  • Patent number: 4937981
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a centrifugal-force vibratory grinding machine with stationary container having a filling opening and rotary plate rotating relative thereto for the revolving of the content of the container. In order to obtain high overall efficiency, it proposes, in particular, that the container (4) which extends horizontally with the filling opening (27) on its circumferential wall is closed at both ends and that at least one of the two closure walls forms the rotary plate (5, 6).

  • Patent number: 4620394
    Abstract: An apparatus for slide grinding has a slide-grinding container which is movable upwardly from a slide-grinding position thereof around a horizontal tilt axis into an emptying position thereof above a screen which is adapted to be placed in vibration and is arranged in an upper region of a collection container which is tiltable into an emptying position above the slide-grinding container. A collection chamber of the collection container below the screen has a first chute which terminates above the slide-grinding container in the emptying position of the collection chamber. The chute defines an emptying opening for returning abrasive bodies which have fallen through the screen into the slide-grinding container. The slide-grinding container and the collection container are individually tiltable and the screen is developed as a screen chute which vibrates relative to the collection container.

  • Patent number: 4498986
    Abstract: A vibratory container for flocculating waste water obtained upon vibratory abrasive finishing or the like, having an outlet and a feed connection which continues into a feed channel which extends into the inside of the container and is arranged in siphon-like manner with respect to the outlet pipe. For improved treatment of even chemically complex working liquids, the inside of the container is subdivided by partition walls into a plurality of chambers arranged one downstream of the other in the direction of flow. Connections are associated with the first two chambers arranged downstream of the feed channel within the initial region of the flow. The connections serve to introduce flocculation preparation chemicals, while a final connection is provided for the addition of the flocculating agent.

  • Patent number: 4428161
    Abstract: A vibrating abrasive container is formed with track-line which lies in a plane running at an acute angle to the horizontal and therefore at an acute angle to the vertical axis of the vibration generator, in such a manner that the uppermost and lowermost points face each other approximately diametrically, thereby causing a spirally circulating processing movement of the contents of the container to take place on the descending section of the container.

  • Patent number: 4295300
    Abstract: Discharge and separating devices of vibratory abrasive containers forming a trough and having a flap for placing into operation a separating path which is coordinated behind the flap, the flap being swingable around the flap shaft axis which is transverse to the container trough and being able to be moved upwardly by means of an actuating device into a maximum upper position. A control lever is operatively connected to the actuating device being pivotally mounted under a portion of flap parallel to the flap shaft, the control lever having a free end formed with a pin. The flap is formed with an elongated slot having an end region, the pin engaging into the slot in the flap and limiting the upward movement of the flap by abutting against the end region of the slot.

  • Patent number: 4195447
    Abstract: A channel formed vibration abrasive container with a channel surrounding, in a non-circular longitudinal course, a centrally disposed vibration generator, to which channel there is coordinated a selectively operative discharge- and separation- device. The channel course comprises two 180.degree. curved arcs disposed opposite each other at a distance, which arcs are arranged in symmetrical position relative to the vibration generator and are connected with each other by two parallel extending linear channel sections.

  • Patent number: 4118896
    Abstract: A vibratory apparatus for the surface treatment of parts with media in which the apparatus includes a generator for inducing supplementary vibrations superimposed upon the basic vibrations, in which the generator is in the form of a free oscillatory means of a bowl housed within a race for circular movement about an axis parallel with the axis of the means inducing the basic vibrations.
