CONVEYOR SYSTEM UNIT AND ENDLESS CONVEYOR SYSTEM

A conveyor system unit (10) configured to form part of an endless conveyor system (50) is disclosed. According to the disclosure, each conveyor system unit (10) comprises a pair of slats (11, 12), each slat having a carrying surface (13) with a first and a second long side edge portion (21, 22) and two short side edge portions (23), and at each short side edge portion (23) a side wall (24) is arranged. In the conveyor system unit (10) the pair of slats (11, 12) are arranged side by side with a first long side edge portion (21) of the first slat (11) facing a second long side edge portion (22) of the second slat (12), and the pair of slats (11, 12) are interconnected by an elastomeric matrix (30) extending across the carrying surfaces (13) and two opposing side walls (24) of the first and second slats (11, 12). The elastomeric matrix (30) further comprises a connecting portion (31) extending between the pair of slats (11, 12) and side walls (24) thereby forming a continuous carrying surface (13) and side walls (24) of the conveyor system unit (10), wherein the connecting portion (31) forms a hinged connection between the pair of slats (11, 12) and side walls (24), and wherein the elastomeric matrix (30) is fastened to the pair of slats (11, 12) and to the side walls (24). An endless conveyor system (50) is also disclosed.
