ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a material handling system including a loading conveyor, a material processing conveyor, a cutting instrument, and a water table operably associated with the material processing conveyor. The material processing conveyor includes an endless belt having first and second sprocket chains and a plurality of support members extending therebetween. The ends of the support members are connected to the corresponding sprocket chains via U-shaped connectors. The water table is maintained in the storage position while the processing conveyor is operating. Once movement of the processing conveyor has ceased, the water table is raised to an operating position so that the by-products of the cutting operation will be collected therein. The U-shaped connectors receive the side walls of the water table E. The U-shaped connectors obviate the need for elaborate end wall systems which are extremely expensive and time consuming to operate.
