ABSTRACT:
Cleaning unit for a work transfer belt having a stationary top support frame to which a box-like lower main body is attached that contains belt cleaning devices. The top support frame provides an upper closure for the main body and cooperates therewith to form spaced entrance and exit openings isolating sections of the belt feeding through the unit. A manifold mounted in the main body directs washing fluid on the belt as it moves through the unit. The main body has a removable module supporting magnets for removing metallic particles and a squeegee unit for removing moisture and foreign matter from the belt. A squeegee mounting system keeps the squeegee blades in spring loaded contact with the belt. A wear indicator connected to the squeegee mounting system exhibits operational wear of the squeegee blades. The module with the squeegee and magnet aboard can be removed from the main body for refurbishment of module mounted components at a remote location.
