Abstract
There is disclosed a road gritter device (10) which forms a unit which can be mounted onto a loading platform (11) of a truck for use during the winter months, and which comprises a hopper body (12) assembled from a number of separately formed plates of rigid plastics material which are releasably coupled together for replacement when required. An endless conveyor (15) is arranged to convey gritter material from the hopper body (12) to a spinner disc assembly (13) which comprises a spinner disc (14) rotatable in a substantially horizontal plane in order to distribute laterally gritter material supplied thereto. The endless conveyor (15) has an endless conveyor band (16) made of plastics or elastomeric material, and preferably also the spinner disc (14) also is made of plastics material. Therefore, the major components of the road gritter device are made of plastics material which is not adversely affected by usual road gritter material incorporating "salt", which otherwise can cause serious corrosion damage to existing designs of gritter devices fabricated from metal sheet and having metal spinner discs. By making the hopper body of an assembly of separate rigid sheets or plates of plastics material, damaged or worn sheets can readily be replaced.

refur~is~ment amounts-to a s~bstantial-amount~
There is therefore a cl.ear nee~ to provide:a novel construoton o~ road gritter device which is less - ~
s~s~eptible to corrosive at~ack from the consti4uents of , -the gritter material whi~h it is inten~ed to distribute. ~
.Accordin~ to o~e aspect o~ the in~ention there is pro~ided.a road -gri~ter deYic~ which forms part o~. or is adapted to be mounted ~n a transpor~ vehicle, and which ls operable to d~stribute gritter material over the surface o~
a road when req~ired. in whichLtAe devi~e e~mprises: ', a hopper body for ~ritter material Which is assembled, fro~ a plurality of separately formed plates. at least some of which are made of rlgid plastics materlal ~nd which 2rej releasa~ly co~pl~d together.for replacemënt when required:

made of a rIgid.pl~stios materi21 znd.
an endless c~n~eyor 2rran~e~ to convey gritter material from the hopper to the s~inner disc.
A~cording to another ~spect of the inve~-ion there is pro~ited a r~ad gritter devic~ which forms part of. or is adapted to be mountet on a transport vehicle. and wh~ch is' opera~le t~ distri~ute gritter m~terial over the surface of a road when re~uired. in which the device comprises:
a hopper body f~r gritter material whlch is assemblet from a pl~rality o~ se~ar tely forme~ plates. at least som of ~hi~h aro reieasabl~ coupled together for replacement ~hen required;

A road gritter device accordi~g to. a~g of the above aspec~s of the inventic~ is therefore better able to wi~hs~a~d the corrosi~e action of the usual ~s~lt~ which is present in ro~ ~ritter material ~sod i~ this country, since at least some o~ the component parts o~ the device are made of p~astics ma~erial.

A parti~ul~r pre~erred material is a newly aYaila~le I
plastics material obt~inable from Macpherson Polymers under t~e tra~e n~me PO~YE~E~ 2B74~06. However. St is e~is~ed t~t there will be ot~er types of pl2stics material which haYe su~ficient resilience to wit~stand the W~ g~ O!? r~ f~i~

The use o~ plas~ics material i~ the ~abrication ~ some or ~11 of t4e ma jor oomponents of the r~ad gr~tter device enables the device to function sa~isfactorily and without any corrosi~e acti~n :
from the contents of the ~ritter material.
Preferab}y. the hopper body.is entÇrely fabricated from separately for~ed sheets or plates of ri~id pl~sticsl~
material which are releasa~ly coupled together. ~nd in the ev~nt of any exce~sive we~r occuring.in service. or more 1, usually in the event of impa~t damage by careless use.

There is therefore a cl.ear nee~ to provide:a novel construoton o~ road gritter device which is less - ~
s~s~eptible to corrosive at~ack from the consti4uents of , -the gritter material whi~h it is inten~ed to distribute. ~
.Accordin~ to o~e aspect o~ the in~ention there is pro~ided.a road -gri~ter deYic~ which forms part o~. or is adapted to be mounted ~n a transpor~ vehicle, and which ls operable to d~stribute gritter material over the surface o~
a road when req~ired. in whichLtAe devi~e e~mprises: ', a hopper body for ~ritter material Which is assembled, fro~ a plurality of separately formed plates. at least some of which are made of rlgid plastics materlal ~nd which 2rej releasa~ly co~pl~d together.for replacemënt when required:
a spinner disc whi~h is rotatable in a 5ubsta~tially horizo~t21 plane i~ order ~o-distribute l?terally ~ritter material supplied thereto from ~he hopper~ and.
an endless con~eyor arran~ed to co~vey gritter~ l material ~rom the hopper t~ t~eispinner-~lsc. ~.
Ac~ordLn~ to a ~urther aspec~ o~ the ~nve~tion there is provded a ro~d ~ritter ~ ce which forms part of. or is adapted ~o be mounted on a transport vehi¢le. an~ which', c opera~le to dis~ri~ute ~ritter m~eriaI- o~er ~he surface of a road when r~quired. in wnIch the d~Yice comprises~

