- 22 - ANGULAR TRAVEL MODULATOR FOR CONVEYOR BELTS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE When it is necessary to change the direction of travel of a loaded conveyor belt, it is usual to provide two conveyor belt run one above the other with the upper loaded belt run dumping the material over the end onto the upper run of the lower belt run which extends in a different direction. This prevents any adjustment of the-angular relationship from taking place. The present invention includes a shell slide block with balls journalled for rotation thereon, adjustably mounted within limits, upon a frame carrying a belt engaging roller at one end spaced from the shell slide block. A single conveyor belt includes the loaded upper run which passes over the shell slide block changes direction and passes over the roller and then passes under the shell slide block to receive the load dumping from the upper run as it passes over the shell slide block. The upper run can enter the modulator at various angles to the exit direction and the shell slide block can be adjusted by an hydraulic or air operated cylinder. The return run of the belt can be routed similarly or may be returned by other direc- tional changing means.
