 movement direction. The stripping plates are mounted in pivoted manner by a torsion spring about an axis at right angles to the conveyor belt running direction and resiliently for an elastic deflection movement about said axis. A deflection movement is e.g. performed if obstacles adhering firmly to the conveyor belt strike the stripping plate. For the setting and engagement of the stripping plate on the associated belt area, each stripping element has a vertical adjustment device and for the preferably automatic setting of the parallelism of the stripping plate with respect to the conveyor belt has a pivot bearing for pivoting about an axis, which forms an angle smaller than 90.degree. with the conveyor belt portion running onto the stripping plate.
These known stripping elements have a high stripping capacity, because they also react rapidly to minor displacements of the conveyor belt underface or are easily adjustable and can automatically assume an optimum position for the stripping of impurities adhering to the conveyor belt. Proximity probes or eddy current probes have proven to be one of the best transducers in rotating shaft vibration monitoring systems. These non-contact sensors are used to measure shaft vibrations or movements in systems that diagnose the condition of the machinery or shaft, and in dynamically balancing the shaft. The proximity probes measure the spacing between the probe mounted in the case housing and the shaft during operational shaft rotation. Changes in this spacing reflect vibration in the shaft, which if excessive can seriously damage the machinery. It is the detection of this vibration signal that is a prime object of shaft vibration monitoring.
However, eddy current probes suffer the limitation of runout signals. Runout is the mechanical imperfection in machine shafts. It is also been adopted as the name for the output signal of a vibration pick-up that does not represent shaft vibratory motion, but is caused by the eccentricity of the shaft, surface irregularities, and by properties of the shaft material that causes the vibration probe to give an incorrect vibration signal. This incorrect signal is called "electrical runout" or "runout signals," and it is this runout that presents the machinery manufacturers with major difficulties since the electrical runout signal often exceed the magnitude limit acceptable in determining the magnitude of the vibration signal. While mechanical runout can be reduced by proper finishing of the surface that the probe is going to observe, and methods such as shaft-peening and burnishing have been developed to reduce electrical runout, these techniques have only been partially successful. It has been suggested to derive an electrical signal that corresponds to the "electrical runout"
movement direction. The stripping plates are mount in pivot manner by a torsion spring about an bloc at right slant to the conveyor belt run direction and resiliently for an elastic deflection motion about said axis. A deflection apparent motion is e.g. performed if obstacle adhere firmly to the conveyor knock strike the stripping home plate. For the setting and engagement of the stripping denture on the associated belt area, each stripping component has a vertical adjustment device and for the preferably automatic setting of the parallelism of the stripping home plate with respect to the conveyor belt has a pivot bearing for pivoting about an axis, which forms an angle smaller than 90.degree. with the conveyor belt portion running onto the stripping plate. 
 These known stripping elements suffer a high stripping capacitance, because they besides react quickly to minor displacements of the conveyor belt underface or are easily adjustable and can automatically assume an optimum position for the stripping of impurities adhere to the conveyor belt. Proximity probes or eddy current probes have proven to be one of the good transducers in rotating shaft vibration monitoring system. These non - contact detector are used to measure shaft vibrations or movements in systems that diagnose the condition of the machinery or shaft, and in dynamically poise the shaft. The proximity probes measure the spacing between the probe mounted in the character housing and the rotating shaft during operational shaft rotation. change in this spacing reflect shaking in the shaft, which if excessive can badly damage the machinery. It is the detection of this vibration signal that is a premier object of shaft oscillation monitoring. 
 However, eddy current probes hurt the limitation of runout signals. Runout is the mechanical imperfection in machine shafts. It is also been adopted as the name for the output signal of a vibration pick - up that does not typify shaft vibratory motion, but is induce by the eccentricity of the shaft, surface constipation, and by properties of the shaft material that induce the vibration probe to give an incorrect vibration signal. This incorrect signal is called " electric runout " or " runout signals, " and it is this runout that presents the machinery manufacturer with major difficulties since the electrical runout signal often exceed the magnitude limit satisfactory in determining the magnitude of the vibration signal. While mechanical runout can be reduced by proper finishing of the surface that the probe is going to observe, and methods such as shaft - peening and burnishing have been develop to reduce electrical runout, these techniques have entirely been partially successful.
