If it is formed of two semi-globular segments, one of the semi-globular segments is provided with a male flange, and the other of the semi-globular segments is provided with a female recess. The two semi-globular segments are joined at the male flange/female recess seam. Whether it is formed of one globular or two semi-globular segments, a resilient material is coated thereon, and, if necessary permanently joining the two semi-globular segments together. The roller is also provided with a pair of diametrically opposed, aligned apertures or identations disposed within a pair of diametrically opposed flattened chords of the globular rollers. The apertures or indentations are preferably provided with bearing surfaces, e.g. ball bearings or rollers bearings.
