摘要:
In order to free a liquid form a substance dispersed therein and having a larger density than the liquid a centrifuge rotor is used having a stack of conical separation discs. Elongated spacing members (11a, 11b) in the spaces between the separation discs are formed such that the liquid flow in the disc interspaces is conducted in a certain way. Thus, the main part of the liquid is conducted in flow paths (12a, 12b), each of which has a direction with one radial component and one component turned against the rotational direction of the rotor.

The present invention concerns a centrifugal separator comprising a rotor, which forms an inlet (12) for a liquid mixture, a separation chamber (5), connected to the inlet (12), for separation of components in a liquid formed mixture and a discharge chamber (10). The discharge chamber is delimited by two axially separated end walls (12, 13) and a circumferential wall (14) extending between these and has an inlet (11, 11a) connected to the separation chamber (5), an outlet in a discharge device (17) arranged in the discharge chamber (10), and means, which together with parts of the inner surfaces of the discharge chamber (10) are arranged, during operation of the rotor, to entrain into rotation a component present in the discharge chamber (10) so that this forms a rotating liquid body. This liquid body has a radially inwards directed, essentially cylindrical, free liquid surface radially inside the circumferential wall (14). The discharge device (17) extends during operation from a central liquid free, part of the discharge chamber (10) to a level radially outside the free liquid surface. In order to gently into rotation entrain the component present in the discharge chamber (10) and make a discharge possible out of it with a small degree of air admixing the centrifugal separator according to the invention is provided with entraining means comprising at least one annular disc (19, 19a, 19b, 19c) extending around the rotational axis of the rotor which is fixedly connected to the rotor and has at least one part extending radially outside the level of the free liquid surface but radially inside the level of the outermost part of the discharge device (17).

A centrifugal separator of the type including a rotor, which is supported by a driving shaft and which forms a separation chamber and an inlet chamber. The inlet chamber being delimited by a dividing wall. An inlet tube extends axially through the dividing wall at one axial end of the inlet chamber at which the inlet channel in the tube opens. In the inlet chamber there is arranged a number of separating discs. A central part of the inlet chamber is connected to an outside space through an evacuating channel. In order to efficiently and gently separate a supplied liquid mixture without demanding a large space in the centrifugal separator, the inlet device is provided with a baffle which, between the opening of the inlet channel and the discs, extends from the rotational axis of the rotor and delimits a liquid filled inlet space. The liquid in the inlet space flowing during operation from the inlet channel radially outwards into the liquid body.

Centrifugal separator comprising a rotor which inside itself forms an inlet chamber (16), a separation chamber (5) and an outlet chamber (12). The outlet chamber (12) is connected to the separation chamber (5) via a passage (13) through which a liquid separated during operation flows into the outlet chamber (12) and in the same forms a rotating liquid body with a radially inwardly directed free liquid surface (14). The outlet chamber is provided with an outlet (19), which is located radially outside the free liquid surface (14). In the outlet chamber (12) at least two wall elements (22) are arranged fixedly connected to the rotor and arranged to form a channel between themselves in order to during operation entrain the separated liquid into the rotation of the rotor and at the same time admit flow of the same radially outwardly in the outlet chamber (12). To make an effective entrainment possible without a great risk of air admixture the wall elements (22) have a portion, which extends radially between the radial level at which the free liquid surface (14) is located and a level radially outside the outlet (19), and which has a directional component in the circumferential direction, which seen radially outwardly is directed forwardly in the rotational direction.

In a centrifugal rotor there is an inlet chamber (7), a separation chamber (8) and an outlet chamber (10), which chambers are coupled in series. A stationary outlet member (16) is arranged to remove from a predetermined level in the outlet chamber (10) separated liquid during normal operation of the centrifugal rotor. For internal cleaning of the centrifugal rotor there is arranged within the outlet chamber (10) inside said predetermined radial level a preferably stationary reconducting member (26) that is dimensioned to accomplish a recirculation flow of cleaning liquid through said chambers (7, 8, 10) in the centrifugal rotor, which circulation flow is substantially larger than the flow of liquid which during normal operation of the centrifugal rotor passes through these chambers.
摘要:
Centrifugal separator having a discharge device for the transformation of kinetic energy of a liquid rotating in a chamber around a rotational axis to pressure energy. The device comprises an element for the discharge of liquid out of the chamber, which element has a surface (20) surrounding the rotational axis arranged to be so located in the rotating liquid body that liquid flows in a predetermined direction along and in contact with the surface (20). The discharge element forms at least one outlet channel (21), which has an inlet opening (22) located in said surface (20) and which from this inlet opening (22) extends in the flow direction. Seen in the flow direction the inlet opening (22) is delimited by two opposite side edges (23, 24) and a cross edge (25) located downstream of the side edges. To make the energy transformation more efficient the opposite side edges (23, 24) of the inlet opening (22) diverge in said flow direction along a part of an extension of the side edges and at least one of the side edges has such a direction that liquid crossing the same flows into the inlet opening (22).

摘要:
An outlet device for discharging liquid from a chamber (16) in a centrifugal rotor, that is rotatable around a rotational axis (12), comprises an outlet member (29). This outlet member is turnable around a turning axis (26) in parallel with said rotational axis (12) and is held by a spring (31) pressed radially outwardly in the chamber (16) against and partly into a liquid body rotating with the centrifugal rotor. The outlet member (29), which further forms an outlet channel (34) and an inlet opening (30) communicating therewith, is shaped such that the inlet opening (30) is situated downstream of said turning axis (26) during operation of the centrifugal rotor.

A stationary discharge device ( 21 ) extends in the outlet chamber (17) from the liquid body radially inward to a central outlet (25) and in the area of the free liquid surface it forms an inlet opening (23), which is directed toward the rotational direction of the liquid body and partly is located in the liquid body, the discharge device also forming a flow channel (28), which connects the inlet opening (23) to the central outlet. To obtain a high outlet pressure with minor risk of air admixture and good stability, the inlet opening (23) is delimited by an edge, which upstream has a front edge portion (30) radially inside the free liquid surface and downstream has a rear edge portion (31) radially outside the free liquid surface, a straight line (32) drawn through said edge portions (30, 31) forming an angle (V) with a tangent to the free liquid surface at the inlet opening (23), the angle being greater than 20.degree. but smaller than 50.degree. and the vertex of the angle being directed in the rotational direction.
