Abstract

A guide means for individually adjusting each of the carrier belts of a multi-belt horizontal belt filter is disclosed. The guide means includes a plurality of support rollers, each having a rotatable roller segment which is held in rolling contact with a respective carrier belt. The remaining structure of the support roller is held out of contact with the remaining carrier belts. Each support roller is made adjustable as to orientation and location whereby a selectively directioned force may be applied to a given carrier belt to adjust its direction of travel.
