A bucket elevator adjustable guide system for efficiently transferring and dispensing particulate material from a bucket elevator includes a head housing connected to the bucket elevator, an adjustable guide member disposed therein, an extendable and retractable adjustment member connected to the guide member, a remotely controllable drive unit coupled to the adjustment member, and a remote control. The head housing receives buckets of particulate material to be dispensed from the bucket elevator. The guide member extends in a curved arc over the buckets to engage and guide discharged particulate material into a discharge chute. Remote controls enable the drive unit to be manually or automatically controlled to cause the adjustment member to extend or retract to adjust the position and configuration of the guide member and affect the transfer and dispensing of the particulate material without physically accessing the adjustment member.

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.

A conveying unit of a textile machine has an endless circulating and drivable conveying element, the conveying element having a conveying area on an outer side thereof to receive and convey textile material. Opposite side walls are disposed to hold the textile material in the conveying area in a transverse direction of the conveying element. A sealing device is arranged between each of the side walls and the conveying element such that an interior space enclosed by the conveying element is at least partially sealed with respect to the textile material. The sealing device includes a sealing element connected to the conveying element so as to extend transversely away from and above the outer side of the conveying element.

A tube conveyor including a tube and a conveyor belt. The tube has a bore extending therethrough. The conveyor belt is movable through the tube bore. The conveyor belt includes a base and at least one first longitudinal cog. The base has a first edge and a surface. The at least one first longitudinal cog extends from the base surface. The at least one first longitudinal cog is oriented substantially parallel to the first edge.

A sealing device for sealing the side regions of a conveyor belt having a sequence of sealing elements being arranged on either side of the longitudinal axis of the conveyor belt. The sealing elements are spaced apart and rest on the surface of the conveyor belt in a resilient manner, the individual sealing elements being arranged at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the conveyor belt and pointing in the direction of movement of the conveyor belt by their inner end. The sealing elements consist of strip-like guide ledges.

A wear-resistant ceramic liner (7) with snap-lock fixing arrangement (1) comprises of a plurality of male parts (2) positioned on mother plate (3) and a plurality of corresponding female parts (5) formed on liner (7). The external contours of the male parts (2) match exactly the Internal contours of their corresponding female parts (5). There is a snap fit between these two parts when the male part is inserted into the corresponding female part to form the snap-lock fixing arrangement. The male part (2) is either integral to said mother plate (3) or welded to it. The ceramic liner is either a square ceramic tiles arrangement or an interlocked type arrangement of ceramic tiles.

A magnetic fastener and wear liner combination for use with material processing equipment for processing aggregate material, where a reverse taper counter bore hole of the wear liner is made to couple and decouple from a magnetic fastener which has a urethane cap, with a urethane cap reverse taper side. The magnetic fasteners are re-useable on replacement liners as the liners need replacement. The attachment and detachment of the magnetic fasteners is made to be simple and secure.

A conveyor comprises a first conveyor section and a second conveyor section that is foldable with respect to the first conveyor section. Skirting is movable into and out of a deployed state in which it extends along the second conveyor section. A skirting support is coupled to the skirting and is movable into and out of a deployed state in which it holds the skirting in the deployed state. Actuating means is provided for moving the skirting support. The skirting is deformable or foldable so that it does not have to be removed or fitted when the conveyor is folded or deployed, and is less susceptible to damage.

A shock-absorbing conveyor boom includes a proximal portion and a distal portion, hingedly connected to the proximal portion, the proximal and distal portions supporting a laterally flexible endless conveyor belt. The distal portion is pivotal in a generally horizontal plane, and is biased toward longitudinal alignment with the proximal portion, whereby physical shock applied to the distal portion can be absorbed by lateral deflection of the distal portion.

A bucket elevator adjustable guide system for efficiently transferring and dispensing particulate material from a bucket elevator includes a head housing connected to the bucket elevator, an adjustable guide member disposed therein, an extendable and retractable adjustment member connected to the guide member, a remotely controllable drive unit coupled to the adjustment member, and a remote control. The head housing receives buckets of particulate material to be dispensed from the bucket elevator. The guide member extends in a curved arc over the buckets to engage and guide discharged particulate material into a discharge chute. Remote controls enable the drive unit to be manually or automatically controlled to cause the adjustment member to extend or retract to adjust the position and configuration of the guide member and affect the transfer and dispensing of the particulate material without physically accessing the adjustment member.
