<p>A conveyor chain (11) for a radiographic inspection system is composed of rigid segments or links (12) which extend over the entire width of the conveyor chain (11) and are joined together in a closed loop. Each segment (12) is coupled by connector elements (16a, 16b, 17a, 17b, 19) to a following segment and a preceding segment, and the segments and connector elements are configured in such a way that neighboring segments can flex against each other substantially from a straight line to a convex angle in relation to the chain loop, so that the conveyor chain (11) is able to conform to conveyor rollers or sprockets (22), but is essentially resistant to flexing in the opposite direction. The segments (12) are configured at least in part as plates of uniform thickness and density and the connector elements are arranged on the segments in such a way that at least one continuous, materially homogenous area (13) of uniform thickness and density is formed in the conveyor chain.</p> |
