ABSTRACT:
Screen assemblies having a plurality of supports assembled with peripheral screen frames with screen cloth extending fully over the assemblies. The supports are assembled with each other and with the screen frame using dovetail mechanisms. Each support includes a cell structure having walls defining open cells. The walls have an elongate cross section to provide thickness to the structure. A thin support grid is integrally formed with the walls with the top of the support grid and the top of the walls lying in the same plane. The top of the surrounding frame also lies in this plane. The walls and the frame each have energy directors for ultrasonic bonding to the screen cloth laid over the assembly. The lower edge of the walls and of the screen frame also lie within a plane and have energy directors for receipt of a larger mesh closure screen to retain self-cleaning sliders or elements within the cells. The cells have no straight edges in plan. The support grid is defined by elongate elements each having a rounded upper surface to reduce stress on the screen cloth. The screen cloth may be lightly tensioned and can be of polymeric material as well as of metal such as stainless.
