Cleaning apparatus (1) includes a tubular device (2) which has a longitudinally extending slot (3) and input orifices (4 and 5) at opposite ends of the device. Screw threaded regions (6 and 7) of the tube (2) are arranged to allow respective hose connectors (8 and 9) of a supply hose (10) to be sealingly connected to respective ends of the device (2). The supply hose (10) has arms (11, 12) which emanate from a common source supply region (13) which, in turn, is connected in use to a fluid supply means (14). The fluid supply means (14) is preferably arranged to supply high pressure air to the device. The apparatus (1) is fixed adjacent to a load carrying surface of a conveyor with the slot (3) being disposed such that air flowing out thereof is directed at the load carrying surface. In use, the supply means is caused to supply air at high pressure through each arm of the supply hose (10) and, in turn, air flows through the input orifices (4, 5). Subsequently air flows out of the output orifice towards the load carrying surface of the conveyor and debris is removed thereby. |
