For shallow channels, curved bar screens with bars formed as segments of a circle and installed concave to the direction of the flow are available. The rakes revolve slowly around a horizontal shaft located in the center axis of the curvature of the screen. After passing the top of the bars, the raking plate contacts a metal rocking apron which retains the screenings on the plate until it clears the apron.
