ABSTRACT:
A conveyor belt cleaner for cleaning one surface of a conveyor belt of length L and transverse width W includes a cleaner blade formed as an elongated strip of flexible elastomer, usually rubber or urethane. The blade, preferably of constant thickness, has a width much smaller than L and a length greater than W. The blade extends across the conveyor belt and has fasteners at its opposite ends. A tensioner, connected to one of the blade fasteners, applies a longitudinal tensioning force to the cleaner blade to maintain the cleaner blade in contact with the surface of the conveyor belt. In the preferred construction two tensioners are used, at opposite ends of the cleaner blade.
