Abstract

Abstract The apparatus includes a central cylindrical element 1, extended, at its upper part, by a hopper 2, in the shape of a truncated cone ending in a roughly ovoid carter of a substantially spiral cross-section 3, extended by an air inlet 6, while the lower part of the tube forming the main body of the apparatus has the shape of a truncated cone 7 ending to a horizontal crown 8, located above a reaction plate 9, a rotating element 10-20 being located in the lower part of the main element, forming the body of the apparatus.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 161 words
Stirring apparatus for treating waste liquids, comprising: a central cylindrical element having an upper portion and a lower portion; a hopper connected to the upper portion of said cylindrical element, said hopper being in the shape of a downwardly tapered truncated cone-shaped section; a carter having a substantially spiral shaped cross-section generally transverse to the central cylindrical element at the top of said hopper, said carter including a top central air inlet and a tangential inlet for the waste liquid; an upwardly tapered truncated cone-shaped section connected to the lower portion of the cylindrical element; a ring connected to the bottom of the upwardly tapered truncated cone-shaped section, said ring being generally transverse to the central cylindrical element; a reaction plate placed substantially parallel to and under said ring; rotating means being further located at the lower part of the assembly formed by the central cylindrical element and the upwardly tapered truncated cone and means for rotatively driving said rotating means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 161 words
Stirring apparatus for treating waste liquids, comprising: a central cylindrical element having an upper portion and a lower portion; a hopper connected to the upper portion of said cylindrical element, said hopper being in the shape of a downwardly tapered truncated cone-shaped section; a carter having a substantially spiral shaped cross-section generally transverse to the central cylindrical element at the top of said hopper, said carter including a top central air inlet and a tangential inlet for the waste liquid; an upwardly tapered truncated cone-shaped section connected to the lower portion of the cylindrical element; a ring connected to the bottom of the upwardly tapered truncated cone-shaped section, said ring being generally transverse to the central cylindrical element; a reaction plate placed substantially parallel to and under said ring; rotating means being further located at the lower part of the assembly formed by the central cylindrical element and the upwardly tapered truncated cone and means for rotatively driving said rotating means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
The stirring apparatus for treating waste liquids as set forth in claim 1, wherein the rotating means includes straight wings and is located at the lower part of the central cylindrical element.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
The stirring apparatus for treating waste liquids as set forth in claim 1, wherein the rotating means includes conical blades and is located in the upwardly extending truncated cone.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
The stirring apparatus for treating waste liquids as set forth in claim 1, wherein the means provided for rotatively driving said rotating means comprises a motor located inside the apparatus.
