A conveyor, primarily but not exclusively for use in the food industry, in
which a conveyor belt (19) is supported on a belt platform (11) for
movement relative thereto, and the belt platform (11) is formed as a
unitary component from a single sheet metal blank. Preferably the
conveyor includes a support leg structure (12, 13) and that supporting
leg structure is also formed as a unitary component from a single metal
blank. Most preferably the belt platform and the supporting leg structure
are formed as a unitary component from a single metal blank.
