D E LAVAL WHEY SEPARATORS I Three styles of drive N manner of drive, both belt and turbine, the new type De Laval Whey Sepa- rators have been completely re-designed and re-constructed to reduce to a minimum the amount of power required and to insure unvarying speed. The new turbine-driven machines are equipped with a new type of steam driv- ing wheel, similar in principle to that utilized in the famous De Laval Steam Turbine Engines, and which is still more economical in the consumption of steam. An important new feature of this machine is the im- proved type of steam gov- ernor, similar in principle to that used on high-class steam engines and which perfectly controls the steam pressure, thus insuring un- varying speed, as well as safety, in operation. The method of driving the new belt power ma- chines is radically different from that previously em- ployed in power separator operation, being now ac- complished through direct belt C(jnnection, bv a two- inch flat belt, with tight- and-loose pulleys which are a part of the separator it- self. The necessary multi- plication of bowl speed is obtained through the use of worm gearing of the most approved type encased within the frame of the machine. The use of the intermediate or jack, heretofore employed with a connecting rope belt, to the frame of the separator is thus done away with, and there is no longer anv likelihood of belt slippage or variation in bowl speed for this reason, the new worm gear drive being positive and unvarying. The New No. 22-W Whey Separator, which is adapted to the needs of cheese factories with a very small output, may be operated either by hand or belt power. In the latter case the power is applied bv means of the De Laval L^niversal Power Drive, a patented attachment which is designed to be used only on De Laval machines. The Universal Drive may be easily understood by reference to the illustration on page 15. The power is transmitted by belt
