A food heating device includes a conveyor belt having a loop provided by a unitary, continuous sheet of metal or other suitable material.

A rod belt for rod belt conveyors of agricultural machinery, having rods situated transversely with respect to the running direction and in parallel to one another, the rods having flattened, perforated fastening areas with which they rest on tensile stress-resistant, continuous elastic belts revolving in parallel to one another, and are connected to the belts by rivets or similar fasteners which pass through the fastening areas and the belts. Thus, a rod belt is provided for rod belt conveying, which allows fastening of functional elements while avoiding the disadvantages stated for the prior art. This is achieved in that in the installed state of the rods, the fastening areas protrude beyond the inner edges of the belts with an overhang area, and have at least one hole in the overhang area for fastening a functional element of the rod belt.

An anti-sticking conveyor belt of a frying machine includes a first transmission axle and a second transmission axle oppositely disposed, two chains, a plurality of connecting rods and a plurality of conveyor strips. Each conveyor strips is made of a high temperature resistant and anti-sticking material, and includes a conveyor belt surface for conveying fried products, a conveyor lower surface away from each conveyor belt surface, and a channel provided outwards between each conveyor belt surface and each conveyor lower surface. As each conveyor belt surface is greater than each conveyor lower surface and with cooperation of the chains, leveled progressing of the conveyor strips is maintained. At arched positions of the first transmission axle and the second transmission axle, the conveyor lower surfaces do not come into contact with one another, and the conveyor belt surfaces arranged are small to obtain an even and flat conveying plane.

A conveyor belt system provides a continuous flat support surface for a food item that moves the food item through a food preparation device. The conveyor belt system includes a conveyor belt having a plurality of spaced apart rods and a plurality of slats that are removably attached to the conveyor belt with a snap on mechanism. The slats are easily assembled and provide enhanced field service and/or replacement capability.

A wire belt conveyor system having an extended belt life. The system having flat faces, or facets, formed by flat-rolling a round wire along the horizontal dimension. The system provides for less stretch along the length of the belt when assembled to provide for lower maintenance costs and extended belt life.

In a multilayer fabric for nonwoven fabric 30, an upper-surface-side fabric formed from upper-surface-side warps (1Ub, 2U, 3U, 4U, 4U, 5Ub, 6U, 7U, 8U, 8U) and upper-surface-side wefts (1U, 2U, 3U, 4U) and a lower-surface-side fabric formed from lower-surface-side warps (1Lb, 2L, 3L, 5Lb, 6L, 7L) and lower-surface-side wefts (1L, 2L, 3L, 4L) are bound together. First warps (1Ub, 5Ub) of the upper-surface-side warps serve as first binding yarns that bind the upper-surface-side fabric and the lower-surface-side fabric, and second warps (1Lb, 5Lb) of the lower-surface-side warps serve as second binding yarns that bind the upper-surface-side fabric and the lower-surface-side fabric. A high-friction yarn is used as at least some of the upper-surface-side warps.

A modular eye link conveyor belt and method of assembling a modular eye link conveyor belt includes (a) welding a plurality of eyelets and bar links to a cross wire having a predetermined module width to form at least one first module row; (b) welding a plurality of eyelets and bar links to a cross wire having a predetermined module width to form at least one second module row; connecting the first module row and the second module row with a cross rod extending through the plurality of eyelets and thereby forming a first module; repeating steps (a) and (b) and forming a second module; and connecting the first module and the second module with a cross rod extending through the plurality of eyelets.
