Abstract: A conveyor system for the local transport of workpieces having a track having rail sections extending next to one another, with portions, inclined differently from one another relative to a horizontal plane, along which load carriers for receiving the workpieces, are movable one behind the other. Each load carrier has a running gear with a first and a second bearing assembly spaced apart from each other relative to the extension of the track and by which the load carriers are guided on the track. In some sections, the relative height positions of two rails section running next to one another are different from one another. The load carriers, which are each guided via their first bearing assembly on one rail section and via their second bearing assembly on one further rail section, are, relative to the direction of travel, horizontally oriented the same at every point of the track.
