ABSTRACT:
A modular conveyor belt constructed of a series of rows of plastic belt modules hingedly interlinked by hinge pins and suitable for following straight or curved paths. Aligned slots formed in hinge elements on one end of a row are variably elongated in the direction of belt travel. Bearing surfaces bounding the distal ends of slots on one side of the row are aligned transverse to the direction of travel to engage the hinge pin and share belt pull on a straight run. Bearing surfaces bounding the distal ends of slots on the opposite side of the row are aligned oblique to the transverse direction to engage the hinge pin and share belt pull in a turn.
