| 20110226583 | LOW PROFILE TELESCOPIC CONVEYOR ASSEMBLY - A telescopic or non-telescopic conveyor system having a feed section operatively associated with the conveyor system for feeding materials to one end of the conveyor system is provided. The conveyor system is pivotably mounted to the feed section to pivot said telescopic conveyor system to pivotably rotate relative to said feed section. In another embodiment, the feed section of the conveyor includes a frame to which is attached one or more movable baffles for moving material which has been collected at the sides of the feed section to permit displacement of the same upon lateral movement of the feed section. | 09-22-2011 |
| 20110152021 | QUICK RELEASE MECHANISM FOR TELESCOPIC CONVEYOR - Disclosed is a release mechanism suitable for releasing and disengaging a chain drive means associated with a drive mechanism for a movable extendable frame assembly. In the arrangement, the drive mechanism includes a drive, a wheel assembly and a drive chain associated with the drive to drive wheels associated with the frame assembly. The mechanism also includes a quick release for permitting the chain drive to be released and disengaged from driving the wheels. The quick release has a movable support mounting the drive, and in which the support is movable about a fixed point to raise and lower the drive from a lower chain tensioned position to an upper chain release position. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110139576 | EXTENDABLE AND RETRACTABLE AUXILLIARY AXLE FOR TRANSPORTABLE CONVEYOR SYSTEM - This invention provides an improvement relating to an extendable and retractable auxiliary axle suitable for supporting an end section of a telescopic conveyor system having rotatable wheel assemblies. The improvement provides for an axle assembly for a conveyor system where the axle is a transversely extending axle positioned forwardly of the rotatable wheel assemblies on the conveyor system. There is provided an axle frame operatively associated with the axle for mounting the axle relative to the conveyor system. Actuatable means mounted on the frame are provided for displacing the axle between a first raised position and a second lowered position; also provided are means for actuating the actuatable means to permit the actuatable means to raise and lower the auxiliary axle as desired. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20090321224 | Conveyor Belt Cover For Bulk Material Handling Systems - A protective cover for deployment within the interior of a conveyor truss of a conveyor belt-driven bulk material handler. The protective cover comprises an apical support member configured for resilient attachment to an upper, central truss member of the conveyor truss such that the apical support member hangs above the conveyor belt when the cover is deployed. The cover comprises a pair of parallel support members, each configured for fixed attachment to opposite lateral conveyor truss members. The apical support member and the parallel support members together form a triangular arrangement of support members within the conveyor truss when the cover is deployed. Also provided is a rectangular sheet of protective material having a means for attachment of opposite sides thereof to a corresponding member of the pair of parallel support members. The rectangular sheet is centrally stretched over the apical support member to form a triangular cover structure disposed above the conveyor belt when the cover is deployed. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20090013617 | UNDERCARRIAGE FOR A TELESCOPIC FRAME - A telescopic undercarriage for raising and lowering a frame. The undercarriage includes a base section having a pair of parallel base legs extending from a first end to a second end of the base section, the base section including a first plurality of braces extending between respective upper surfaces of the base legs and a second plurality of braces extending between respective lower surfaces of the base legs, the base legs, first plurality of braces and second plurality of braces collectively providing an elongate central base section passage. The undercarriage also includes an extendable section slidably disposed within the base section passage and having opposed legs, a drive system for extending and retracting the extendable section relative to the base section. | 01-15-2009 |
