Abstract
A device for separating solids from liquids by means of a screen that inclines at an angle to the horizontal and is accommodated in a prescribed position within a screen housing. There is a product-delivery component with a feed pipe at the higher end of the screen and a receiving chamber with a drain pipe for the separated liquid below the screen. To ensure that the screen is uniformly loaded over its total effective width and that the quality of the separated solids will accordingly remain constant as the product and feed conditions vary, the screen housing is mounted in such a way that it can be pivoted around a horizontal axis in order to vary its angle of inclination to the horizontal.
