1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method for producing a rotationally symmetrical screening device.
2. Description of the Related Art
Screening devices may be used for example for screening of fibrous stock suspensions, as is done in pressure screens in the paper industry. The fibers that are contained in the suspension are to hereby penetrate through the screen, whereas the undesirable solid components are rejected at the gap and are directed out of the screen device.
Due to the fact that the openings are essentially longitudinal, in other words are slots or gaps, fibrous particles pass easier if both types are present in similar dimensions. With this type of screening technology very effective discharging of non-fibrous contaminants from the fibrous stock suspension is thus made possible. Also conceivable is utilization for separating of different fibrous components—a so-called fiber fractioning. However, a prerequisite herein is high precision of the slot size across the entire screen surface. For stringent requirements, cylindrical screening devices in the embodiment of so-called screen baskets are mostly used.
The screening devices can either be arranged for centrifugal operation with a suspension flow from the inside toward the outside and with profiled bars inserted on the inside edge of the bar holders, or for a centripetal operation with a suspension flow from the outside toward the inside and with profiled bars inserted on the outside edge of the bar holders. With screening devices for centrifugal operation which have bar holders arranged on the outside and profiled bars arranged on the inside, the curvature radius of the bar holders is generally greater when inserting the profiled bars than the radius of curvature of the screen cylinder. Subsequently the radius of curvature of the bar holders is reduced for wedging of the profiled bars. In the case of centripetal operation with bar holders arranged on the inside and profiled bars arranged on the outside the radius curvature of the bar holders during insertion of the profiled bars is generally less than the radius of curvature of the screen cylinder. Subsequently the radius of curvature of the bar holders is increased for wedging of the profiled bars.
To produce screening devices for a centrifugal operation, straight bar holders are generally produced initially and the profiled bars are inserted into these bar holders. The bar holders with the inserted profiled bars are subsequently bent into an open C-shape. Finally, the bar holders are formed into closed rings and their two abutment ends are firmly connected with one another. A method of this type is described for example in DE 39 27 748 A1.
In contrast, to produce screening devices for centripetal operation, curved bar holders consisting of several segments are generally produced initially, whose radius of curvature is less than that of the finished screening device. After the profiled bars are inserted into these bar holders, rings are formed, whereby the radius of curvature of the bar holders is enlarged through reshaping, as a result of which the recesses narrow again, thus wedging the profiled bars. The two abutment ends of the bar holders are subsequently again connected firmly with one another. A relevant method is described for example in DE 10 2006 008 172 A1.
Conventional screening devices for centrifugal operation with merely wedged profiled bars may be usable only to a limited extent, depending upon the respectively used rotor or the respective application. The profiled bars were therefore welded together with the annular bar holders. During operation however failures occurred in a multitude of screening devices within a very short period of time, the reason for which is found in the welding process.
In the case of screening devices designed for centripetal operation where the profiled bars were also welded together with the annular bar holders the same problems occurred as did with the screening devices designed for centrifugal operation. In one initially only wedged version that was arrived at through pre-bending, sufficient wedging was not achieved. Also, breaks occurred with this version. An additional problem with some screening devices results in connection with the attachment of the ferrules of the screening device or respectively screen baskets, regardless of whether the profiled bars are welded together with the bar holders or not. The main stress during operation of the screening device may occur most strongly in the region of the welded seam at the ferrule, since this is also the force transfer point with the greatest tension stress. This too represents a permanent weak point that repeatedly leads to the ferrules breaking off the perforated screen at this location. The reason for this is also based in the welding process.
US 2011/0005 981 A1 describes an alternative cylindrical screening device wherein at least one additional strip-like bar holder with recesses that are open at the edges is inserted in addition to the first strip-like bar holders.
With some prior art methods and screening devices, the described stability problems entail restrictions during use for certain rotors, rotor speeds and design variations.
What is needed in the art is a method as well as a screening device in which the previously discussed problems are eliminated. Such a method is intended to produce screening devices, in particular screen baskets having optimum strength as simply as possible and accordingly cost effectively and without the requirement to weld the profiled bars to the bar holders. With optimum strength and accordingly greater breakage resistance and durability such screening devices are intended in particular for use in more varied applications. Moreover, the risk of breakage in the region of the welding areas between the ferrules and the profiled bar bond is to be minimized as much as possible.
