ROLLER CONVEYOR

摘要

A roller conveyor of the type in which the rolls are driven from a line shaft. The roll shafts and line shaft have cooperating bevel gears which are placed within light weight housings. All bearings in which the shafts are journaled are separate from the gear housings to avoid need for precision in constructing the housings. Each shaft is journaled in only a single "held" bearing, and the other bearings are "free" to enable the shafts to be shifted axially for adjustment or removal. The line shaft is formed in sections joined end-to-end.
