Abstract
A transporting roller is provided. The transporting roller includes two parallel spaced apart side flanges and a central part positioned between the flanges. The flanges and the central part have corresponding pass-through openings. The central part also includes at least one annular circumferential part rotatable with respect to the flanges when the circumferential part contacts a conveying path.
Claims29
A transporting roller for transporting objects on a conveying path, said transporting roller comprising two parallel spaced-apart, end-side flanges having a first through-passage opening and a central part located between said flanges, said central part having a second through-passage opening corresponding to said first through-passage opening and including at least one peripheral, annular circumferential part rotatable with respect to said flanges, said flanges being connected to one another and to said circumferential part, whereby said circumferential part rotates with respect to said flanges when said circumferential part contacts the conveying path and wherein said flanges are disk shaped extending beyond said circumferential part and being positioned parallel to the conveying path.
A transporting roller for transporting objects along a conveying path, said transporting roller comprising;
- first and second flanges, each said flange having a first passage therethrough;
- a central portion that is rotatable relative to said first and second flanges about a central axis, said central portion having a second passage therethrough, said central portion being positioned between said first and said second flanges such that said second passage is aligned with said first passage, said central portion having at least one annular surface spaced at a first distance from said central axis;
- and
- each said flange extending radially outwardly a second distance from said central axis, said second distance being greater than said first distance.
