摘要 |
The invention relates to an arrangement for an articulated joining of a first (1a) and a second (1b) links constituting a chain, and a method for joining the links (1a, 1b) into a conveyor chain. The first chain link (1a) carries a connecting dowel pin (11a) extending through head part (2b) of the second chain link (1b) parallel to the first axis of rotation, whereby one of the connecting dowel pin (11a) and head part (2b) exhibits protrusion (12) with a first guiding surface. The second dowel pin (11a) and head part (2b) exhibit seat (10) which is in gliding contact with protrusion (12) and has a second guiding surface, complementary to the first gliding surface. The gliding surfaces are curved around the first as well as the second axes of rotation and thus form a link defining the first and the second axes of rotation. |
