ABSTRACT:
A conveyor system for conducting cans which are freshly coated with an ink or other coating through a chamber to dry or cure the coating, the chamber being provided with an energy-emitting source adapted to dry or cure the coating. In order to effect uniform exposure of the cans which are subjected to directed energy from the source, the system includes an endless link belt having a train of pins thereon which extend laterally into the chamber to support the cans, the belt being driven at a controllable speed to advance the cans through the chamber. Also included is an endless sprocket chain which cooperates with sprocket wheels mounted on the outer ends of the pins to cause the pins and the cans supported thereby to rotate as the cans advance through the chamber, the sprocket chain being driven in a selected direction and at a controllable speed relative to the speed of the belt, whereby the direction of can rotation and the rotary rate thereof are adjustable to optimize the drying or curing of the cans.
