摘要

The drive belt(21) of the conveyor has belt components and a number of rotatably mounted contact rollers(27) arranged in series in the belt's longitudinal direction and for side contact of the article carriers(5) to be transported. Each belt component is a plate link chain with the links(23) hinge-interconnected by pins(25), with a rotatable contact roller provided on each pin and co-axial to the pin axis. Adjacent contact rollers may be alternately offset in relation to each other in the direction of the contact roller axes and overlapping each other in the belt's longitudinal direction.
