Abstract

A conveying chain including a plurality of chain links connected to each other. The chain links are connected to each other via articulated connections so as to each be pivotable about a first axis and about a second axis oriented perpendicular to the first axis in order to form the conveying chain. The conveying chain is constructed of identical chain links. The chain links each include a receptacle on a first end section and a coupling body on a second end section that engages in the receptacle of an adjacent chain link, wherein the receptacle and the coupling body are shaped such that the receptacle and the coupling body can be connected to each other via an insertion-rotation motion in order to form the articulated connection.
