CONVEYOR BELT WITH OBLIQUE ROLLERS MOUNTED ON LATERAL RODS

摘要

A conveyor belt (10) with rollers (34) that rotate on axes (32) oblique to the direction of belt travel (20). Axles (32) are mounted on rods (26) extending perpendicular to direction of belt travel. The axles (32) have cylindrical outer bearing surfaces (38) that define a central axis that is oblique to the direction of belt travel (20) when mounted on the rods (26). Rollers (34) mounted on the axles (32) rotate on the outer bearing surfaces (38) in a direction oblique to the direction of belt travel (20).
