Abstract
A washing apparatus for a filter press comprises a spray pipe having a number of nozzles and disposed outside of the filter plates so as to extend parallel to one side of such filter plate, a movable unit in which one end of the spray pipe opposed to a lower corner of such filter plate is pivotally mounted and which is movable in a region outside of the filter plates parallelly to the latter, a carriage supporting the movable unit and movable in a region outside of the filter plates in the direction of movement of the latter, which carriage, each time a filter plate is transferred toward a movable end plate, serves to carry the movable unit in a direction opposite to the direction of such transfer so as to position the spray pipe between separated filter plates, a mechanism for moving the movable unit to and fro when the spray pipe is positioned between separated filter plates, and a second mechanism for raising and lowering the spray pipe synchronously with the to-and-fro movement of the movable unit, these mechanisms being disposed below the filter plates.
