ABSTRACT:
An automatic method of and apparatus for taking up slack or relieving undue tension in a closed loop chain conveyor traveling in a corresponding track loop by dividing the track into separate sections, sensing the elongation or contraction in the chain in one section, and responding to such sensing to move the other track section away from or toward the said one track section to compensate for the chain length variation.
