Abstract: A conveyor belt comprising an endless belt of a flexible material, and having an upper carrying run and a lower run (1) in which at least one stripper device is provided. The stripper device comprises a frame (2) including a plurality of stripper bars which are mounted on the frame. The stripper bars bear their free edges against the upper face of a run of the conveyor belt, and are formed by a V-shaped bar (4) with relatively short legs (4', 4"). The V-shaped bar has its tip upstream in relation to the direction of movement of the belt. The stripper device also includes a plurality of elongate bars (5, 6) which substantially form extensions of the legs of the V-shaped bar (4). These bars (5, 6) are placed further inwards in relation to the respective legs (4', 4") of the V-shaped bar (4) in such a manner that neighbouring ends of the legs of the V-shaped bar and of the elongate bars overlap.

Abstract: A scraper device for fitting to an endless conveyor belt or similar device, comprising of a set of scraper elements (1, 1') supported by an elongate carrier member. The scraper elements (1, 1') are mounted on at least one bar-like member (2, 2') which extends parallel to the carrier member and rests on the upper face of the carrier member. The bar like member is fastened relative to the carrier member by detachable fasteners (8, 9; 10, 11, 12) which are mounted at the ends of the bar-like member. Preferably the fasteners are formed by at least one pin (9) projecting from a side edge of the carrier beam (7) and at least one recess formed in the bar-like member (2, 2') in which recess the pin is received and by an upstandiong flange (10) which is provided with an opening. The upstanding flange lies next to a flange formed on the carrier beam which is also provided with an opening. A securing fastener is inserted through the respective coinciding openings in the flanges.
