Replaceable screen panel seal strip

摘要

A T shaped screen panel seal strip for use in spanning between screen support rails in a vibrating screen is disclosed, which has a plurality of notches therein in registration with the screen support rails so that the strip can be placed over either new or existing screen support rails (after having been cleaned of any cushioning cap material). The strip can be metallic or a plastic material. The method includes retrofitting existing screens with a new sealing strip by first removing any cushion cap material and then placing the T shaped seal strip over the support rails.

主权项

1. A screen panel seal strip comprising:
a piece of material being sized and configured with a predetermined shape, where a horizontal top portion of the shape has a thickness characteristic which is substantially the same as a distance from a plurality of supporting rail to a top cushion cover disposed on said plurality of supporting rails for a predetermined vibrating screen; a plurality of voids disposed in an upright portion of said shape, where the voids have a dimension which is slightly larger but substantially the same as a rail width characteristic of said supporting rail; and said plurality of voids being spaced apart from each other in registration with said plurality of supporting rails, so that said piece of material can be caused to span a plurality of rails when said piece of material is pressed downward so that said voids are filled by a plurality of support rails.
