Abstract
A conveying device including a circulatorily led, extensively extended conveying element that forms a conveying section with a conveying surface and a return section, a front head-end region, in which the conveying element is deflected from the conveying section into the return section in the movement direction of the conveying element, and a braking device that exerts a braking effect upon the driven conveying element. The braking device includes a braking surface that, by way of the sliding friction with the conveying element, at least partly exerts the braking effect upon the driven conveying element. The braking device is designed and arranged such that it exerts the braking effect upon the conveying element outside the front head-end region as well as outside the conveying section. The braking surface is designed in an essentially bent manner and is wrapped by a part of the conveying element.
