4 hrs confidence:
thrust drive chain conveyor Explanation: Thrust chain conveyor is a straightforward, literal translation, but it just doesn't sound right. The "thrust" doesn't have hands and feet. If you add "drive" you know that we are not refrring to a "thrust chain," but rather to a "chain conveyor" driven by "thrust." |
