Abstract:
1. An article conveyor belt assembly in which an article is pushed by pushers integrally provided on a toothed belt having teeth for transmission of motive power with predetermined pitches, comprising: the pushers each having a mount part for mounting on the toothed belt and a pushing part for the article integrally formed on the mount part, wherein the mount part being formed in a gate shape by a tooth-side holder is positioned on a tooth side of the toothed belt and a non-tooth-side holder is positioned on a non-tooth side; and a connecter connecting the mount part on one side-edge side of the toothed belt, and having a hook formed at a tip of at least the tooth-side holder or the non-tooth-side holder to engage with an end edge on a non-connecter side of the toothed belt, wherein the mount part includes a cantilevered tooth side holder and a cantilevered non-tooth side holder with a space separating the tooth side holder and the non-tooth side holder configured to receive a thickness of the toothed belt, the mount part is configured of a material flexible enough to enable the tooth belt to deform a position of the hook for mounting and removing the pusher, and the pushers each have a pushing part unit integrally formed with the mount part including a first cantilevered shaft and a second cantilevered shaft spaced from each other, and a hollow roller configured to snap mount for capturing the respective first cantilevered shaft and the second cantilevered shaft.
