles to Fig. l, and Fig. 3 is a section on line am; of Fig. 2.
In construction the separator comprises a casing A, preferably oval in form and provided with supports or standards B at its lower end.
C and D represent, respectively, the inlet and outlet ports for the steam, which, as shown, are formed in the upper portion of the casing directly opposite each other. Suspended within the casing by means of stayrods E is a baiiie-plate F, arranged opposite the inlet-port and provided with adepending drip section or leg G, projecting downwardly within the lower portion of the casing which forms the well.
H represents a drip-port in the extreme lower end of the casing for the discharge of water or other extraneous matter that accumulates in the well.
Arranged upon the batido-plate, the main portion of which is preferably circular in form, are a plurality of intercepting devices, in this particular instance ribs or ridges I, which are adapted to catch and retain the impurities as the steam strikes against the plate and convey the same to the well. In the drawings the ribs are shown as concentrically arranged upon the batido-plate, the central ridges J being prolonged or continued beyond the plate proper to and extending longitudinally of the leg section. As the steam enters the inlet-port it strikes against and is deflected by the baiiie-plate and, passing about .the sides thereof, is discharged through the exit D. Im pu rities-such as oil, grit, &c.-are retained upon the plate by the ridges or ribs and conveyed to the lower edge and along the depending section thereof to a discharging-point below the course of travel of the steam, which eectively prevents the impurities from being carried through the separator.
In order that the extraneous matter will not pass over Ythe side portions of the plate, guides in the form of iianges K are employed, extending about the lower peripheral portions of the plate upon opposite sides of its depending section and also down the section sides. The impurities that are caught bythe outer concentric ribs are conveyed to these flanges or guides and are discharged through their agency into the well.
As a further safeguard I preferably employ al semicircular guard-flange L for the inletport and arrange the same about the lower portion thereof, as indicated in Figs. 2 and 3. This fiange is secured to the casing in a manner to form a trough and has a discharge opening or openings ct formed in its lower portion, through which the impurities are conveyed to the casing side and conducted thereby to the well. A somewhat similar intercepting means is also employed for the outletport. In this case it consists of an annular flange N, extending about the interior of the port and suitably secured to the casin g, there being a space b between the ffiange proper and the portion of the casing adjacent there` to, through which the collected impurities pass and are conveyed to the casing side.
From the descriptionA of my invention it will be apparent that the separator is simple,
effective, and may be manufactured at slight cost. Further, the baffle-plate is constructed and combined with the casing in a manner that will eectively prevent the impurities in the steam from being carried by the latter through the separator.
What I claim as my invention is 1. In a steam-separator, the combination of an inclosing casing having oppositely-ar- ICC ranged inlet and outlet ports and imperforate baftleplate suspended centrally within the casing, free from the walls thereof and op-I posite the inlet-port.
2. In a steam-separator, the combination of an inclosing casing provided with an inlet and an outlet port, and imperforate baffleplate suspended within the casing free from the walls thereof and opposite the inlet-port, said plate having a drip-section extending beyond the path of the steam.
3. In a steam-separator, the combination with an inclosing casing provided with inlet and outlet ports, of a baiile-plate suspended within the casing opposite its inlet and free from the casing-walls, and a plurality of substantially circular projectingintercepting devices con c entrically arranged upon the plate.
4. In a steam-separator, the combination with a casing provided with inlet and outlet ports, of a baffle-plate within the casing opposite its inlet havinga depending section or leg projecting in the plane of the plate below the path .of the steam, and circuitous intercepting devices arranged upon the baffleplate and its depending section.
5. In a steam-separator, the combination with a casing provided with inlet and outlet ports, ot' a bathe-plate within the casing opposite the inlet having a depending section or leg projecting below the path of the steam, and a plurality of ribs arranged concentrically upon the plate, and extending longitudinally upon the leg-section.
6. In a steam-separator, the combination with the inclosing casing provided with inlet and outlet ports, of a baille-plate within the casing opposite the ports, having a depending drip-section projecting below the path of the steam, guide-flanges upon the .lower` peripheral portions ot' the plate extending downwardly along the sides of the drip-section, and a plurality of intercepting devices upon the plate extending to and along the dripsection intermediate of the side fianges.
7. In a steam-separator, the combination with the separator-casing provided with an inlet and an outlet port, a baffle-plate within the casing, and a curved guard-flange angle- 5'o shaped in cross-section secured to theinterior of the casing about the lower portion of the inlet-port and having a discharge opening or openings formed in its bottom portion.
8. In a steam-separator, the combination of a vertical inclosing casing having transversevinlet and outlet ports oppositely arranged within its upper portion, and a flat circular bale-plate suspended by rods within the casing, free from the Walls thereof and opposite the ports.
9. In a steamseparator, the combination of a vertical inclosing casing having trans- Verse inlet and outlet ports, of a battle-plate within the casing opposite t-he inlet, a ilat depending section or leg of relatively less width than the plate projecting downwardly below the inlet-port and beyond the path of the steam, and deiiecting means at the lower portion of the plate leading to the depending section or leg.
lO. In a steam-separator, the combination with a casing provided with inlet and outlet ports, of a battle-plate within the casing opposite the inlet,-a depending section of relatively less Width than the plate projecting downwardly below the inlet-port beyond the path of the steam, and intercepting devices upon said bathe-plate and its depending section.
ll. In a steam-separator, the combination with a casingprovided with inlet and outlet ports, of a battle-plate within thecasing opposite the inlet having a depending section or leg projecting below the path of the steam, and intercepting devices upon the plate extending longitudinally upon the depending section.
l2. In a steam-separator the combination with the separator-casing provided with an inlet and an outlet port, abaftle-plate within the casing and a guard-flange secured to the interior of the casing about the lower portion of the inlet-port and having a discharge opening or openings in its bottom portion.
In testimony whereof I aftix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HENRY H. HUMPHREY.
