ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for selectively applying driving power to a group of conveyor rollers in a conveyor having a longitudinally extending power or drive shaft including a pair of sheaves or pulleys connected to opposite members of a clutch. One of the sheaves is a drive sheave and is coupled by an endless power-take-off belt to the drive shaft. The other sheave is a driven sheave and is engaged with an endless roller drive belt which drivingly engages selected rollers, such as the rollers of an accumulation zone of an accumulation conveyor. A switching device, such as a signal roller positioned in another accumulation zone, is operatively connected to the clutch to cause actuation or deactuation thereof to thereby selectively transfer rotary power from the drive shaft through the sheaves and roller drive belt to the selected rollers.
