Abstract

A fastener and fastener assembly for coupling the ends of a conveyor belt to form a continuous belt where the preferred embodiment is a belt fastener having an upper and lower arm connected by a loop, and having a belt stop positioned to limit insertion of a conveyor belt end. The assembly utilizes a first and second set of fasteners mounted on opposite belt ends which intermesh to define a hinge passage for a hinge pin to couple the belt ends together. The reach-back of the belt ends into the belt fasteners is maximized as the belt stops are aligned with their belt loops and positioned to abut the belt end at a location where the exterior surface of a belt loop of the opposite belt fasteners is engaging or nearly engaging the belt end.
