OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The invention, as expressed in the statement of the present specification, refers to a screening table of flowers, stems, leaves, pollen and trichomes of plants that contributes, to the function to which it is intended, advantages and novelty characteristics, which they are described in detail below, which represent an improved alternative for the current state of the art.

More specifically, the object of the invention is centered on a plant screening table, especially applicable for the cannabis sector, whose configuration is specially designed to allow the separation of flowers, stems, leaves, pollen and trichomes from plants in different sections and compartments. , for which it works as a machine in which the materials go through the thin sections to clear flowers, stems, leaves, pollen and the cannabis resin glands called trichomes, which accumulate in the different sections of the table by size thanks to the fact that it is divided into several sections with different perforation diameters and distance between them, in order to obtain the best possible result by providing a product screened and separated in a shorter working time, by means of finer and more exhaustive classifications in the leaves, stems, pollen and trichomes.

FIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION

The field of application of the present invention is part of the industry sector dedicated to the manufacture of tools used for screening and dehydration of flowers, stems, leaves, pollen and trichomes of plants, mainly in the cannabis sector.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Screening has traditionally been a system for cleaning grain (mainly wheat) from straw, dust and other unwanted solids with which it was mixed. The operation in which a sieve is used is called ahercha or sieve, and it has been best known for its realization in the construction sector where sieves are traditionally used for

separation of arid materials.

The traditional operation of the sieves consists in throwing the material in a hopper that distributes it through a sieve that has one or more meshes of wire or material that allows it to pass through it. In this way the material falls to the next segment by its weight, and the air pushes the remains. The screen is tilted so that with the movement from one part to another, the movement causes the introduction of the material through the perforations, being separated from the remains of larger size.

At present, in the sector object of the present invention, there are different types of sieves with perforations, however they are not found with meshes for dehydration of plants.

The aim of the present invention is, therefore, to develop a screening table with which the screening phases, which were traditionally uncomfortable, slow and in which remnants and trichomes of the material were lost, can now be performed ergonomically and efficiently, accurately separating the different elements and materials of the plant without losses, leaving the remaining stored.

In the traditional tools for screening stems, flowers and leaves, a large amount of resin glands and smaller leaves were lost, as well as pollen mixing the remains and discarding them.

Also in the traditional tools the position of the person who drives is uncomfortable and not very ergonomic, requiring great efforts to achieve the final sieve, so that the direction of the vibration printed to the sieves constantly becomes unproductive.

However, and as a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, at least on the part of the applicant, the existence of any other screening table or other similar invention that presents the same or similar technical, structural and constitutive characteristics is unknown. those presented by the one claimed here.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The screening table of flowers, stems, leaves, pollen and trichomes of plants that the invention proposes is thus configured as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, being the distinguishing details that distinguish it conveniently collected in the final claims that accompany to the present description.

More specifically, what the invention proposes, as noted above, is a plant screening table, especially applicable to the cannabis sector, whose configuration is specially designed to allow the separation of flowers, stems, leaves, pollen and trichomes from plants in different sections and compartments, since in it the materials go through the different sections that it presents to clear flowers, stems, leaves, the glands of cannabis resin or trichomes and pollen, so that they accumulate in said sections by sizes thanks to the different diameters of the perforations that they present and distance between them, allowing to obtain an optimal result in the screened product and its separated in a less time of work, by means of finer and exhaustive classifications in the flowers, leaves, stems, Trichomes and pollen.

Thus, the table is divided into three sections with different perforation diameters and distance between them, which allows the position and inclination of the tool to be fixed, and so that the speed of advance of the screened material is always the same in each screen, keeping each type of materials in one of the three sections. While with the traditional tools the conditions of the sieve prevent that it can adapt at any time to the necessary volume characteristics, both of the material that is treated and of the product that is desired to obtain, the screening table of the present invention offers an ease of handling and operation superior to the previous ones, allowing more comfortable postures in the person who uses it.

For this, according to a first characteristic of the invention, the different screens that make up the tool are mounted independently on the frame thereof, by means of anchors that allow the screens to be disassembled to exchange them according to the needs of sieving and separate of the materials in each case. This ability allows to select the sieves with the perforated or meshes that will be used for each product depending on the size of the materials directly obtained from the plant, its volume and the speed of advance required by the material to be screened.

More specifically, the table comprises two sieve boards fitted one above the other on a drawer-shaped base that collects the remains of the materials resulting from the sieve.

The first and upper board is a non-stick and perforated surface, preferably 1 centimeter thick, with perforations spread over its entire surface, which, also preferably, have dimensions 3 centimeters long and 0.60 centimeters wide , being separated from each other by a space of 1 centimeter.

And the second and lower board is a surface formed by a perimeter frame in which a tight and tight steel mesh is fastened, which preferably has dimensions of 150 microns. The mesh of this section can be changed to other meshes of different microns according to the needs of the material to be screened and the result of the product. To do this, preferably, it is attached to the frame by screwing.

The third section of the table forms a drawer with an anti-adherent surface whose purpose is to collect the remaining pollen and be collected later at the end of the sieve.

In spite of the perforations of the top board in the first screen, the material would not run if a movement from one part to another were not given to the table, whose effect is produced by the uniform vibratory movement exerted by a motor coupled to the effect to the structure of the table. This movement gradually passes the grain to the section or lower board, which has the steel mesh, preferably 150 microns as already said, and performs a similar function. In this way, what cannot happen between the screen mesh or holes is on the surface of each tabletop.

The material that has passed through the upper screen falls in the form of rain on the mesh of the lower board and this performs a similar function to the previous one, but with even narrower holes so that the leaves and stems are retained and the smaller remains fall to the drawer below where they rest and are stored.

The invention foresees the possibility of changing any of the two screening boards for others with different size in their perforation or filtering, which allows the tool to be adapted to the needs of the product in each case.

The described screening table of flowers, stems, leaves, pollen and trichomes of plants represents, therefore, an innovation of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now, reasons that together with its practical utility, provide it with sufficient foundation to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
