Abstract
A wear member for use in quarry chutes and the like utilizes a plurality of wear strips with a layer of resilient material therebetween. The resilient material may be a natural rubber or synthetic material as urethane. A bottom mounting plate engages a T-shaped base plate mounted to the chute to hold the wear member in an array on the chute surface.
Claims19
A wear member for a chute wherein heavy abrasive material such as quarry material is conveyed, comprising a mounting plate, a least one rigid wear-resistant member affixed to said mounting plate and extending longitudinally thereof in the direction of movement of material transported thereover wherein said member is a steel plate;
- a layer of resilient material affixed to said mounting plate and being coextensive therewith, said layer having a depth substantially equal to the height of said rigid member, wherein said resilient material is selected from the group consisting of urethane and rubber, and wherein said rigid member extends normal to said mounting plate and through said layer of resilient material;
- and means affixed beneath said mounting plate for attaching said mounting plate to said chute such that said rigid member and said resilient material are fully exposed to said abrasive material.
A wear resistant lining for a chute used to convey quarry materials comprising a plurality of wear members detachable affixed to and overlying an associated plurality of base members affixed to and overlying the conveying surface of a chute each wear member of said plurality of wear members including a mounting plate engageable with one base member of said plurality of base members, a layer of resilient material affixed to and coextensive with said mounting plate, and at least one wear resistant rigid member affixed to said mounting plate extending longitudinally thereof in the direction of movement of material transported thereover and extending normal thereto through said layer of resilient material such that said layer of resilient material and said rigid member are exposed to said quarry material wherein said resilient material is selected from the group consisting of urethane and rubber and said wear resistant rigid member is a steel plate.
