A conversion kit and a method for inexpensively converting a roller conveyor into a belt conveyor. The converted conveyor (30) is made from a roller conveyor that has a frame (32) with two parallel sides supporting a set of parallel rollers (34) at spaced apart locations. A conversion kit is used to make the conversion. The kit includes attachment collars (36) that fit around selected rollers and wearstrip material (38) that extends outward from the attachment collars and overlies a group of consecutive collars. The wearstrip material and the collars resting on the rollers form a carryway bed on which a conveyor belt (50) or chain is supported.

La présente invention concerne un équipement de conversion et un procédé permettant de convertir, de manière économique, un transporteur à rouleaux en un transporteur à courroie. Le transporteur convertible (30) correspond à un transporteur à rouleaux présentant une structure (32) à deux côtés latéraux parallèles servant de support à un ensemble de rouleaux parallèles (34) espacés entre eux. Un équipement de conversion est utilisé pour réaliser la conversion. L'équipement comprend des colliers de fixation (36) qui s'adaptent autour des rouleaux sélectionnés et une bande de protection (38) qui s'étend vers l'extérieur des colliers de fixation et recouvre un ensemble de collier successifs. La bande de protection et les colliers reposant sur les rouleaux forment une bande de support sur laquelle est supportée la courroie (50) ou bande transporteuse.
