FIBER FILLED CHAIN LINK FOR A MODULAR CONVEYER CHAIN

摘要

A modular chain link for use in constructing a modular conveyer chain. The modular chain link includes a plurality of link ends which are adapted to intermesh with link ends on a similar adjacent link. The link ends include openings which are substantially axially aligned with openings on the adjace nt link ends. The openings are adapted to receive a connecting pin for pivotall y joining the adjacent modular chain links together. The modular chain link is injection molded from a polymer and comprises less than about 30 weight percent of filler in order to maximize the mechanical properties of the modular chain link.
