Abstract: Construction element for a device for forward feeding of product carriers (16), which construction element comprises a first beam section (14) presenting a main rail (15) intended to carry product carriers (16) movably resting on said main rail (15), a second beam section presenting a console intended to carry an endless belt (1) or chain, which is intended to contribute to the forward feeding of said product carrier (16), and guiding means (19) running along said main rail (15) intended to retain product carriers (16) on the main rail (15), and also a device for forward feeding of product carriers including such a construction element.
Abstract: Product carrier, moveable along a conveyor track (33, 34) in a conveyor arrangement, and designed as a trolley, which has two wheel units (3, 4) which are moved along the conveyor track. Suspended from each wheel unit is a carrier arm (5, 6) for the products that are to be conveyed. The carrier arms (5, 6) are connected to one another by means of a positioning mechanism (9), which maintains a selected essential distance (a) between the wheel units (5, 6) regardless of the inclination of the track.
