Conveying belts 1A and 1B have stopping members 6A and 6B. After a sheet bundle is placed on a placement area of the conveying belts, a driving control part controls a guide driving part 4 so that a regulating guide 2 sandwiches the sheet bundle from both sides in the width direction, controls a belt driving part 3 so that the stopping member 6B is made to abut on a first end surface of the sheet bundle and a second end surface is made to abut on the stopping member 1A, and thereafter, controls the driving parts 3 and 4 so that the sheet bundle is conveyed along the regulating guide 2 in a state of being sandwiched from the front and the back by the stopping members 6A and 6B.

A harvester head may include a roller having a groove and supporting a draper belt. The draper belt may include a web and an elastomeric belt guide projecting from web, wherein the belt guide has outer side surfaces extending at an angle of no greater than 100 relative to the second surface when the belt guide wrapping about the roller within the groove. The groove may have outer side surfaces, each outer side surface extending at angle of no greater than hundred degrees relative to an outer surface of the roller.

Device for conveying piece goods along a conveying path includes a sorting device for sorting piece goods, track profile members extending transversely to a track conveying direction and connected together to form an endless conveyor track with an upper and a lower run. The upper run has a conveyor surface for conveying the piece goods in the track conveying direction. Push shoes are successive along the conveying path and each is displaceable along at least one track profile member of the track profile members so as to constrainedly displace the piece goods laterally on the conveyor surface transversely to the track conveying direction of the endless conveyor track. A drive drives the endless conveyor track in the track conveying direction. Each push shoe includes a guide roller, which is arranged below the upper run and mounted to be rotatable about an axis of rotation extending transversely to the conveyor surface.

A draper belt assembly may include a roller and a web. The roller may include a first groove having a first interior side surface facing in a first direction and a second groove having a second interior side surface facing in the first direction. The draper belt may include a web, and first and second elastomeric belt guides received within the first groove and the second groove, respectively. The first belt guide may have a first exterior side surface facing in a second direction opposite the first direction and axially spaced from the first interior side surface by first distance. The second belt guide may have a second exterior side surface facing in the second direction, axially spaced from the second interior side surface by second distance greater than the first distance in absence of axial loads to the draper belt.

Synchronous belt systems include two or more sprockets, a first endless belt, and a second endless belt. The belts are connected together with belts attachment hardware through belt ports, and a belts gap is defined between the first endless belt and the second endless belt. Each of the sprockets includes sprocket teeth and sprocket tooth spaces between adjacent teeth of the sprocket teeth, and each of the sprockets has a sprocket center ridge. The belts each include a plurality of belt split teeth, and each split tooth of the plurality of belt split teeth has a first belt ridge, a second belt ridge and a belt split tooth space disposed between the belt ridges. The belts gap engages the sprocket center ridge of each of the sprockets, and each of the belts attachment hardware is disposed within the adjacent belt split tooth spaces of the belts.

The groove may have outer side surfaces, each outer side surface extending at angle of no greater than hundred degrees relative to an outer surface of the roller.

A draper belt for a head of a harvester that is to extend about a roller having an outer groove encircling the roller and may include a web and an elastomeric belt guide. The web may have a first surface to carry crop material and a second surface to face the roller. The elastomeric belt guide may extend from the second surface and may include downwardly projecting teeth.

A transfer module assembly includes a frame, a conveyor belt with internal rotating elements, where the conveyor belt is supported by the frame, conveyor drive rollers supported by the frame and configured to drive the conveyor belt, a flat transfer belt mounted beneath the conveyor belt and configured to contact undersides of the internal rotating elements of the conveyor belt in operation, and flat transfer belt drive rollers supported by the frame and configured to drive the flat transfer belt. The conveyor drive rollers are friction-based and operate without use of a sprocket, and comprise depressions for receiving the internal rotating elements of the conveyor belt.
