Abstract
A chain link conveyor comprises modules made of an organic plastic material and pivotably connected to one another. Each module is designed to be extruded as a slab and machined to form a module comprising intermediate sections, reinforcing center sections and a number of parallel spaced link end sections having aligned holes for receiving pivot rods. The module also includes a specially designed rib adapted to interact with suitable drive means of a conveyor system.
