Conveyor

A conveyor comprising:

• a first belt which is configured to move in a closed loop;
• a support element which comprises first surface, wherein the first surface of the support element is configured to cooperate with a first surface of the first belt to support the first belt during an outgoing part of the closed loop and the support element further comprises a second surface, and wherein the second surface of the support element is configured to cooperate with a second surface of the first belt to support the first belt during a return part of the closed loop, so that the first belt is prevented from hanging;
• a second belt which is configured to move in a closed loop, and the support element comprises a third surface, wherein the third surface of the support element is configured to cooperate with a first surface of the second belt to support the second belt during an outgoing part of the closed loop and the support element further comprises a fourth surface, wherein the fourth surface of the support element is configured to cooperate with a second surface of the second belt to support the second belt during a return part of the closed loop, so that the second belt is prevented from hanging;
• wherein the support element comprises a member which has an inverted T-shaped cross-section, which defines the second and fourth surfaces of the support element, wherein said second surface defined by said support element has a width which is at least equal to the width of the first belt, and wherein said fourth surface defined by said support element has a width which is at least equal to the width of the second belt.
