Abstract:  
A continuous cleaning apparatus comprises a rotating barrel open at both ends and made in a skeletal form with longitudinal peripheral parts support slats for permitting treating media to pass through the slats and contact the parts. Spacing means move the parts in the barrel and maintain them spaced from each other. The spacing means are driven in a forward stroke and a return stroke by reciprocating means during each revolution of the barrel.
