Belt for a conveyor system

摘要

A belt for a conveyor system generally includes a ribbon of elastomeric material and a plurality of reinforcing cords connected to the ribbon. The ribbon defines a central longitudinal axis and a pair of side edges extending parallel to the longitudinal axis. At least some of the cords have ends positioned between the longitudinal axis and a side edge.

1. A belt for a conveyor system, the belt comprising:
a ribbon of elastomeric material defining a central longitudinal axis and a pair of side edges extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, the central longitudinal axis defining a direction of travel of the belt along the conveyor system; a first layer of reinforcing cords connected to the ribbon and extending lengthwise between the pair of side edges; a second layer of reinforcing cords connected to the ribbon and extending lengthwise between the pair of side edges; a third layer of reinforcing cords connected to the ribbon and extending lengthwise between the pair of side edges; and a fourth layer of reinforcing cords connected to the ribbon and extending lengthwise between the pair of side edges; wherein ends of the cords in each of the first, second, third, and fourth layers are positioned between the longitudinal axis and one of the side edges, and wherein the ends of the cords in at least one of a group consisting of the first, second, third, and fourth layers extend in a serrated pattern along a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and perpendicular to an axis extending between the pair of side edges.
