Patent GB-190913440-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to Vacuum Filters.
Inventor: PAWLE REGINALD
Filed: 1909-06-08
Granted: 1910-06-08
Abstract: 13,440. Pawle, R. June 8 Bag filters; filters, cleansing. -A filter of the basket type for gold slimes &c. is so arranged that it can be efficiently operated when only thin cakes are formed thereon. After the formation of the cakes, the baskets are transferred to a wash tank, and the cakes are afterwards moistened and discharged by means of compressed air before the baskets are returned to the filtering - tank. As shown, a basket E is supported in the filtering-tank A by arms from a shaft D. When the cakes are formed, the shaft D is rotated from a reversible driving-shaft F bv means of worm gearing G, G<1>, and the basket is lifted round into the wash-tank B. The motion is assisted by means of a counterbalance bucket J, which is filled with water from a valve J' and emptied in its lower position through a valve J<2>. A shaft H' is connected to the basket by cables I, and cables from the bucket J are secured to spiral pulleys or drums of varying diameter on the shaft H<1> so that the counterbalance works with greater power in the position at which the moment of the basket about the shaft D is greatest. The filter is connected by a conduit E<1> and flexible pipes to valved pipes leading respectively to a gold-solution suction pipe, a weak gold-solution suction pipe, a compressed-air pipe, and a water-supply pipe. The valves of the solution pipes are opened when the filter is in the tanks A, B respectively. When the basket is vertically above the shaft D on the return journey, water is passed in to moisten the cake, and then the cake is removed by means of compressed air and falls into the pit c.
