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.
