Abstract
A mobile variable angle vibrating screen with the ability to process aggregate material in a horizontal orientation and at incrementally higher angles of inclination where changes in angles of inclination can be affected without the need to dismantle the vibrating screen and without the use of hand tools. The variable angle screen being configured: to blend output at all of the various operating angles of inclination, be transportable with a detachable bolt on feeder module; have an overhead feed conveyor which operates at a substantially horizontal configuration and at various operating angles of inclination.
Claims9
A mobile variable slope vibrating screen system for material processing comprising:
- a vibrating screen, configured to operate in a substantially horizontal orientation;
- a mobile chassis configured to support and transport said vibrating screen;
- an overhead feed conveyor configured to feed said vibrating screen, where the overhead feed conveyor is configured to operate over a range of angles of inclination from a substantially horizontal configuration and higher;
- wherein said vibrating screen comprises a plurality of single shaft access doors located to provide access to a single shaft for rotating an eccentric and a plurality of decks and the vibrating screen further comprising means for blending output from said plurality of decks at angles of inclination from 0 degrees and higher;
- and
- means for changing an angle of inclination of the vibrating screen so that said vibration screen can operate at angles from substantially 0 degrees to higher angles of inclination, with respect to said mobile chassis.
