ABSTRACT:
The endless single cable conveyor with lugs moving in a guide channel for engaging either an article to be conveyed or a carrier for the article has the lugs molded of a synthetic resin onto the cable in triangular shape and received within a complimentary shaped channel for both the conveying run and the returned run respectively. With such complementary triangular shapes for both the lug and its channel, the channel may be bent in any direction as desired for the conveyor without fear of the lug moving out of the channel, and if excessive wear occurs to the portion of the lug extending beyond the channel to engage the article, the lug may be removed from the channel, rotated 120.degree., and reinserted within the channel to present a new article engaging portion that is undamaged. The channels are constructed opposite each other with a box beam between them, and the entire channel and box beam assembly is constructed in one piece by extrusion. The cable with molded lugs will leave the channel to pass around drive sprockets and direction changing sprockets, and reenter the channel through a transition portion wherein the side walls of the channel are flaired outwardly away from each other to receive and guide the lugs into the channel.
