<p>A conveyor belt (20) has a textured edge (46) for use in a spiral conveyor which includes a plurality of protrusions (60) on the edge (46) of the belt engaging the capstan (12), providing enhanced friction between the belt and the capstan (12). The protrusions (60) may be placed on end links (77) or reenforcement links (82), and may be a part of rods (78) connecting links of the belt. The capstan (12) can be textured as well to provide an additional friction. As the result, the driving force is transmitted to the belt much more efficiently, and the practical use of the plastic conveyor belt (20) in the spiral conveyor systems is possible.</p> |
