ABSTRACT:
A drive means for a sampler such as is used to collect ore, slurries or other material discharged from a conveyor or other material transport device. The sampler includes a frame on which a support carriage having a cutter to sample the material as the cutter moves back and forth across the end of the conveyor is mounted. The drive means for moving the sampler carriage includes two closely, spaced, parallel rollers journaled for rotation in the cutter and arranged to move with respect to the frame. A belt attached to one end of the frame passes a first roller, around the outside of a more distant second roller, then back between the rollers, around the first roller and past the second roller to be secured to the frame.
The belt preferably is connected to the frame by a belt adjustment mechanism. Reversible power means are arranged to drive one roller and to thereby reciprocally move the support carriage with respect to the belt and frame.
