Idler - Idler (English spelling)

Japanese: アイドラー - あいどらー(英語表記)idler
Idler - Idler (English spelling)

A roller made of steel pipes that supports a conveyor belt for transportation. Also called a carrier, some are made of cast iron. The belt is often hollowed out in the center, and the rollers are placed in the hollow to make it easier for items to rest on. When transporting bagged or boxed items, the rollers are not hollowed out, but are placed flat. When using steel belts, they are also flat.

[Hidetaro Nakayama]

Japanese:

運搬用のベルトコンベヤーを支えている鋼管でできたローラーのこと。キャリアーともいい、鋳鉄製のものもある。ベルトの中央をくぼませ、品物がのりやすいように、ローラーを中くぼみに配置することが多い。袋詰め、箱詰めのものなどを運搬するときには、ローラーを中くぼみにせず、平らに配置する。鋼製のベルトを使用するときも平形とする。
