792,741. Filtering apparatus. PASSAVANT, W., PASSAVANT, U., and SCHRAMM, P., [trading as PASSAVANT-WERKE]. June 29, 1956 [July 1, 1955], No. 20275/56. Class 46. Equipment, more particularly for sewage purification plant, comprises a semi-cylindrical screen b with horizontal bars, scraper blades d, d 1 , which rotate about axis c, and a comminutor h. The blades scrape the solids to the inlet shaft g of the comminutor h. The disintegrated material is discharged through i upstream of the filter, and objects the machine h cannot break can be cleared from time to time through a shaft k. In modifications the screen may be flat and be disposed obliquely to the direction of the flow and the comminutor may discharge the disintegrated material downstream of the screen.
