A module is provided for screening or diverting particulate material. A method for producing a module for screening or diverting particulate material is also provided. Each module comprises either a screening member having an array of sieve apertures of a predetermined size defined therein for allowing particulate material up to the predetermined size to pass through the module or a diverting member or redirecting the flow path of the particulate material. A plurality of posts removably and interlockingly supports at least one reinforcing support frame and at least one module. Each reinforcing support frame is interlockably mounted onto the posts, and is readily detachable therefrom. Each module is disposed on the interlocking posts and is mounted onto, and readily detachable from, the reinforcing support frame. Each module is further positioned on the frame such that any particulate material passing through the module passes through the frame.
A module for screening or diverting particulate material comprising either one of a screening member having an array of sieve apertures of a predetermined size defined therein for allowing particulate material up to the predetermined size to pass through the module or a diverting member for redirecting the flow path of the said particulate material, the screening or diverting member including a frame engagement member for interlockingly mounting the screening or diverting member onto a reinforcing support frame such that the screening or diverting member is readily attachable to and detachable therefrom, and such that particulate material passing through the screening member passes through the reinforcing support frame, the frame engagement member comprising a detent extending from a lower surface of the screening or diverting member for readily and interlockingly mounting the screening or diverting member onto said frame, the screening or diverting member being further interlockingly mountable onto a plurality of posts such that the screening or diverting member is readily detachable therefrom.
A method for producing a module for screening or diverting particulate material, comprising:
A module for screening or diverting particulate material comprising either one of a screening member having an array of sieve apertures of a predetermined size defined therein for allowing particulate material up to the predetermined size to pass through the module or a diverting member for redirecting the flow path of the said particulate material, the screening or diverting member including a frame engagement member for interlockingly mounting the screening or diverting member onto a reinforcing support frame such that the screening or diverting member is readily attachable to and detachable therefrom, and such that particulate material passing through the screening member passes through the reinforcing support frame, the screening or diverting member being further interlockingly mountable onto a plurality of posts such that the screening or diverting member is readily detachable therefrom, wherein each of the posts includes at least one of a slot into which at least one post engagement member located on a corner of each said module is interlockingly engaged, and wherein each of the posts further comprises at least one frame slot within which a corner of each said frame is readily and interlocking mounted.
A module for screening or diverting particulate material comprising either one of a screening member having an array of sieve apertures of a predetermined size defined therein for allowing particulate material up to the predetermined size to pass through the module or a diverting member for redirecting the flow path of the said particulate material, the screening or diverting member including a frame engagement member for interlockingly mounting the screening or diverting member onto a reinforcing support frame such that the screening or diverting member is readily attachable to and detachable therefrom, and such that particulate material passing through the screening member passes through the reinforcing support frame, the screening or diverting member being further interlockingly mountable onto a plurality of posts such that the screening or diverting member is readily detachable therefrom, wherein said frame slot is arcuate-shaped.
A module for screening or diverting particulate material comprising either one of a screening member having an array of sieve apertures of a predetermined size defined therein for allowing particulate material up to the predetermined size to pass through the module or a diverting member for redirecting the flow path of the said particulate material, the screening or diverting member including a frame engagement member for interlockingly mounting the screening or diverting member onto a reinforcing support frame such that the screening or diverting member is readily attachable to and detachable therefrom, and such that particulate material passing through the screening member passes through the reinforcing support frame, the screening or diverting member being further interlockingly mountable onto a plurality of posts such that the screening or diverting member is readily detachable therefrom, wherein at least one said frame having a substantially rectangular-shaped perimeter including at least one arcuate-shaped corner.
A module for screening or diverting particulate material comprising either one of a screening member having an array of sieve apertures of a predetermined size defined therein for allowing particulate material up to the predetermined size to pass through the module or a diverting member for redirecting the flow path of the said particulate material, the screening or diverting member including a frame engagement member for interlockingly mounting the screening or diverting member onto a reinforcing support frame such that the screening or diverting member is readily attachable to and detachable therefrom, and such that particulate material passing through the screening member passes through the reinforcing support frame, said frame engagement member extending from a lower surface thereof for readily and interlockably mounting said module onto at least one said frame.
A module for screening or diverting particulate material comprising either one of a screening member having an array of sieve apertures of a predetermined size defined therein for allowing particulate material up to the predetermined size to pass through the module or a diverting member for redirecting the flow path of the said particulate material, the screening or diverting member including a frame engagement member for interlockingly mounting the screening or diverting member onto a reinforcing support frame such that the screening or diverting member is readily attachable to and detachable therefrom, and such that particulate material passing through the screening member passes through the reinforcing support frame, the screening or diverting member being further interlockingly mountable onto a plurality of posts such that the screening or diverting member is readily detachable therefrom, wherein each of the posts includes at least one recess into which at least one post engagement member located on a corner of each said module is interlockingly engaged, and wherein each of the posts further comprises at least one frame slot within which a corner of each said frame is readily and interlocking mounted.
