PURPOSE:To continuously convey articles efficiently and quickly by providing a conveyer apparatus using an endless chain constructed so that a chain guide frame is disposed along the rotating locus of the chain, and a circular-arc auxiliary guide frame is disposed in a circular-arc transport area. CONSTITUTION:Two pairs of substantially rectangular guide frames 4, 4', 5, 5' are shifted vertically and longitudinally and the four corners thereof are bent like a circular-arc having the same radius. Endless chains 6, 6' fitted with trays 7 are guided along the guide frames 5, 5'. Circular-arc auxiliary guide frames 8 having the substantially same radius as the circular-arcs of the endless chains 6, 6' are disposed in the circular-arc transport areas where the guide frames 4, 4' and the chain guide frames 5, 5' intersect. In this arrangement, the trays are supported by the guide frames 4, 4', 5, 5' and the auxiliary guides 8 of the circular-arc portions to ensure the stable attitude of the trays. |
