- 13 - "LINK FOR A LINKED ROD TYPE CONVEYOR" ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A link for a conveyor chain of the type comprising a plurality of linked rods with each rod defining a straight portion transverse to the chain and a forwardly extending loop member at each end of the straight portion at the sides of the chain. Each loop portion wraps around an edge of the straight portion of the next adjacent link. An additional portion is added to the inner side of the bight of the loop member and defines a curved bearing surface contiguous with the bearing surface defined by the bight. The side edges of the bearing surface taper so the bearing surface is reduced in angular extent as the distance from the bight increases. This allows the additional bearing portion to clear the sprocket wheel which drives the links of the chain. The additional bearing surface significantly reduces wear of the rods thus increasing life expectancy.
