Abstract
The invention relates to a conveyor comprising a frame and an endless conveyor belt describing a bend, said conveyor belt near its ends being passed over reversing rollers which are journalled in the frame and which are rotatable about axes of rotation. On the outer side of the bend the endless conveyor belt is provided with a projecting collar, with which guide rollers make contact. A guide roller present under said belt and a guide roller present above said belt are connected to a supporting member, which freely rotatably supports a supporting roller for the conveyor belt. Spring means are provided, which act on the supporting member, in such a manner that the guide rollers connected to the supporting member transfer a force directed away from the inner side of the bend to the belt. The two guide rollers are supported by a common support, which is capable of pivoting movement with respect to said supporting member about a pivot pin which intersects the axis of rotation of the supporting roller at least substantially perpendicularly.
