Abstract: A closed continuous conveyor for pallets has an upper run and a lower run, which respectively form an upper and a lower conveyor track with reversal sections in which deflecting elements are arranged, of which at least one is connected to and driven by an engine, with tension elements rotating endlessly in the upper and lower runs and in the reversal sections, which engage the deflecting elements in the reversal sections and are driven by them. At least one rotating pallet is carried by the tension elements. At least one closure element is fixed to the underside of the pallet and engages in the reversal section with a second form closure element or frictional closure element that rotates around a fixed axis of rotation. The closure element includes at least one elastic buffer component.

Abstract: The invention relates to a closed continuous conveyor (1) for pallets (20), with an upper run (2) and the lower run (3), which form an upper and a lower conveyor track (4, 5), with reversal sections (6) connected to each other with such two runs (2, 3), in which deflecting elements (7) are arranged, of which at least one is connected to an engine (8) and can be driven by it, with tension elements (9) rotating endlessly in the upper and lower runs (2, 3) and in the reversal sections (6), which are in engagement with the deflecting elements (7) in the reversal sections (6) and are driven by them, with at least one rotating pallet (20), which is carried by the tension elements (9) and rotates with this.
