Abstract: In the method of the invention for conveying bulk goods by means of a conveying device comprising a conveying channel and at least two conveying elements (266, 269) arranged loosely in the conveying channel, the conveying elements are mechanically driven in the conveying direction in a first section of the conveying channel, before bulk goods are fed into the conveying channel in a second section of the conveying channel. The bulk goods are conveyed by movement of the conveying elements along the conveying direction in a third section of the conveying channel, wherein in this third section of the conveying channel the first conveying element (269) is pressed by the second conveying element (266) and/or the bulk goods through the conveying channel in the conveying direction. The invention also comprises a conveying device for carrying out this method.

Abstract: Conveying element for conveying bulk goods includes a disk element including an upper side, a lower side and a side surface along a circumference of the disk element. A shank includes an upper end and a lower end. A shank head is located at the upper end. The lower end is connected to the upper side of the disk element and extends through the disk element up to the lower side. A shank head receiving element is arranged on one of the lower side of the disk element or the lower end. The side surface of the disk element is inclined at least in sections relative to a longitudinal axis of the shank.

Abstract: The conveying element (201) for conveying bulk goods according to the invention comprises a disk element (203) having an upper side (203a), a lower side (203b) and a side surface (203c) along the circumference of the disk element, and a shank (204) which has at its upper end (204a) a shank head (205) and which is centrally connected at its lower end (204b) to the upper side of the disk element. The conveying element comprises a means (206) for receiving the shank head at the lower side of the disk element. The side surface of the disk element is inclined at least in sections relative to the longitudinal axis of the shank.

Abstract: The invention relates to a screen for a screening machine for screening a product into two fractions. To avoid detrimental effects to the quality of the product due to damage at the screen mesh of a screen (9), the screen is provided with a metal layer, in particular in the manner of a conduction path, wherein the electrical resistance of said layer is measured and wherein changes in the resistance indicate damages.
