Abstract:

A mounting bracket for an axial separator rotor tooth. The bracket is provided with extended portions that are welded to the rotor tube. Extending radially outward from the extended portions are bracket legs. A middle portion extends between the bracket legs and is provided with a bolt locating slot. A central enlarged opening is formed in the bolt locating a slot. The head of a mounting bolt, for bolting the tooth to the bracket, can be inserted through the enlarged opening.
