  • Patent number: 9162826
    Abstract: The invention relates, in particular, to a self-aligning, quick exchange, transformable concave belt conveyor (FIG. 1). The combined solutions allow components worn by continuous use of the equipment to be quickly replaced, the load to be carried in a stable manner, auxiliary aligning components to be dispensed with and, above all, belts of different widths and rollers with different angles of inclination to be used in the same structure. The main component is the integral segmented catenary, with a flexible shaft, roller cage with a ball seat and self-locking connection fastening (FIG. 2). The bench is hinged to a telescopic support that allows changing the angle of inclination of the roller, and widening or narrowing the structure belts of different widths, forming a self-alignment rocker (FIG. 3). The conveyor has a driving drum driven in a special manner, the drum being telescopic and formed by radial tubes attached to the side and central reflectors, producing the telescopic effect (FIG.
