Abstract: A weighbelt feeder comprising a pair of metallic side rails along which moves a conveyor belt for transporting a material across the apparatus. The apparatus further includes a plurality of sheet metal frames spaced longitudinally apart on the pair of metallic side rails for supporting a mechanical load on the side rails. Each of the plurality of sheet metal frames comprises a support arm and a plurality of cross-arms cantilevered on the support arm and extending between the pair of metallic side rails. The support arm is fixed to a first side rail of the pair of metallic side rails and the free end of at least one of the cross-arms is fixed to a second side rail of the pair of metallic side trails. The apparatus also includes a metallic outer structure supporting the plurality of sheet metal frames and binding the frames into a unitary rigid construction.

Abstract: An end cap comprises a base and at least one finger extending in a first direction from the base. A plurality of sets of flexible fins can be provided, each set of fins comprising first and second fins extending generally from the finger in an orientation that is generally orthogonal to the first direction. Each set of fins can be being positioned longitudinally along an axis oriented generally in the first direction wherein the first and second fins are movable independently of each other. The first and second fins are resiliently displaceable and movable generally in the first direction. The first and second fins can be resiliently displaceable. The end cap can be used in association with a construction member whereby the finger is inserted into the channel. More than one such finger can be provided.

Abstract: An eavestrough system utilizes a two-piece hook wherein a small clip is positioned and secured on a fascia and thereafter assembled eavestroughing and eavestrough hooks are conveniently attached thereto, preferably by means of a sliding snap fit relationship. The eavestrough hooks are slidable on the eavestrough section and can be preassembled on the eavestrough at ground level. This, in combination with the fast engagement with the clips, simplifies installation. The invention is also directed to an improved eavestrough hanger having resilient spring arms.
