Abstract
A holding system for the backup rollers of a belt conveyor. The system comprises a holding bar secured to the backup roller and a backup lever secured via a joint to the center of the holding bar. The backup lever is pivotable against the driving drum of the conveyor. The backup lever comprises a power arm arranged below a load arm. The power arm is engaged by a draw spindle for adjusting the force of the contract pressure of the backup roller. The roller is comprised of a plurality of roller segments with spacer rings between the segments. The system eliminates the need for adjusting the holder during the operation and allows the rollers to be removed without dismantling the system.
