A dust collector has a dirty air chamber arranged to receive a flow of dirty air containing suspended solid particulate material, a clean air chamber communicating with exhaust, and a plurality of filter bags arranged to have their interior surfaces communicate with the dirty air chamber and operative to separate solid particulate material from cleaned gas passing therethrough. The improvement includes an elongated venturi-like member arranged to service a number of such filter bags, and a conduit arranged to deliver high energy pulses of reverse air through the venturi-like member countercurrent to the normal flow of dirty gas therethrough. Such pulses of reverse air momentarily create a reduced pressure within the serviced filter bags, and induce cleaned gas to flow back through the serviced filter bags to dislodge and remove accumulated solid particulate material from the interior surfaces of such bags.

In a dust collector having a dirty air chamber arranged to receive a flow of dirty air containing suspended solid particulate material, a clean air chamber communicating with exhaust, and a plurality of filter bags arranged to have their interior surfaces communicate with said dirty air chamber and operative to separate solid particulate material from cleaned air passing therethrough, the improvement comprising: an elongated venturi-like member arranged to separate a number of said filter bags from said dirty air chamber, said member including an entrance nozzle section having a pair of entrance walls diverging in the direction of said dirty air chamber, an exit nozzle section having a pair of exit walls diverging in the direction of such filter bags, and an intermediate throat section having a pair of throat walls joining the convergent ends of said entrance and exit walls; a conduit arranged in said exit nozzle section and having a number of jet nozzles, each of said nozzles being arranged proximate the open mouth of a filter bag and operative to discharge a pulse of compressed gas through said throat section countercurrent to the normal flow of gas passing therethrough; and supply means operatively arranged to supply a pulse of compressed gas to said conduit to be discharged through said jet nozzles to momentarily create a reduced pressure within said filter bags; whereby, when said reduced pressure is created within said bags, cleaned gas is momentarily induced to flow back through said filter bags and said venturi-like member to dislodge and remove solid particulate material adhering to the interior surfaces of said filter bags.
