ABSTRACT:
Stretching of a conveyor belt to prevent edge spillage during horizontal turns is achieved with a new and improved chain extending longitudinally of the belt intermediate its side edges and secured to the belt. The chain is formed of alternate links, one of which is a C-shaped link secured to the belt and the other of which is a connecting link adapted to be engaged by a twin-drive sprocket. The links are loosely fitted such that the C-shaped links can be secured to the belt with a minimum distance between links and thereafter pulled apart to stretch the belt to which the chain is attached.
