<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a conveying apparatus which secures stable movement of a body in a curving part without requiring large-scale repair of a facility without increasing the number of components even when adding the curving part to an existing guide rail. <P>SOLUTION: A steering wheel part 32 and a steering wheel part 33 turn with respect to a body 31 at a turning center axis 43 and a turning center axis 44, respectively. Thereby, a roller member 37 and a roller member 38 stably keep contact to a guide rail 11 even on a curved rail 15 of the guide rail 11. A pinion gear for transmitting drive force of a conveying unit 13 is arranged coaxially with the turning center axis 43 of the steering wheel part 32. Thereby, the distance between the turning center axis 43 and a rack rail, that is, a meshing position between the pinion gear and the rack rail becomes constant even when the conveying unit 13 passes through the curved rail 15 of the guide rail 11. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
