conveying gap Explanation: I've seen this a lot in patents, but, again, mostly in German or in English translation. The following example gives an explanation of a conveying gap, how it is formed and then used. Perhaps it will match your situation. The belt conveyor 36 of the connecting conveyor 32 exhibits two continuous conveying belts 52, 52' which form a conveying gap 50 and are guided around the deflection roller 34 arranged between the conveyors 10 and 24. The conveying belt 52', which is located radially on the inside with respect to the deflection roller 34, is guided around deflection rollers 54 and a drive roller 54', these being arranged between the two conveyors 10 and 24, while the radially outer conveying belt 52 is guided around deflection rollers 55 which are arranged on the other side in relation to the active strands 20, 20' of the conveyors 10, 24 in order to form, on the side facing the first conveyor 10, an inlet into the conveying gap 50 for the articles 48 running in the conveying direction F1 and, on the side facing the second conveyor 24, a widening outlet. The articles 48 are thus deflected essentially through 1800 by means of the belt conveyor 36, while maintaining their mutual positions in the process.
