ABSTRACT:
The modular endless conveyor belt includes a structure provided with guides to support the upper run of the belt, a curvilinear guide mechanism and a stabilization mechanism for the belt with relation to the perpendicular in curved trajectory sections. The curvilinear guide mechanism is made up of rollers regularly distributed on the structure, cooperating with lugs arranged on the internal surface of the belt. The lugs include a shoulder for stabilizing the belt. The guide has the form of a rail, arranged below the rollers, cooperating with a shoulder on each lug to counteract the vertical movements to which the belt is subjected as a function of the load being transported. The rail arranged below the rollers has the form of a thin metal sheet in a circular arc and the sheet is housed in a rebate provided in the support structure for the upper run of the belt.
