Definitions
- the present invention relates to an attachment device for attaching screen elements to a frame of a screening apparatus, comprising a frame attachment portion for attachment to the screen frame and a screen attach- ment portion for attachment of the screen elements.
- the present invention further relates to a screening apparatus comprising a screen frame, a plurality of screen elements, and at least one attachment device attaching said screen elements to said screen frame Background Art
- US-5,462, 175 which discloses an attachment strip having spreading pins that lock into holes in a screen frame and having bolts for securing screen elements on the screen frame.
- the attachment strip may be wedge-shaped in order to create a stair-step screen deck. Attachment strips of this type may be used for attaching screen elements from one manufacturer to a screen frame from another manufacturer.
- FIG. 06/031 176 Another example of a screen attachment device may be seen in WO 06/031 176.
- banana screens in which the screen frame beams are mounted with an angle between them which is less than 180°, thereby forming an arcuate or banana-shaped screen deck.
- An example of a “banana screen” may be found in, e.g., WO 02/1 1908.
- WO 02/1 1908 Around the angle transition point, where there is a change in inclination, the wear becomes particularly intense, thus necessitating more frequent replacement of screen elements.
- An object of the invention is to provide an attachment device for attachment of screen elements to the frame of a screening apparatus which is improved in comparison to prior art attachment devices.
- a particular object of the invention is to provide an attachment device which makes it possible to reduce localised wear in connection with inclination changes on a screen deck.
- An attachment device is characterised in that the frame attachment portion comprises a first frame attachment section and a second frame attachment section, each frame attachment section being arranged to be attached to a first frame section and a second frame section, respectively, said frame sections forming between them a frame angle of less than 180°, and in that said screen attachment portion is curved such that screen elements attached to said screen attachment portion form a screen surface on which said frame angle corresponds to two or more screen angles of less than 180° and larger than said frame angle or which has a circular arc shape.
- the screen attachment portion has a circular arc shape. This is a simple way of ensuring that the screen surface gets a circular arc shape.
- said screen attachment portion comprises at least a first screen attachment section, a second screen attachment section and a third screen attachment section, each screen attachment section being arranged to be attached to a respective screen element, wherein a first and a second of said screen elements form between them a first screen angle and the second and a third screen element form between them a second screen angle, said screen angles being less than 180° and larger than said frame angle.
- This is a convenient way of dividing the frame angle into two or more larger screen angles on the screen surface.
- the screen angles are equal. This makes it possible to make the attachment device mirror-symmetric. It is thereby easier to mount the attachment device on the frame, since it can be placed with either end on either side of the inclination change on the frame without affecting the inclinations of the screen elements that are later attached to the attachment device.
- the frame attachment sections may each comprise a plurality of locking devices for locking onto the frame, the locking devices of said first frame attachment section being arranged in a first plane and the locking devices of said second frame attachment section being arranged in a second plane, said first and second planes forming between them the frame angle.
- the attachment device may be particularly simple in construction.
- the locking devices may comprise spreading pins for locking into holes in said frame. Thereby, it is easy to attach the attachment device to the frame, the spreading pins being compressed while passing through the hole, and the attachment device is securely held in place when the spreading pins have spread again after passing through the hole in the frame.
- the first screen attachment section is arranged to be essentially parallel to said first frame section
- said third screen attachment section is arranged to be essentially parallel to said second frame section
- said second screen attachment section being arranged between said first and third screen attachment sections, said first and second screen attachment sections forming between them said first screen angle and said second and third screen attachment sections forming between them said second screen angle.
- the screen attachment sections may comprise a profiled strip adapted to engage an undercut groove on an underside of said screen elements.
- the screen elements may thereby easily, and securely be attached to the attachment device by simply pressing or hammering down the screen elements onto the profiled strip.
- a curved screen attachment portion may be of a shape which is, e.g. made up of straight portions forming an angle between them, i.e, with an angular bend, or arcuate, or more particularly a circle segment.
- Fig. 1 is a side view of an attachment device attached to the upper side of a frame of a screening apparatus.
- Fig. 2 is cross-sectional perspective view of the attachment device and screen frame of Fig. 1 .
- Fig. 3 is a partial perspective view of a screen element which may be attached to a frame of a screening apparatus by means of the attachment device of Figs 1 and 2.
- Fig. 4 is a side view of an attachment device according to an alternative embodiment attached to the upper side of a frame of a screening apparatus.
- Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the attachment device of Fig. 4.
- Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a screening deck incorporating the attachment device of Fig. 4. Detailed Description of Preferred Embodiments of the Invention
