Abstract
A support is mounted above a filter press for movement along the longitudinal axis of the press. A trolley is mounted on the support for reciprocal movement transversely to the axis of the press, from one side to another. A standpipe is mounted on the trolley to swing between a horizontal position and a vertical position. A single drive system is provided, interconnecting the trolley and the standpipe, which sequentially swings the standpipe from the horizontal to the vertical position, moves the trolley from one side to the other of the filter press, and thereafter reverses the movement of the trolley and the swinging of the standpipe.
