Abstract
The invention relates to a guide for supporting a displaceable object, comprising: a plastic guide profile (1, 7, 16, 30) and a support structure (6, 12, 18, 32) supporting the guide profile, characterized in that the guide profile is engaged at least at two spaced-apart positions by the support structure, at least one engaging position of which consists of a free support (4, 5, 10, 11, 13, 14, 33, 34) of the guide profile on the support structure such that the freely supporting side of the guide profile is displaceable relative to the support structure. The invention also relates to a device (21) for conditioning products displaceable along a guide track (22).

Guide for supporting a displaceable object, comprising:
- a plastic guide profile having a guide surface over which displaceable objects can slide directly or via a product carrier, and
- a support structure supporting the guide profile,
- characterized in that the guide profile is engaged at least at two spaced-apart positions by the support structure, at least one engaging position of which consists of a free support of the guide profile on the support structure such that the freely supporting side of the guide profile is displaceable relative to the support structure;
- and
- wherein the free support of the guide profile on the support structure is formed by a recess in the guide profile in which an engaging part of the support structure engages close-fittingly and displaceably.
Guide for supporting a displaceable object, comprising:
- a plastic guide profile having a guide surface over which displaceable objects can slide directly or via a product carrier, and
- a support structure supporting the guide profile, characterized in that the guide profile is engaged at least at two spaced-apart positions by the support structure, at least one engaging position of which consists of a free support of the guide profile on the support structure such that the freely supporting side of the guide profile is displaceable relative to the support structure;
- wherein a plurality of guide profiles are placed connecting with a gap to each other;
- and
- wherein the gap between the profiles is between 5 and 35 mm at atmospheric temperature.
