Abstract
An improved belted chain is described in which there are a plurality of pairs of chain rods secured to spaced-apart carriers and a central belt. The inner ends of the chain rods in each pair are aligned end-to-end with each other and then secured to the central belt. The outer ends are secured to the spaced-apart carriers. Preferably the central belt is composed of rubber. The chain rods in each pair are able to be flexed relative to each other without danger of breaking the rods.
