A conveyor belt cleaning assembly includes a first rail member, a second rail member, and a locking mechanism for removably securing the first rail member to the second rail member. The first rail member includes a first base wall, a first leg extending from a first end of the first base wall, a second leg extending from an opposite second end of the first base wall, a first bottom retaining wall, and a first side retaining wall defining a first inner taper portion extending inwardly toward the second leg. The second rail member includes a second base wall, an inner wall, an opposite outer wall, a second bottom retaining wall, and a second side retaining wall defining a second inner taper portion extending inwardly toward the inner wall. The second inner taper portion is a mirror image of the first inner taper portion.

A cleaning device for a residue contaminated conveyor belt includes a roller arranged below the conveyor belt such that the lateral surface thereof contacts a lower strand of the conveyor belt, and a cleaning belt is arranged below the roller. The lateral surface of the roller contacts an upper strand of the cleaning belt, which is tilted relative to a main conveying direction at the upper strand relative to a longitudinal roller axis. A dispensing device on and/or above the cleaning belt feeds a solvent thereon. The dispensing device and the cleaning belt are relatively arranged such that the solvent from the cleaning belt is conveyed by a conveying movement of the cleaning belt into a region in which the cleaning belt contacts the roller, which via a rotational movement, at least partially picks up the solvent located on the cleaning belt and dispenses it onto the conveyor belt.

Systems, methods and apparatus are provided for scraping material from a conveyor belt. Some embodiments include primary and secondary scraper assemblies.

A scraper system for a conveyor system having a conveyor belt and a method for attaching a scraper module to a scraper system. The scraper system includes a system carrier and scraper modules for contacting the conveyor belt. The scraper modules are attached to a module carrier that extends on the system carrier parallel to the system carrier. The module carrier is releasably attached to the system carrier by a clamping assembly for applying a clamping force in the transverse direction to the system carrier. The clamping assembly has a clamping rod that runs parallel to the system carrier and applies the clamping force by wedge action.

In a belt cleaner 10 having a plurality of bar-like rubber elastic bodies 20 each having a rectangular cross section and provided in line in a groove 40a of a stand 40 installed in a width direction of a returning-side belt 30 one of springs 22 is provided to a fixed-side end 20a of each of the bar-like rubber elastic bodies 20 through a corresponding one of fixing axes 21, one of screws 62 is provided to each of flanges 44 provided to each end of the stand 40, one of thrust bolts 60 is rotatably attached to each of the screws 62, and the bar-like rubber elastic bodies 20 provided in line are retained in a horizontal direction in a state of being vertically pressed by the springs 22 at an adequate pressure by means of the thrust bolts 60 threaded into the screws 62.

A belt and a belt conveyor are provided for transporting particulate material and especially oilseeds up the belt conveyor. The belt conveyor can include an intake end having a hopper, a discharge end, a body extending between the intake end and the discharge end and a belt. The belt travels along a travel path in the belt conveyor; the belt traveling through the hopper, up an upper run in the body to the discharge end, down a return run in the body, and back through the hopper. The belt can have a top surface having pairs of adjacent ridges provided on the top surface, each ridge having a pair of arms extending from a point, in a travel direction of the belt, wherein each pair of adjacent ridges define a v-channel on the top surface of the belt.
