Patent attributes
A roller conveyor installation (1) includes a curved roller conveyor (2) for conveying piece goods, optionally from a first conveying strip to a second conveying strip oriented in a different direction. The first and second conveying strips are roller conveyors (3, 4) with driven rollers (9) that extend at an angle to the conveying strip. The curved roller conveyor (2) includes, at an angle to the conveying strip, radially extending, spaced-apart individual rollers (5) that are driven by a common revolving driving belt. A revolving driving belt is configured as a V-belt (6) which is guided in coaxial drive rollers (13) or coaxial peripheral sections of the individual rollers (5) both at the upper end in the V-belt upper strand (6a) and at the bottom end in the V-belt lower strand (6b) in the same V-belt guide. The V-belt (6) is held in the V-belt guide from above in the V-belt upper strand (6a) and from below in the V-belt lower strand (6b) by floating upper or lower press rollers (14). The press rollers (14) lie between the individual rollers (5) and are rotationally fastened on a preferably radial outer curve frame part (15) of the curved roller conveyor (2).
