ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for preloading a scraper blade against a conveyor belt in a conveyor cleaning system. The apparatus includes a blade support adapted to mount a scraper blade for engagement with a conveyor belt, a torsion member including a first end segment spaced from a second end segment along an axis, and a stop engageable with the second end segment to maintain the torsion member in a preloaded condition with the second end segment rotated about the axis relative to the first end segment to generate a preload between a scraper blade mounted on the blade support and a conveyor belt. In one form, the first end segment has an essentially polygonal cross section engageable with the blade support to restrict rotation of the first end segment relative to the blade support.
