  • Patent number: 11279566
    Abstract: Method of adjusting and tracking an conveyor belt arranged around at least two rotatable drums, the belt having a direction of travel along its length and orthogonally an axis of the at least two drums, whereby the adjustment of the belt is made by displacing at least one of the drums sideways seen in the direction of travel of the belt and thus the belt so that the belt directly gets into a desired position. A conveyor belt tracking arrangement, the drums are arranged with their axles in a frame and at least one drum is arranged with its axle in a pivot frame and the pivot frame is in turn adjustably arranged in the frame, and movable by means of a drum moving force, which in turn makes the whole drum, with the belt, to move with the pivot frame around a pivot point provided in an orthogonal plane along the centre of the belt seen in the direction of the belt at a distance from the drum, so that the belt is directly moved to a desired position.
