CONVEYOR SUPPORT MECHANISM

To make it possible to absorb rolling due to earthquake and prevent interference between conveyor supports at the time of earthquake occurrence in a conveyor support mechanism.SOLUTION: A conveyor support mechanism comprises: a first conveyor support girdle which supports plural conveyance rollers which support an approach route of an endless belt-like conveyance belt; a second conveyor support girdle which supports the plural conveyance rollers which support the approach route of the conveyance belt on a downstream side in a conveyance direction of the conveyance belt, and faces the first conveyor support girdle; a leg which supports the first conveyor support girdle and the second conveyor support girdle; and a bearing part comprising a slide mechanism which is inserted between the first conveyor support girdle or the second conveyor support girdle and the leg. A gap between the conveyance roller, which is positioned on the most downstream side of the first conveyor support girdle, and the conveyance roller, which is positioned on the most upstream side of the second conveyor support girdle, is wider than a gap between the conveyance rollers which are adjacent to each other in the conveyance direction of the first conveyor support girdle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】コンベヤ支持機構において、地震の横揺れを吸収可能とすると共に地震発生時にコンベヤ支持同士が干渉することを抑止可能とする。【解決手段】無端ベルト状の搬送ベルトの往路を支持する複数の搬送ローラを支える第１コンベヤ支持桁と、上記搬送ベルトの搬送方向の下流側で上記搬送ベルトの往路を支持する複数の搬送ローラを支え、上記第１コンベヤ支持桁に対面する第２コンベヤ支持桁と、上記第１コンベヤ支持桁、上記第２コンベヤ支持桁を支持する脚部と、上記第１コンベヤ支持桁もしくは上記第２コンベヤ支持桁と上記脚部との間に介挿されたスライド機構を備えた支承部とを備え、上記第１コンベヤ支持桁の最も下流側に位置する上記搬送ローラと、上記第２コンベヤ支持桁の最も上流側に位置する上記搬送ローラとの間隔が、上記第１コンベヤ支持桁の搬送方向に隣接する上記搬送ローラの間隔よりも広い。【選択図】図１
