Title:

GRAVITY TYPE WHEEL CONVEYOR OR ROLLER CONVEYOR CAPABLE OF CONTROLLABLY BRAKING CARRIED OBJECT

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2006/103714

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

A gravity type wheel conveyor or roller conveyor capable of relieving or lowering the carrying speed of a rather lightweight carried object by braking wheels or braking rollers or capable of controllably braking it to stop to a target position. A plurality of freely rotating wheels (4) or rollers (10) are arranged parallel with each other in an article carrying direction and the carried object (1) is carried by the action of its gravity. The selected one or more of the wheels (4) or rollers (10) are configured as the braking wheels (6) or the braking rollers (12) formed by mounting a soft and highly resilient braking material (7) or (11) on their outer peripheral surfaces so as to be radially projected from the outer peripheral surface of the wheels or the rollers.
