ABSTRACT:
A cable or chain actuated chip conveyor for moving chips along a trough is disclosed. A trough is employed to collect chips from various operations and a harpoon is employed to move the chips along the trough to a point where they are collected for disposal. The harpoon is shaped so that when moving in a second direction through a pile of chips it passes through the chips without displacing the chips in the direction of movement of movement of the harpoon, and when moving in a first direction the harpoon displaces the chips in the direction of movement of the harpoon. A cable or chain driven by a capstan is employed for urging the harpoon in the first direction and in the second direction.
