Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for the cleaning of crankcase gas from an internal combustion engine includes a housing and a separation chamber for the crankcase gas with a centrifugal rotor arranged for the cleaning of the crankcase gas in the separation chamber. The centrifugal rotor includes a drive shaft extending into a drive chamber of the apparatus. A turbine is connected to the drive shaft. A nozzle is arranged to receive pressurized liquid from the combustion engine and to direct the pressurized liquid in a jet from a nozzle opening against the turbine for rotation of the centrifugal rotor. An adapter element is configured such that the apparatus is mountable onto the combustion engine with a drive liquid passage in communication with the nozzle. The nozzle is integrally formed with the adapter element with a nozzle passage having a conical shape which converges in the flow direction towards the nozzle opening.
