  • Patent number: 12370472
    Abstract: An assembly comprising a filter plate for filter press and at least one attachment part, wherein the filter plate has a filter chamber boundary surface, by means of which a filter chamber to be formed in the filter press can be bounded. At least one channel for a fluidic connection to the filter chamber boundary surface is formed in the filter plate, and the attachment part is detachably fastened to the filter plate at the channel by means of at least one detachable ball-type snap-in connection. The ball-type snap-in connection comprises at least one ball pin and at least one coupling. An assembly comprising such a filter plate for a filter press and at least one attachment part, in which the attachment part is detachably fastened to the filter plate by means of at least one ball-type snap-in connection and has an opening which is arranged in the channel.

  • Publication number: 20200368646
    Abstract: An arrangement of a filter plate for a filter press and of a sealing device. The filter plate has a contact surface for contact with another filler plate, which extends in parallel to a plane formed by the filter plate, and at least one channel opening for forming a channel. The channel opening passes through the filter plate perpendicularly to the plane. Furthermore, it is delimited by a channel surface of the filter plate. The filter plate has an annular recess with a first annular boundary surface. The sealing device has an elastic ring seal and a clamping ring, wherein the elastic ring seal has a second annular boundary surface which corresponds to the first annular boundary surface, and the clamping ring can be inserted into the annular recess such that the elastic ring seal is clamped between the clamping ring and the first annular boundary surface.

  • Patent number: 9975067
    Abstract: A membrane for a membrane filter plate, having an elastic compression face and a peripheral fastening means. The membrane displays an elastic compression face and a peripheral fastening means. An opening for a fluid communication into a filter chamber is configured in the membrane. The invention furthermore relates to an arrangement of at least two filter plates of which one filter plate is a membrane filter plate having a membrane. One membrane is fastened on the first filter plate by means of the peripheral fastening means such that a compression means chamber is formed between the membrane and the first filter plate. The second filter plate bears on the first filter plate such that a filter chamber is formed between the compression face of the membrane and the second filter plate. At the periphery of the filter plates, a duct is formed between the filter plates.

  • Patent number: 7326341
    Abstract: The invention relates to a membrane filter press. On operation of such a press a secure generation of the necessary pressing pressure can be guaranteed with a membrane filter press that has at least one membrane filter plate, a baseplate with thickened edge region, a membrane made from an elastically-deformable material, and a filter cloth. The novel membrane has an annular edge bead which lies in a complementary groove on the baseplate. A sealing groove is formed into the baseplate which opens out into the first-mentioned groove at both ends in the manner of a bypass. A complementary sealing projection, moulded on the annular bead, engages in the sealing groove with formation of a seal. The cavity enclosed between the groove and the sealing groove is preferably provided with at least one filtrate drain bore.
