Bulk material conveyor belt scraper and method of forming the same

摘要

A bulk material conveyor belt scraper comprises a base portion having a three-sided channel. The belt scraper also comprises a polymeric portion that protrudes outwardly from a corner of the three-sided channel. The three-sided channel of the belt scraper is adapted to engage with and partially encircles a support member having a portion with a square cross-section in a manner such that the support member is able to bias the belt scraper against a conveyor belt.

主权项

1. A bulk material conveyor belt scraper comprising a polymeric portion and a metal base portion, the belt scraper extending longitudinally along a longitudinal axis, the base portion comprising a main channel portion that forms two parallel opposing engagement surfaces and an intermediate engagement surface perpendicular to the opposing engagement surfaces, the opposing engagement surfaces and the intermediate engagement surface being parallel to the longitudinal axis, the opposing engagement surfaces and the intermediate engagement surface defining a main channel region therebetween and being configured and adapted to collectively contact three sides of a square portion of a support member in a manner preventing the belt scraper from rotating about the support member when such a support member is positioned at least partially in the main channel region, the base portion also comprising a protruding portion that protrudes from the main channel portion and away from the main channel region, the protruding portion being configured and adapted to straddle a corner of the square portion of the support member when the opposing engagement surfaces and the intermediate engagement surface of the base portion contact the support member.
