Abstract

See full text

A conveyor system moves one or more articles in at least a conveying direction along an endless path having a forward run and a return run. The system includes an endless chain having lateral side edges spaced apart in a direction transverse to the conveying direction, and at least one link having a surface intermediate of the side edges. A chain support positioned between the side edges includes an axle extending in the transverse direction for rotatably supporting a roller for engaging the surface of the link. The roller provides enhanced, low friction support for the chain intermediate of the side edges.
