  • Conveyor scraper and mounting of scraper blade
    Patent number: 6095318
    Abstract: A conveyor scraper includes a support structure and a scraper blade which is mounted to the support structure by a mounting element so that it is movable to a limited extent relative to the support structure. A biasing element acts between the support structure and the scraper blade to ensure contact with an adjacent conveyor. A mounting element that mounts the scraper blade to the support structure includes a zone of weakness that permits the scraper blade to deflect laterally in the event of impact by an irregularity on the passing conveyor belt surface.
