Abstract
A recessed nosebar for transitioning a conveyor belt at an end of a carryway comprises a bulbous transition end and a recess below and inset from the bulbous transition end to facilitate turning of the conveyor belt. The bulbous transition end is formed by a curved surface that extends from a horizontal flat surface forming an end of a carryway through an arc that spans more than 90° but less than 180° and transitions to a concave recess for spacing the conveyor belt from the nosebar during transitioning.
