A system and method for a vibrating paint strainer stand that enables the user to effectuate the flow of paint through a paint strainer by vibration whereby the paint strainer is positioned in a paint strainer holder on the stand such that one or more vibration motors attached on a neck opposite of the holder can provide vibration to the paint strainer.

The present invention is directed to a drilling fluid reclaimer. The reclaimer has at least one adjustable screen assembly for providing a leveling filter for reclaimed drill fluid. Used drill fluid is placed at the screen assembly at the front the of the screen assembly. The at least one screen is vibrated to separate large particulate matter from liquid drilling fluid. A second screen is provided for additional filtering. Large particulate matter is expelled by a chute at the back of the screen assembly. Drilling fluid passing through the screen is “reclaimed” for use with a drilling system.

An apparatus for production of French press style coffee via a process to immerse and steep coffee grounds in heated water in a non-oil-absorbing environment. Filtering a finished beverage from the steeped mixture through a microperforated non-oil-absorbing filter, where microperforations are sized to achieve sediments levels equivalent to or less than that of traditional French press, and filtration rate is enhanced via any combination of vibratory energy, air pressure, and air flow to the brewed mixture. The microperforated filter may be permanent and reusable, or may be disposable. The disposable filter is preferably made from flexible aluminum foil and recyclable. The apparatus and method support modification of filter size, microperforation size, perforation density, air pressure, air flow and vibratory action to vary beverage filtration rate and finished beverage composition.

An additive manufacturing device for reducing vibrational sounds produced during an evacuation process includes a shaker connected to a build area of the additive manufacturing device, the shaker to vibrate the build area during the evacuation process to separate fused and non-fused build material of a cake and an exciting transducer to transmit a reducing signal during the evacuation process such that the reducing signal reduces vibrational sounds produced by the shaker before the vibrational sounds reaches a user.

A frame assembly for a vibratory separator includes a screen and a pan positioned at least partially below the screen. The frame assembly also includes a ramp positioned at least partially below the screen and at least partially around the pan. The ramp defines an opening therethrough. The pan extends at least partially through the opening of the ramp. The ramp is tilted with respect to horizontal.

A filter for water treatment exhibiting high filtering capability by preventing vortices, and a filter apparatus including same is provided. The filter for water treatment, which is a cross flow type filter, includes a metal thin plate and a plurality of micropores passing through the metal thin plate so as to filter water flowing on one side of the metal thin plate. A micropore includes an inlet port which is formed on one surface of the metal thin plate and through which water flows in; a discharge port which is formed on the other surface positioned opposite from the one surface of the metal thin plate, and through which the water flowing in through the inlet port is discharged; and a curved portion convexly curved towards the inside of the micropore connects the inlet port and the discharge port. The curved portion and the other surface form a singular surface.

A system for separating components from a slurry of drilling fluid and drill cuttings on a shaker screen having an upper side and a lower side within a shaker. The system also has a pressure differential generator to pull an effective volume of air through a section of the shaker screen to enhance the flow of drilling fluid through the section of the shaker screen and the separation of drilling fluid from drill cuttings and further maintain an effective flow of drill cuttings off the shaker. A method of separating components of a slurry of drilling fluids and solids has the steps of delivering the slurry to a shaker, flowing the slurry over a first screen and applying an effective amount of vacuum to a first portion of the first screen to remove the drilling fluids from the slurry without stalling the solids on the first screen.
