Abstract
Cyclone separator having a separating chamber with first, second and third contiguous cylindrical portions arranged in that order and of progressively decreasing diameter, tangential feed inlets to the first cylindrical portion and two outlets each arranged axially and one extending from the first cylindrical portion and the other from the third cylindrical portion. The cyclone separator has a fourth cylindrical portion leading from the outlet from the third cylindrical portion and arranged to provide a constriction against flow therethrough. The outlet from the first cylindrical portion has a flow blockage clearing means operable, under the condition of blockage of that outlet by debris to open up the area available for outflow to facilitate clearance of the blockage.
