Method for mounting a conveyor chain for a pallet belt of a moving walkway

A method for mounting a conveyor chain for a pallet belt of a moving walkway, and a conveyor chain, includes providing elongated connecting elements for fastening pallets to the conveyor chain, coupling the connecting elements in one coupling process to one another and to chain links that are coupled to one another, such that the connecting elements are arranged one behind the other parallel to the extension direction of the conveyor chain, and each of the connecting elements is coupled at a first end to an associated first one of two-piece chain pins and coupled at a second end to an associated second one of the two-piece chain pins, wherein a connecting element spacing distance between the first and second two-piece chain pins is an integral multiple of the chain spacing distance.
