Abstract
The invention relates to a transport unit (1, 1a-d, 1a′-d′) of an overhead conveyor system (2, 2′, 2″), comprising an elastically deformable buffer element (11, 11′, 11″, 11a-d, 11a′-d′), which is designed to store deformation energy when under load and to release same when no longer under load.

A transport unit (1, 1a-d, 1a′-d′) of an overhead conveyor device (2, 2′, 2″), comprising:
- an elastically deformable buffer element (11, 11′, 11″, 11a-d, 11a′-d′) arranged with respect to the transport unit (1, 1a-d, 1a′-d′), and configured to store deformation energy when loaded and to release the deformation energy when the load is removed.