The present invention relates to a method for producing a rotationally symmetrical screening device, in particular a cylindrical screening device having a plurality of profiled bars, whereby first strip-like bar holders are produced, the shape of which deviates from the later annular shape in the finished screening device and which have recesses that are open at the edges into which the profiled bars can be inserted. The profiled bars are inserted parallel to one another into the recesses of the first bar holders that are open at the edges. Rings are produced from the first bar holders that are fitted with the profiled bars by bending, due to the bending the profile bars are wedged into the narrowing recesses and after bending the first bar holders are firmly connected to one another at both their abutment ends.
The invention further relates to a screening device produced by such method, in particular a screen basket, for example for a pressure screen that can be utilized in the paper industry as well as to a screening device, in particular a screen basket for example for a pressure screen that can be utilized in the paper industry, having a plurality of profiled bars that are inserted, wedged parallel to one another in the recesses that are open at the edges in strip-like bar holders that were bent into rings and whose two abutting ends are firmly connected with one another.
The present invention relates to a method for producing a rotationally symmetrical screening device. The present invention provides a method in that at least one additional respective strip-like bar holder having recesses that are open at the edges is produced in each case in addition to the first strip-like bar holders, whose shape deviates from the subsequent annular shape in the first screening device, and whose height measured in the radial direction of the subsequent annular shape is less than the height of the respective first bar holder. The method also provides that the first strip-like bar holders and the further strip like bar holders associated therewith are used to form bar holder packages, each consisting of one first strip-like bar holder and at least one additional strip-like bar holder that directly adjoins or is spaced apart therefrom in axial direction of the finished screening device, and in that the profiled bars are inserted parallel to one other into the recesses of the bar holder packages that are open at the edges. When the first bar holders are bent, the further bar holders are bent at the same time, thereby wedging the profiled bars also in the recesses of these additional bar holders due to the narrowing of the recesses of the additional bar holders, and in that after bending the bar holder packages are firmly connected with one another at both their abutment ends.
The method of the present invention is suitable for producing screening devices for centrifugal operation as well as for producing screening devices for centripetal operation.
By providing at least twice or double the bar holders that have a different height according to the invention offset wedging is achieved, thereby providing the screening devices with greater strength, so that they are more durable and no longer break so soon. Even without the requirement of welding the profiled bars to the bar holders, as well as without soft or hard welding, adhesive bonding, etc., great strength of the screening devices or respectively the screen baskets is achieved, solely through wedging of the profiled bars in the recesses of the bar holders. The screening devices are accordingly more versatile and respectively suitable for a wider range of applications without having to accept the aforementioned risks, in particular breaks or similar defects.
At least one bar holder package can be formed for example from a first bar holder and an additional bar holder. At least one bar holder package can however also be formed for example from one first bar holder and two additional bar holders. Herein, all additional bar holders of a respective bar holder package may be of a lower height than the first bar holder of the respective bar holder package.
The bar holders of a respective bar holder package are placed axially directly adjoining or spaced apart in axial direction of the screening device that is to be produced, whereupon the screen mat can be fitted as described with the profiled bars. Due to the lower height of the additional bar holders the thus created screen mat can for example be pre-shaped as previously on a 3-roll mill with grooves that are introduced for bar holders. Due to the lower height of the additional bar holders the screen mat fits also into the previously used hydraulic cylinders by which the ends of the higher first bar holder can be held hydraulically, pulled together under tension and welded. The additional lower height bar holders are thereby “dragged along”.
Due to the difference in length created as a result of the different neutral fibers, different wedging and a “distortion effect” occur at the bar holder package. Also between the, for example, laser cut bar holder recesses and the profiled bars, length changes of different dimensions may occur, leading to a mutual distortion. Due to this effect and the additional greater bar holder thickness an extremely stable screening device or respectively an extremely stable screen basket having high clamping force is the result.
The strip-like bar holders can for example be produced by laser cutting. The respective additional bar holders may be designed to be of lesser height than the first bar holders. Consequently, during further processing, for example by a combined bending-welding machine the additional bar holders are non-obstructive and fit into the relevant devices without any problems.
In certain cases it may be advantageous if the bar holders of at least one bar holder package are manufactured from the same material.
It is however also conceivable to produce the bar holders of at least one bar holder package at least partially from a different material. The bar holders of at least one bar holder package can thereby be produced at least partially from a different material, in order to provide the bar holders at least partially with different expansion-, tensile strength- and/or frictional properties.
In addition, the bar holders of at least one bar holder package may have a different thickness, at least partially, measured in axial direction of the finished screening device. However, they also may be the same thickness.
