The subject of the invention is a slit spiral tube for self-cleaning pressure filters and a self cleaning pressure filter with such a slit tube intended for purifying liquid media in a continuous cycle.
Slit filter devices with slit spiral tubes produced by such companies as PERFOPOL, PROGRESS ECO, NILTECH or PFTechnology are known. Slit spiral tubes in such filter devices consist of vertical, circumferentially arranged supports on which spiral elements are wound in the form of coils of profiled wire. The spiral elements are permanently mounted directly on vertical supports by maintaining the spiral slit between coils.

The wastewater filtration unit is known from disclosure No. WO2018031884. The filter unit contains a drum filter which consists of a rotatable drum with the surface of the filter whose first side is directed to the inside of the drum and whose second side is directed to the outside of the rotatable drum and which is smoothly connected with the source of sewage and a disc filter with an inflow smoothly connected with the first side of the surface of the rotatable drum filter. Some construction examples show that the disc filter contains a lot of disc-shaped filter elements fixed to the central drum which are configured to receive filtered sewage running through the surface of the drum filter and to filter the filtered sewage. In one construction example the disc filter inlet is smoothly connected with interior of the central drum of the disc filter. In another construction example the rotable drum of the drum filter and the central drum of the disc filter are placed along the common longitudinal axis. In some construction examples the rotable drum of the drum filter is connected with the central drum of the disc filter. According to another construction example, the disc filter moreover contains a casing which at least partially encloses the drum filter and the disc filter, whereby, the casing has an inlet spout smoothly connected with sewage and the other side of the filter surface of the rotable drum filter, an outlet spout smoothly connected with the filtrate and a sealing plate configured for separating the inlet trough from the outlet spout. In some construction examples the disc filter contains moreover a gutter with a drum filter smoothly connected with the external part of the rotatable drum. In some construction examples the disc filter contains moreover a backwashing system. Pursuant to the advantageous construction example of this invention, a filter system is thus provided which is suited for cleaning, containing a casing which designates the inlet of the liquid to be filtered and the outlet for the filtered liquid, a stack of filter discs placed in the casing and determining the upper surface of the connection with the inlet and the lower surface communicating itself with the purifying device with an outlet and a filter containing a lot of nozzles connected with the source of the backwashing liquid and ensuring a stream of liquid under high pressure, striking the lower surface and the device for assuring the movement of numerous nozzles in relation to the lower surface which results in the same systematic scanning of generally all filter discs. Advantageously, the stack of filter discs contains generally a cylindrical stack of ring-shaped discs, whereby, the upper surface is determined by the external cylindrical surface of the stack and the lower surface is determined by the interior cylindrical surface of the stack. The filter system known from the American patent description US5228993 contains filter discs which can be cleaned by backwashing. Pursuant to the advantageous construction example of this invention a filter system is thus ensured suited for cleaning, containing a casing designating the inlet of the liquid to be filtered and the outlet for the filtered liquid, a stack of filter discs placed in the casing and determining the upper surface of the connection with the inlet and the lower surface communicating itself with the purifying device with an outlet and a filter containing numerous nozzles connected with the source of the backwashing liquid and ensuring a stream of liquid under high pressure striking the lower surface and the device for assuring the movement of numerous nozzles in relation to the lower surface. Advantageously, the stack of filter discs contains generally a cylindrical stack of ring-shaped discs, whereby, the upper surface is determined by the external cylindrical surface of the stack and the lower surface is determined by the interior cylindrical surface of the stack. Pursuant to the alternative construction example of the invention, each of the numerous nozzles determines an elongated outlet of the nozzle stretching along many discs. The goal of the invention is to improve the effectiveness of cleaning the slits in slit tubes in the course of operation and thus to increase the effectiveness of purifying the inflowing medium. The slit spiral tube for self cleaning pressure filters in which the spiral element is mounted on supports and the spiral circumferential slit is situated between its coils, in accordance with the invention, is characterized by the fact that in the spiral circumferential slit there is an installed movable working spiral moving back and forth. In the first version the slit spiral tube is also characterized by the fact that the spiral circumferential slit and the movable working spiral are placed on the inside of the slit spiral tube, however, in the second version the spiral circumferential slit and the movable working spiral are placed on the outside of the slit spiral tube. Advantageously, the working spiral has a flat structure of a thickness below the height of the spiral circumferential slit. The slot self-cleaning pressure filter for dewatering liquid media, built of a cylindrical casing in which there is a medium inflow, an effluent outflow and a sludge overflow and which contains slit spiral tubes placed centrally axially one inside the other, out of which each tube has a spiral element fixed on the supports, whereas, the spiral circumferential slit is placed between the coils of the spiral element and according to the invention is characterized by the fact that in the spiral circumferential slit of each of the slit spiral tubes, a movable working spiral is fitted which moves back and forth, whereas between the slit spiral tubes there is a mounted motor-driven spiral rotatable scraper. The filter is also characterized by the fact that the slit spiral tube of a larger diameter has a spiral circumferential slit and a movable working spiral facing away from the inflowing medium from the inside of the tube, whereas, the slit spiral tube of a smaller diameter has a spiral circumferential slit and a movable working spiral facing towards the inflowing medium from the outside of the tube. The width of the spiral rotatable scraper corresponds to the distance between the slit spiral tubes. The drain outflow has a control valve.
The slit spiral tubes, according to the invention, may be used in numerous structures of self cleaning filters intended for dewatering liquid media, including multitubular ones. The advantage of the filter, according to the invention, is an uncomplicated structure of the self cleaning unit in the continuous filtering process, maintaining a constant flow parameter of the purified liquid medium and a high sediment filtrating capacity.
The subject of the invention is presented in the construction examples in the diagram where figure 1 schematically presents a self-cleaning pressure filter with slit spiral tubes shown in figure 2 and figure 3, figure 2 schematically presents a section of the slit spiral tube in the first version in accordance with the invention, with the spiral circumferential slit positioned on the inside of the slit spiral tube, whereas, figure 3 schematically presents a section of the slit spiral tube in the second version in accordance with the invention with the spiral circumferential slit placed on the outside of the slit spiral tube.
The slit spiral tube for self-cleaning pressure filters in the first construction example shown in figure 2 has a spiral element 1 fixed on supports 7 by maintaining the spiral circumferential slit”s”. The spiral element 1 is placed on the inside of the slit spiral tube. In the spiral slit”s” between the coils of the spiral element 1 , the slit tube has a mounted movable working spiral 2 of a flat structure moving back and forth. Thickness”g” of the movable working spiral 2 is smaller than the height of the spiral circumferential slit”s”. The slit spiral tube for self cleaning pressure filters in the second construction example shown in figure 3 has a spiral element 1 fixed on supports 7, by maintaining the spiral circumferential slit”s”.

