Abstract
A conveyor with elongate side members with each member being of irregular shape in section. An inclined surface of each side member partially supports an endless conveyor belt with a mid-portion of the belt supported at intervals by fixed conveyor crossmembers. The crossmembers are molded from material having a low coefficient of friction to adequately support the belt and loads thereon while serving to rigidly interconnect the side members of the conveyor. Fastener assemblies extending through the crossmember ends and abutting portions of the side members couple same yet permit convenient crossmember replacement. Drive means powers a conveyor pulley. Top and bottom covers confine airborne dust particles.
