Abstract
Abstract An apparatus for separating ferromagnetic materials from fluid media has a working passage divided by a partition into sections filled with an insert of ferromagnetic material. A magnetizing system is arranged coaxially with the working passage. An arrangement for imparting reciprocations to the magnetizing system is fashioned as at least two electromagnetic coils with one such coil at the opposite ends of the passage, parameters of the coils being such as to ensure movement of the magnetizing system between two extreme positions.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
130 words
An apparatus for separating ferromagnetic materials from fluid media, comprising: at least one stationary working passage divided by a hermetic partition into two successive sections each containing an insert of ferromagnetic material, having an inlet pipe for feeding a fluid medium to be cleaned to a respective section and an outlet pipe for discharging a clean fluid medium, and a magnetizing system arranged outside the passage for magnetizing the ferromagnetic insert of one section and provided with a means for imparting reciprocations to the ferromagnetic insert along the passage between two extreme positions, corresponding to each successive section, the means for imparting reciprocations comprising at least two electromagnetic coils arranged at opposite ends of the passage, so that the coils ensure movement of the magnetizing system between the extreme positions.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
130 words
An apparatus for separating ferromagnetic materials from fluid media, comprising: at least one stationary working passage divided by a hermetic partition into two successive sections each containing an insert of ferromagnetic material, having an inlet pipe for feeding a fluid medium to be cleaned to a respective section and an outlet pipe for discharging a clean fluid medium, and a magnetizing system arranged outside the passage for magnetizing the ferromagnetic insert of one section and provided with a means for imparting reciprocations to the ferromagnetic insert along the passage between two extreme positions, corresponding to each successive section, the means for imparting reciprocations comprising at least two electromagnetic coils arranged at opposite ends of the passage, so that the coils ensure movement of the magnetizing system between the extreme positions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1, in which the magnetizing system comprises a solenoid disposed concentrically with the working passage, each end of the solenoid having a recess conforming in shape to a shape of a corresponding electromagnetic coil.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 2, wherein a bottom of the recess accommodates a resilient spacer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
73 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 2, further comprising: means for locking the magnetizing system in the extreme positions, each such locking means comprising an electromagnet secured at one end of the passage so that a core of the electromagnet moves perpendicularly to an axis of the passage, whereas a side surface of the solenoid has sockets equal in number to a number of the electromagnets and adapted to engage the corresponding core.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 2, wherein the solenoid has a non-uniform winding with a number of coil turns growing from a central portion of the solenoid to ends of the solenoid.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 5, wherein the number of coil turns at the ends exceeds the number of coil turns in the central portion by 20-40%.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
64 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1, further comprising means for cooling the magnetizing system having pipes for feeding and discharging a cooling agent, these pipes being arranged at opposite ends of the passage, so that axes of the pipes are parallel with an axis of the passage each pipe being provided with a flow governor and means for reversing feed of cooling agent.
