    摘要: A vibratory screening machine includes replaceable screen assemblies. Compression mechanisms are used to secure replaceable screen assemblies to the vibratory screening machine. Each compression mechanism applies a force to a replaceable screen assembly that includes both a horizontal component and a downward vertical component. Each replaceable screen assembly is typically substantially flat prior to installation on a vibratory screening machine. The force applied to a screen assembly by one or more compression mechanisms causes the screen assembly to be pushed into engagement with underlying concave support members such that the screen assembly itself assumes a concave shape with the center of the screen assembly being lower than the side edges. The vertical downward component of the force helps to secure the screen assembly to the screening machine.

    摘要: A screen assembly is formed by attaching side edges of a plurality of screen elements to each other. Reinforcing fibers may be embedded in the material of selected screen elements. The reinforcing fibers extend in a direction in which the screen assembly will be tensioned to secure the screen assembly to a screening machine. Hook strips may be attached to ends or sides of the screen assembly to facilitate mounting the screen assembly to a screening machine.

    摘要: A system for identifying a potential current or future issue in a well drilling system includes one or more sensors on a material separation system that processes materials generated by the well drilling system. The material separation system may include a vibratory screening machine. A sensor of the system may be configured to measure an acceleration of a portion of a machine that separates solids from liquids. Alternatively, the sensor of the system may be configured to measure a property of the solid-liquid mixture, the first solids-containing component and/or the shaker effluent. The system attempts to correlate well drilling operations to changes in the conditions experienced by the material separation system. When well drilling operations do not correlate to sensed changes in the conditions experienced by the material separation system, an alert is issued.

    摘要: 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.
