Abstract
A plastic conveyor belt formed of a large number of plastic belt modules includes plastic connecting rods, serially connecting belt modules, which are discontinuous in length. The discontinuous rods are made up of several coaxial pieces held in place by press fitting at the outer ends. Integral sideplates are disclosed for plastic conveyor belts, eliminating the need for separate tension-accepting sideplates secured to the outside edges of radius belts.
