Abstract:
Screening members, screening assemblies, methods for fabricating screening members and assemblies and methods for screening materials are provided for vibratory screening machines that incorporate the use of injection molded materials. Use of injection molded screen elements provide, inter alia, for: varying screening surface configurations; fast and relatively simple screen assembly fabrication; and a combination of outstanding screen assembly mechanical and electrical properties, including toughness, wear and chemical resistance. Embodiments of the present invention use a thermoplastic injection molded material.

Claim (Index 12):
A screen assembly, comprising:\n a screen element including a thermoplastic screen element screening surface having elongated slots, each one of a group of the elongated slots having a length and a substantially uniform width extending the length, the substantially uniform width having a magnitude in a range from approximately 43 microns to approximately 180 microns; and a subgrid including multiple elongated structural members forming a grid framework having grid openings, wherein the screen element spans at least one grid opening of the grid openings and is secured to a top surface of the subgrid, wherein multiple subgrids are permanently secured to each other to form the screen assembly, and wherein the screen assembly has a continuous screen assembly screening surface comprised of multiple thermoplastic screen element screening surfaces.
