Abstract: A spindle press (1) comprises a housing (3) with an upper part (2) and a lower part (5). A press spindle (16) is supported with an upper bearing (14) in a cover (11) of the upper part (2) and with a lower bearing (19) in the lower part (5) so as to be rotatable. The press spindle (16) comprises a hollow spindle body (27) with perforations (38) for pressed out fluid, compressor wings (56) and worm wings (57) being placed on the spindle body (27) externally. Interruptors (26), which are fastened at the housing (3), extend between these wings in a plurality of axial planes. The housing comprises a screen casing (22) permeable for the pressed out fluid and also a spray casing (21) at a distance outside of the latter. The pressed out fluid is guided away through a dewatering arrangement (30) of the lower part (5). The lower part (5) rests on a vertical frame (7) which encloses a telescoping drive pipe (52) and, further down, a drive arrangement (12) which drives the drive pipe (52) in a rotating manner.

Abstract: A screw press comprises a housing having a spray casing and a screen casing arranged within the spray casing and forming an annular space therebetween, at least one press spindle located within the screen casing and forming a pressing space therebetween, the at least one press spindle having a plurality of wing members and at least one axial zone free of the wing members, and at least one dewatering member which is supported by the housing and located in the at least one axial zone in the pressing space between the spindle body and the screen casing, the at least one dewatering member being hollow and provided with a plurality of perforations and also having an outlet which opens into the annular space between the screen casing and the spray casing, the at least one dewatering member being arranged at a radial distance from the spindle and the screen casing, and at least one carrier holding the at least one dewatering member.

Abstract: A spindle press comprises a housing with a circular cylindrical upper part and a lower part. A press spindle, which is drivable in a rotating manner via a drive pipe by a drive arrangement, is supported in an upper bearing and a lower bearing of the housing so as to be rotatable. A spindle body of the press spindle carries worm wings on the outside and compressor blades farther above, which all extend in the vicinity of a screen casing of the upper part. The screen casing is enclosed at a distance by a spray casing and provided with holes for pressed out fluid only from the compressor blades down. The spindle body also comprises perforations for the pressed out fluid only from the compressor blades down. Above the compressor blades a helically constructed front wall is welded in between an annular wall and the screen casing which is unperforated at that point. On the lower side of the front wall, wet pulp arrives tangentially through a filling opponent of the upper part.
