[0002] An overhead conveyor chain is a conveyor chain specifically designed for use in overhead conveyors or overhead conveyor lines. It mainly consists of components such as the chain, track, hangers, supports, drive seats, and adjustment seats. The chain is the core of the conveying system, using ball bearings as chain wheels to ensure smoothness and durability during transport. The track guides the chain's direction, and the hangers are used to hang and transport materials. In electrostatic spray booths, objects to be painted are suspended by the overhead conveyor chain as they pass through the booth for coating. Over time, debris can accumulate inside the conveyor chain, potentially contaminating the objects. This necessitates regular cleaning of the overhead conveyor chain, currently mainly done manually or pneumatically, which is inefficient and difficult to perform. Utility Model Content
