ABSTRACT:
A monorail suspended conveyor system for conveying materials along a curvilinear path has a plurality of tandemly disposed belt supporting carriages, each carriage having a framework which defines an open extent extending longitudinally therethrough and includes a upper elongated tubular link member and a lower pair of transversely spaced apart side members disposed on opposite sides of the open extent. Adjacent carriages are connected by an articulated joint suspended from the overhead rail and provides for universal movement of one carriage relative to another. The ends of adjacent side members are provided with cooperating structures to selectively limit the lateral swing of the carriages transversely with respect to the longitudinal movement thereof along the curvilinear path, thereby maintaining the conveying belt in a generally horizontal operating mode.
