Abstract
The invention relates to a transport bag () having a roll running gear () which comprises only one pair of rolls () on which it is oscillatingly mounted in the transport rail (). The upper coupling () of the transport bag () is located above the rolls () and enables driving and transport by means of a conveying element () which preferably has a commercially available roller chain having driver pins. The disengagement of the drivers and the upper coupling parts () is prevented by the design of the transport bag () in that the transport bag () generates a sufficient torque (M) around the roll axis (), and the permissible inclination of the upper coupling () relative to the vertical () during transport along conveyor paths is not exceeded, so that more reliable entrainment of the transport bag () is guaranteed. The curved-angle track switches () for the conveyor system have few parts and are therefore cost-effective and operationally reliable.
