A screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine is provided including a plate having perforations with edges that are neither perpendicular nor parallel to wires of a wire mesh of the screen assembly.

Method and apparatus for screening

A screen assembly for separating solid materials of differing sizes in a material stream, having a support, and a screen arrangement placed upon the support, wherein the support has at least one seal placed on the support, the seal configured to interface with a mounting surface of a shaking apparatus.

Vibratory material screen with seal

A screening screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including an apertured plate, and a subassembly of an undulating support screen and fine screening screen and finer screening screen bonded to each other by a fused plastic grid and bonded to the apertured plate. A method of fabricating a screening screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including the steps of providing a support screen, superimposing a plastic grid onto the support screen, superimposing a finer screening screen onto the fine screening screen, applying heat and pressure to the superimposed screens to fuse the plastic grid and thereby form a flat bonded laminate subassembly by causing the fused plastic grid to permeate the fine screen and the finer screen and the support screen, forming the bonded laminate subassembly into an undulating shape, providing an apertured plate, and bonding the undulating bonded subassembly to the apertured plate. A screening screen assembly having ridges and troughs wherein the undersides of the troughs are secured to aligned plate members of the plate.

Method of screening material utilizing a plurality of undulating screen assemblies

Method of fabricating undulating screen for vibratory screening machine

A separator includes a continuous inclined screening belt that passes over an upper roller and a lower roller to screen debris from municipal wastewater. The debris is then conveyed to a debris discharge outlet. A puddle of debris-laden wastewater forms a hydrostatic pressure head on the upper surface of the screening belt to assist in forcing the wastewater through the screening belt. Wastewater that passes through apertures in the screening belt is deflected by a deflector plate that shields the return path of the screening belt. The screened wastewater is then directed to the wastewater outlet. In a preferred embodiment, a belt-cleaning brush is disposed along the return path and brushes clinging debris from the screening belt toward the debris discharge outlet. Additionally, the screening belt rides on and is supported by a perforated backing plate as it travels from the lower roller to the upper roller. Overflow ports are provided to allow wastewater from the puddle to bypass the screening belt if the screening belt becomes blinded. This prevents the wastewater from exiting the separator via the debris discharge port.

Municipal waste separator

A screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including a plurality of superimposed screens, channels on the edges of the screen assembly, and a plurality of hollow plastic channeling strips fused into the plurality of superimposed screens. The hollow channeling strips may have metal rods therein, and the plurality of superimposed screens may be bonded to an apertured plate. A method of fabricating a screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including the steps of laying a plurality of plastic tubes into grooves of a fixture, superimposing the plurality of screens over the plastic tubes, and applying a heated platen to the screens to thereby cause the plastic tubes to fuse into the screens. The hollow plastic tubes may have metal rods therein, and the plurality of screens may be bonded to an apertured plate before the hollow plastic tubes are bonded to the screens.

Screen assembly for vibratory screening machine

A screening screen having openings in the warp direction which are longer than these openings in the woof direction including warp wires and woof wires of the same maximum size extending at substantially maximum warp and woof crimp angles relative to each other which will not permit the warp wires and the woof wires to slide relative to each other. A method of fabricating a screening screen of the above type including the steps of determining the size of the openings in the woof direction and determining the maximum wire size of the warp and woof wires which will produce a maximum woof crimp angle which will not permit the woof wires to slide relative to the warp wires in the woof direction, and determining the length of the openings in the warp direction which will produce a substantially maximum warp crimp angle which will not permit the warp wires to slide relative to the woof wires in the warp direction.

Vibratory screening screen and method of fabrication thereof

Screen assembly for vibratory screening machine and method of

A screening screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including an apertured plate having side edge portions with first apertured bands extending between the side edge portions and second unapertured bands alternating with the first bands, the second bands having a wider width than the borders between the apertures in the first band, and an undulating screening screen having ridges and troughs between the ridges extending crosswise to the first and second plate bands and being secured thereto.

Undulating screen for vibratory screening machine and method of

A screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including a frame in the nature of a plate having spaced apertures therein, spaced frame members on opposite sides of the apertures, a screen formed in an undulating shape having substantially parallel ridges with downwardly sloping sides, troughs formed between the downwardly sloping sides for conducting material which is being screened, undersides on the troughs, bonds for securing the undersides of the troughs to the spaced frame members which are located on opposite sides of the apertures, and channels at the sides of the plate for securing the frame to a vibratory screening machine.

Screen assembly for vibrating screening machine

A gumbo separator has a continuous, inclined, moving screen belt which rides on and is supported by a perforated backing plate. The desirable portion of drilling fluids fed to the gumbo separator passes through the screen belt and backing plate and may be further processed to remove drill cuttings. The gumbo, containing gummy hydrated clays, are conveyed off the screen belt to the reserve pit. The gumbo separator provides a self cleaning screen belt, using a counter-rotating belt cleaning brush. A spray bar back-washes the screen belt with high pressure drilling mud to remove any gumbo lodged in the screen belt openings.

Gumbo separator

A screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including a plate having openings therein, a plurality of screens firmly bonded to the plate, channels on the edges of the plate, and a plurality of hollow plastic channeling strips fused into the plurality of screens. A method of fabricating a screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including the steps of firmly bonding a plurality of screens to a plate having openings therein, laying a plurality of plastic tubes into grooves of a fixture, superimposing the plurality of screens bonded to the plate over the plastic tubes, and applying a heated platen to the plate and the screens bonded thereto to thereby cause the plastic tubes to fuse into the screens.

A screening screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including an apertured plate or frame, and a bonded subassembly of an undulating support screen and fine screening screen and finer screening screen bonded to each other by a fused plastic grid and bonded to the apertured plate or frame. A method of fabricating a screening screen assembly for a vibratory screening machine including the steps of providing a support screen, superimposing a plastic grid onto the support screen, superimposing a finer screening screen onto the fine screening screen, applying heat and pressure to the superimposed screens to fuse the plastic grid and thereby form a flat bonded laminate subassembly by causing the fused plastic grid to permeate the fine screen and the finer screen and the support screen, forming the bonded laminate subassembly into an undulating shape, providing an apertured plate or frame, and bonding the undulating bonded subassembly to the apertured plate or frame.
