Abstract
A self-locking mist eliminator is disclosed for connecting a plurality of longitudinally extending eliminator blades having front and back surfaces to a pair of end plates wherein the end plates have a pair of spaced-apart flanges projecting from one side thereof and each provided with a series of notched openings for receiving a portion of the blades. Each blade has a pair of spaced-apart openings in the blade surfaces at each end thereof. The notched openings in the end plates are enlarged in at least one direction lengthwise of the flange to provide a pin member for engagement in one of the spaced-apart openings in a blade surface and with the entrance corners into each of the notched openings chamfered whereby the blades can be pressed toward an adjacent end plate to have the end of the blade enter one of the notched openings until the pin member adjacent thereto engages the blade opening.
