Abstract: A driver unit for a conveyor is disclosed. The driver unit includes a drive finger, driving conveyed material, and a holding body for positioning the drive finger on the rotary conveyor. The holding body has a socket into which an end section of the drive finger can be inserted. Furthermore, a securing element is used to secure the drive finger to the socket, whereby the securing element includes a section arranged eccentric to an axis of the securing element to hold the drive finger in the socket.

Abstract: A cover for turbines or pumps, which is substantially less expensive than a cover having a cast construction. The cover is made of welded metal plates in a shape which generally corresponds to that of Kaplan type turbines, pumps or the like, and includes a number of thick walled rings and shells having a conical shape or envelope.The cover comprises a flat radial ring which is supported between the outer covering of the machine and a first, conical, axially-extending shell which concentrically surrounds the shaft of the machine, and tapers narrower toward the runner of the machine which is rotated by the shaft. A second shell is also conical, defines a lesser conical angle than the first shell, and extends from an exterior region of the first shell and toward the runner. A radial bearing is mounted on the first shell for supporting the shaft.

A second shell, also conical, defines a lesser conical angle than the first shell. It extends from the exterior of the first shell and axially toward the runner, surrounding the shaft, and is disposed for directing radially inward water flow axially toward the runner. At least one bearing is mounted between the flat ring and the shaft. The flat ring and the first and second shells are sheet metal and are welded together.
