A system for measuring volume flow of a material includes: an imaging receiver for receiving images of a screen deck of a vibratory shaker from an overhead position; at least one illumination device for projecting a line of light onto the screen deck from an angle different than a viewing angle of the imaging receiver to the screen deck; and a mounting bracket for holding the imaging receiver and the at least one illumination device in a substantially fixed relative position to one another and to the screen deck. The system is determines the volume flow of the material based on the images of the screen deck.

A minerals processing unit, such as a vibrating screen (10), is described. The vibrating screen (10) comprises a sensing mechanism operable to detect: (i) motion of the vibrating screen (10) in multiple directions, and (ii) detect planar deviations of a mesh surface (22). The sensing mechanism may comprise a plurality of discrete sensors (60-66), including a gyroscopic sensor (60) operable to detect linear movement in three mutually orthogonal directions, and one or more of roll, pitch, and yaw. The sensing mechanism may further comprise a temperature sensor (64a, 64b) for measuring the temperature of a drive mechanism (42) and an ambient temperature sensor (66a, 66b) for measuring a control value to compare with the drive mechanism temperature.

A base supports an inclined screen having a uniform mesh selected to remove larger aggregate from a first cement mixture to form a second cement mixture that passes through the screen. A powered vibrator vibrates the screen to separate the concrete mixtures and larger aggregate. Springs and/or dampers in support legs isolate the vibrating screen from the base. A guide frame on the top surface of the screen guides the first concrete mixture along the screen and guide the separated aggregate out a bottom opening into an aggregate container. A support frame on the bottom surface of the screen stiffens the screen to help support the weight of the concrete. A concrete container, preferably wheeled, is below the screen to collect the second concrete mixture and move it to its use location.

A device and method for separating solid material with thorough gentle precision processing in order to maintain the integrity of the desired portion of the solid material, employs a separating apparatus including two or more vertically spaced barrels, each of which rotates within a respective saddle. After solid material is introduced into one of the barrels, the barrel is rotated, and the solid material is rotationally tumbled and axially propagated through the barrel. As the solid material moves through the barrel, portions of the solid material are separated therefrom by various means including collision, vibration, grating or cutting.

The disclosure relates to an ultrasonic detection system in an arrangement for handling screening material, e.g. aggregate, ore or similar. The ultrasonic detection system includes an ultrasonic transmitter arranged at a surface of the arrangement, and adapted to send out an ultrasonic signal towards the surface, an ultrasonic receiver arranged at the surface, and adapted to receive the ultrasonic signal, and a control unit connected to the at least one ultrasonic transmitter and the at least one ultrasonic receiver. The disclosure also relates to a method for monitoring operation of an arrangement for handling screening material.

The present disclosure relates to the field of perfumery. In particular, the present disclosure provides fragrance dispensing emanating substrate and related methods for dispensing fragrance oil or liquid fragrance material into an ambient environment.

A disc screen for separating solid residues which comprises multiple parallel rotation shafts, each of which carrying, fixed thereto, a plurality of discs. The lateral faces of the aforesaid discs are provided with thrust wings having curved section, which are adapted to intercept components of the material to be screened, in particular light or filamentous materials, in order to expel them outside the interspaces between the discs, so as to prevent possible tangling and obstruction of such materials at the rotation shafts.
