Abstract
An accessory assembly (1) of toothed belts (9), toothed conveyor belts (9a) or portions thereof, comprising a base piece (2), a first piece (3) and a second piece (4) with respectively a first, a second and a fourth coupling part (21, 31, 41). The first and the second coupling part (21, 31) are complementary to one another so that the first piece (3) is couplable above the base piece (2) in one or more predetermined positions and the fourth and the first coupling part (41, 21) are complementary to one another so that the second piece (4) is couplable above the base piece (2) in one or more predetermined positions. The first piece (3) comprises a third coupling part (32) complementary to the fourth coupling part (41) and which faces in an opposite direction to the second coupling part (31).
Claims14
An accessory assembly for toothed belts, toothed conveyor belts or portions thereof comprising a base, wherein the accessory assembly comprises:
- a base piece, for contacting the base of a toothed belt, of a toothed conveyor belt or of a portion thereof, comprising a first coupling part;
- a first piece comprising a second coupling part;
- wherein:
- the first coupling part and the second coupling part are complementary to one another so that the first piece is couplable above the base piece in one or more predetermined positions;
- wherein the accessory assembly comprises a second piece comprising a fourth coupling part and wherein:
- the fourth coupling part and the first coupling part are complementary to one another so that the second piece is couplable above the base piece in one or more predetermined positions;
- the first piece comprises a third coupling part complementary to the fourth coupling part and which faces in an opposite direction to the second coupling part and the second piece is couplable above the first piece in one or more predetermined positions;
- and
- the first coupling part is coupled to the second coupling part so that the first piece is coupled above the base piece and the fourth coupling part is coupled to the third coupling part so that the second piece is coupled above the first piece.
A method for realising an accessory assembly, having an established height, for toothed belts, toothed conveyor belts or portions thereof comprising a base, the method comprising steps of:
- providing
- a base piece, for contacting the base of a toothed belt, of a toothed conveyor belt or of a portion thereof, comprising a first coupling part,
- a plurality of first pieces, each comprising a second coupling part and
- a plurality of second pieces, each comprising a fourth coupling part and being without a coupling part on a side opposite to the fourth coupling part;
- selecting the pieces, from among the plurality of the second piece and the plurality of the first piece, to be located above the base piece so as to obtain the established height when coupled;
- coupling the selected pieces to one another and the base piece so as to form an accessory assembly having an established height;
- wherein the first coupling part and the second coupling part are complementary to one another so that the first piece is couplable above the base piece in one or more predetermined positions;
- wherein the fourth coupling part and the first coupling part are complementary to one another so that the second piece is couplable above the base piece in one or more predetermined positions;
- wherein the first piece comprises a third coupling part complementary to the fourth coupling part and which faces in an opposite direction to the second coupling part and the second piece is couplable above the first piece in one or more predetermined positions;
- wherein in the step of selecting the pieces, the piece furthest away from the base piece is selected from among the plurality of second pieces.
