  • Patent number: 11305942
    Abstract: A toothed belt drive for transport in a production process and/or a packaging process. The toothed belt drive includes a drive roller having a toothing system which runs along an outer circumference, a conveyor belt which is driven by the drive roller in a circulating direction, and a support roller. The conveyor belt includes a toothing system along an inner side and a continuous groove in the toothing system parallel to the circulating direction. The support roller includes a support disk which projects radially as an elevation so as to bear in a force-loading manner against the inner side of the conveyor belt. The elevation is a counterpart to the continuous groove of the conveyor belt. The support disk is arranged so that the elevation lies on a bottom of the continuous groove.

  • Patent number: 10414062
    Abstract: A transverse cutting roller 1 for the transverse cutting of a flat product moving in a transport direction, in particular a viscous foodstuff, such as industrially produced cheese 14, wherein a transverse cutting blade 3, which bridges the product, which is intended to be cut, transversely to the transport direction, is held on a carrier shaft 2 by a plurality of axially spaced blade carriers 4 mounted on the carrier shaft 2, wherein each blade carrier has at least one carrier element 7, which extends radially outward with respect to the rotational axis A of the carrier shaft 2 when the blade carrier 4 is installed, wherein provided on the outer end of each carrier element 7 is a blade attachment section 5, on which the strip-type blade is detachably attached so as to be radially spaced from the carrier shaft 2.