made of a rIgid.pl~stios materi21 znd.
an endless c~n~eyor 2rran~e~ to convey gritter material from the hopper to the s~inner disc.
A~cording to another ~spect of the inve~-ion there is pro~ited a r~ad gritter devic~ which forms part of. or is adapted to be mountet on a transport vehicle. and wh~ch is' opera~le t~ distri~ute gritter m~terial over the surface of a road when re~uired. in which the device comprises:
a hopper body f~r gritter material whlch is assemblet from a pl~rality o~ se~ar tely forme~ plates. at least som of ~hi~h aro reieasabl~ coupled together for replacement ~hen required;
a spinner disc wnich ~s ~ot~table in a su~stantially horizo~tal plane ~n order to ~is~r~ute laterally gri~ter ~aterial supplied t~ereto from the hopper: a~d, an endle~s conveyor arran~ed to co~vey ~ritter materi~l f~om the hopper to t~e.spinner disc. an endless '.
conYeyor ba~d of the conve~or being made o~ plastics or el~stomeric material.
A road gritter device accordi~g to. a~g of the above aspec~s of the inventic~ is therefore better able to wi~hs~a~d the corrosi~e action of the usual ~s~lt~ which is present in ro~ ~ritter material ~sod i~ this country, since at least some o~ the component parts o~ the device are made of p~astics ma~erial.
T~ere is now availa~le on the m r~et a ~ew type of plastics material ~ALch is r~id and robust. ~nd whi~h i~
cap~ble sf wifhsta~din~ the arduous conditions to which ~t ~ill be expo~e~ in service ~s compone~t pa~ts of a road ~ritt~r device.se~ording to the inve~tion.
A parti~ul~r pre~erred material is a newly aYaila~le I
plastics material obt~inable from Macpherson Polymers under t~e tra~e n~me PO~YE~E~ 2B74~06. However. St is e~is~ed t~t there will be ot~er types of pl2stics material which haYe su~ficient resilience to wit~stand the W~ g~ O!? r~ f~i~
ar~uous conditions to ~hich they will ~ e~posed. and yet which h~s sufficient rigidity to be ~a~ricated ~nto suita~ly robust form Ior long ~erv.ice. The use o~ plas~ics material i~ the ~abrication ~ some or ~11 of t4e ma jor oomponents of the r~ad gr~tter device enables the device to function sa~isfactorily and without any corrosi~e acti~n :
from the contents of the ~ritter material.
Preferab}y. the hopper body.is entÇrely fabricated from separately for~ed sheets or plates of ri~id pl~sticsl~
material which are releasa~ly coupled together. ~nd in the ev~nt of any exce~sive we~r occuring.in service. or more 1, usually in the event of impa~t damage by careless use.
replacement sheets can readily ~e instal~ed with onl~
minimal ~own time~ o~ the gri~ter device.

The endloss con~eyor may hav.e most of it~ major eomponents made o~ plastics ~terial. such a the endless i con~e~or band. ~r~ve..rollers ~nd. id~e ro}lers. so as to mini~ise ~he opp~r.tunity for corrosive attac~ to ta~e place. - . . j A road..gritter de~ic~ according to the invention may form an integral component of &: speci~lly designed and: ' constr~ct~ road gr~tt~r vehiole..but pre~erz~l~ will ~e ', ~

~ heD the hopper body is assembled entirely from plastics sheets coupied together. it will be preferable fo~
the hopper body o be given additional rigidity by the pro~ision of a ri~id supporting frame whih en~a~es the upper edge mar~ins of the side walls of the hopper body.
This supportin~ frame may be fabricate~ ~rom suitable ~et sections whioh are ri~3dly assem~led ~o form the re~uired frame shape. and ~ usuai mesh screen may be supporte~ by this fr~me throu~h which the ~ri~ter material will be }oa~ed by bucket-mounted loaders.
The interior of the hoppèr body ~y also be provi~ed with a spre~der frame srran~ed near the lower part of the hopper body. This spreader frame will tend to bear part o~
She load of the gritter material, and also will facili~ate.
smooth discharge of ~he material from the louer part of ~he hopper body onto the underlyi~ entless con~eyor~
