ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a belt conveyor including a longitudinal conveyor belt and a plurality of stations for supporting the conveyor belt distributed longitudinally along the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt includes a matrix made of a resilient material and a frame embedded in the matrix, and at least some support stations each including a support member for supporting the belt and a framework supported on the ground. The support member is fixed on the framework at a height greater than two meters relative to the ground. The support stations are spaced far apart from one another. The conveyor does not comprise a device for supporting the belt between stations.
