Rake systems for cleaning water streams and new and novel components for such rake systems.

A method may include providing a rake system with a framework, a chain having a plurality of skimmers, an elongated rail, a first support arm, a second support arm, a first guide device, a second guide device, and/or a screen, rotating the chain, receiving debris between the chain and the screen, and/or moving the debris along the screen, via a skimmer of the plurality of skimmers, to discard the debris.

A processing device for grey water for a rail vehicle includes a grey water container, a grey water supply in an inlet region, a drain for processed grey water in an outlet region, and a slotted filter between the inlet and outlet regions that has at least one movable sliding member which touches the base of the grey water container in a lowered position and is lifted off the base in a raised position. The base of the grey water container rises from the inlet region to the outlet region. A cleaning outflow is disposed in the inlet region on the base side. A fresh water supply for supplying fresh water is disposed in the outlet region. A rail vehicle having at least one processing device for grey water for a toilet module or toilet bowl is also provided.

An apparatus for removing debris from water in a channel includes a bar screen assembly having a plurality of spaced apart, elongated filter bars arranged in a parallel relationship. A continuous conveyor carries a plurality of rakes. Each rake includes a plurality of spaced-apart tines interdigitated with the filter bars as the rake is moved along the filter bars by the conveyor to remove debris from the bar screen assembly. A conveyor belt retaining system includes at least one guide engaging an upstream side of an inner run of the conveyor and a counterweight connected to the at least one guide for biasing the inner run in a downstream direction.

The present development is a septic tank or wastewater treatment tank outlet filter cleaning device. More specifically, the device is an outlet filter cleaner for a slotted filter used to reduce solid waste transfer into a septic tank effluent. The device comprises a central shaft with at least one cleaning disc, wherein the cleaning disc comprises a body which is mounted on the shaft and wherein a plurality of fingers protrude from the body, preferably in locations substantially identical to the positions of the openings in the wall of the tube.

A method may include providing a rake system with a framework, a chain having a plurality of skimmers, an elongated rail, a first support arm, a second support arm, a first guide device, a second guide device, and/or a screen, rotating the chain, receiving debris between the chain and the screen, and/or moving the debris along the screen, via a skimmer of the plurality of skimmers, to discard the debris.

The present invention relates to a demount-free electrical cleanable filter, which includes a housing and a main filter cylinder in the housing. the housing is provided with a cleaning hoop and a reciprocating driving device. The cleaning hoop is sleeved on cylinder filtering material of the main filter cylinder. The reciprocating driving device drives the cleaning hoop to move up and down repeatedly, so as to conduct a clean-up operation on the main filter cylinder. The beneficial effect of the present invention is as follows. The present invention can be used in vehicle using fuel, engine and industry, environmental filtering, according to the flow rate and different designs of material. By a novel structure design, the lifetime of the present filter is greatly improved. During the entire life cycle of the filter, an apparatus which uses the present filter does not need to replace the fuel filter.

An auto-cleaning marination filter for a poultry injector system including an outer housing having a liquid inlet and outlet, a screen that allows passage of liquids and impedes passage of solid particles, and a wiper surrounded by said screen for removing solid particles attached to the screen by reverse flow of the liquid through a gap in the wiper.

The present invention relates to a rotary screening apparatus, and more particularly, a rotary screening apparatus which is installed in an open channel such as drain pump station, water supply intake station, irrigation channel, sewage treatment plant and dam etc. to allow smooth removal of inclusion.

The invention relates to a method for adjusting the tension of endless and spaced-apart drive elements (1) of a screening device (2), which is used for separating out and removing debris from wastewater (3), wherein the drive elements (1) are moved on a circulating path with the aid of a drive motor (4) of the screening device (2) during the operation of the screening device (2), characterized in that the energy consumption of the drive motor (4) is monitored during the operation thereof, and that the tension is increased as necessary until the energy consumption increases in a previously defined way. Moreover, a screening device (2) for separating out and removing debris from wastewater (3) is provided.
