Abstract
A two mass, single motor bi-directional conveyor for conveying solid objects, granular and powder material. The unit utilizes the two mass sub-resonant natural frequency system driven by a single motor with counterweight wheels. The forces created by the rotation of the counterweight wheels results in a trough stroke at an angle from the horizontal pan resulting in material motion. The trough stroke is absorbed with isolation springs mounted between the conveyor and the ground.
