  • Patent number: 6347698
    Abstract: An extruded brush plate for a conveyor is provided with slots preformed in the brush plate for attachment of supports, vibrators and peripheral walls. The brush plates are then cut to the desired length, by making only a single cut across the width of the brush plates. T-slots for attaching the vibrators and the bolt slots for attaching the peripheral walls are provided along the entire length of the brush plate such that when the brush plate is cut to any length, the vibrators may be attached where desired. Also the bolt slots will be accessible from the end of the brush plate, so that the peripheral walls may be attached. The T-slots are designed to accept T-nuts. The vibrator is attached to an interface plate. The interface plate includes threaded holes to accept a bolt. The T-nut is threaded onto the bolt and the T-nut is slipped into the T-slot so that the vibrator is attached to the brush plate.
