20100273625 | SEPARATOR HAVING A LUBRICATION SYSTEM FOR A SHORT SPINDLE DRIVE - A separator including a rotatable centrifugal drum having a vertical axis of rotation and an inflow line for a material to be processed by the separator. Also included is a drive spindle for the drum rotatably mounted via a mounting to a housing supported elastically on a machine stand section. A drive device includes an electric drive motor having a stator and a rotor which is aligned with the drive spindle. A lubricant system is configured to lubricate the mounting and the lubricant system includes a lubricant circuit to convey lubricant and has a lubricant collecting container. | 10-28-2010 |
20120108413 | SEPARATOR COMPRISING A VERTICAL ROTATIONAL AXIS - A separator in which a product such as milk is to be processed, the separator includes: a centrifugal drum; an admission tube; a distributor including an admission chamber located downstream of the admission tube and distribution channels leading into a centrifugal chamber of the centrifugal drum. A rib body is located in the admission chamber and the rib body provides an outlet to the distributor channels. The rib body includes a plurality of ribs and a base section connecting the plurality of ribs along a periphery of the base section. | 05-03-2012 |
20140051563 | PHASE-SEPARATION METHOD FOR A PRODUCT, USING A CENTRIFUGE - A method for processing a product by phase separation into two liquid phases and a solids phase. The method step includes processing the product, the processing occurring in a continuously operating centrifuge arranged as a separator, the separator including a rotatable drum having a vertical rotational axis, a disk stack having risers arranged in the drum, a product feed tube, a first separation disk for discharging a lighter liquid phase, a second separator disk for discharging a heavier liquid phase, solids discharge openings for discharging a solids phase from the drum, and a separation zone formed between the lighter liquid phase and the heavier liquid phase in the separator. | 02-20-2014 |
20140057772 | PHASE-SEPARATION METHOD FOR A PRODUCT, USING A CENTRIFUGE - A method for the continuous processing of a product such as a vegetable or animal oil or fat. The processing occurs via a separation into two liquid phases and a solid phase. The method step includes processing the product, the processing occurring in a centrifuge arranged as a separator, the separator including a rotatable drum, a disk stack having risers arranged in the drum, a product feed having a feed tube, a first separator disk to discharge a lighter liquid phase from the drum, a second separator disk to discharge a heavier liquid phase from the drum, and a solids discharge opening to discharge a solids phase from the drum. A separation zone is formed between the lighter phase and the heavier phase in the separator. | 02-27-2014 |
20140083954 | METHOD FOR PROCESSING A PRODUCT IN A CENTRIFUGAL FIELD - A method for processing a free-flowing product. The method steps include: providing at least one separator having a vertical axis of rotation, a rotatable centrifugal drum, and a plate assembly arranged in the drum; supplying the free-flowing product into the drum; separating one or more of a solid phase and at least two liquid phases from the free-flowing product; and discharging one or more of the liquid phases and the solid phase out of the drum. | 03-27-2014 |
20140200128 | Centrifuge - A centrifuge, in particular a separator, includes a rotatable centrifuge drum with a vertical axis of rotation and a non-rotatable fixed housing with a hood and preferably a solids collector. In the centrifuge, the housing, in particular the fixed hood and/or at least one other part of the housing, have at least one first inner wall and a first outer wall which delimit a first cavity. The cavity is at least partly filled with damping/insulation agents that are solid at a process or ambient temperature. A coolant that has a fluid form at a process and/or ambient temperature can be introduced into the first cavity filled with the solid damping/insulation agents. | 07-17-2014 |
20140249012 | Separator Having a Lubrication System for a Short Spindle Drive - A separator including a rotatable centrifugal drum having a vertical axis of rotation and an inflow line for a material to be processed by the separator. Also included is a drive spindle for the drum rotatably mounted via a mounting to a housing supported elastically on a machine stand section. A drive device includes an electric drive motor having a stator and a rotor which is aligned with the drive spindle. A lubricant system is configured to lubricate the mounting and the lubricant system includes a lubricant circuit to convey lubricant and has a lubricant collecting container. | 09-04-2014 |
20150051059 | Separator Arrangement - A separator arrangement includes a drum with a vertical axis and which is rotatably mounted in a hooded area and placed on a rotatable drive spindle. The arrangement also includes a sealed drive area containing one or more or all of the components of a separator drive, and a pump that generates negative pressure in the sealed drive area relative to the surroundings outside of the drive area. | 02-19-2015 |
