Summary:A belt conveyor having a belt reversing mechanism for reversing a belt at an upstream portion and a downstream portion of the belt on the return side. The belt reversing mechanism has two sets of pinch rollers and two sets of guide roller mechanisms. The two sets of pinch rollers are arranged spaced in the direction of movement of the belt and support the belt. The belt is reversed 180 degrees between the pinch roller sets and twisted at the center of the span between the pinch roller sets to form a tubular shape having an open cross section with a contaminated surface of the belt held inside. The two sets of guide roller mechanisms are arranged spaced in the direction of movement of the belt and guide the belt from the outside with the belt keeping the tubular shape. The two sets of pinch rollers and the two sets of guide roller mechanisms are arranged so that the belt forms a catenary curve or a curve approximate to this catenary curve.
