TENSIONING OF SIEVES', SCREENS AND THE LIKE Filed July 28, 1964 Y I 3 Sheets-Sheet 2 [nvenlor KENN M. EtL/OTT Sept. 5; 1967 K. 1.. ELLIOTT TENSIONING OF SIEVES, SCREENS AND THE LIKE 3 Sheets- Sheet 5 Filed July 28, 1964 Inventor ffflwem l. ELL rr United States Patent 3,339,594 TENSIONING OF SIEVES, SCREENS AND THE LIKE This invention relates to the tensioning of sieves, screens and the like for use in connection with the making up of sieves, for example for the flour industry, or in screen printing equipment, and generally where cloth or gauze like members are to be held taut.
In such equipment it is necessary to stretch the material constitutes the sieve, screen or like element, and secure the tightly stretched material on to a frame. These operations are laborious and it is extremely diflicult to ensure that the material is stretched evenly over the whole area and in all directions.
The invention provides means for securing the material to be tensioned to gripping members, effecting the tensioning by moving the gripping members outwards, bringing the tensioned material and a frame into contact with each other, and securing the material to the frame by an adhesive.
The invention also consists in an apparatus provided with a bed or surface on which a sieve, screen or like frame can be placed, and the bed or surface is bounded by gripping members in which the margins of the sieve, screen or like material can be securely gripped, means being provided for moving the gripping members out wards in unison so that the material will be progressively stretched to the appropriate degree of uniform tautness, means being also provided for lifting the bed or surface and hence the frame up to such a level that the material is in intimate contact with the upper surface of the frame, to which it can then be secured.
For securing the material the upper surface of the frame is preferably treated with an adhesive medium of such a nature that it is normally in a non-adhesive condition and requires to be activated by a solvent or heat application through the material in order to cause the latter to adhere to the frame.
In order to cause the several gripping members to move outwards to tension the material they are preferably connected by linkages with an operating shaft, for instance the shaft may have left and right-hand screw-threads operating a pair of brackets which are thereby made to move axially along the shaft, the brackets in turn being arranged to actuate the linkages.
Preferably the frame supporting bed or surface is similarly raised and. lowered by linkages connected with brackets moving along one or more rightand left-hand screw thread shafts.
One or a number of sieves, screens, or the like can be mounted on frames on a single bed or surface as indicated and cut out therefrom.
Constructional forms of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a section on line AA of FIGURE 2.
FIGURE 2 is a plan with a top frame omitted.
FIGURE 3 is a diagram showing a plate raising operation.
FIGURE 4 is a diagram showing a tensioning operation.
FIGURES 5 and 6 are details showing gripping devices.
FIGURE 7 is a similar view to FIGURE 4 showing a modification.
The apparatus comprises a base 10 of any suitable 3,339,594 Patented Sept. 5 1967 ICC shape, for instance rectangular. A handwheel 11 is mounted on a shaft 12 extending centrally along this base, see FIGURES 1, 2 and 4. The shaft 12 is carried in suitable bearings at each end and can be rotated by the handwheel 11. The shaft has two screw-threaded portions 12 12", one near each end, one having left-hand threads and the other right-hand threads. The shaft has an internally screw-threaded bracket or yoke fitted on to it near each end, so that when the shaft is rotated in one direction the two brackets or yokes 13, 14 move further apart under the action of the screw-threads, and when the shaft is rotated in the opposite direction the two brackets or yokes move closer together. Along each side of the base a gripping member 15 is carried and a further gripping member 16 along each end, these members having depending pairs of feet 15 16 which engage in slides. Each bracket or yoke on the shaft 12 projects at right angles from the shaft in both directions and each end has connected to it the outer end of one arm 18 of a three armed linkage 18, 19, 20, the three arms radiating from a common pivot 21.
. The area defined by the gripping members shown is square but if it were oblong the end adjustment would probably need to be greater than the side ones and in this case provision is made for allowing the pivots 21 to be moved diagonally outwards in guides 22. The outer ends of the other two arms in each set are connected to the end gripping member 16 and to one of the side gripping members 15. Thus when the bracket moves further apart along the shaft each bracket operates its own three- armed linkages 18, 19, 20 with the result that a toggle action is exerted on the gripping member, all four of which move outwards to stretch a sheet of flexible material such as a sieve or silk gripped by them. The gripping members 15, 16 are formed with channels, see especially FIGURES 5 and 6, having upwardly-inclined rubber or similar seatings 23. Loose rails or bars 24 provided with handles 25 are inserted into these channels and turned around so that they are jammed in place and trap the flexible material 26 tightly in position in the channels so that it is firmly gripped and cannot slip during stretching. A suitably shaped underframe 30, for instance rectangular, supports a working bed or table 29, FIG. 1 (which is omitted from FIG. 2 in order to show the parts below), at a level below the material 26 so that the tensioned material will be well clear of the bed or table. In use the loose screen frames will be placed on the bed 29 and these screen frames are usually coated with a thermoplastic or other medium having strong adhesive properties when activated. The underframe 30 is provided with blocks or lugs 31 on its underside to which link 32 are pivotally connected and the links are in turn connected to collars 33, for instance there may be one of these linkages near each of the four corners of the bed. Two shafts 34 are mounted in bearings in the base of the machine under the bed, each shaft having left and right-handed screw-threaded portions 34 34 on which the collars are fitted. Rotation of the shafts in one direction moves the collars further away from each other and rotation of the shafts in the other direction moves the collars towards each other, by which means their linkages are caused to raise or lower the bed on which the screen frame, or table 29 rests. These two shafts may each have its own handwheel 35 or they may be geared together to work in unison. Thus when the material 26 has been properly stretched tight as already described the underframe 30 and the table 29 carried by it can be raised up into contact with the underside of the material. The prepared upper surface of the frame can now be activated by heat or a solvent applied through the material 26 and the material will be firmly stuck to the frame. Obviously any other method of securing the material to the frame (suitable to the material of which the frame is made) can be practised.
In the modification of FIGURE 7 the yokes 13, 14 of the two end members 16 are directly mounted on left and right-hand screw threads 12 12 on the screw 12, and the two side members 15 are connected to the yokes by radius arms 36.
The invention greatly expedites the operation of stretching the material and ensures perfectly uniform tensioning, with great rapidity and without demanding any particular skill or experience.
