Abstract
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.
