Abstract

A belt module comprising an intermediate section having a top surface. A first plurality of link ends have opposed side walls that provide the first link ends with a first transverse thickness. The transverse thickness is connected to the intermediate section at a first proximal portion and extends from the intermediate section in a direction of belt travel to a first distal portion at the link ends. The first link ends have a first opening through the thickness between and to the opposed side walls. The first opening is disposed transverse to the direction of belt travel. The belt module also includes a second plurality of link ends having opposed side walls providing the second link ends with a second transverse thickness. The second transverse thickness is connected to the intermediate section at a second proximal portion and extends from the intermediate section in a direction opposite to the first link ends to a second distal portion at the link ends. The second link ends have a second opening through the thickness between and to the opposed side walls. The second opening is disposed transverse to the direction of belt travel. At least one link end of the first and second plurality of link ends has a vent defined therein at the distal portion.
