Kind Code:

Abstract:
A device for monitoring a conveyor belt in which a sensor can be fixed easily to the body without using any special fixing means and the properties of the conveyor belt can be detected with high precision. The device for monitoring the conveyor belt comprises a body to be detected embedded in a conveyor belt (6) running endlessly, and a sensor (7) provided oppositely thereto in the body. The sensor (7) detects the variation in properties of the conveyor belt by detecting variation of the body to be detected due to the variation in properties of the conveyor belt (6). The sensor (7) is secured to a shaft (5) which supports a hollow roller (4) for guiding the conveyor belt (6) in the conveyance direction rotatably on the body in the roller (4) thus making the sensor (7) itself nonrotatable.
