Zusammenfassung:A conveyor belt comprised of a plurality of rigid, elongated bars arranged in parallel, spaced relation. The ends of each bar are connected to parallel, lateral belts, to support the bars and maintain their registration. Each bar has a plurality of elements, extending from either side of the bar. Elements on one side of a bar arranged in interdigitized relation with respect to adjacent elements extending from an adjacent bar. Rollers are provided within of the arcuate ends of the lateral belts, with at least one roller being driven. The rollers may be smooth or toothed, to engage the undersides of the lateral belts. The belt may be endless, or assembled from one or more belt segments. Two or more belts may be combined laterally, to increase the width of the conveyor belt.
