Abstract
A chain link conveyor formed of a number of identical plastic chain links with a number of eye-shaped hinge parts being provided in the edge of opposite sides of the individual chain links. The hinge parts are arranged so as to be coupled together with corresponding hinge parts in adjacent chain links by a common pin or pivot. On the underside, between the hinge parts, ribs extend in the conveying direction of the chain link conveyor. The ribs on the underside are configured with transverse openings or grooves so that a vacuum can distribute itself over the entire underside of the chain link when the chain link is used as a chain link vacuum conveyor.
