ABSTRACT:
Fork-shaped links on a conveyor chain allow the chain to follow sharp curves in a right angle to the plane of the links as well as allowing oscillation of adjacent links in the same plane as the links. Each link has a crosspiece and a pair of arms. A seat of articulation and oscillation having a central narrowing is positioned on the crosspiece. The crosspiece is inserted between the arms of an adjacent link, and a pin having a longitudinal flattening is inserted with the flattened portion facing the central narrowing, through holes in the arm, and through the seat.