Thickness”g” of the movable working spiral 2 is smaller than the height of the spiral circumferential slit”s”. The further part of the description presents an example of the slot self-cleaning filter into which slit spiral tubes with a structure as in example 1 and 2 were mounted. The slot self-cleaning pressure filter for dewatering liquid media in the construction example shown in figure 1 consists of a cylindrical casing 9 in which there is a medium inflow, an effluent outflow and a sludge overflow and it also has two slit spiral tubes placed in it centrally and axially with a spiral circumferential slit”s”, out of which one is an external tube 10 and the second one an internal tube 11. The external slit spiral tube 10 has a spiral element 1 mounted on supports 7, whereby, between the coils of the spiral element 1 there is a spiral circumferential slit”s”. The spiral element 1 is positioned on the inside of the slit spiral tube 10. A movable working spiral 2 of a flat structure moving back and forth is mounted in the spiral slit„s” between the coils of the spiral element 1. Thickness”g” of the movable working spiral 2 is smaller than the height of the spiral circumferential slit”s”.

The liquid medium is filtered, in the depicted structure, in such a way that the liquid medium flows between the slit spiral tubes, i.e. the external tube 10 and internal tube 11 under controlled pressure and is filtered on slits”s” leaking outside the slit spiral tube 10 of a greater diameter and inside the slit spiral tube 11 of a smaller diameter. The accumulated sludge on the slitted holes”s” is pushed through the space between slit spiral tubes 10 and 11 thanks to movable working spirals 2 which are moved back and forth in the slits„s” when submitted to rotational stress of the spiral scraper 3. The concentrated sludge is pushed down to their lower parts via the spiral rotatable scraper 3. The filtered liquid flows down through a drainhole and the sludge overflows through a sludge overflow 6.
