Cover belt conveyor

Abstract

A cover belt conveyor for delivering bulk materials or piece goods includes, a basic belt (1) and a cover belt (2), wherein at least one of these belts (1, 2) is driven. A space for the delivery strand (4) is formed in the central area of these belts, and at least the cover belt (2) is pressed on by elastic support rollers (6). At least one of the two belts (1, 2) has, in the vicinity of its two edge areas, reinforcements (3) made in one piece with the belt, which laterally delimit the delivery strand (4). The support rollers (6) above the cover belt (2) and/or the support rollers (5) under the basic belt (1) are mounted elastically on support structures (10). In the exemplary embodiment, two short support rollers (6) each for the cover belt (2) are mounted elastically in a common bracket (8) by of rubber bearings (9). The rubber bearings (9) permit the support rollers (6 ) to move by an angle in parallel to the delivery direction and in parallel to the width of the belt.
