ABSTRACT:
Draining device and method for draining water from an interior surface of a felt belt loop circulating in a run direction via centrifugal force at a region of convex curvature of the interior surface of the felt belt. The draining device includes jets positioned across a width of the felt belt adapted to blast one of a displacing material and a displacing fluid against the felt belt at a position of one of in and in front of the convex region with respect to the run direction. The method includes directing jets of one of displacing fluid and displacing material against the interior surface of the felt belt to displace the water in the interior surface of the felt belt, and centrifugally spinning the displaced water out of the interior surface of the felt belt into a collecting device located within the felt belt loop.
