To manufacture a conveying apparatus having a some kind of thrust element, capable of assembling in a simple mode without wholly requiring specific adaptive work, by enabling the transmission of high force.

This conveying apparatus (1) has the thrust element (2). The respective thrust elements (2) have respectively at least one roller element (3) and at least one spacer body (4). At least the one pacer body (4) is designed so as to maintain the thrust element (2) succeeding after mutual ones in the conveying apparatus mutually at a certain distance. In that case, the thrust element (2) continuing in the conveying direction extends to the second end from the first end, and the thrust element (2) in an area of the first end is movably supported to a conveying track by at least one roller element (3). The thrust element (2) in an area of the second end is supported on an adjacent thrust element (2), and a continuous thrust element (2) can apply a load to the mutual ones only under compression, and cannot apply the load under tension.
