ABSTRACT:
A pallet track for supporting a plurality of pallets for gravity movement along an inclined path with the pallet tracks including a speed retarder or brake associated with an endless chain conveyor assembly having an upper flight supportingly engaging the under surface of a pallet. The conveyor assembly chains are constructed with a plurality of pivotally interconnected components with each of the components including offset mating edge portions receiving a pivot pin which also serves as an axle for a roller which has a periphery depending below the inner surfaces or edges of the chain for supporting engagement with a backing rail or track and also for engagement in peripheral notches in end sprocket wheels. A plurality of the pallet tracks are arranged in longitudinal alignment to form the inclined path with a conveyor chain being disposed in underlying relation to each end portion of the pallet generally in alignment with the pallet stringers. The upper surface of each of the conveyor chains defines a substantially smooth and continuous supporting surface for engagement with the pallet substantially throughout the length of the pallet.
