Abstract
A conveyor belt cleaner is provided having a scraper blade arranged transversely on the lower run of the belt. The scraper blade can have at least one blade or a plurality of blades pivotally connected together. A shaping element having a non-linear configuration adjusts the profile of the scraper blade to match the configuration of the shaping bar. A biasing element connected with the vertical controller biases the scraper blade towards the belt maintaining the scraper blade in contact with the belt. A vertical controller raises and lowers the position of the scraper blade to provide for angular adjustment of the scraper blade relative to the belt.
