Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An article conveying device 4 includes a movable conveyer 12 for conveying a culture vessel 3 (article) and longitudinal mover 13b for moving the movable conveyer 21, and a conveyer driving motor 14 is provided separately from the movable conveyer 12, and a driving magnet MA rotated by a driving shaft 32 driven by the conveyer driving motor 14 and a driven magnet MB provided on the movable conveyer 12 and connected to the driving magnet MA by a magnetic force in a non-contact manner are provided. A plurality of the driven magnets MB is provided along a moving direction of the movable conveyer 12 by the longitudinal mover 13b, and an interval between the plurality of the driven magnets MB is matched with a moving distance of the movable conveyer 12 by the longitudinal mover 13b.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An article conveying device including a conveyer for conveying an article and moving means for moving the conveyer, characterized in that: driving means for driving the conveyer is provided separately from the conveyer, and a driving shaft rotated by the driving means, a driving magnet rotated by a driving force of the driving shaft, a driven magnet provided on the conveyer and to which rotation is transmitted from the driving magnet by a magnetic force in a non-contact manner, and an input shaft rotated together with the driven magnet and driving the conveyer are provided; and a plurality of the driven magnet are provided along a moving direction of the conveyer by the moving means, and an interval between the plurality of driven magnets is matched with a moving distance of the conveyer by the moving means. 2. An article conveying device including a conveyer for conveying an article and moving means for moving the conveyer, characterized in that: driving means for driving the conveyer is provided separately from the conveyer, and a driving shaft rotated by the driving means, a driving magnet rotated by a driving force of the driving shaft, a driven magnet provided on the conveyer and to which rotation is transmitted from the driving magnet by a magnetic force in a non-contact manner, and an input shaft rotated together with the driven magnet and driving the conveyer are provided; and the driving shaft is provided along a moving direction of the conveyer by the moving means, a plurality of the driving magnet are provided along the driving shaft, and an interval between the plurality of driving magnets is matched with a moving distance of the conveyer by the moving means. 3. The article conveying device according to claim 1 , wherein the conveyer is disposed inside a work space, the driving means is disposed outside the work space, the driving shaft is provided so as to penetrate an isolating member forming the work space, and the driving magnet and the driven magnet are provided inside the work space.
