Abstract
A drive system for a curved, live roller conveyor comprised of two groups of rollers is disclosed. The drive system includes separate drives, one for each group of rollers and a common power source for rotatably driving each of the separate drives. Each roller group drive includes a pair of parallel arranged drive shafts which drive corresponding individual rollers through an elastomeric belt entrained about pulleys affixed to the drive shaft and the rollers.
