CONVEYOR TRANSFER GUARDS
In one aspect, a transfer guard member having a body for being positioned in a gap intermediate conveying surfaces, an upper portion of the body for spanning the gap and outer portions of the upper body for slidingly engaging the conveying surfaces, and a pair of spaced, resilient legs having distal end portions for resiliently and slidingly engaging the conveying surfaces. In another aspect, a transfer guard member having a body and at least one attachment member of the body configured for being detachably fixed to a mounting bar. The body has at least one recess adjacent the attachment member for receiving at least one attachment member of another transfer guard member fixed to the mounting bar so that upper transfer surfaces of the attachment members are adjacent one another.
1 . A transfer guard member comprising:
a body for being positioned in a gap intermediate conveying surfaces;
an upper portion of the body having an upper transfer surface to transfer objects across the gap;
outer portions of the body upper portion to slidingly engage the conveying surfaces;
a pair of spaced, resilient legs of the body having distal end portions to slidingly engage the conveying surfaces; and
outer surface portions of the legs configured to be spaced from the conveying surfaces with the body positioned in the gap intermediate the conveying surfaces, the outer surface portions of the legs separating the outer portions of the upper body portion and the distal end portions of the legs along the conveying surfaces.
