Chain conveyor and drive sprocket for same
A conveyor assembly for moving material includes a plurality of chains each defining a longitudinal axis, and a plurality of flights coupled to the at least two chains and configured to contact and move the material in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axes. Each of the plurality of flights extends along a central axis oriented oblique with respect to the longitudinal axes. Each flight includes a first portion offset from a second portion in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axes.

Cambelt, in particular a cambelt suitable for agricultural machinery
Cam belt, particularly for agricultural machinery, produced from a polymer provided with reinforcement inserts, has cams on the inner side of the cam belt that are used to drive cam belt. A first flank faces in the running direction of cam belt and a second flank faces in opposite direction. Cams are spaced apart from one another by gaps in a predefined division, and gaps are delimited by first flank and second flank of two adjoining cams and a base which connects two flanks. During operation of cam belt carrier of a cam wheel resting against second flank of one of adjoining cams and against the base of a gap engage with the gaps. On outer side of belt, functional elements are fixed by a fastener which from inner side of the belt passes through the cam belt and the functional elements via at least one through hole.

TENSIONING SYSTEM AND DRIVE POSITIONING ON A CONVEYOR ASSEMBLY
A conveyor assembly includes a frame having an intake end and a discharge end, the intake end and the discharge end defining a material flow direction therebetween. The conveyor assembly also includes a conveyor supported on the frame and configured to move material along the material flow direction. The conveyor assembly also includes a first non-driven idler shaft coupled to the conveyor at the intake end, a drive shaft coupled to the conveyor at the discharge end, and a tensioning system coupled to the drive shaft and configured to move the drive shaft relative to the idler shaft when the tensioning system is activated.
CHIP CONVEYOR AND MACHINE TOOL
A chip conveyor includes: a cover body; a guide plate configured to guide chips, which are conveyed inside the cover body, so as to be directed from a chip receiving position toward a chip discharging position; a case attached to the cover body and having an internal space provided therein; and a float switch configured to detect, based on a coolant flowing from inside the cover body into the internal space, that a liquid level of the coolant inside the cover body is equal to or greater than a prescribed liquid level. The cover body includes a first space and a second space that are partitioned from each other by the guide plate. The cover body is provided with: a first opening allowing communication between the first space and the internal space; and a second opening allowing communication between the second space and the internal space.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TENSIONING A CONVEYOR IN A MINING SYSTEM
A tensioning system for a conveyor element of a conveyor. The tensioning system including a hydraulic apparatus, a locking plate, and a take-up bar. The hydraulic apparatus includes a cylinder having an extendible piston. The take-up bar is coupled to the cylinder and coupled to a shaft of the conveyor. The take-up bar moves the shaft of the conveyor in a forward direction away from the centerline of the conveyor when overcoming a locking force from the locking plate.
