ABSTRACT:
For slat conveyors in which transverse slats are supported on closed loop carrying straps which circulate in the conveying direction, there is the need to removably secure the slats to the conveying straps. Fixing means which allow the slat to be removable, such as nut and bolt pairs hitherto have been impractical due to the inaccessibility in the use of the lower one of the pair, i.e. from below the conveying strap (once it is installed in the conveyor). By now forming the nut as a threaded nipple embedded in the conveying strap the need for access to the nut is obviated. The nipple receives a fixing screw passed through the slat. The nipple is arranged to be rotationally locked relative to the strap, optionally by ribs. A pair of nipples and a tooth for engagement with a tooth-engaging-roller, may be formed integrally by injection moulding techniques and self-tapping screws may be employed.
