Abstract
A chain link for a curved conveyor chain, the chain link comprising a base body and a bolt, the base body having an articulation section and a fork section and a carrier means for carrying material that is to be conveyed, the bolt being elongated and designed in a circular cylindrical manner in at least one central section. In the articulation section, a bolt opening is provided through which the bolt can pass and can rotate relative to at least two axes. The fork section has an articulation recess for receiving the articulation section of an adjoining identical chain link, the fork section having two opposite bolt recesses which can receive the opposite ends of the bolt of the adjoining chain link. The articulation and fork sections of two adjoining, identical chain links are maintained at a distance by two slide sections.
