A deflector for a mobile material separating machine includes a deflector body hingedly attached to a trommel screen frame and a conveyor movable with respect to the trommel screen frame. The conveyor has a stowed position and an operating position. The deflector system also includes an automatic linkage pivotably attached to the deflector body and to the conveyor. The linkage moves and guides the deflector body when the conveyor moves between the stowed position and the operating position.

A piler conveyor system for screening debris such as tare dirt from materials such as beets as the materials are conveyed across a piler. The piler conveyor system generally includes a frame supporting an upper conveyor and a pair of lower conveyors. The upper conveyor is adapted to receive materials such as beets. As the materials are conveyed by the upper conveyor, debris such as tare dirt or the like will fall through screening openings in the upper conveyor and onto the lower conveyor. The lower conveyor may then dispense the debris through a debris opening. The materials will drop off the end of the upper conveyor and fall onto the second lower conveyor, which will convey the screened materials to be dispensed.

The disclosure provides a process for obtaining the purest form of Himalayan pink salt. The purest form of Himalayan pink salt is preferably in crystal in form and is substantially clear and colorless. The disclosure provides a purification process that identifies and removes solid impurities affording the purest form of Himalayan pink salt. The system may machine vision algorithms that process feedback from one or more sensors to detect and identify color or clarity, and may use one or more host controllers to remove solid impurities. The controller may identify the color or clarity and ensure consistent removal of the solid impurities.

A mobile machine for conveying and/or processing mineral aggregate material, includes a machine frame and a conveyor module supported on the machine frame so as to be displaceable relative to the latter. A conveyor line runs along a virtual conveyor path (FB), the conveyor module being designed at least for conveying the aggregate material along the conveyor path on the conveyor line. A component carrier in a working state of the machine runs in an elevation direction (H) at a distance from the conveyor line crosswise with respect to the conveyor path above the conveyor line. The component carrier supports at least one functional module which interacts with the aggregate material conveyed on the conveyor line. The conveyor module is displaceable relative to the machine frame with a displacement component in the elevation direction. The component carrier is movable both relative to the conveyor module and the machine frame.

An example nonlimiting embodiment of the present invention provides a flow divider that includes a slurry receiving compartment and a discharge arrangement having a plurality of discharge apertures. The slurry receiving compartment is arranged to relatively uniformly flow a portion of a slurry into each of the discharge apertures. The discharge apertures may be arranged linearly and/or horizontally such that the portions of the slurry exits each of the discharge apertures at a relatively even flow rate and feed feed boxes connected to vertically tiered screening surfaces of a screening machine.

An object-sorting apparatus includes a housing that extends from a top end to a bottom end, at least one vibration element, and a plurality of stages arranged in a vertical sequence in the housing between the top end and the bottom end. At least one of the stages includes a sorting base that at least partially defines a floor of the at least one stage. The sorting base is coupled to the at least one vibration element, and is configured to receive thereon a mixture of objects having different sizes, including a target size associated with the at least one stage. The stage also includes apertures defined in and extending through the sorting base and into flow communication with a next lower stage. The apertures are sized to receive therethrough, from the mixture, objects having a size smaller than the target size associated with the at least one stage.

A cleaning device for a sieve box is provided. The cleaning device can include outer members configured together to form a perimeter, a central region located within the perimeter and interior members connecting the perimeter and the central region. The cleaning device can include nubs provided on the bottom surface of the outer members and the interior members. The nubs can be spaced apart across the lengths of the outer and interior members and can include terminal ends. The terminal ends of the nubs can have rounded, flattened or pointed shapes based on the intended aggressiveness of the cleaning device. The cleaning device can be adapted for placement on a sieve screen of the sieve box and move across the sieve screen to remove milling product stuck to the sieve screen, break apart clumped milling product, and/or push excess milling product toward a discharge zone of the sieve box.

An apparatus includes a vibratory separator with a top deck, a middle deck, and a bottom deck, and a collection trough coupled to at least one of the top deck, the middle deck, and the bottom deck. The collection trough includes a collection container having an inlet configured to receive a material retained on the at least one of the top deck, the middle deck, and the bottom deck, and a sloped surface configured to guide the material from the inlet to an outlet of the collection container, and a pressure differential generator disposed proximate the outlet of the collection container.
