A transmission for transmitting drive from a motor to a drive sprocket wheel for driving the drive chain of a mineral mining plough has a housing which is attached to a side plate of the drive frame of a mine conveyor. The housing is formed with a recess sized and shaped to accommodate the sprocket wheel. The recess is open at one end to permit the plough drive chain to enter and leave the sprocket wheel. The housing is provided with connector flanges adjacent to the end remote from the recess opening, and with a spacer adjacent to the end adjacent to the recess opening. The spacer is detachably secured to the housing and to the drive frame, or to an intermediate channel section which joins the drive frame to a scraper-chain conveyor. The spacer and the flanges are bolted to the drive frame and/or the channel section.

Plough transmission

Conveying apparatus which may be embodied as a jib for a cutter-loader machine in tunnelling or mining applications. The apparatus employs a scraper-chain assembly which in known manner is entrained around rotatable members and is circulated within guide channels with side surfaces adjoined by a base or floor surface. An electric drive motor is coupled via reduction-ratio gearing unit to one or other of the rotatable members. The motor and the gearing each have housings joined together end-to-end and the housing of the motor is joined to at least one other body section of the apparatus. The housings and this body section have the same cross-sectional profile defining the aforesaid guide channels.
