A roller cutter includes a hub having crushing members mounted on an outer periphery thereof, and a shaft on which the hub is mounted for rotation. Opposite ends of the shaft include respective spigots. Seals are disposed adjacent respective ends of the shaft and are arranged radially between the shaft and the hub for preventing leakage of lubricant. Covers are disposed axially outwardly of respective seals for covering the respective seals. Each cover includes a generally radially inwardly dire...

A roller assembly for use, for example, in agricultural machines where the roller assembly has an exterior surface portion adapted to contact a conveyor element supporting the agricultural products and a bearing sub-assembly positioned about an axle in the center of the roller assembly. The bearing sub-assembly has at least one bearing, at least one sealing element having an elastomeric sealing portion positioned outboard of the bearing and at least one standoff also positioned outboard of the b...

The contact portion of the end face of a conical roller, which is a portion to be slidingly contacted with a collar portion, is ground such that the outer contour line of the section thereof has a continuously curved line which passes through at least not only the first point but also between the third position and fourth position.

Materials are conveyed by a roller conveyor which comprises a pair of conveyor frames and a plurality of rollers rotatably mounted between the pair of conveyor frames. The roller comprises a roller body and a driving force receiver connected to a motor. When the driving force receiver is driven, the roller body is driven and rotated by engagement of the driving force receiver and the roller body. When the roller stops, the roller body is disengaged from the drivng force receiver and becomes free...

A roller chain for moving a web of textile material in a tenter frame. The roller chain has inner members flexibly joined to outer members in an alternating manner with a sleeve and a bolt. A running roller having an inner ring; an outer ring and sealing rings forming a ball bearing assembly is mounted on the sleeve. The sealing rings substantially seal ball bearings enclosed in the running roller. The sealing ring has a spacing element consisting of individual metallic inserts distributed appro...

The disclosed roller switch has a roller, a flag arm, and a photoelectric detector. The roller is connected to the flag arm and vertical movement of the roller causes the flag arm to move. The movement of the flag arm causes the photoelectric detector to send a signal. The signal may be used to measure the length of a material passing under the roller. The inventive roller switch has a pair of flag arms, and the roller is mounted on a shaft extending between the pair of flag arms. By providing a...

Disclosed is a cleaning implement, preferably in the form of a roller mop, that includes a mop head, a shaft, and a wringer. The cleaning implement further includes a connecting link connected to the mop head and to the shaft or wringer. The mop head has a connecting side and a cleaning side thereby defining a mop axis, which axis is disposed at an oblique angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the shaft. The connecting link is positioned with respect to the mop head to permit the mop he...

A roller conveyor with rotating rollers for transporting goods with a belt for driving the rollers arranged under the rollers, whereby the belt is aligned substantially vertical, is characterized in that on the upper edge of the belt, in contact with the rollers, a continuous profile element is arranged, and that the profile element is designed wider than the belt and projects over the latter on both sides.

A rotatable roller has a roller body with channels for guiding a medium through the roller body for controlling the temperature of the roller body. At least one of the channels has a separating member separating the at least one channel into separate channel portions such that media having different properties are separately guided through the at least one channel. The separating member is helically shaped.

The present invention provides a roller bearing in which a plurality of rollers is interposed between an inner ring member and an outer ring member, and a flange having a guide surface for guiding an end surface of the roller in a sliding contact manner is provided at an end portion of at least one of the inner ring member and outer ring member in an axial direction. Three-dimensional surface roughness of the end surface of the roller is defined to a value which satisfies conditional expressions...
