The present invention relates to a device for conveying products on a production line, comprising a section for moving said products longitudinally and another section for diverting said products in relation to said longitudinal movement. One of the sections comprises a plurality of Mecanum wheels compactly grouped in sets, and the device comprises a single means for driving the assembly of Mecanum wheels. The invention also relates to a corresponding method for conveying products.

A sealing system which is designed to leverage the centrifugal acceleration of solids and liquids due to the natural rotation of the roller, expelling them outside, preventing most of the contamination from trying to penetrate the roller seals. Excess of contaminants that is not centrifugally expelled is blocked by the following internal sealing system.

A cylindrical body includes a cylindrical member, made by forming a metal plate into a cylindrical shape such that the two end faces of the metal plate face each other, and a nonmetallic adhesive member bonding the two end faces together. The two end faces each include an adhesive part, and the adhesive member is disposed between the adhesive parts of the end faces. The adhesive part of one end face is not parallel to the adhesive part of the other end face. Each end face also includes a contact part which is in contact with the contact part of the other end face.

A conveyance device and a planar conveyance apparatus having a simple structure and capable of carrying out an article in any direction are developed.

A conveyance device 1 that includes an energizing mechanism unit 2 configured to energize and move an article and a rotation mechanism unit 3 configured to rotate the energizing mechanism unit itself, and is capable of changing a moving direction of the article by rotating the energizing mechanism unit 2 with the rotation mechanism unit 3. The energizing mechanism unit 2 includes an energizing mechanism side motor 10, and the energizing mechanism side motor 10 includes a coil 32 on a center side and an outer body 30 surrounding the coil 32, and is an outer rotor type motor in which the outer body 30 rotates. The energizing mechanism side motor 10 is disposed such that a central shaft of the outer body 30 is in a substantially horizontal posture, and the outer body 30 energizes the article by coming into contact with the article directly or through a freely-rotating rotor 7 interposed therebetween.

The present invention relates to a dosing apparatus for dosing a good, in particular a good to be dried such as a fermentation substrate or dung, comprising a conveyor for conveying a good to be dried in a conveying direction, wherein the good to be dried may be fed onto the conveyor by a feeding system and wherein the conveyor may deliver the good to be dried to a downstream unit such as a drying apparatus, and a control unit designed to control a conveying speed of the conveyor, wherein the conveyor is pivotally arranged about a vertical swivel axis, characterized in that the control unit is arranged and designed to control an oscillating movement, preferably a speed, in particular an angular speed, and/or a frequency of the oscillating movement, of the conveyor about the swivel axis.

Provided is a motor-incorporating roller capable of preventing a grease supply portion from separating. The motor-incorporating roller has a motor and a reducer in a cylindrical roller body and the reducer is provided with a gear train including a plurality of gears. The motor-incorporating roller has a grease supply portion that supplies grease to the plurality of gears in the reducer and is capable of containing grease therein. Furthermore, the motor-incorporating roller has a power output member that outputs power and a shaft portion that pivotally supports the gears. The grease supply portion is integrated with the power output member through the shaft portion to restrict movement of the shaft portion in an axial direction.