As already mentioned, the first strip-like bar holders can be bent into rings by bending devices in the previously described manner, and the additional strip-like bar holders that are associated with the first strip-like bar holders can be dragged along via the profiled bars that are inserted into the recesses of the bar holder packages that are open on the edges and can thus also be bent into rings. The first strip-like bar holders can in particular be wedged into the bending devices when being bent into rings. Finally, the bar holder packages are connected with one another at both their abutment ends by welding.
Bending of the bar holder packages and joining of the two abutment ends of the bar holder packages can be implemented in the same machine, in particular in a combination bending and welding machine. The different approach in producing screening devices for centrifugal operation and for screening devices for centripetal operation was already discussed previously. In principle, the method according to the invention may be used for producing both types of screening devices or respectively screen baskets. A respective screening device can for example comprise two or also more bar holder packages in axial direction of the screening device and at a distance from one another.
Further, an additional alternative of a method according to the invention provides that in addition to the two first strip-like bar holders that are to be positioned in the finished screening device in the region of a face side ferrule of the screening device there may be one additional strip-like bar holder with recesses that are open on the edges whose shape deviates from the subsequent annular shape in the finished screening device. The height of the additional strip-like bar holder measured in the radial direction of the subsequent annular shape is less than the height of the respective first bar holder. The respective first strip-like bar holders and the further strip-like bar holders associated therewith are used to form bar holder packages, each consisting of one first strip-like bar holder and one further strip-like bar holder that directly adjoins the first strip-like bar in the axial direction of the finished screening device, located between the first strip-like bar holder and the respective ferrule, and in that the profiled bars are inserted parallel to each other into the recesses of the bar holder packages that are open at the edges. When the first bar holders are bent, the further bar holders are bent at the same time, thereby wedging the profiled bars also occurs in the recesses of the further bar holders due to the narrowing of the further bar holders, and in that after bending the bar holder packages are firmly connected with one another at both their abutment ends. The additional bar holder of a respective bar holder package is subsequently fitted backlash-free into an indentation of the respective ferrule and is welded together with the ferrule, wherein the first bar holder of a respective bar holder package is in contact with the inside face of the respective ferrule and is welded together with the ferrule in the region of its edge facing away from the profiled bars.
For the production of a centrifugally operable screening device with profiled bars that are inserted on the inside edge of the bar holders, the additional bar holder of a respective bar holder package can be welded together with the respective ferrule by a welding seam in the region of the inside diameter of the respective ferrule, and the bar holder of a respective bar holder package via a seal seam in the region of its outside diameter.
The heat-affected zone of the main welding seam thereby reaches deeper into the respective ferrule, and the deforming force of the profiled bars acts more strongly during operation in the screening device upon the non-welded wedging point in the bar holder package or on the first bar holder of greater or normal height. The welding seam is hereby clearly relieved, whereby also the notch effect is less effective due to a clearly reduced load. Consequently, in particular the risk of breakage in the area of the welding region between the ferrules and the profiled bar connection may be reduced to a minimum.
This second alternative of a method according to the invention can be combined with the first alternative of a method according to the invention, or can be used separately. This means that the bar holder packages according to the invention in the region of the ferrules according to the second inventive alternative are may be usable individually, without necessarily having to provide additional inventive bar holder packages. As already mentioned, a combination of both alternatives of the method according to the invention is also conceivable.
Both variations of the method according to the invention are suitable for producing screening devices for centrifugal operation as well as for producing screening devices for centripetal operation. When producing screening devices for centripetal operation, screen baskets may also be produced according to the “drag-strip” principle on a bending-/welding machine. Here, profiled bars consisting of segments that initially have a smaller radius of curvature may be bent. In this case too, bar holder packages are formed from first and additional bar holders, whereby the additional bar holders during pre-bending of the first bar holders are again “dragged along” accordingly. The bar holder packages may be tensioned on a bending-/welding machine. The same effect of distortion may occur based on the occurring length difference or respectively the different neutral fibers. For screening devices for centrifugal operation and screening devices for centripetal operation the connectivity of the ferrule can be implemented analogously in the described manner.
A first alternative for a screening device according to the invention, for example a screen basket for a pressure screen that can be utilized in the paper industry is characterized in that it is produced by a method according to the invention.
The advantages of such an inventive screening device result from the advantages that have already been mentioned in the context of the method according to the invention.
