  • Filter press
    Patent number: 4512889
    Abstract: A filter press of the type having a multiplicity of filter plates adapted to be sequentially separated from one another, one or more at a time, to allow removal of cakes from filter cloths between each two adjacent plates. A pair of filter cloths covering the opposed surfaces of each two adjacent plates are supported by support means adapted to allow up and down movement of the cloths between the two plates when separated from each other. Drive means for moving the cloths upwardly comprise a filter-cloth suspension-bar driving mechanism adapted for ready engagement with and disengagement from a filter-cloth suspension bar to which are secured the upper ends of the cloths.
