The present invention relates to a side bow conveyor chain whose respective chain links are interconnected by a chain hinge which is adapted to be pivoted about a first and a second axis, said chain hinge comprising a pivot bolt which is arranged along said first axis, a pivot pin which is arranged along said second axis and through which the pivot bolt extends, and a reception sleeve, which extends along the second axis and in which the pivot pin is pivotable relative to the reception sleeve about said second axis. The reception sleeve is provided with lateral pivot openings which allow the pivot bolt to pass through. The stability of such a chain is improved by the features that inner and outer chain links are provided in alternating succession, that an inner chain link comprises a reception sleeve on either end thereof and at least one inner link plate interconnecting said reception sleeves, that an outer chain link comprises a pivot bolt and a pivot pin on either end thereof and at least two outer link plates interconnecting the same, and that each of the end faces of the at least two outer link plates laterally encompasses a reception sleeve of a neighbouring inner chain link. The inner and outer link plates, which are arranged such that they are set up on edge, extend vertically to the first axis when the chain moves straight ahead.

Side bow conveyor chain with inner and outer chain links

A chain link ( ) of a curved conveyor chain has been proposed, which has a carrying device ( ) for transport material. A head part ( ) disposed under the carrying device ( ) has a lateral bore ( ) for a pin ( ) of a first adjacent chain link ( ). The head part ( ) is adjoined by a fork-shaped section ( ) with two legs ( ), which encompass the head part ( ) of a second adjacent chain link ( ). The legs ( ) and contain lateral bores ( ). A pin ( ) is also provided, which is contained in the lateral bores ( ) of the legs ( ) and in the head part ( ) of the second adjacent chain link ( ). Projections ( ) protrude from the legs ( ) and are designed to be guided in a guide profile and driven by means of a driving wheel. The object of the invention is to produce a chain link ( ), which permits a favorable introduction of force. To this end, the protrusions ( ) are disposed between the lateral bores ( ) of the legs ( ) and the at least one lateral bore ( ) of the head part ( ), viewed in the transport direction ( ).
