Conveyor mat built up from plastic modules, and module for such conveyor mat

摘要

A conveyor mat built up from hingedly intercoupled plastic modules, each module consisting of a number of substantially equally spaced apart hinge plates extending throughout the length of the module and provided with hinge loops at both ends thereof, the outer hinge plate and a plate-shaped part located on the outer side of a module of at least a number of modules extending to a position below the bottom face of the mat formed by the successive modules or being provided with a recess in the longitudinal direction of the module, the arrangement being such that the thus formed downward extension and/or the recesses form a lateral guide for the conveyor mat and can cooperate with a tubular or U-shaped guide section respectively.
