Conveyor roller and conveyor system with moisture protection

Conveyor system (12), comprising

• a conveyor roller (1) having a shaft, a roller body (3) mounted so as to be rotatable about the shaft (2), a motor for driving the roller body (3) disposed in the roller body (3), a protective cap (4) and a connecting cable (7) running out of the roller body (3) and electrically connected to the motor, and the protective can (4) comprises a disk-shaped first section (5) for covering the interior of the roller body (3), which is disposed fixedly relative to the shaft and oriented normally thereto, and a channel-like or roof-like second section (6) which is disposed at an angle with respect to the shaft (2) and extends across a part length of the roller body (3) spaced radially at a distance apart therefrom
• two frame profiles (13) extending at a distance apart between which the conveyor roller (1) is disposed,
• a power supply and/or data line (14) running along a frame profile (13) and
• a connector box (15) disposed on the frame profile (13) which is electrically connected to the power supply and/or data line (14) and to the connecting cable (7) and which is disposed underneath the roof-like second portion (6) of the protective cap (4),
• the connecting cable (7) is provided with a plug (8) or socket (17) at one end and the connecting cable (7) is run in a curve or a loop to a socket (17) or a plug (8) on the connector box (15), and the plug/socket connection forms an electrical interface (8, 17), and the lowest point of the curve/loop lies underneath said interface (8, 17) wherein the connector box (15) comprises a roof-like projection (16) and the electrical interface (8, 17) between the connecting cable (7) and connector box (5) is disposed underneath the roof-like projection.
