Conveyor system unit and endless conveyor system

A conveyor system unit configured to form part of an endless conveyor system, each conveyor system unit comprising:

• a first slat and a second slat together forming a pair of slats, each slat having a supporting surface with a first and a second long side edge portion and two short side edge portions, the first and second long side edge portions being longer than the two short side edge portions, and the first and second long side edge portions and the two short side edge portions together defining a rectangular supporting surface,
• wherein the first and second slats are arranged side by side in view of each other with a first long side edge portion of the first slat facing a second long side edge portion of the second slat, and
• wherein the first and second slats are interconnected by an elastomeric matrix extending across the supporting surfaces of the first and second slats,
• wherein the elastomeric matrix further comprises a connecting portion extending between the first and second slats thereby forming a continuous carrying surface of the conveyor system unit,
• wherein the connecting portion forms a hinged connection between the first and second slats, and
• wherein the elastomeric matrix is fastened to the first and second slats, wherein each conveyor system unit further comprises supporting side walls arranged at each short side edge portion of each slat, which supporting side walls extend upwards above the supporting surfaces of each slat,
• wherein the supporting side walls arranged on a same short edge side of the conveyor system unit are interconnected by an elastomeric matrix wall fastened to and extending across the supporting side walls, and
• the elastomeric matrix wall further comprising a connecting wall portion extending between the supporting side walls arranged on the same short edge side of the conveyor system unit thereby forming a continuous side wall at each short edge side of the conveyor system unit,
• wherein the connecting wall portions form a hinged connection between the supporting side walls at each short edge side of the conveyor system unit.
