The present invention provides a roller chain conveyor for use in bale movers and the like. The roller chain conveyor includes a pair of parallel and spaced apart, elongate roller chains which are arranged to support a bale thereon. The roller chain includes a plurality of links having side plates which are coupled together using pivot pins as in a conventional chain. A plurality of rollers having a diameter which is greater than a depth of the side plates of the links are rotatably mounted on the pivot pins respectively. Guards plates are mounted spaced above each roller for supporting a load on a top side of the roller chain while permitting the rollers to rotate freely. The roller chains are thus supported for longitudinal rolling movement while supporting a load of bales thereon wherein the bales do not engage the rollers. Thus the bales are not damaged by the rollers and the rollers are not subjected to the significant frictional resistance forces normally imposed by the bales supported thereon.
