and useful Improvements in Liners for Centrifugal Separatous, of which the following is a specification.

This inventionl pertains to centrifugal separators, and relates more particularlyto the interior part or liner of centrifugal creamseparators of that kind wherein separate articulated liner plates held by supporting rings are arranged concentrically around atube positioned centrally Within the drumof the machine.

'lhe annexed drawing illustrates an example ot' a construction embodying the vinvention, in which Figure l is a horizontal"section of a drum or bowl on the line Fig. 2 a vertical section of Fig. 1. Fig. plates.-

In the drawing, drum or bowl, the same being provided with a cover, 7). Said bowl is provided, at its center. with a tube, 0, fixed to the cover and connected to the drum, a, by a bolt, d, the latter being provided with a suspension hook. .lu the drum, (1, are positioned a false bottom, 0, of known construction, and a liner composed of separated liner plates, f.

The liner of this invention embodies in its construction a plurality of liner 4 which are provided with stops, to hold them apart, and said liner plates are fixedly comicctcd (by means of rivets, 1', for ex- :uuplc) in the central part of the drum to pivotal rods or bars, /1., the latter being, preferably, cylindrical. These pivotal rods or bars rest agaisnt the periphery of the central tube, 0. and are maintained in position bylhc ring, 1', which is introduced in slots, s, of the liner plates before said liner plates are fixed to the rods or bars, it. Each liner plate is provided. on its inner vertical edge, with one of the, slots. .9, as shown more clearly in Fig. 3. said slot extending longitudinally audio somc-clvtent into the body of the liner plate. The ring; 2', partially fills the slots, a, in the series CD.0f Fig. 2. on the line AB 3 illustrates one of the liner ring so as to constitute a liner,

directly. As

a designates the so-called to approach the v gaging this particular accessible at all parts :tor cleaning and dry.

plates, f,

ot' liner plates, and the liner plates are connected by the struction described, the liner constitutes an inseparable whole, and that. it does not require any of its parts to be separately removed ior cleaning purposes. The construction is devoid of grooves or recesses in the supporting ring, which would be inaccessible without removing the parts; further. when the. rods or bars. l2, position on the drum, to which bars the liner plates are fixed. they automatically take their proper place and without, leaving an spaces between them, in such a way that the are placed in Patented Sept. 6, 1910.;

setting of the liner plates is determined in an absolute manner: furthermore, the liner platescannot become inclined nor become displaced from engagement with the'central tube, 0," during cleaning they can swing sidewise with the bars, h, as the axes of movement, while being maintained by the ring, 2', so that the particular plate to be cleaned may be adjusted or shifted on the ring so as correspoi'nling bar, 71', to the center of the ring, '1', thus completely disenbar and to render it lug purposes.

From the foregoing description it; will be seen that all the parts of our liner for separating drums are may be inserted into. drum while. in such whereby the user cannot uiislay or lose any of the parts. nor are the parts liable tobe damaged, when the liner is removed from the drum. W'hen so removed, all the parts of the liner are easily accessible for cleaning them. and no interstices or crevices are provided in any of the ties can lodge. l urthcrmore. upon the insertion of the liner into the drum. the parts are. so positioucd' that the equilibrium of the drum is assured without difiiculty and without the necessity for adjusting or regulating the parts in a particular manner.

What we claim is: a 1. In a liner for centrifugal sepaiators, a liner plates adapted to or removed from, the

supporting ring,

connected so that they I connected condition,

parts wherein impuri-' slide on said ring. and means located in the l vided with a radial slot. whereby said liner interior of the supporting ring, whereby the plates are adapted to slide on the supportliner plates are maintaintal in position and are adapted, also to be rotated independently when the liner witlulrawn from. the

bowl of the separator.

2. In a liner i'or centrifugal separators. a supporting ring, liner ].)lates adapted to slide on said ring, a central tube within. a separator bowl, and supporting means bodily connected with the liner plates and filling the space between the stu'iporting ring and said central tube.

In a liner for centrifugal separators, a supporting rin g liner plates adapted to slide on said ring, a. central tube Within a separator bowl, and a supporting member tor each liner plate, said members being; positioned between the supporting ring and said central tube.

4. In a liner for centrifugal separators, a supporting ring, liner plates adapted to slide on said ring, a central tube or the separator bowl, and a supporting member for each liner plate, said supporting members being rigidly connected to the liner plates and engaging the inner face of the supporting ring and the outer face of said central tube.

5. In a liner for centrifugal separators, a supporting ring, liner plates adapted to slide on said ring, a tube positioned within the bowl of the separator, and rods connected to the liner plates and located between the supporting ring and said tube.

6. In a liner for centrifugal separators, a supporting ring, liner plates each proing ring, and a plurality of rods each eon- 40 nected to one liner plate and positioned within the supporting ring.

7. In combination. a bowl of a centrifugal separator, a tube within said bowl, a supporting ring coruteutric with said tube, a 5 plurality of rods positioned intermediate the supporting ring and said tube, said rods engaging with the supporting ring and said tube, and linerplates adapted to slide 11 the supporting ring and each attached to one of said rods.

8. In a rentri'lugal separator, a liner comprisinga supporting member adapted to be positioned substautialtr (Ventrally within a separator bowl or \essel, aseries of plates each curred in the direction of the length thereof, said plates baring sliding engagement with said supporting member, means positioned within the supporting i'nember li'or sparing the inner ends of said curved 60 plates, and a spacing device carried by the outer ends of each curred plate, said plates with the supporting; weather and the spac ing devices being insertible and removable. as a unit with respeetto the. bowl or vessel.

In testimon whereof we. have signed our names to this specification in the. presence ol. two subscribing witnesses.
