Abstract
A filtering apparatus comprises a housing defining a generally closed chamber in which is provided a hollow rotatable shaft that carries a plurality of filter elements. Each of these elements is formed as an upwardly dished fluid-impervious metal plate formed with a central hole through which the hollow shaft passes and having a concave upper face formed with an array of spaced-apart bosses. A fluid-pervious filter cloth lies on the plate directly against the bosses so as to be spaced from the plate between the bosses. A ring secured to the smooth edge of each plate secures the respective filter cloth in place.
