Abstract
A pipe conveyor comprising a conveyor pipe 1, a plurality of blades 2 each having a similar sectional configuration to that of the pipe 1, and an endless link chain 3 for linking the blades 2 at suitable intervals and capable of circulating, substances delivered into the pipe 1 being conveyed by the blades 2 which are moved within the pipe 1 in accordance with the circulation of the endless link chain 3, wherein each of the blades 2 comprises an elastic blade 21 having an outer diameter generally equal to or smaller than an inner diameter of the pipe 1, and a curved disc 22 secured to a rear surface of the elastic blade 21 and adapted to support the same.
Claims3
A pipe conveyor comprising a conveyor pipe, a plurality of blades each having a similar sectional configuration to that of said pipe, and an endless link chain for linking said blades at suitable intervals and capable of circulating, substances delivered into said pipe being conveyed by said blades which are moved within said pipe in accordance with the circulation of said endless link chain, each of said blades comprising an elastic blade having an outer diameter no greater than an inner diameter of said pipe, and a support body secured to a rear surface of said elastic blade and adapted to support the same, wherein the elastic blade is concave and the support body is concave and of the same curvature as the elastic blade.
