摘要
<p>The conveyor has a conveyor belt guided around a return shaft (30) to form an upper strand and a lower strand. A drive device is separately arranged from the return shaft and drives the conveyor belt into a return area between the upper strand and the lower strand. The drive device has a rotationally drivable toothed wheel (60) or a V-belt pulley, which is brought in engagement with a toothed belt arranged at an edge section of the conveyor belt and coupled with an electric motor (70) e.g. alternating current motor. An independent claim is also included for a method for mounting of a belt conveyor.</p>
