Conveying device for small parts

In a conveying device for small parts for charging at least one destination, having a guide rail (10) and having a transport apparatus (11) moved along the guide rail (10), for the purpose of independence of the space available together with easy installation of the conveying section and great flexibility with regard to later alteration of the route, the guide rail (10) is built up from at least two parallel strips (12) of sheet metal, which are clamped together by means of spacer elements (13) arranged at a distance from one another in the longitudinal direction of the strip. The transport apparatus (12) has an electromotive drive unit (20) having a drive wheel (33) and a current collector (35) and a receiving unit (21) for receiving the small parts, which receiving unit (21) is pivotably connected to the drive unit (20). The power supply takes place via a current rail (17) which is held in an isolated manner on the guide rail (10) and which is contacted by the current collector (35) (Fig. 2).
