  • Patent number: 5405284
    Abstract: The drum (2) of a centrifugal jet machine is swivelable in an oscillating manner between two angular positions. The drum (2) has a curved base part (8) with plate-shaped parts (9, 10) which are fastened at both sides of the latter so as to be swivelable. These parts (9, 10) are guided in guide rails (15) by means of rollers (13). Depending on the swiveling movement of the drum (2), these parts (9, 10) are swiveled out so that, at a swivel angle of at least 180.degree., the casing opening (3) also changes in such a way that the centrifugal jets strike the goods to be cleaned also in the extreme outer angular positions.
