Abstract (en)
The present invention provides a low costs sheet transport apparatus comprising an endless air permeable belt (101). An endless protrusion (102) is secured onto the belt and extending a predetermined height out of the surface of the belt. A plurality of rollers (110-113) comprising a driving roller (110) driveable by means of an actuator (122) and at least one support roller (111-113) positioned with respect to the driving roller to tension the belt over the plurality of rollers, such that a rotation of the driving roller moves the belt in a transport direction (D) is provided. At least one of the plurality of rollers comprises an endless recess (115) dimensioned to receive the protrusion, such that the protrusion is substantially prevented from transferring driving forces in the transport direction from the plurality of rollers to the belt. The protrusion is suspended within the recess such that it is prevented from transferring forces in the transport direction to belt.
