Abstract

See full text

A conveyor installation has a track (3) driven to run endlessly about two deflector wheels (100, 101) and supported by guide rails (1, 1', 2), for the conveyance of workpiece carriers which are designed for instance as boxes to accommodate packagings for liquids. The track (3) has two straight portions (3a, 3b). So that it is possible without any cumbersome dismantling work to clean such an installation thoroughly while at the same time providing accurate guidance for the workpieces being conveyed, positioning them precisely at the processing stations, it is according to the invention proposed that the track (3) comprise, closed in itself, a row of links (4) which have their end faces (16) bearing one on another and in which there are recesses for engagement with the guide rails (1, 1', 2) which support the links (4) in the straight portions (3a, 3b) from opposite sides and in the curved portions (3c, 3d) from outside and in that one workpiece carrier is inseparably mounted on each link (4).
