Abstract: The system and method for using flights and fasteners with compact-grid conveyor belts. The J-fasteners of rivet-type fasteners secure angled and vented metal flights to compact-grid conveyor belts. The fasteners attach a flight via embossed areas spaced to avoid guide and drive pulleys. Specially adapted sprockets are also used to accommodate the attachment of flights using fasteners.

Abstract: A cooling blanket assembly includes a substantially waterproof and flexible housing having a top wall, a bottom wall and a peripheral wall extending between and attached to the top and bottom walls. The housing has an inner surface an outer surface. The housing has a substantially rectangular shape with a length generally between 3 feet and 5 feet and a width generally between 3 feet and 5 feet. A plurality of ammonium nitrate crystals is positioned within the housing. A plurality of containers is positioned within the housing. Each of the containers has water therein. At least one rigid plate is attached to the inner surface of the top wall. The containers may be selectively broken on the plate such that the water contained therein saturates adjacently positioned portions of the ammonium nitrate.
