Abstract
A laterally articulable belt conveyor assembly is provided. The assembly has a central chain forming a loop extending around a first roller wheel and a second roller wheel, a plurality of elongate slats operably coupled to the central chain and each having rolling members at their lateral ends, a belt operably coupled to each of the plurality of elongate slats, the belt configured to carry excavated muck from a loading end portion to an unloading end portion. The assembly further includes a plurality of guide rail pairs each forming a gap for receiving the rolling members therebetween and directing the plurality of elongate slats along the gap. The guide rail pairs can be articulable from a straight configuration to a curved configuration, where the belt travels in a laterally curved path. The guide rail pairs can be telescoping in length to adjust to the curved configuration.
