20090313958 | CYCLONIC SEPARATING APPARATUS - A cyclonic separating apparatus for separating particles from a dirt-laden airflow includes a cyclone for separating and collecting dirt and dust from the dirt-laden airflow. The cyclone has an air inlet, an air outlet, a longitudinal axis and a wall. The wall includes a first portion and a second portion spaced farther from the longitudinal axis than the first portion, the first and second portions being spaced along the longitudinal axis. The cyclone also includes at least one lip extending from the first portion of the wall into a portion of the cyclone surrounded by the second portion of the wall. By providing a cyclone with a wall having two portions of different sizes and a lip extending from the portion with the smaller size into the portion with the larger size, the risk of blockages due to re-entrainment and movement of dirt and dust within the cyclonic separating apparatus is reduced. | 12-24-2009 |
20110138757 | Air separator and purifier device - An air separator and purifier device, structured to mainly include a main air extractor installed within a cylindrical housing, an air inlet and an air vent are provided in the upper and lower ends of the housing respectively to form a filter passageway, and filtering equipment is installed in the filter passageway. The air separator and purifier device is characterized in that: the housing includes an upper cylindrical body and a lower cylindrical body; a partition plate is located between the upper and lower cylindrical bodies; a round hole defined in the center of the partition plate connects with an air suction port of the main air extractor installed within the lower cylindrical body; and a preseparation structure and an air filter screen are installed within the upper cylindrical body and the lower cylindrical body respectively. | 06-16-2011 |
20120005996 | MULTISTAGE SEPARATION SYSTEM - A “bolt on” static separator is disclosed for use in conjunction with a rotating separator to handle higher liquid volumes that are not able to be effectively separated by the rotating separator alone. The static separator may be positioned upstream of the rotating separator, generally right in front of the rotating separator, i.e., immediately ahead of the inlet to the rotating separator and generally attached directly to the front end of the rotary separator. The static separator may include a significant change in flow path direction that is sufficient to cause coarse fluid separation. The output of the static separator is in communication with the input of the rotating separator. Additionally, the drain of the static separator is in communication with the drain of the rotating separator and is at the same pressure. | 01-12-2012 |
20140053517 | MULTISTAGE SEPARATION SYSTEM - A multistage separation system is provided. The multistage separation system may include a rotary shaft configured to drive a compressor. A rotating separation system may be coupled with the rotary shaft and may have an outlet in fluid communication with an inlet of the compressor. A static separation system may be coupled with a front end portion of the rotating separation system. The static separation system may include an axial inlet configured to receive a fluid and a static separation curve fluidly coupled with and disposed radially outward of the axial inlet. The static separation curve may include an outlet fluidly coupled with an inlet of the rotating separation system. | 02-27-2014 |
20140157735 | Apparatus, Methods and Systems for Removing Particulate Impurities from Above a Shale Shaker - A filter apparatus and assembly for use in association with a shale shaker is described, the apparatus including a generally annular housing, a fluid inlet and outlet, and an air flow-path extending therethrough, the apparatus being adapted to remove contaminants and debris from a fluid flowing from a drilling operation into a shale shaker. In accordance with select aspects of the invention, the filtering assembly has at least one deflection plate mounted inside the housing to aid in reducing or disrupting the velocity of debris within the fluid. | 06-12-2014 |
20140230381 | SEPARATING DEVICE, AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE AND CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATOR ASSEMBLY AND A METHOD OF SEPARATING CONTAMINANTS FROM CRANKCASE GAS - An internal combustion engine and centrifugal separator assembly separates contaminants from crankcase gas. A crankcase is connected to the centrifugal separator including a centrifugal rotor. A rotor housing delimits a separation space in which the centrifugal rotor is arranged to rotate. A gas inlet conducts crankcase gas to a central part of the centrifugal rotor. A gas outlet communicates with a part of the separation space surrounding the centrifugal rotor and to conduct cleaned crankcase gas out of the separation space. A particle outlet communicates with the part of the separation space. The particle outlet is connected to a collector for the separated particles. The collector is configured to communicate with the gas inlet via a connection to provide a pressure difference between the particle outlet and the collector. The separated particles are drawn out of the particle outlet and into the collector during operation of the centrifugal separator. | 08-21-2014 |
