ABSTRACT:
A cyclone separator having a central fluid conduit. An interceptor ring is externally attached to the end of the fluid conduit and has a surface which intercepts fluid flowing longitudinally along the outer surface of the fluid conduit and directs the fluid outwardly toward the interior wall of the container. Circumferential and longitudinal slots are located in the container in proximity to the interceptor ring to enhance the outward direction flow of fluid from the ring. A diffuser collar having a central opening therein is connected to the interceptor ring in a manner leaving an annular space or circumferential slots between the ring and the collar through which space unwanted materials.
In an alternate version the diffuser collar is larger in diameter than the fluid conduit and the conduit extends into the diffuser collar forming a space therebetween by which an outer layer of fluid is skimmed from the spiraling column of fluid entering the fluid conduit to further cleanse the fluid of unwanted substances. Curved vanes connect the diffuser collar to the fluid conduit. The open end of the diffuser collar may also have an interceptor ring and the container may have a circumferential slot in proximity to the interceptor ring to enhance the direction of fluids outwardly from the interceptor ring.
In still another version, a second container may be symmetrically located interior to the first container to surround the one end of the fluid conduit. One end of the second container is connected to the fluid deflector apparatus and the other end is open.
