Abstract
Abstract Sorting screen for fibre suspensions comprising a screen wall having recesses on a first side and narrower sorting apertures on the other, second side, these apertures opening into the recesses and the recesses each extending over a plurality of sorting apertures and being spaced in all directions from one another such that the screen wall has a net structure on its first side between the apertures. In order to achieve the utmost fineness when sorting with such a screen the recesses are arranged on the inflow side of the screen wall and the sorting apertures are designed as bores.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
101 words
A pressure sorter for fibre suspensions comprising a screen wall which is closed to form an annular sorting screen basket having an inflow side and a flow-off side, said basket having cylindrically shaped recesses arranged on the inflow side of the screen wall and narrower sorting apertures on the flow-off side, said apertures opening into said recesses and said recesses each extending over a plurality of sorting apertures and being spaced in all directions from one another such that the screen wall has a net structure on said inflow side between said recesses, wherein said sorting apertures are designed as bores.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
101 words
A pressure sorter for fibre suspensions comprising a screen wall which is closed to form an annular sorting screen basket having an inflow side and a flow-off side, said basket having cylindrically shaped recesses arranged on the inflow side of the screen wall and narrower sorting apertures on the flow-off side, said apertures opening into said recesses and said recesses each extending over a plurality of sorting apertures and being spaced in all directions from one another such that the screen wall has a net structure on said inflow side between said recesses, wherein said sorting apertures are designed as bores.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
A pressure sorter as defined in claim 1, wherein the thickness of the screen wall remaining at the base of the recesses is at most equal to the diameter of the sorting apertures.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
A pressure sorter as defined in claim 1, wherein the sorting apertures are cylindrical and countersunk at their ends remote from the recesses.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
14 words
A pressure sorter as defined in claim 1, wherein the sorting apertures are conical.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
18 words
A pressure sorter as defined in claim 1, wherein the sorting apertures widen in the direction of flow.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
32 words
A pressure sorter as defined in claim 1 having a rotor rotating alongside the screen wall, wherein the recesses are arranged on the side of the screen wall remote from the rotor.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
31 words
A pressure sorter as defined in claim 1 having a rotor rotating alongside the screen wall, wherein the recesses are arranged on the side of the screen wall facing the rotor.
