ABSTRACT:
A conveyor belt comprises a plurality of longitudinally spaced transverse rods. A plurality of side links at both lateral edges of the conveyor belt are connected in pairs by the successive transverse rods. Each side link is movable relative to adjoining side links about two axes perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the conveyor belt. A wire netting is supported by the transverse rods and extends substantially over the whole width of the conveyor belt. The wire netting comprises a plurality of wires. A separate one of the wires forms a joint intermediate the lateral edges of the conveyor belt between each pair of adjoining transverse rods, each transverse rod in the pair connecting a separate pair of side links. Thereby, the joint takes up tractive forces at least along straight paths of the conveyor belt.
