Automatic gang pickup (automatic leveling) chain conveyor

摘要

An adjustable width chain conveyor is disclosed. The conveyor includes angled supports having inclined slide portions on which the chain can slide inwardly or outwardly to accommodate variations in the effective width of products or to compensate for misalignment of conveyor components as the conveyor wears, beyond the tolerance permitted by the product support surface area. A cover is provided to prevent the chain from tipping off of the conveyor.
