Abstract
A magnetic belt conveyor type magnetic particle separator comprises a storage tank for storing cutting oil containing magnetic particles, an endless belt conveyor extending sidewise from the storage tank in an upwardly inclined direction, and a magnet disposed beneath the forward run of the belt conveyor to extend in the direction of running thereof. Magnetic particles contained in the cutting oil are attracted by the forces of the magnet to the upper surface of the forward run of the belt conveyor to be conveyed up to the forward run end thereof and separated therefrom at the forward run end for being discharged. The magnetic belt conveyor type magnetic particle separator further comprises scrapers mounted on the inner surface of the belt conveyor in a uniformly spaced-apart relation in the direction of running of the belt conveyor and moved in unison therewith over the upper surface of the magnet such as to scrape magnetic particles off the upper surface of the magnet, and projections projecting from the outer surface of the belt conveyor such as to catch masses of magnetic particles rolling over the outer surface of the belt conveyor.
