  • Patent number: 11395570
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a separator for vacuum cleaners operating on the basis of a liquid bath, the liquid bath serving as pre-separation and as a dumping area for the aspirated particles. It consists of segments (7), each of the segments (7) being formed as a radially flat ring (13) that is centrally secured to a hub (11) via radial supports (12) and having blades (8) extending equidistantly and substantially perpendicularly to the surface of the ring (13). The blades (8) are positioned on each individual segment (7) in a way that a gap (9) is formed between each two adjacent blades (8) of each segment (7). When individual segments (7) are stacked one over another, the blades (8) of one segment (7) extend into the gaps (9) between the blades (8) of the next segment (7), such that a newly formed gap (91) is formed between the two adjacent blades (8) of the assembled separator (1).

  • Patent number: 7203992
    Abstract: The separator has a bottom (12), a cylindrical body with turbine blades (15), and a sealing ring (11) at the upper end. The separator is made of segments or of an integral one piece. The segment of the separator (10) is manufactured as a turbine wheel, where the radial supports (17) have a periphery (16), on which periphery (16) are disposed uniformly and approximately radially turbine blades (15) having a slightly inclined outer part in the counter-rotation direction. The sealing ring (11) has radial supports (17) and a ring (19), and at the bottom of the lid (1a) it has airflow directing means (20) manufactured as extensions inclined from the periphery towards the radius.
