Abstract From the Canadian patent

A screening device for separating suspended solids from a liquid in a container comprises a hollow screen element with walls of a mesh structure. The screen element is submerged in the liquid, which passes from the container into the interior of the element and to an outlet. Agitators and impellers are provided on a shaft passing through the centre of the screen element. The impellers cause an increased flow of liquid past the screen element, while the agitators dislodge solids caking the mesh. The agitators are in the form of a frame which closely surrounds the screen element.
