The invention relates to an apparatus (14) for adapting a guide width (B) of a conveying device (12) for conveying containers for a container treatment installation. The apparatus (14) includes a longitudinally movable and pliable adjusting element (24), a guide element (20) for guiding the containers along a conveying direction (F) and a transmission device (26). For the adaptation of the guide width (B), the transmission device (26) is configured to convert a longitudinal movement, preferably a pushing and/or pulling movement, of the adjusting element (24) into a movement of the guide element (20) transversely with respect to the conveying direction (F). The pliability of the adjusting element (24) can make use possible even in curved regions of the conveying device (12). The adjusting element (24) can also be designed in a simple and cost-effective manner, for example in the form of a cable.

The present disclosure discloses a transport device and a reflow oven comprising the same. The transport device includes a first rail device. The first rail device includes a first guide rail and a first conveying belt. The first conveying belt includes a chain and a plurality of support bars, with the plurality of support bars arranged in a length direction, and each of the support bars rotatably connected to the chain, where each of the support bars is rotatable to a first state and a second state, and a distance from the top of the support bar in the second state to the chain is less than that from the top of the support bar in the first state to the chain. The support bars in the first state can support an element to be processed, and the support bars in the second state do not support the element to be processed, thereby reducing the occupied space. With the arrangement of the rotatable support bars, the first conveying belt of the first rail device can always travel in the length direction, enabling a lifting function of the support bars, without the need to move the position of the first conveying belt.