Based on a screening device of the type discussed at the beginning, in other words a screening device, in particular a screen basket for a pressure screen that can be utilized in the paper industry having a plurality of profiled bars that are inserted parallel to one another, wedged into recesses that are open at the edges of first strip-like bar holders that are bent into rings, whose two abutment ends are connected firmly with one another, an additional alternative of a screening device according to the invention is characterized in that in addition to the first bar holders there may be at least one further strip-like bar holder having recesses that are open at the edges and that is bent into a ring and whose radial height is less than the height of the respective first bar holder. The first bar holders and the additional bar holders associated therewith form bar holder packages, each consisting of one first bar holder and at least one additional bar holder that directly adjoins or is spaced apart therefrom in the axial direction of the finished screening device. The profiled bars are inserted parallel to one another, wedged in the recesses of the bar holder packages that are open at the edges, whereby the profiled bars are also wedged in the recesses of the additional bar holders, and in that the bent over bar holder packages are connected firmly with one another at both their abutment ends. A screening device of this type may also be produced by an inventive method. The advantages of such an inventive screening device result again directly from the advantages that have already been mentioned in the context of the method according to the invention.
Further based on the screening device of the type discussed at the beginning, in other words a screening device, in particular a screen basket for a pressure screen that can be utilized in the paper industry having a plurality of profiled bars that are inserted parallel to one another, wedged into recesses that are open at the edges of first strip-like bar holders that are bent into rings, whose two abutment ends are connected firmly with one another, an additional alternative of a screening device according to the invention is characterized in that in addition to the two first bar holders that are to be positioned in the region of a respective face side ferrule of the screening device there may be one additional bar holder that is bent into a ring and which has recesses that are open on the edges. The radial height of the additional bar holder is less than the height of the respective first bar holder. The respective first bar holders and the additional bar holders associated therewith form bar holder packages, each consisting of one first bar holder and one additional bar holder that directly adjoins or is spaced apart therefrom at a certain distance in the axial direction, located between the first bar holder and the respective ferrule. The profiled bars are inserted parallel to each other into the recesses of the bar holder packages that are open at the edges and wedged, whereby the profiled bars are also wedged in the narrowed recesses of the additional bar holders that are bent into rings. The bent bar holder packages are firmly connected at their two abutment ends. The additional bar holder of a respective bar holder package is fitted backlash-free into an indentation of the respective ferrule and is welded together with the ferrule and the first bar holder of a respective bar holder package is in contact with the inside face of the respective ferrule and is welded together with the ferrule in the region of its edge facing away from the profiled bars.
This version of an inventive screening device can be used in combination with at least one of the previously discussed variations of an inventive screening device, or separately. The advantages of such an inventive screening device result again from the advantages that have already been discussed in the context of the method according to the invention.
In a case where the screening device is intended for centrifugal operation, in other words in cases where the suspension flow is directed from the inside to the outside and where the profiled bars are inserted on the inside edge of the bar holders it may be that the additional bar holder of a respective bar holder package is welded together with the respective ferrule via a welding seam in the region of the inside diameter of the respective ferrule, and the first bar holder of a respective bar holder package via a seal seam in the region of its outside diameter.
The advantages of this embodiment result again from the advantages that have already been discussed in the context of the relevant method.
At least one bar holder package of a respective variation of an inventive screening device can consist of one first bar holder and one additional bar holder, or of one first bar holder and two additional bar holders, whereby the additional bar holders have a lower height than the first bar holder. The strip-like bar holders can for example be produced by laser cutting. The bar holders of at least one bar holder package can be produced from the same material or at least partially from a different material. In the latter case the bar holders of at least one bar holder package can be produced at least partially from a different material, and can therefore have at least partially different expansion-, tensile strength- and/or frictional properties.
The bar holders of at least one bar holder package of a respective version of an inventive screening device can have the same thickness measured in the axial direction of the screening device, or can also have a different thickness. The bar holder packages can be connected with one another in particular through welding.
Perforated strips having cylindrical and/or conical screening openings can for example also be inserted between the profiled bars.
The above-mentioned and other features and advantages of this invention, and the manner of attaining them, will become more apparent and the invention will be better understood by reference to the following description of embodiments of the invention taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Corresponding reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views. The exemplifications set out herein illustrate embodiments of the invention and such exemplifications are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention in any manner.
Referring now to
Screening device 10 includes a multitude of profiled bars 12, only one of which is recognizable in the current example. These profiled bars 12 are inserted, wedged, parallel to one another into recesses in first strip-like bar holders 14 that are open on the edges, the two abutment ends of which are firmly connected with one another, in particular are welded together.
