A vibratory screen assembly includes a rigid frame having a pair of parallel side members that are spaced apart such that a space is provided between them. A tappet assembly extending horizontally across the space between the side members includes a horizontal member having opposing ends secured to the frame. A screen placed over the tappet assembly provides a screening medium having a mesh size. A vibrator motor is located at each of the opposing ends of the horizontal member to form a cooperative pair of vibrator motors that induce vibrations in the horizontal member and in the screen. As the screen vibrates, aggregate material that is smaller than the mesh size passes through the screening medium and aggregate material that is larger than the mesh size does not pass through the screening medium.

The invention discloses a double vibration source square oscillating sieve, comprising a support frame, a sieve body, connecting rods and a vibration exciter; the sieve body is slantwise provided in the support frame, the front side and back side of the sieve body are both provided with the connecting rods, and two ends of the connecting rods are connected with the upper part of the support frame and the lower part of the sieve body by a cross universal joint; the vibration exciter is fixedly provided on any position of the upper end, the lower end and the middle part of the sieve body, and the sieve body is provided with a motor which is connected with the vibration exciter by a belt; the vibration exciter comprises a fixed housing, a gear portion, first vibration excitation assemblies and second vibration excitation assemblies which are connected with the gear portion.

An apparatus that generates vibrational motion is disclosed. The apparatus includes a first mass, a second mass, a drive system, and a control system. The first mass is eccentrically mounted on, and configured to rotate about, a first shaft. The second mass is eccentrically mounted on, and configured to rotate about, a second shaft, with first and second shafts sharing a common axis. The drive system imparts rotational motion to first and second shafts, and the control system controls rotational frequencies, directions, and initial angles of the first and second masses. Linear, elliptical, or circular vibratory motion of the apparatus may be induced by controlling such rotational properties of the first and second masses. The apparatus may include a measurement device that measures angular position and/or velocity of the first and second masses. The control system may control the vibrational motion based on measurements taken by the measurement device.

The vibrating screen have a screen deck, two sidewalls and a mechanical vibrator comprising two shafts, rotating at the same rotation and in opposite directions, each one of the end portions of each shaft carrying an eccentric weight and being supported on bearings which are supported in the sidewalls of the vibrating screen. The shafts have their end portions, adjacent to each other, supported on bearings mounted to a same bearing case fixed to beams, transversal and having opposite ends fixed to the sidewalls of the vibrating screen. Each end portion of a shaft carries an eccentric weight with a total mass different from that one of the eccentric weights of the end portions of the other shaft, said shafts rotating in determined phases, defining the inclination of the major axis of an elliptical movement imparted to the screen deck.

A vibration generating mechanism for a screen box includes a drive shaft arranged to be rotatably driven by a drive motor, at least one first eccentric out-of-balance weight fixed with respect to the drive shaft for rotation therewith and at least one second eccentric out-of-balance weight coupled to the drive shaft via gearing. The first and second out-of-balance weights rotate in opposite directions when driven by the drive shaft.

Vibratory material classifiers are disclosed. Some embodiments include eccentric shaft assemblies having removable eccentric weights. Some embodiments include oil access and indicator conduit extending from the interior to the exterior of a classifier.

A system and method for a vacuum driven separating device is disclosed.

An apparatus includes a vibratory separator having a frame and a screen, a lift housing disposed proximate the vibratory separator, and a lift system disposed in the lift housing and configured to selectively engage a portion of the vibratory separator to lift the portion of the vibratory separator. A method includes actuating an actuator and vertically extending a lifting member, contacting an alignment device coupled to the lifting member with a corresponding alignment device coupled to a portion of a vibratory separator, and raising the portion of the vibratory separator to provide access to a screen of the vibratory separator.

A screening apparatus is disclosed. The screening apparatus includes a support; at least two screen decks arranged one over the other as an assembly, each screen deck including a screen frame, a screen and a chamber underlaying the screen surface, an outlet duct for oversized material and an outlet duct for undersized material that is in communication with the chamber; mountings configured for mounting of the assembly of the at least two screen decks to the support; and a feed unit configured to feed the material to be screened to each screen deck. The feed unit includes at least one distributor having one distributor inlet and at least two distributor outlets, which at least two distributor outlets are arranged to feed one screen deck each.

A vibratory apparatus including a trough having one or more decks, with an inlet end and an outlet end, a first plurality of isolation springs disposed between the trough and ground, and a two-mass, sub-resonant frequency exciter supported on the trough. The trough and the exciter move 180-degrees out of phase with each other. The apparatus also includes a dynamic balancer including a plurality of isolation springs disposed between the exciter and ground.
