An improved belt scraper assembly for use in a conveyor belt system to scrape debris off of a conveyor belt comprises a support bar having scraper blade attached thereto that is biased against the conveyor belt by a spring at both ends of the support bar. Ends of the support bar pivotally attach to brackets mounted on spaced apart frame members. A second bracket is mounted on a side of each frame member. One end of each spring attaches to an end of the support bar. The other end of the spring attaches to the second bracket to bias an edge of the scraper blade against the conveyor belt. When this edge wears down, the operator flips the support member over to utilize the opposite edge of the scraper blade without stopping the conveyor system. When both edges are worn down, the operator replaces the blade without stopping the system.
