ABSTRACT:
A fixed radius conveyor belt for turn conveyors has a radially positioned plurality of rods which are wrapped with helically wound filaments bridging spaces between the rods to prevent conveyed objects from falling through the spaces between the rods. The filaments are maintained in the radial space between links which are attached to the rods at their ends close to an inside edge, and retainers attached at the ends of the rods close to an outside edge of the belt. The links engage one sprocket wheel of a conveyor, and the second wheel of the conveyor engages rods in an area adjacent to the retainers. Such an arrangement results in a belt which is structurally strong and can withstand conveyor jams and other irregularities in the conveying action without disintegration of the belt structure. The relatively simple construction of the belt permits easy assembly and allows production at a relatively low cost.
