Abstract

A vacuum deaerator degasses material to be processed by placing a rotating rotor with a screen in a vacuum vessel, introducing a liquid material to be processed into the rotor from the interior thereof and causing the liquid to pass through the screen to refine the same. The vacuum deaerator is characterized in that: the screen is a cylinder with a circular cross-section and is in the form of a porous plate in which a plurality of through holes are opened in the radial direction of the cylindrical screen; and the screen is provided such that the area of inflow openings is greater than the area of outflow openings, where the inflow openings are openings of a plurality of penetration portions provided on the inner wall face of the screen and the outflow openings are openings of the plurality of penetration portions provided on the outer wall dace of the screen. Thus, the processing capacity of the vacuum deaerator is improved without increasing the size of the device.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A vacuum deaerator comprising:
a rotating rotor which is provided with a screen arranged in a vessel,
wherein the screen is a cylindrical plate having a plurality of through holes extending in a radial direction;
wherein openings of a plurality of penetrating parts formed in an inner wall surface of the screen are made to serve as inflow openings, and openings of a plurality of the penetrating parts formed in an outer wall surface of the screen are made to serve as outflow openings; and
wherein an opening area of the inflow opening is configured to be larger than an opening area of the outflow opening.

2. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 1 , wherein a minimum diameter of the opening of the penetrating part in the screen is in the range of 0.01 or more to 1.00 mm or less.

3. A vacuum deaerator equipped with a refining device, comprising:
a vessel;
a rotating rotor in the vessel,
a screen on the rotor for degassing a liquid,
wherein the screen is a wedge wire screen comprising a plurality of slits on a circumference of the screen and a screen member located between the adjacent slits, and the screen is a cylindrical shape,
openings of a plurality of the slits formed in an inner wall surface of the screen are made to serve as inflow openings, and openings of a plurality of the slits formed in an outer wall surface of the screen are made to serve as outflow openings, and a space between the inflow opening and the outflow opening is made to serve as a slit space; and
a width of the outflow opening in a circumferential direction and a width of the inflow opening in a circumferential direction are configured to be larger than a width of the slit space in a circumferential direction.

4. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 3 , wherein a minimum width of the opening part of a plurality of the slits in the screen is in the range of 0.01 mm or more to 1.00 mm or less.

5. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 1 , wherein a temperature adjusting mechanism is arranged on the vacuum vessel.

6. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 2 , wherein a temperature adjusting mechanism is arranged on the vacuum vessel.

7. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 3 , wherein a temperature adjusting mechanism is arranged on the vacuum vessel.

8. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 4 , wherein a temperature adjusting mechanism is arranged on the vacuum vessel.

9. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 3 , wherein the wedge wire screen comprises a plurality of parallel wires extending in the circumferential direction.

10. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 3 , wherein the wedge wire screen comprises a plurality of parallel wires extending in the vertical direction.

11. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 3 , wherein a cross sectional area of each of the openings continuously decreases from inflow opening to the outflow opening.

12. The vacuum deaerator according to claim 1 , wherein a cross sectional area of each of the openings continuously decreases from inflow opening to the outflow opening.
