Abstract
An endless rigid slat conveyor is provided with pivotal connections between adjacent slats that are formed by pivotally interengaging arcuate surfaces with abutting planar surfaces between the connections and the flat surface of the formed belt. The connection has an arcuate outer surface facing inwardly of the closed loop belt to engage drive apertures in the sprockets and further to engage a cantilevered support surface of an adjacent belt. The cantilevered support surface has a roller, aligned with the adjacent connection that is supported on a stationary track, so that the connection is directly supported to a stationary track or rail. The rigid slats are constructed in one piece with identical cross sections throughout their axial extent, including reinforcing ribs.
