Abstract:

Primary and secondary conveyor belts have portions aligned in mutually parallel relation. At least one of the conveyor belts includes flites and sideguards projecting toward a surface of the other conveyor belt for defining between confronting portions of the conveyor belts a plurality of chambers for enclosing the product to be conveyed. The flites and pluralities of side guards project substantially perpendicularly relative to each other, whereby the chambers formed thereby are of substantially rectangular configuration, interpositioned between successive flites. The side guards of a primary conveyor are interdigitated between the flites and other side guards projecting outwardly from the other conveyor belt, for minimizing any leakage of particulate material from the chambers.
