  • Patent number: 11220402
    Abstract: A belt conveyor, particularly a weighing belt conveyor includes a frame constructed from at least one side member and at least one cross member or from a supporting plate. Two rollers are mounted on the frame, with an endless belt located around the two rollers whereby the two rollers are mounted in such a way that they can be moved relative to each other in the conveyance direction. At least one adjustment device is provided on the frame for adjusting the separation between the two rollers. The adjustment device includes a rotatable adjusting component, the axis of rotation S of which lies obliquely above or obliquely below the conveyor level at an angle greater than 0° and less than 90°, in order to make an adjustment to the belt tension possible even after the endless belt has been installed.
