    摘要: A support link for a self-stacking spiral conveyor belt, which includes a carrier on which a self-stacking spiral conveyor belt is supportable, a set of orthogonally arranged rolling elements connected to the carrier, in use to guide the carrier along a conveyor path and an interlink mountable onto the carrier. The interlink is connectable to a matched interlink of an adjacent support link through couplers disposed on opposing ends thereof, whereby the connection of a plurality of support links results in a support chain. Furthermore, there is provided a supporting frame defining the conveyor path on which the support chain is movable and a motor driving the support chain by means of a drive gear, which interacted with a drive interface disposed on each support link.

    摘要: The invention relates to a positive drive spiral conveyor which includes, a drive tower rotatable about a vertical axis and a plurality of drive members extending in length from a bottom to a top of the drive tower. The drive members are spaced radially around the drive tower, with each drive member having a projecting driving ridge extending in length along at least a section of each drive member with a projecting shaft positioned on each drive member proximate an end of the driving ridge thereby defining an engagement zone. The projecting shaft defines a guiding surface around the shaft, such that in use a positive drive protrusion of a conveyor belt engages the guiding surface of the projecting shaft and is guided towards a leading side of the driving ridge.
