Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, the above-mentioned filtering devices are operated manually, because the user starts the pump in order to operate the filtering device and must turn off the pump when the drum is full of oil or when the filtering operation is finished or must be stopped for any reason
Thus, the operator must attend to the filtering operation at least continuously or frequently

Embodiment Construction

[0020] For the purposes of promoting and understanding the principles disclosed herein, reference will now be made to the preferred embodiments illustrated in the drawings, and specific language will be used to describe the same. Nevertheless it is to be understood that no limitation of scope is thereby intended. Such alterations and further modifications in the apparatus shown and such further applications are the principles disclosed herein, as would normally occur to one skilled in the art to which this disclosure pertains, as indicated herein.

[0021] Referring to FIG. 1 , there is shown a separator 20 for separating oil and debris from an aqueous cleaning solution constructed in accordance with the teachings of the present disclosure. Separator 20 includes a vessel 22 which may have any desired shape. In this disclosure, container 22 is in the shape of a typical oil drum or drum, and will therefore be referred to herein as drum 22 . Separator 20 includes a cover 24 hav...

Abstract

A separator to separate oil and debris from an aqueous fluid includes a container with a cover, the top portion of which includes a control panel access door. The separator draws an aqueous fluid with one or a plurality of skimmers that float on the aqueous fluid inside one or a plurality of corresponding reservoirs. When the separator is operating, the surface portion of the aqueous fluid is drawn into each corresponding skimmer hose and transferred to the separator by a pickup hose. The separator separates oil, debris and any sludge that may be in the aqueous fluid to provide a substantially filtered aqueous fluid. The substantially filtered aqueous fluid is then returned to the reservoirs through an exit hose.

Description

technical field [0001] This application relates to fluid separation and filtration devices, and more particularly, to an apparatus for separating oil and debris from an aqueous cleaning solution. Background technique [0002] Aqueous cleaning solutions are typically used in machine shops, auto repair facilities, or other types of workshops or factories to clean and / or cool various equipment or parts. Aqueous cleaning solutions wash oil, residue, and various types of debris, such as metal shavings, from equipment or parts. The spent aqueous fluid is then stored in drums or drums for later disposal. [0003] Various filtration devices are used to remove oil, residue and / or debris from the aqueous cleaning solution so that the aqueous cleaning solution can be reused. These filtration devices typically use pumps to draw aqueous fluid from a reservoir of aqueous fluid through skimmers floating on the aqueous fluid; remove oil, residue, and / or debris at various filtration stages...
