Abstract: A screening apparatus for granules or the like material comprises a housing, wherein a frame structure is arranged which is rotatable about a main axis. The frame structure supports a screen drum which is rotatable by means of a shaft arranged eccentrically with respect to the main axis. In order to readjust the screening apparatus from screening one material and to screen another material which needs another contribution of the centrifugal force from the planetary movement of the screen drum, the eccentrically of the screen drum with respect to the main axis is variable.

Abstract: A screening apparatus for grains comprises a housing, wherein a support structure is arranged which is rotatable by means of a main shaft. The support carries a screen drum rotatably mounted upon a planet shaft arranged eccentrically with respect to the main shaft. The support, furthermore, carries vanes engaging a delivery channel for the screened goods. In order to achieve a comparatively small resulting centrifugal force effect upon the material fed to the screen drum, while maintaining optimal peripheral speeds as regards the delivery vanes and the speed of the screen drum, the screen drum is arranged with an eccentricity with respect to the main shaft which is smaller that the greatest radius of the screen drum.
