71332-14 Abstract For use in a conveyor system, such as used in a mining operation, a belt guidance arrangement comprising upper and lower pairs of belt bending rollers, one of each of the pairs of rollers being mounted on a first, static frame and the other of each of the pairs of rollers being mounted on a second frame angled horizontally with respect to the first frame, and an endless belt is wrapped over the pair of rollers. In a first embodiment at least each one or each other of the pairs of rollers is mounted for roller center adjustable movement longitudinally of the direction of movement of the belt. Provision is made for adjustment of the centers of the movable rollers longitudinally of the belt to compensate for relative angling of the rollers in each pair to avoid undue stress upon the belt as a result of such angling and to maintain alignment and training of the belt in passing through the rollers. Two other embodiments are described in which the distance between the external surfaces of roller pairs are adjusted other than by roller center longitudinal movement, each involving mechanical arrangements for increasing and decreasing the outer diameters of the roller.
