Abstract
A process of manufacture of a lattice configurated elastomer screen for classification, screening and washed of fragmented hard stocks of material. The process of manufacture of this lattice screen employs a cutting device with at least one rotary cutting blade. for extracting mutually spaced slots in the top and bottom layers of an elastomer sheet; with the top slots lying essentially above the bottom slots; being disposed transversely of one another. The top and bottom slots are cut at a common, intersecting depth of one another in the elastomer sheet: joining the bottom slots with the top slots; forming preferably rectangular apertures between the top and bottom slots areas of this lattice designed sifting body.
Claims2
A sieve screen comprising:
- a flat, plate-like, flexible member having a certain thickness, mutually perpendicular slots formed in opposite surfaces of said member, the slots in each said surface being spaced parallel to the slots on the same surface, the slots in each said surface intersecting transversely with the slots on the opposite surface forming rectangular apertures of a certain size, each of said apertures having four corners and a corner thickness, said corner thickness being equal to said certain thickness, whereby said apertures resist clogging of particles nearly equal in size to said certain size.
