DEFINITION
Classification: 198/622
(under subclass 620) Apparatus wherein two or more of said power-driven conveyors sections, which simultaneously cooperate to move the load, form a couple to move the load, but wherein each member of the couple, if acting independently, would tend to move the load in opposite directions.
(1) Note. The driven conveyor member which moves opposite to the direction of motion of the conveyed load contacts a portion of the load being conveyed and strips off or throws back the stripped portion of the load.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
635, for static means which scrape or smooth out the surface of the load being conveyed.
688.1, for means which engage a free surface of the load to bias the load to the conveying means for greater friction engagement therewith.
836, for endless conveyors having broadly means independent of the carrier designed to prevent accidental removal of the load from the carrier.
