Abstract

The invention relates to a device for cleaning a moving transport belt in a papermaking machine, for instance a dry or wet wire belt or a felt belt, having at least one nozzle which can be directed against the transport belt for spraying the woven belt with liquid or gaseous fluid. A suction chamber 18 surrounds and cooperates with the cleaning nozzle (8), so that dirt and/or water mist detached by the nozzle jet (27) from the transport belt (4) or residual water are drawn into the suction chamber (18) and led away, avoiding dirtying or contamination of the nearby area.
