Segmentblock system for sealing transfer chutes

This easy-to-operate sealing system is for sealing the sides and head of the transfer chute opposite the conveyor-belt.

Backing plates are either welded or screwed on to the bottom edge of the chute. Individual segment blocks made out of rubber or plastic are drawn back with their plates next to each other on the vertical guides, adjusted to the belt contour and clamped so that the leaking and dust produced by conventional rubber strip sealing are avoided.

If they wear out, segment blocks can be readjusted with the hammer individually, if necessary, whilst the machine is in operation.
