Method for removing linear objects, device for removing linear objects, and method for processing electronic/electrical equipment component waste

A method for processing electronic/electrical equipment component waste comprising:

• arranging a plurality of filters in a vibrating sieve machine such that the filters are adjacent to each other so as to partially overlap with each other in a feed direction of a raw material, each of the filters comprising a plurality of rods extending at distances in the feed direction of the raw material and a beam portion supporting the plurality of rods at one ends of the plurality of the rods, the other ends of the plurality of the rods being free ends;
• arranging a guide below a tip of one of the filters located on a most downstream side in the feed direction;
• feeding the raw material containing at least substrate scraps and wire scraps into the vibrating sieve machine;
• and
• sorting the substrate scraps and the wire scraps by vibrating the filters, sieving the wire scraps to an under-sieve side of the vibrating sieve machine, and capturing lumpy wire scraps with the guide.

A device for removing linear objects comprising:

• a vibrating sieve machine;
• a plurality of filters in a vibrating sieve machine such that the filters are adjacent to each other so as to partially overlap with each other in a feed direction of a raw material, each of the filters comprising a plurality of rods extending at distances in the feed direction of the raw material and a beam portion supporting the plurality of rods at one ends of the plurality of the rods, the other ends of the plurality of the rods being free ends;
• a vibrator configured to vibrate the filters to sieve the linear objects contained in a raw material to an under-sieve side, the raw material containing at least the linear objects and plate-form objects;
• and
• a guide provided at a discharge port of the vibrating sieve machine and configured to sort lumpy linear objects and the plate-form objects by holding the lumpy linear objects thereon.
