A guide for conveying articles, comprising:
- a first and a second element for guiding and/or routing the articles along a transport path, the elements both comprising substantially planar portions;
- and
- a mounting assembly for mounting the first and the second elements to a support bar, the support bar being connected to a frame of a conveyor, wherein the mounting assembly is adapted to force the first and the second elements together, wherein the planar portions of the first and the second elements are adapted to clamp the support bar there between.
A guide for conveying articles, comprising:
- a first element for guiding an article along a transport path, said first element having a first planar portion;
- a second element for guiding an article along a transport path, said second element having a second planar portion facing said first planar portion;
- and
- a mounting assembly for mounting the first and the second elements to a support bar, the support bar being connected to a frame of a conveyor, said mounting assembly urging the first and the second elements together, wherein the planar portions of the first and the second elements clamp the support bar there between.
A guide for conveying articles, comprising:
- a first element for guiding an article along a transport path, said first element having a first roller module disposed on one side of said first element;
- a second element for guiding an article along a transport path, said second element being disposed adjacent an opposing side of said first element;
- and
- a mounting assembly for mounting the first and the second elements to a support bar, the support bar being interposed between said first and second elements, said mounting assembly urging the first and the second elements together to clamp the support bar there between.
