Vibration device for a conveying apparatus (21) to convey a metal charge in a longitudinal direction (X) comprising at least two vibration mechanisms (25, 26) each disposed on opposite sides of the conveying apparatus (21) so as to feed the metal charge. The vibration mechanisms (25, 26) comprise at least a first plurality of eccentric masses (31, 32, 33) having their mass barycenters (B) oriented in parallel directions to each other, and a second plurality of eccentric masses (34, 35) having their mass barycenters (B) disposed angularly offset with respect to the disposition of the barycenters of the first plurality of eccentric masses (31, 32, 33).

A drive system for a conveyor system has an motor and a transmission. One or more clutches can be provided between the motor and transmission. The drive system can be mounted by way of a torque support. In order to reduce vibrations of the drive system, a damper is arranged on the axial motor-side end. If the motor, the transmission and, optionally, other components of the drive system are mounted on a rocker, the damper can be arranged on the motor-side axial end of the rocker.
