Abstract

A roller for a roller conveyor has a circular outer article engaging surface and a transversely extending through bore. A rotatable drive shaft extends through the bore for rotating the roller. The bore in the roller is offset from the transverse center of the roller to cause an eccentric rotational movement of the outer surface of the roller.
