Abstract:
A hydrocyclone separator for classifying solid material in liquid suspension is disclosed. The hydrocyclone separator comprises a head part having an inlet conduit, a conically tapered separation part, an adjustable apex discharge port, and a tail pipe. According to the invention the adjustable apex discharge port comprises an abrasive-resistant resilient body in which an apex orifice port is arranged, and an adjustment sleeve configured to circumferentially enclose the resilient body, which sleeve has a tapered conical surface configured to abut an outer surface of the resilient body, and which sleeve is arranged for axial displacement to thereby vary the size of the apex orifice port.

Claim (Index 1):
A hydrocyclone separator for classifying solid material in liquid suspension, comprising a head part having an inlet conduit adapted to feed a suspension into the head part, and having an overflow discharge tube arranged axially into the head part, a conically tapered separation part, an adjustable apex discharge port, and a tail pipe, wherein the adjustable apex discharge port comprises\n an abrasive-resistant resilient body having a first section with a central tapered conical aperture forming a continuation of an inner wall of the conically tapered separation part, an apex orifice port, and a second section with a central aperture with a first end facing the apex orifice port and a second end facing and in communication with the tail pipe, and an adjustment sleeve configured to circumferentially enclose the resilient body in an axial extension comprising the apex orifice port, with a first sleeve end circumferentially enclosing the first section, and a second sleeve end circumferentially enclosing the second section, which sleeve has a tapered conical surface configured to abut an outer surface of the resilient body, and which sleeve is arranged for axial displacement to thereby vary the size of the apex orifice port, wherein the second sleeve end is arranged so that the second end of the second section at least is aligned with or extends beyond the second sleeve end and into the tail pipe.
