Zusammenfassung:1. Field of the Invention A vacuum belt conveyor includes an air-pervious endless belt, a first pulley positioned at the upstream end of the conveyor and a second pulley positioned at the downstream end of the conveyor, the pulleys guiding the belt when the belt is traveling. The endless belt comes into contact with a plate having openings which are connected to a source of negative pressure. The belt, in the area of the upstream end of the conveyor, is in contact with a curved and perforated guiding surface, with the perforations, being connected to a source of negative pressure.
