Abstract
The invention relates to a machine for the treatment of animal hides and skins for the purpose of leather and fur manufacture and preservation. It is the object of the invention to create a machine which guarantees quality treatment of animal hides and skins in an economical way, for leather and fur manufacture and preservation. The invention has the object of developing a machine, which operates according to the continuous flow principle and which shortens the processing time of hides and skins. This is achieved in the invention in that the continuously-operating machine comprises segments, which each comprise a drum with delivery device, supply conduit, discharge conduit and heating device with temperature regulation device, in that each segment is directly connected to the separation station by means of conduits, in that each drum can be either perforated or unperforated, in that exhaust air conduits are arranged on the shell, and in that the separation station is provided with dye cleaning devices and a device for the restoration of the dye concentration.
