Pusher centrifuge
First Claim
1. In a pusher centrifuge having a perforated centrifuge drum, a pusher plate, an inlet pipe opening out coaxially with the centrifuge drum and a guiding wall for the centrifuging mixture to be fed onto the centrifuge drum, the said guiding wall extending from the inlet pipe to the inner surface of the layer of centrifuging mixture laying on the centrifuge drum, and between the pusher plate and the guiding wall there is a flow space, substantially free from components, for the centrifuging mixture;
- the improvement that the surfaces of the pusher plate and the guiding wall which bound said flow space face exclusively in directions other than toward the axis of the drum.

Abstract
Pusher centrifuge having a pusher plate and a guiding wall for the mixture to be fed onto the centrifuge drum, with a free flow space between the pusher plate and the guiding wall; the improvement that the surfaces of the pusher plate and guiding wall facing the mixture to be fed extend at least substantially perpendicular to the axis of the centrifuge drum or extend away from the axis of the drum in the radial area which extends from the outer surface of the inlet pipe to the inner surface of the layer of mixture lying on the drum.
