Positively-driven, low tension transfer conveyor |
摘要 |
Components of a conveyor system designed to facilitate tight transfer of products onto and off a positively-driven, low tension conveyor belt. The conveyor system includes a tension amplifier in a returnway of a conveyor belt circuit for selectively increasing tension in the conveyor belt prior to infeed without increasing the low tension in the returnway prior to the tension amplifier. |

1. A conveyor system, comprising:
a positively-driven, low tension conveyor belt trained around belt-guiding members to form a circuit having a carryway, an outfeed and a returnway; and a tension amplifier located in the returnway for increasing tension in a first section of the circuit between the tension amplifier and the carryway, while the returnway of the conveyor belt between the outfeed and the tension amplifier remains substantially untensioned. |
