A conveyor comprises an endless belt and a belt return device. The endless belt comprises an upper run and a lower run and is configured to convey conveying material in a conveying direction. An intermediate space is defined between the upper run and the lower run. The belt return device facilitates transitioning of the endless belt between the lower run and the upper run. The endless belt defines at least one passage opening which allows the exit of at least a portion of an intermediate space material which is formed by a portion of the conveying material which has reached the intermediate space. At least a portion of the endless belt comprises a conveyor track and a passage track. The passage track defines the at least one passage opening. The conveyor track and the passage track are arranged side by side in the conveying direction.

A conveyor pulley design incorporates a plow design that forces tramp material away from the belt and discharges material down and away from the belt, bearings, take-up assembly, maintenance equipment and personnel. The pulley uses a modular construction that allows for optimized manufacture and inventory processes and reduces the materials cost in the pulley.

A clearing apparatus for removing bulk materials from an area with a low vertical clearance including an operator vehicle and an auger conveyor coupled to the operator vehicle. The auger conveyor is pivotable vertically in relation to the operator vehicle and rotatable substantially 90 degrees about a vertical axis of the auger conveyor, whereby the direction of rotation of the auger and the direction and pitch of the auger thread conveys material from the area with low vertical clearance toward the operator vehicle.
