Abstract

A chain conveyor in which two chains are connected together by scrapers and circulate in a casing, which are guided around rollers. In the direction of movement of the chain, in front of and above the entry of the chain into a roller, a shaped component is provided. The latter penetrates into the roller over a portion of the roller circumference. On its side remote from the roller, the shaped component is equipped with a deflector surface pointing towards the interior of the casing, the front edge of which surface is aligned with the shaped component.
