Abstract
The belt conveyor comprises: a conveyance belt (3) having at least one longitudinal segment (17) tensioned between first and second tension members; a device (21) for assessing the tension of said segment (17), laid out for assessing, in a determined measurement point located longitudinally between the first and second tension members, a deviation of the segment (17) relatively to a reference value, the deviation being taken along a determined measurement direction forming a non-zero angle with the longitudinal direction.
