Abstract

In an apparatus for separating dust from gases, the gases are caused to flow in a rotating stream (3) within a substantially tubular and/or conical housing (1). A guiding body (9) extends in axial direction of the housing (1). Gas supply is effected via a supply slot (2) and the discharge opening (10) for pure gas is formed of a gap surrounding the guiding body (9), in particular by a tube (13) surrounding the guiding body (9) with formation of a gap. The dust discharge openings are designed as annular slots (7) located adjacent the inner wall (6) of the housing (1). A dust collecting bunker (5) is connected to the bottom of the housing.
