Abstract: A conveyor belt for a belt conveying system is formed of rubber or a rubber-like plastics material and reinforced by steel cables that extend in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor belt and run parallel to one another. The conveyor belt is assembled from interconnected portions. The steel cables, which have an inner cable core and helically encircling strands are arranged in the end regions of the portions such that they butt against one another, on the one hand, and overlap one another, on the other hand. The ends of groups of the steel cables are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor belt. At least in the case of the majority of the steel cables, the strands, which enclose the cable core of the individual steel cables, terminate at different spacing distances from the ends of the cable core, as a result of which the cross sections of the steel cables decrease in the direction of the ends thereof.

Abstract: A conveyor belt moves material from a loading station to an unloading station. The belt is formed on its two sides with spaced support rollers that move along a support track. The belt is guided over deflection drums in the loading station and in the unloading station. A turning device turns the conveyor belt through about 180° after the deflection drum in the unloading station, and a turning device turns the conveyor belt back through about 180° in front of the deflection drum of the loading station. Each turning device is formed by a support structure similar to a hollow cylinder with two spiral guides on the inside, along which the support rollers can be moved. The two guides lie approximately diametrically opposite one another and execute an angular rotation of about 180° over the length of the support structure.
