LOW TENSION PLASTIC CONVEYOR BELT SYSTEM

摘要

LOW TENSION PLASTIC CONVEYOR BELT SYSTEM An all-plastic conveyor belt of the type that is collapsible on curves is used in a low tension system, progressing in a helical path around a drive cage or tower. The modules making up the belt have end members with recesses for receiving the heads of plastic rods which hold the modules together. The heads are thus recessed and will not wear against bars or other components of the drive cage or tower of the low tension system. The end members of the belt modules in one embodiment are slightly concave for better conforming to the surfaces of the driving tower or cage.
