ROTARY DRUM FOR USE IN A VACUUM FREEZE-DRYER
First Claim
1. A rotary drum for use within a vacuum chamber in a vacuum freeze-dryer for the bulkware production of freeze-dried particles, wherein the drum is adapted for unloading the freeze-dried particles after the drying process is finished, and whereinthe drum is in open communication with the vacuum chamber and comprises a main section terminated by a front plate and a rear plate;
- the rear plate is adapted for connection with a rotary supporting shaft for rotary support of the drum, andthe rear plate is permeable for sublimation vapor from freeze-drying the particles.
