ABSTRACT:
In a belt conveyor system utilizing a floating sealing skirt to prevent spillage of bulk materials from the belt, a plurality of mechanisms is used to exert a downward pressure along the top of the sealing skirt. This pressure forces the sealing skirt against the belt, and-thus maintains the seal between the sealing skirt and belt along the entire length of the skirt.
