The invention discloses a chain wheel conveyor. The chain wheel conveyor comprises a conveyor support, a reel chain, a transmission gear and a plurality of rollers. A driving chain wheel is disposed on the end portion of at least one side of the conveyor support, and a driven chain wheel is disposed at the other end, relative to the driving chain wheel, of the conveyor support. The driving chain wheel is connected with the driven chain wheel through the reel chain, and rotating chain wheels are arranged on the end portions of the rollers. The reel chain is placed on the lower portions of the rotating chain wheels, and the reel chain meshes with the rotating chain wheels. The two ends of the rollers are fixed to the conveyor support. The transmission gear is connected with the driving chainwheel, and drives the rotation of the driving chain wheel, thereby sequentially driving the transmission of the reel chain and the rotation of the rotating chain wheels. The chain wheel conveyor hasa simple structure, rapid maintenance, convenient installation and disassembly and a long service life.