In addition to first bar holders 14 at least one additional strip-like bar holder 16 is provided that has recesses that are open on the edges and that is bent into a ring, and whose radial height h16 is less than radial height h14 of the respective first bar holder 14.
First bar holders 14 and additional bar holders 16 associated therewith form bar holder packages 18 consisting of one first bar holder 14 and at of at least one additional bar holder 16, located immediately adjacent in axial direction A of the screening device 10.
Profiled bars 12 are inserted, wedged parallel to one another into the recesses of bar holder packages 18 that are open at the edges, whereby profiled bars 12 are also wedged into the recesses of additional bar holders 16. The bent over bar holder packages 18 are firmly connected with one another at both their abutment ends, for example by welding.
To produce such a rotationally symmetrical, for example, cylindrical screening device 10, first strip-like bar holders 14 are produced whose shape deviates from the subsequent annular shape in finished screening device 10 and which is provided with recesses that are open at the edges into which profiled bars 12 can be inserted.
Profiled bars 12 are inserted parallel to one another into the recesses of first bar holders 14 that are open at the edges. Rings are produced by bending of profiled bars 12 that are fitted with first bar holders 14. Profiled bars 12 are wedged in to the recesses that narrowed due to bending. After bending, first bar holders 14 are firmly connected with one another at their abutment ends, for example, by welding.
According to the invention at least one additional respective strip-like bar holder 16 having recesses that are open at the edges is produced in addition to the first strip-like bar holders 14, whose shape deviates from the later annular shape in the finished screening device 10 and whose height h16, measured in radial direction of the later annular shape is less than the height h14 of the respective first bar holder 14. First strip-like bar holders 14 and additional strip-like bar holders 16 associated therewith are used to form bar holder packages 18, each including respectively of one first strip-like bar holder 14 and at least one additional strip-like bar holder 16 that directly adjoins therefrom in axial direction A of the finished screening device 10.
Profiled bars 12 are inserted parallel to one another into the recesses of bar holder packages 18 that are open at the edges. When first bar holders 14 are bent, additional bar holders 16 are bent at the same time. Profiled bars 12 are thereby also wedged in the recesses of additional bar holders 16 due to the narrowing of these additional bar holders 16. After bending, bar holder packages 18 are firmly connected with one another at both their abutment ends, for example by welding.
First strip-like bar holders 14 are bent into rings by bending devices 20 and additional strip-like bar holders 16 that are associated with the first strip-like bar holders 14 are dragged along via profiled bars 12 that are inserted into the recesses of the bar holder packages 18 that are open on the edges and are thus also be bent into rings. First strip-like bar holders 14 are hereby now wedged into bending devices 20 when being bent into rings.
Due to the lower height of the inertia ring-bar holders 16 the thus created screen mat can for example be pre-shaped quite normally on a 3-roll mill with grooves that are introduced for bar holders or bearers. The screen mat may possibly also fit into hydraulic cylinder packages of a bending-/welding machine by which the screen ends of higher first bar holders 14 can for example be held hydraulically, pulled together under tension and welded.
As already mentioned, additional bar holders 16 of lower height are thereby “dragged along”.
Due to the difference in length created herein as a result of the different neutral fibers, different wedging and a “distortion effect” may occur at the strip package. Also, between the, for example, laser cut profiled bar groove and the profiled bars, length changes of different dimensions may occur, leading to a mutual distortion. Due to this effect and the additional greater bearer thickness, an extremely stable screen basket having high clamping force is the result.
Bending devices 20 may also include rolls with grooves or similar devices.
Referring now to
Screening device 10, for example a screen basket for a pressure screen that can be utilized in the paper industry again comprises a plurality of profiled bars 12 that are inserted parallel to one another, wedged into recesses that are open at the edges of first strip-like bar holders 14 that are bent into rings, whose two abutment ends are connected firmly with one another, preferably by welding.
In addition to the two first bar holders 14 that are positioned the region of a respective face side ferrule 22 of the screening device 10 there may be one additional bar holder 16 that is bent into a ring and which has recesses that are open on the edges according to the present invention, whose radial height h16 is less than the radial height h14 of the respective first bar holder 14.
Respective first bar holders 14 and additional bar holders 16 associated therewith are herein used to form bar holder packages 18, each consisting of one first bar holder 14 and one additional bar holder 16 that directly adjoins or is spaced apart therefrom at a certain distance in axial direction A, located between first bar holder 14 and respective ferrule 22.
