ABSTRACT:
A conveying apparatus (100) includes a frame (102) and a conveyor (104). The conveyor (104) includes a plurality of spaced article-support members (132) having planar undersurfaces (138). The article-support members (132) are supported on the frame (102) by a plurality of spaced supporting surfaces such as roller bearings (116). Connecting links (154), which connect adjacent pairs of article-support members (132), have planar undersurfaces (164) which are in planar alignment with the undersurface (138) of the article-support members (132) to provide a continuous planar undersurface for the conveyor (104) at least when the article-support members are being supported on the roller bearings (116) of the frame (102). The conveying apparatus (100) is used as an element of a cable-fleeting drum (10) for facilitating an oceanographic cable laying operation.
