Apparatus for separating a fiber suspension is provided including a housing with an upper chamber in the upper portion thereof, a rotor rotatably mounted in the housing, a first rotary screen mounted for rotation with the rotor and dividing the housing into a first screen chamber and a first accept chamber, a second screen radially outward from the rotor defining a second screen chamber, the diameter of the first rotary screen being less than that of the second screen, the first rotary screen being located within the second screen, an inlet, a reject outlet, at least one accept outlet and a stator within the first rotary screen including at least one pulse member for creating a pulse within the first rotary screen, the diameter of the housing being less than the diameter of the second screen and the first rotary screen being separated from the second screen chamber and located at least partially within the second screen chamber.

Screening apparatus including two screen means

A pressure screen for separating a liquid mixture is disclosed, comprising a screen housing forming a cylindrical screen chamber, and an inlet housing directly connected to the screen housing and forming a cylindrical inlet chamber, the diameter of which is less than the diameter of the screen chamber. An inlet member is positioned on the inlet chamber for supplying a suspension to be separated substantially tangentially into the inlet chamber and an outlet member is positioned on the inlet chamber for discharging coarse contaminants from the inlet chamber, whereby the scrap particles are prevented from entering the screen chamber.

Pressure screen with scrap separation

Screening apparatus is disclosed for separating fiber suspensions comprising a housing having an inlet for the fiber suspension, a stationary tubular screen dividing the interior of the housing into a central chamber for receiving the fiber suspension from the inlet and an outer accept chamber for receiving an accept portion of the fiber suspension which has passed through the stationary tubular screen, a rotor journalled on the housing for rotation within the central chamber coaxially with the stationary tubular screen, the rotor including a rotationally symmetrical element, a reject chamber for receiving a reject portion of the fiber suspension at one end of the stationary tubular screen, and an annular passage for dilution liquid including a stationary annular wall portion juxtaposed with the rotationally symmetrical element of the rotor.

Screening apparatus with dilution liquid supply means

Screening apparatus is disclosed for separating fiber suspensions including a housing having an inlet for the fiber suspension, a stationary tubular screen having an inlet end adjacent to the housing inlet and an outlet end, and dividing the interior of the housing into a central chamber for receiving the fiber suspension from the inlet, and an outer accept chamber for receiving an accept fraction of the fiber suspension, a rotor journalled on the housing for rotation within the central chamber coaxially with the stationary tubular screen, a reject passage for receiving a reject portion of the fiber suspension at the outlet end of the stationary tubular screen, and an annular reject passage which has a radial width and a cross-sectional area at the outlet end of the stationary tubular screen for discharging the reject portion of the fiber suspension from the central chamber to the reject passage, the annular reject passage including an annular flange attached to the inner wall of the passage, resilient tubing disposed in the annular groove connectable to a source of pressure whereby the resilient tubing can be extended and contracted and an elastic ring surrounding the resilient tubing.
