摘要

A device for cleaning a conveyor belt comprises a rotatable annular scraper blade disposed below the belt, and inclined slightly to the plane of the belt so that one edge of the blade scrapes against the belt. The scraper is mounted on a carriage with side members having slots therein for adjustment of the position of the scraper relative to the belt and a worm device is disclosed for retrieving scraped material from below the scraper.
