ABSTRACT:
A conveyor system including a frame having a pair of extending side rails in spaced relation to one another, a plurality of live rollers transversely mounted between the side rails, an elongated drive shaft extending between the side rails adjacent to the rollers and a torque transmitter assembly is located parallel to the drive shaft and transverse to the rollers. The torque transmitter assembly includes a continuous belt connected to at least one of the rollers and a pulley assembly adapted to rotate with respect to the drive shaft and to receive the continuous belt, whereby the rotation of the drive shaft rotates the pulley assembly and the at least one of the rollers. In the preferred embodiment, the torque transmitter assembly also includes a biasing assembly connected to the pulley assembly for maintaining the pulley assembly in position with respect to the drive shaft.
