ABSTRACT:
A tray-type elevator conveyor for conveying a rack or load carrier is provided with an endless conveyor chain, an outer pair of straddle levers for pivotally suspending the load carrier, and an inner pair of straddle levers pivotally connected to the conveyor chain at one end and to the outer straddle levers at the other end. The length and number of inner straddle levers are variable for accommodating different paths of travel around the curved portion of the conveyor and for supporting different sizes of load carriers. By using the inner straddle levers to connect the chain and outer straddle levers, the path around the curved portion of travel on the chain can approximate a portion of a circle.
