| 494042000 | INCLUDING DRIVEN MEANS AT LEAST PARTIALLY EXTERNAL OF BOWL FOR MOVING MATERIAL THERETO OR THEREFROM | 7 |
| 20080318756 | Blood Processing Apparatus with Flared Cell Capture Chamber and Method - A cell separation set for separating blood components, having a cell separation chamber with a first entry section having a wall with an outwardly flared curve, the entry section having an axial length and an inmost maximum diameter perpendicular to the axial length, the axial length being greater than the inmost maximum diameter. The cell separation chamber further comprises a separation section having a wall comprising an inward curve. A transition section between the entry section and the separation section has a wall comprising a second inward curve, the second inward curve being different from said first inward curve. The first curve may be tangent to the second curve at a first junction between the first and second curves and the second curve may be tangent to the third curve at a second junction between the second and third curves. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090197753 | CYCLONE SEPARATOR FOR BLAST FURNACE GAS - The invention relates to a cyclone separator for blast furnace gas including: a cyclone vessel having a central axis and including a side wall, a top wall and bottom wall; a first inlet duct connected with an end to the side wall of the cyclone vessel at a predetermined position intermediate the top and bottom wall; and a central outlet duct which traverses through the top wall of the cyclone vessel and extends into the cyclone vessel, and a further inlet duct connected with an end to the side wall of the cyclone vessel in circumferentially spaced relationship to the first inlet duct. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20100016140 | ENDLESS SCREW OF A CENTRIFUGE - The invention relates to an endless screw of a centrifuge for discharging centrifuged material from a centrifuge, comprising a series of thin ceramic plates which are fixed next to one another at the outer edge of the screw, characterized in that at least two formed ceramic projections, particularly ceramic pins, protrude from the thin ceramic plates and are arranged in one or two lateral faces of the edge of the screw, i.e. in recesses which are profiled according to the protrusions or pins. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20120252651 | Continuous Centrifuge Feed Pipe Mixing System - A feed pipe mixing system for delivering a homogenous massecuite product to a centrifuge comprising: a vertical feed pipe defining an upper end, and a lower end, the vertical feed pipe comprising: a mixing chamber disposed between the upper and lower ends of the vertical feed pipe and operable to mix a massecuite feed with feed water, surfactants, partially diluted molasses or a combination thereof to produce a massecuite product; a massecuite inlet disposed on the side of the vertical feed pipe above the mixing chamber, wherein the massecuite inlet is configured to deliver a massecuite feed into the vertical feed pipe; a massecuite outlet disposed on the lower end of the vertical feed pipe and configured to discharge the homogenous massecuite product from the feed pipe to a centrifuge; and a feed water pipe configured to deliver feed water, surfactants, partially diluted molasses or a combination thereof to the mixing chamber for mixing with the massecuite feed. | 10-04-2012 |
| 20120316051 | System for Blood Separation with Side-Tapped Separation Chamber - A disposable blood separation set and a centrifugal blood processing system comprising a blood processing chamber adapted to be mounted on a rotor of a centrifuge; a frustro-conical cell separation chamber in fluid communication with the processing chamber, the cell separation chamber having an inlet, and outlet and a side tap outlet adjacent the inlet. The inlet may protrude into the cell separation chamber forming a circumferential well surrounding the protruding inlet. The side tap outlet may connect to the well. The set and system comprise means for selectively drawing fluid from either the outlet or the side tap outlet. | 12-13-2012 |
| 20130072369 | CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATOR - A centrifugal separator includes a separation drum, a feed inlet, at least one heavy material outlet with a ring-shaped recess and at least one light material outlet. The feed inlet is located at the head of the separation drum. A feed accelerator is installed at the feed inlet. This feed accelerator cooperates with the proper form of the separation drum and the corresponding location of the material outlet to form a material differential rotation propulsion device. The material differential rotation propulsion device is capable of rotating the feed slurry material along with the separation drum in a slightly different rotation speed and forcing the processed materials to be discharged from separation drum via different outlets. The infeed flow rate is larger than or equal to the total sum of the outfeed flow rates of heavy and light materials so that the separation drum is full of materials during operation. | 03-21-2013 |
| 20160121343 | DISCHARGERS AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME - In one embodiment, a discharger for a centrifuge includes a discharger subassembly including multiple wear plates, each wear plate has an internal surface and an external surface, a receptacle that has lateral dimensions set by the internal surfaces of the multiple wear plates, multiple backing plates laterally positioned around the external surfaces of the multiple wear plates, and at least one spacing mechanism passing through part if the discharger subassembly near the external surface of the multiple wear plates, the discharger also includes a discharger ram to be placed into a receiving area of the discharger subassembly, so on insertion, the wear plates are situated between the discharge ram and the backing plates, and the discharger also includes a discharger shoe assembly joined to the discharger subassembly by the discharger ram, the discharger ram being able to position the discharger shoe assembly. | 05-05-2016 |
