  • Patent number: 4519812
    Abstract: A cryogen shot blast deflashing apparatus includes an upstanding frame which movably supports a receptacle assembly. The receptacle assembly includes an enclosure having a housing that enshrouds a rotatable drum, and a door which is pivotally mounted on the housing for movement between positions wherein the door selectively opens and closes an open outer end of the drum. A throwing wheel is carried on the door for discharging particulate media and cryogen gas into the drum for impacting workpieces embrittling workpiece flash. A recirculation system is provided for withdrawing cryogen gas and particulates from the drum during operation of the machine, for separating reusable particulate media from particles of waste material such as workpiece flash, and for returning a controlled flow of pressurized cryogen gas and particulate media to the throwing wheel.