Profiled bars 12 are inserted parallel to each other into the recesses of bar holder 18 that are open at the edges and wedged, whereby profiled bars 12 are also wedged in the narrowed recesses of additional bar holders 16 that are bent into rings. Bent bar holder packages 18 are firmly connected with one another at both their abutment ends, for example by welding.
Additional bar holder 16 of a respective bar holder package 18 in the region of a respective ferrule 22 is fitted backlash-free into an indentation of the respective ferrule 22 and is welded together with the ferrule 22. In the region of a respective ferule 22, first bar holder 14 of a respective bar holder package 18 is in contact with inside face 26 of the respective ferrule 22 and is welded together with the ferrule 22 in the region of its edge facing away from the profiled bars 12.
The profiled bars 12 may be inserted for example on the inside edge of bar holders 14, 16. In such a case, the screening device 10 may be intended for centrifugal operation, whereby the suspension flow is directed from the inside to the outside. Additional bar holder 16 of a respective bar holder package 18 that is provided in a region of a ferrule 22 is connected through welding with respective ferrule 22 via a welding seam 28 in the region of the inside diameter of the respective ferrule 22, and the first bar holder 14 of such a bar holder package 18 via a seal seam 30 in the region of its outside diameter.
In the current example at least one additional bar holder package 18 is also provided between bar holder packages 18 that are provided in the region of ferrules 22, that may be designed and produced in the manner previously described. However, designs of screening device 10 are also conceivable, wherein only in the region of the ferrules 22 such bar holder packages 18 with additional bar holders 16 allocated to the first bar holders may be provided.
In the design of the screening device 10 described last, or respectively the ferrule connection, the heat affected zone 34 of the main welding seam penetrates deeper into the ferrule 22, and the deforming force of profiled bars 12 acts more strongly during operation in the screening device upon the non-welded wedging point 32 in the strip package or on the first bearer or bar holder 14 of greater or normal height. The welding seam is hereby clearly relieved, whereby also the notch effect is less effective due to a clearly reduced load.
To produce such a rotationally symmetrical, for example, a cylindrical screening device 10 of the type illustrated in
In addition to the two first strip-like bar holders 14 that are to be positioned in finished screening device 10 in the region of a respective face side ferrule 22 of the screening device 10, there may be one additional strip-like bar holder 16 with recesses that are open on the edges according to the invention whose shape deviates from the subsequent annular shape in finished the screening device 10, and whose height h16 measured in radial direction of the subsequent annular shape is less than height h14 of respective first bar holder 14.
Bar holder packages 18 are formed from respective first strip-like bar holders 14 and additional strip-like bar holders 16 associated therewith, each consisting of one first strip-like bar holder 14 and one further strip-like bar holder 16 that directly adjoins the first strip-like bar holder 14 in axial direction A of the finished screening device 10, located between first strip-like bar holder 14 and respective ferrule 22.
Profiled bars 12 are inserted parallel to each other into the recesses of bar holder packages 18 that are open at the edges. By bending the first bar holders 14, the additional bar holders 16 are bent at the same time, thereby wedging profiled bars 12 also in the recesses of the additional bar holders 16 due to the narrowing of these additional bar holders 16.
After bending, bar holder packages 18 are firmly connected with one another at their abutment ends, for example by welding. Additional bar holder 16 of a respective bar holder package 18 is subsequently fitted backlash-free into an indentation of the respective ferrule 22 and is welded together with the ferrule 22. First bar holder 14 of a respective bar holder package 18 is in contact with inside face 26 of the respective ferrule and is welded together with ferrule 22 in the region of its edge facing away from profiled bars 12.
For the production of a centrifugally operated screening device 10 with profiled bars 12 that are inserted on the inside edge of bar holders 14, 16, additional bar holder 16 of a respective bar holder package 18 can be welded together with the respective ferrule 22 by a welding seam 28 in the region of the inside diameter of respective ferrule 22, and first bar holder 14 of a respective bar holder package 18 via a seal seam 30 in the region of its outside diameter.
While this invention has been described with respect to at least one embodiment, the present invention can be further modified within the spirit and scope of this disclosure. This application is therefore intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the invention using its general principles. Further, this application is intended to cover such departures from the present disclosure as come within known or customary practice in the art to which this invention pertains and which fall within the limits of the appended claims.
