A conveyor chain and horizontally oriented guide wheel having a hub, an outer wheel rotatable about the hub and a bearing race between said hub and said outer wheel. An oiling gap, the top opening of which is located radially inwardly of the bearing race, extends outwardly and downwardly and opens into said bearing race, such that a direct downward path to the bearings is eliminated. The hub and the inside of the outer wheel have opposed frustroconical surfaces which define a frustroconical path from the top wheel surface oiling gap opening to the wheel bearings. The guide wheel also includes a blow out gap on the bottom side which is formed by a blow out path which becomes wider than the bearing race as it proceeds downwardly to its opening at the bottom of the wheel, making it easier for debris to be blown out of the bearings either from air blown down through the oiling gap at the top or blown up from the blow out gap at the bottom.

A dog link for a sharp chain conveyor with at least one spike to impale into a log, where at least one forwardly and/or upwardly facing spike on each dog link is combined with at least one rearwardly facing spike and/or barb disposed on a spike to insure that wherever the log is impaled, the dog counteracts any forward surge and more securely impales the log.

The present disclosure provides a modular belt having two or more longitudinal belt sections. Each belt section includes a traction element having a cord and a plurality of drive elements attached to the cord. The drive elements are spaced apart along a length of the cord. The belt section further includes a plurality of belt plates. Each belt plate is removably attached to a corresponding drive element of the traction element. The belt section may comprise at least one additional traction element to which each belt plate is attached. In this way, each belt plate may be attached to two or more traction elements. The modular belt includes two or more connectors, wherein each connector is configured to longitudinally couple two belt sections in order to form the modular belt as an endless belt.

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.
