Abstract
A dewatering apparatus of filter belt type has a guide member having a guide surface whose radius of curvature becomes smaller in the direction of belt travel. An endless roller chain travels along the guide member. A restricting sprocket has a pair of engaging tooth surfaces for engaging with rollers of said roller chain and is rotatably supported near one end portion of the guide member. Endless filter belts hold sludge between an upper filter belt and a lower filter belt. The filter belts are arranged to partly overlap on the rollers from a side of the guide surface of a larger radius of curvature and to depart from the rollers at a side of the guide surface of a smaller radius of curvature, whereby the upper filter belt and the lower filter belt are separated from each other to discharge the sludge. Driving rollers give a traction to the filter belts at a side at which the filter belts are separated from the roller chain.
