Abstract
An endless dough conveyoris provided with a resin endless toothed beltinstead of a metal chain. A toothed pulleyaround which the endless toothed belt is wound is also made of resin. A railis disposed adjacent to a horizontal path of the belt, and a rollerattached to the belt is adapted to roll on the rail. At least two induction motors are provided for driving the endless toothed belt. The induction motors are supplied with electric power from a single inverterAt least a pulley is provided with a detecting unitThe detecting unitdetects a state in which teeth of the endless toothed belt climb onto that of the pulley, thereby predicting breakage of the belt. Thus, it is possible to prevent contamination of dough in a proofer.
