ABSTRACT:
An oil separator device for use in an automotive crankcase ventilating system. The separator comprises a cannister shell which is made of two shell members and contains upper and lower partitions that define top, bottom and intermediate chambers. When oil laden gaseous fluid is introduced to the intermediate chamber it is directed by a vane member to flow in an orbital path around the intermediate chamber and create a vortex region in the central portion of the chamber. Gaseous liquid with oil removed flows out of the intermediate chamber into the upper chamber via a perforated chimney located in the vortex region. Oil drains from the intermediate chamber into the bottom of the lower chamber through an elongated aperture in the lower partition outside the vortex region.
