Abstract: A conveyor belt lifting device is configured to shift the belt away from the conveyor frame, which facilitates cleaning of the undersurface of the belt and the portions of the frame covered by the belt. The device includes a support bar rotatably mounted to the conveyor frame and at least one arm projecting from the bar, such that rotation of the bar corresponds with swinging of the arm. The arm is configured to engage the undersurface of the belt and shift the belt away from the frame as it swings from a standby position to an operating position.

Abstract: A roll, along with methods of fabricating and using such roll, for driving a woven-wire conveyor belt, provide substantially-uniform drive across belt width, avoid disruption of belt drive, provide unidirection tracking of such belt, and avoid disruption of conveyed product during treatment of conveyed product at temperatures other than ambient. During conveyance of product for heating or cooling treatment, woven-wire conveyor belts and rolls driving such belts are often at differing temperatures, especially during start-up and shutdown of operations. Such temperature differentials can cause dimensional changes in a belt which change the relative location of belt recesses with respect to the roll surface. Selective shaping and dimensioning of roll protrusions from the widthwise center of a roll toward each lateral end of the roll eliminates mismatching of belt recesses due to changes in belt width during product processing at temperatures other than ambient.

Abstract: The flexible conveyor belt is flat when at rest. It has internal reinforcement embedded in layers of elastomer material. The reinforcement comprises a first sheet of longitudinal cables that provide traction strength, a second sheet of transverse cables that provide transverse traction strength, and a stiffening layer having high resistance to transverse compression. The stiffening layer consists of several narrow strips lying in a common plane at rest, the strips are mutually adjacent and are separated by gaps of sufficient width to allow the conveyor belt to be folded between two rows of rollers in a conveyor.

Abstract: A conveyor provided with an endless conveyor belt making a curve, which near its ends is passed over rollers journalled in a frame, and which can be driven during operation. A collar is provided near one edge of the belt located on the outer side of the curve, which collar is engaged by guide rollers supported by the frame. A guide roller engaging a collar is capable of pivoting movement about a pivot axis, which extends at least substantially parallel to the belt part supporting the collar and which, as seen in a longitudinal direction, is located on the side of the collar remote from the side that cooperates with the guide roller. Furthermore a mechanism is provided by which the guide roller can be locked against being pivoted about the pivot axis when the guide roller is in engagement with the collar.

Abstract: A chain cover including a plurality of first cover blocks and a plurality of second cover blocks. Each of the blocks has a pair of side walls each having a projecting portion at an inner side thereof. The projecting portions have configurations which conform with lateral faces of outer link plates of a chain so as to receive the outer link plates. Each of the first and second cover blocks further has a bridge connecting the side walls, and the side walls are formed with a convex front edge portion and a concave rear edge portion. The concave rear edge portion of the second cover blocks are rotatably slidable on the convex front edge portion of an adjacent one of the first cover blocks. The convex front edge portions and the concave rear edge portions lie along portions of the a cylindrical surface having a central axis including the corresponding pins of the chain. Also, the projecting portions of the first and second cover block are inserted into a space formed by the outer link plates and the inner link plates of the chain. Therefore, the chain cover is able to flex along with the flexing crooking action of the chain.

Abstract: Method of manufacturing, assembling and fabricating a woven-wire belt with unitary vertically-oriented lateral edge flattened-wire helically-wound surfaces along each lateral edge for dynamic-frictional drive of the belt by a rotatable substantially-cylindrical drive surface in a helically-curved path, free of any mechanical drive connection while in the helical path. Lengthwise-directed tension control of the belt is exercised, while the belt is exterior to the helically-curved path, to achieve desired frictional drive contact within the drive surface. An exterior travel path for the belt between exit from and return to the helically-curved path provides an endless belt travel array. Increasing belt movement from the helically-curved path to the exterior travel path is used to increase lengthwise-extended tensile stress in the outer perimeter of the belt, while in the curved path; the increase in tensile stress in the outer perimeter increases constrictive force transferred to the inner perimeter of the belt so as to increase dynamic-frictional drive force along the inner perimeter of the belt which is in contact with the rotatable substantially-cylindrical drive surface.

Abstract: Weld-free belt assembly in which elongated link modules are coupled in widthwise side-by-side relationship by transversely-oriented coupling modules. An internal cavity is defined within each link along with a surface configuration on each side of the link which defines an entry access portion for a coupler and slot portions for enabling relative longitudinal movement of the coupler while retaining the coupler within the internal cavity. The interfitting coaction of the links and couplers enables an assembled belt to move from linear planar travel into a curved path to establish an endless-belt configuration. The relative movement of couplers within a link cavity enables longitudinal collection of links along the inner circumference when the belt enters a curvilinear travel path in approximately the same plane and enables re-extension for return to linear travel. An assembled belt can be driven longitudinally by sprockets; and, also, can be driven along a serpentine path by lateral-edge dynamic frictional drive, or in a similarly driven layered helical-path "carousel" arrangement. Special configuration lateral-edge links provide protrusion-free lateral edge surfaces enabling smooth dynamic frictional drive along inner circumference surfaces during curvilinear travel.

Abstract: Process and installation for the ultraclean continuous transportation of erial from a point P to a point P' within a bacteriologically controlled zone by a conveyor. The conveyor is continuously covered from upstream of point P with respect to the direction of travel of the conveyor, to downstream of point P', with a solid covering whose surface adapted to come into contact with the material is sterile. The material is deposited at point P on the covering, and the transported material is removed from contact with the solid covering at point P'. The path of the material is enclosed at least between points P and P', and a bacteria-free atmosphere is established in this enclosed path.
