Abstract

A conveyor support way for a table top chain comprises a series of alternating first and second cross members in spaced disposition transverse to the axis of the conveyor support way. Each of the first cross members contains a first pair of open top spaces and each of said second cross members contains a second pair of open top spaces, the first pair of spaces being disposed laterally inwardly of the second pair of spaces. A pair of serpentine wear strips are provided to support the chain, each of the wear strips extending along the length of the series of cross members, alternately through an associated one of the first cross member spaces and through an associated one of the second cross member spaces. Each wear strip is axially slidably and easily removably mounted on the series of cross members.
