A conveyor chain link has a leading edge, a trailing edge, two opposed side edges, a load carrying upper surface and a bottom face. The leading and trailing edges have pluralities of eye parts separated by openings, such that the trailing edge of one belt link may be arranged in the openings arranged on the leading edge of an adjacent belt link. The belt links are connected either by inserting a traverse rod through apertures in the eye parts or by fitting lateral notches in slots provided in sides of the eye parts on the opposite edge on the sides of the eye parts along one edge. Between the leading and trailing edges and the side edges at least a part of a load carrying surface has a one-sided inclination towards one side edge.

Belt link with half the surface inclined

A conveyer belt, of the type used in endless conveyors, has a plurality of belt links. Each belt link is substantially identical, and has a front edge, a rear edge, two side edges, an upper surface, and an under surface between the edges. The front and rear edges relate to the direction of travel in use. The front edge of each belt link is provided with an indentation and the rear edge is provided with a mirror image of the indentation in the form of a recess. The front edge of one belt link snugly fits in the rear edge of an adjacent belt link.
