FLEXIBLE CONVEYOR TRACK ASSEMBLY Robert L, Alldredge Eduard W. VanLingen Abstract of the disclosure A flexible conveyor track assembly has segmented rails forming upper and lower runs, with the segments having tongues and recesses aligned with respect to the direction of conveyor travel on the respective runs. The individual segments of each upper rail are joined to a segment of a lower rail by connect- ing plates, and laterally spaced resilient guide rods string together the connecting plates on each lateral side of the assembly and have rubber spring dampers between adjacent connecting plates to damp segment vibration. A series of pivotally connected, elongated links, each longer than a single rail segment, runs the length of the segmented rails to control the curvature of the assembly, each link being attached to a segment of each rail. In an alternative embodiment, the track assembly is hung from a monorail and the series of links is re- placed with an external draw bar between monorail hangers at the opposite ends of the assembly.
