Abstract
A wobble centrifuge of the type in which a centrifuge drum is rotated about an axis and, in addition, has its axis gyrated about another axis for the controlled discharge of the solids from the large-diameter end of the frustoconical drum structure. The latter comprises a support arrangement of bars and rings which retain the rods forming the drum wall and defining between them openings through which the liquid is centrifugally forced. According to the invention, means is provided for imparting a periodic relative longitudinal displacement to these latter rods thereby dislodging solids which may become wedged into the gaps between the rods.
