A conveyor system (5) moves one or more articles in at least a conveying direction along an endless path having a forward run and a return run. The system includes an endless chain (10) having lateral side edges (12) spaced apart in a direction transverse to the conveying direction (C) , and at least one link (13) having a surface intermediate of the side edges (12). A chain support (50) positioned between the side edges (12) includes an axle (56) extending in the transverse direction for rotatably supporting a roller (52) for engaging the surface of the link. The roller provides enhanced, low friction support for the chain intermediate of the side edges.

L'invention concerne un système de bande transporteuse (5) qui déplace au moins un article dans au moins une direction de transport le long d'un chemin sans fin ayant un trajet aller et un trajet retour. Le système comporte une chaîne sans fin (10) ayant des bords latéraux (12) espacés transversalement par rapport à la direction de transport (C), et au moins un maillon (13) présentant une surface en position intermédiaire entre les bord latéraux (12). Un support de chaîne (50) placé entre les bords latéraux (12) comporte un axe (56) s'étendant transversalement de manière à supporter rotatif un galet (52) afin de venir en prise avec la surface du maillon. Le galet fournit un support à faible frottement amélioré au niveau de la chaîne en position intermédiaire entre les bords latéraux.
