Patent ID: 8657903

Claim:
A cyclone separator for separating liquid and/or solid particles from a gas stream, comprising: a first cyclone component with at least one substantially cylindrically embodied cell pipe that includes a guide device by means of which the gas stream is caused to rotate for separating the particles; a particle outlet for discharging the separated particles, and a second cyclone component arranged downstream in the flow direction of the gas stream and including at least one immersion pipe, wherein the immersion pipe is received in the cell pipe, is connected at its outflow-side end, viewed in the flow direction of the gas stream, at least partially with the outflow-side end of the cell pipe, viewed in the flow direction of the gas stream, and has a central outlet for discharging the purified gas stream; wherein in a connecting area of the outflow-side end of the cell pipe and of the outflow-side terminal area of the immersion pipe at least one sealing element is arranged that connects the cell pipe and the immersion pipe seal-tightly with each other, wherein the sealing element is substantially formed of at least one thermoplastic elastomer or rubber.
