Abstract
Abstract The drum-type honeycombless vacuum filter comprises a rotatable drum partly submerged in a pan holding the suspension to be filtered and having a distributor head disposed along its axis, one space of said distributor head being in communication with a vacuum chamber and another with a vacuum collector of filtrate. The drum is formed as a rigid inner plastic shell, with open-end vessels arranged in side-by-side relationship secured thereto. The channels defined in the vessels form a space for collection of filtrate. An outer shell is formed over said vessels by a binder-impregnated glass fabric wrapped over them. A drainage means in fluid flow communication with the channels of the vessels is secured to the outer shell. The channels of the vessels are communicated by a common annular channels opening through pipes into the distributor head.
