Abstract

A screening system for screening material, in particular for screening mineral rock, the system having a screen box, with two outer side walls. At least two vibration systems are arranged on each of the two side walls to excite vibration. The two side walls each have at least two vibration nodes in accordance with a bending mode, at least two crossmembers, which connect the two side walls to one another, at least one screen deck, which is supported on the at least two crossmembers. The two vibration systems on each of the side walls are arranged such that each vibration system is arranged in the region of a vibration node of the respective side wall. The disclosure also relates to a method for screening material to be screened, in particular for screening mineral rock, via a screening system of the aforementioned type.

Claims (25)

1 .- 16 . (canceled)

17 . A screening system for screening material, the system comprising:

a screen box comprising two side walls;

at least two vibration systems arranged on each of the two side walls and configured to excite vibration, wherein the two side walls each have at least two vibration nodes in accordance with a bending mode;

crossmembers connecting the two side walls;

at least one screen deck disposed on the crossmembers;

wherein each of the vibration systems on each of the side walls are respectively disposed in a region of one of the at least two vibration nodes of a respective side wall.

18 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein each region of each vibration node has a maximum radius from the central point of the vibration node of less than or equal to 20% of the maximum length of the main extent of the respective side wall.

19 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein at least one of the vibration systems directly overlaps with a respective vibration node.

20 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein at least one of the vibration systems is arranged in such a way in the region of the vibration node of a respective side wall that the magnitude of the region corresponds to a maximum radius from the central point of the vibration node, the magnitude of which is less than or equal to 20%, or less than or equal to 10% of the maximum length of the main extent of the respective side wall ( 31 or 32 ), wherein the magnitude of the region of the maximum radius from the central point of the vibration node is anti-proportional to the maximum length of the main extent of the respective side wall ( 31 or 32 ).

21 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein the screen box has at least two screen decks arranged vertically one above the other and the screen decks are arranged parallel to one another.

22 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein the screen box has no more than six screen decks arranged vertically one above the other and the screen decks are arranged parallel to one another.

23 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein the side walls are arranged parallel to one another or converge.

24 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein the two side walls are arranged in mirror symmetry with respect to a vertical mirror plane extending along a conveying direction.

25 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein each vibration system consists of two, three, four or more unbalance drives.

26 . The screening system of claim 25 wherein each unbalance drive has a sensor unit for determining a real-time angular position of an unbalance mass portion of each unbalance drive.

27 . The screening system of claim 25 further comprising a control system which is connected to the unbalance drives in order to adjust phase offsets of the unbalance drives.

28 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein the two vibration systems on each of the side walls are arranged such that each vibration system is arranged in the region of a v-bration node of the first bending mode of the respective side wall.

29 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein all the crossmembers are of identical design.

30 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein all the crossmembers have a hollow profile.

31 . The screening system of claim 17 wherein all the crossmembers are tubes.

32 . A method for screening material to be screened, in particular for screening mineral rock, by means of a screening system comprising a screen box comprising two side walls, at least two vibration systems arranged on each of the two side walls and configured to excite vibration, wherein the two side walls each have at least two vibration nodes in accordance with a bending mode, crossmembers connecting the two side walls, at least one screen deck disposed on the crossmembers, wherein each of the vibration systems on each of the side walls are respectively disposed in a region of one of the at least two vibration nodes of a respective side wall, wherein the method comprises:

starting the vibration systems;

defining a vibration angle for material to be screened by means of a control system of the screening system, for which purpose a phase offset of each vibration system is adjusted electronically; and

adapting, when required, the vibration angle for material to be screened by means of the control system, for which purpose the phase offset of each vibration system is adapted electronically.
