To prevent uneven rotary speeds of the inner rotor of a nested triple-rotor centrifuge in which a separating container is located in an inner rotor and connected by means of soft-elastic integral connecting tubes with the outside of the centrifuge, and without slip joints, and wherein the three nested, coaxially positioned rotors are independently rotatable with respect to each other, a positive synchronizing drive connection (25, 33) is established between the outer rotor (4) and the drive conn...

A separating device for separating materials from each other having different melting points, particularly a mixture of plasticized and non-plasticized solid material, includes a housing having a bore and a plurality of successively arranged disc within the bore. The discs are located relative to each other and are of such configuration as to define screening gaps. The plasticized material is separated by passage through the screening gaps as the mixture including substantially all of the solid ...

Separating apparatus comprises a rotor having a plurality of impeller blades rotatably mounted in a support housing. In the normal course of apparatus use, fluid flow occurs through opposed rotor open ends. Drive motor elements for rotating the rotor are mounted partly in the rotor and partly in the surrounding casing whereby the rotor may be driven without the necessity of a drive shaft attached to the rotor, and the opposed rotor ends remain unobstructed. In one rotor embodiment, fluid enters ...

The invention relates to a separating device, particularly for separating solids from liquids, preferably from the quantity of reverse flow of a reverse flow filter system. The separating device comprises: a spinning screen provided in the form of a drum screen (17) having an annular screen wall (21); a spray tube (15), which supplies the liquid to the drum screen (17) and which, with regard to its opening (26) to the inside of the screen wall (21) of the drum screen (17), extends in an at least...

A separating tank assembly enables a dental vacuum separating tank to be drained without using a pump and without turning off or isolating the vacuum source from the tank. A drain tank is provided in fluid communication with the separating tank, and a control valve controls a pressure differential between the drain tank and the fluid tank. When the separating tank is filling, the drain tank and separating tank pressures are equalized, and the tanks are in fluid communication. When the fluid in t...

A simplified collecting operation of a biological sample is provided, which enables reduction of the examination cost. The invention comprises a biological sample collecting means 2 for receiving a collected biological sample, a filtering means 21 for passing a predetermined component within the collected biological sample therethrough, a separated component containing means 3 capable of being fitted into the biological sample collecting means 2, for receiving the predetermined component that is...

In order to enable a reliable and continuous separation of a solid material, a separating device includes a moving belt which revolves around deflection rollers. Transverse strips and longitudinal strips are provided on the moving belt. The transverse and longitudinal strips form screen surfaces. Solid material having a predetermined maximum dimension falls through these screen surfaces. The portions of solid material which are caught between the transverse strips are automatically loosened when...

An oil separating mechanism to be attached to a cylinder block having a concave portion includes a cover member for forming a closed space; a partition wall for dividing the closed space into an inner chamber and an outer chamber; a dividing wall for dividing the inner chamber into a first inner chamber and a second inner chamber; a gas inlet for introducing gas into the first inner chamber; a gas outlet for discharging the gas; a first gas port for communicating the first inner chamber with the...

A polarization separating filter, which can be integrated into a planar hollow waveguide circuit, is comprised of a central hollow waveguide (1), in which two orthogonal, linearly polarized waves can be propagated, where one end of the central hollow waveguide (1) is closed by a short circuit wall (2) and in the vicinity of the short circuit wall (2), two waveguides (3, 4) are coupled to two opposing walls of the central hollow waveguide (1), in an at least approximately identical cross sectiona...

There is provided an apparatus and methods for separating an article of laundry from a bundle of articles. The bundle is located in a truck which is clamped into a carriage by means of clamping arm or attached to guide rails. The truck is moved by suitable drive means in a controlled manner beneath a grip device which is movable into and out of the truck. The grip device is mounted on a carriage which is movable upwards relative to a frame by means of a winch and downwards by gravity. The grip d...
