Abstract: The present invention is characterized to include a cylindrical cam that is provided to correspond to a moving path and possesses an engaging groove, the moving path moving in an uncoupled state with each of a plurality of carriers to which an object to be conveyed is respectively installed and the plurality of carriers being in states where a set of a plurality of first carriers and a set of a plurality of second carriers are alternately lined up, and a drive source that drives the cylindrical cam, wherein a first cylindrical cam and a second cylindrical cam, as the cylindrical cam, are respectively provided to correspond to a predetermined position in the moving path, the first cylindrical cam possessing an engaging groove with which only the first carriers are engageable and the second cylindrical cam possessing an engaging groove with which only the second carriers are engageable, a first drive source that drives the first cylindrical cam and a second drive source that drives the second cylindrical cam ar

Abstract: The present invention is characterized to include a carrier to which an object to be carried is installed, a moving path where a plurality of the carriers respectively move in uncoupled states, a conveying part that comes into contact with the carrier to directly move the carrier and that makes a contacted carrier that had come into contact and been moved push a plurality of carriers that are positioned in front of the contacted carrier to indirectly move the plurality of carriers, and a cylindrical cam that possesses an engaging groove and that is provided to correspond to only a part of the moving path, wherein the cylindrical cam rotates to move the plurality of the carriers that are pushed by the contacted carrier to reach the cylindrical cam and that are engaged with the engaging groove, and changes an interval between the plurality of carriers as well.

Abstract: An overload limiting device includes: a rolling element; a rotatable first rotation member having a housing portion that houses the rolling element; a rotatable second rotation member having an engagement recess portion that engages detachably with the rolling element housed in the housing portion, the second rotation member being arranged opposing the first rotation member; a biasing member that biases the rolling element toward the engagement recess portion; and an adjustment nut that adjusts a biasing force of the biasing member by moving in a rotation axis direction of the first rotation member, the adjustment nut being provided to the first rotation member, the first rotation member including a scale showing a position of the adjustment nut in the rotation axis direction.

Abstract: A cam device includes a first member including a plurality of cam followers arranged in a row direction and a second member including a rotatable cam with an engaging groove, on an outer circumferential surface thereof, to be engaged with the cam followers, the second member moving relatively with respect to the first member in the row direction by rotating the cam and making the plurality of the cam followers engage successively in the engaging groove, wherein the second member includes a gear that rotates the cam by engaging with the cam, and second teeth that mesh with first teeth of the gear are provided on the outer circumferential surface of the cam.
