Patent

CA 2440005

A vapor-liquid contact tray is provided with at least two tray panels that are releaseably together along their overlapped margins by a locking hinged joint. The joint is formed by fingers (36) in one tray panel that extend through slots (46) located in the other tray panel. Offset bends (38, 42) are formed in the tray panels so that the overlapped margins do not extend above the top surface of the tray. The hinged joint (34) includes a locking mechanism (50) that prevents lateral separation of the tray panels once they have been releaseably joined together. The locking mechanism is formed by a downturned locking flange (50) positioned between the fingers (36) in one of the tray panels and extending downwardly into and, preferably through, openings located in the overlapped margin of the other tray panel.

L'invention concerne un plateau de mise en contact vapeur-liquide comportant au moins deux panneaux reliés de manière libérable, le long de leurs bordures se chevauchant, au moyen d'un élément de liaison articulé assurant un blocage. Cet élément de liaison articulé est formé par des doigts (36) qui sont situés dans un des panneaux et qui s'étendent à travers des fentes (46) situées dans l'autre panneau. Des parties coudées (38, 42), décalées, sont formées dans les panneaux de sorte que les bordures se chevauchant ne dépassent pas de la surface supérieure du plateau. Cet élément de liaison articulé (34) comprend un mécanisme de blocage (50) qui empêche les panneaux de se séparer par le côté, une fois reliés de manière libérable. Ce mécanisme de blocage est formé par un épaulement de blocage (50) orienté vers le bas, positionné entre les doigts (36) dans un des panneaux et s'étendant vers le bas de manière à pénétrer dans des ouvertures, de préférence de manière à traverser lesdites ouvertures situées dans la bordure de l'autre panneau.
