摘要:
A system for separating a heavy fraction from a liquid includes an upper section in fluid connection with-an inlet, an impeller within the upper section and a flow restrictor positioned below the impeller having a diameter less than the diameter of a a lower section housing to form a gap between the flow restrictor and the lower section housing. An inlet of a conduit is positioned radially inward from an interior wall of the lower section housing and below the flow restrictor. The conduit includes an outlet outside of the lower section. The lower section is generally cylindrical from the top of the gap to a baffle positioned below the flow restrictor, which defines a settling section. The lower section further includes a slurry outlet in operative communication with the settling section.

A system includes a high-pressure liquid supply system including a valve to relieve pressure upon a state change, at least one nozzle in fluid connection with the valve, and at least one filter element, the nozzle at least one being adapted to spray the filter element with high-pressure liquid upon actuation of the valve upon a state change. The high-pressure liquid supply system may, for example, be a high-pressure coolant system for use with a machine tool, and the at least one nozzle may, for example, be adapted to spray the at least one filter element to remove metal particles therefrom.

A tool holder for holding cutting inserts for machine tool work includes an integral cooling passage therethrough. Various coolant nozzles are interchangeably installable in the holder, to provide different amounts of coolant fluid flow depending upon the specific work being accomplished. The portion of the cooling passage in the tool holder adjacent to the installed nozzle, as well as the nozzles, are devoid of bends or changes in direction of the coolant flow path for greater efficiency and to ensure that the coolant flow is directed precisely at the cutting tip of the insert regardless of the radial orientation of the nozzle. The nozzles each incorporate a non-circular, preferably triangular, coolant outlet tip, which cross sectional shape blends smoothly with the circular cross sectional shape of the nozzle inlet and passage through the tool holder. The triangular cross section of the latter portion and outlet of the nozzle passage precludes any significant circumferential flow vector of the fluid flowing therethrough and flattens the sides of the fluid stream, thus precluding any significant pressure drop along the sides of the stream or expansion due to centrifugal reaction which would tend to pull the stream apart. The result is a cohesive stream which maintains its fluid force as it passes through the air from the nozzle to the insert cutting edge and workpiece. The tool holder may be adapted for use as a stationary holder for use with rotating workpieces, or as a rotating holder for use with relatively stationary workpieces.

摘要:
A system includes a processing system in which a liquid is used in processing such that at least a portion of the liquid becomes suspended in a gas and a liquid collection system in fluid connection with the processing system to decrease the amount of liquid in the suspension of the liquid in the gas. The liquid collection system includes a centrifugal pump (or blower) including a housing and a rotatable impeller within the housing. The housing also includes an inlet port and an outlet port in fluid connection therewith. The liquid collection system further includes a liquid collection device in fluid connection with the outlet port. The liquid collection device includes a gas outlet channel in fluid connection with the outlet port and a liquid outlet port spaced from the gas outlet channel and adjacent an inner surface of the housing of the centrifugal pump. The system may further include a container in fluid connection with the liquid outlet port to contain liquid (separated from the gas). In a number of embodiments, the liquid collection system includes a system housing at least partially enclosing the centrifugal pump and the liquid collection device. The system may, for example, be configured so that the liquid outlet port is positioned below the gas outlet channel. In a number of embodiments, the liquid is a coolant liquid.

A system for separating a heavy fraction from a liquid, including a housing and a mechanism in operative connection with the housing to induce rotational flow within an upper section of the housing. The system further includes a flow restrictor positioned below (that is, at the bottom of or below) the upper section of the housing in which rotational flow is induced by the rotational flow mechanism. The flow restrictor has a diameter less than the inner diameter of the housing so that a gap is formed between the flow restrictor and the housing. The housing further includes an inlet positioned above the flow restrictor and a first outlet positioned below the flow restrictor. The first outlet is positioned radially inward from an interior wall of the housing. The housing can be generally cylindrical from the top of the gap to a baffle positioned below the flow restrictor. The baffle defines a settling section for the heavier fraction. The housing further includes a second outlet in operative communication with the settling section. The system can further include a deflector positioned above the baffle and below the flow restrictor. The deflector has a diameter less than the diameter of the housing. The heavier fraction can, for example, include solid particles.
摘要:
A seal for a reciprocating plunger is formed of a hard polyimide plastic, rather than the relatively soft elastomers of earlier seals. The present seal has a conical section, with the tapered face fitting closely within the mating conical face of a hard metal retainer. An O-ring resides in a groove within the seal to provide low pressure sealing between the plastic seal and the metal retainer. The tapers of the seal and retainer urge the seal inwardly toward the plunger by operational pressures, thereby providing a better seal. The present seal provides greatly extended life over softer prior art seals, and will generally last for the life of the pump or other mechanism in which it is installed. Yet, the plastic material allows some flow under high pressures, allowing the seal to conform closely to the plunger surface during operation and throughout the life of the seal.
摘要:
A system for clamping a cutting insert on a grooving, threading, or milling tool wherein a top clamp member and a support plate are mounted on the tool's surface. The contacting surfaces of the tool, clamp member, and support plate are ground to a smooth finish. A cutting insert is formed with upper and lower V-shaped surfaces and is received in corresponding V-shaped recesses formed in edge portions of the top clamp member and the support plate. Bolts having left hand threads secure the top clamp member to the tool so as to clamp the insert between the top clamping member and the support plate.
