ABSTRACT:
A conveyor belt comprises one or more elongate pieces of material joined together to form an endless belt. The or each joint extends across the belt at an angle non-perpendicular to the direction of intended travel of the belt. Adjoining ends of the belt are connected together by a plurality of generally U-shaped gripping elements. The free ends of each gripping element grip an adjoining end of the belt and the closed ends of the gripping elements protrude beyond the respective adjoining end of the belt. A hinge pin extends through the protruding parts of the gripping elements of each of the adjoining ends of each belt to connect the adjoining ends of the belt together.
