Sintered monolithic screening element with textured outer face
The granted patent US12050088B2 describes a novel screening element designed as a monolithic body with distinct structural features aimed at enhancing its performance. The body is constructed from a sintered material, with both inner and outer faces having a surface area of at least 100 cm². A key aspect of the design is the textured impact face, which has a mean thickness greater than 4 mm. The claims further specify that the inner and outer faces can be parallel, and they outline specific parameters regarding the relative changes in area and thickness, ensuring the element maintains structural integrity under various conditions. The design also includes dimensions for width, diameter, and height of features, which are critical for its intended applications.
Additionally, the patent details the material composition of the screening element, indicating that it may consist of metallic, ceramic, or cermet grains, with specific density and hardness requirements. The grains are characterized by a mean equivalent diameter of less than 500 micrometers and may include carbide or boride materials. The screening element can take various shapes, such as plates or tubes, suitable for applications like breastplates, shields, or vehicle chassis. The design may also incorporate sinusoidal profiles, with height variations defined by mathematical functions. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive framework for a screening element that combines structural robustness with specific material properties, making it suitable for protective applications.
