  • Mobile washer with fluid reclamation system
    Patent number: 6578714
    Abstract: A fluid reclamation system is provided for separating large debris particles from a polluted fluid. The reclamation system includes a separation device with an endless screen installed onto driven cylinders. A basin is mounted within the screen for collecting the fluid after it passes through a top surface of the screen. A disposal mechanism discards large debris particles from the screen and discharges the large debris particles into a storage barrel.
    Type: Grant

  • Surface cleaner and retrieval unit
    Patent number: 6514354
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a cyclonic power system and method of using the system to clean flat surfaces. The cyclone power system includes a driven spindle that is mounted for rotation about its longitudinal axis. There are a plurality of radially extending straight rod extending from the spindle. Curved blades are connected at one end to the spindle and at their other end to the free end of a straight rod. The centrifugal force, generated as a result of the rotation of the driven spindle is not effective to cause the straight rods, which are constructed of stainless steel, to lengthen and since the curved blades are connected to the straight rods, the centrifugal force is not effective to lengthen the curved blades. In an embodiment of the invention a perforated disc is secured to the bottom surface of the spindle and to the free ends of the straight rods. In this embodiment the water and debris is pulled up through the perforations in the disc.
