Abstract: A device for transporting furnace-heated products, particularly hollow glassware to be transported from a glassmaking machine, e.g. a molding machine, to one or more annealing or cooling ovens, has a toothed-chain conveyor on which the furnace-heated product rests on a standing surface. The standing surface of the toothed-chain conveyor is formed from heat-insulating ceramic elements and the ceramic elements are arranged on special pins which project through openings in special tooth plates arranged in the toothed-chain conveyor.

Abstract: A transport gear chain arrangement, in particular for the transport of glass articles, includes two gear chain sections (2 or, respectively, 3) successively following to each other in transport direction. In each case, transport gear chains (6), surrounding and looping around two sprocket wheels (7), are guided on a chain sliding track (26). At least one sprocket wheel (7) is driven in each gear chain section (2; 3). In order to decrease or increase the distance between neighboring articles to be transported on one of the gear chain sections (2 or, respectively, 3), two gear chain sections (2, 3), disposed successively as seen in transport direction (1), are drivable with differently set or settable speeds.
