Abstract:
A transport device includes a conveyor, a plurality of movable guide rails each of which is provided at a corresponding one of a plurality of locations along a lateral width direction, a drive shaft disposed to extend along the lateral width direction, and an actuator configured to drivingly rotate the drive shaft. A plurality of cam members are fixed to the drive shaft in respective fixing attitudes. Each movable guide rail of a plurality of movable guide rails is configured to be moved to change a height thereof depending on a fixing attitude of corresponding one of the cam members as the actuator drivingly rotates the drive shaft.

Claim (Index 7):
The transport device as defined in  claim 6 , wherein a first cam member which is one of the plurality of cam members that engages corresponding one of the pair of first movable guide rails and a second cam member which is one of the plurality of cam members that engages corresponding one of the pair of second movable guide rails are fixed to the drive shaft in respective attitudes such that an angular position of an engaging member of the first cam member is different from an angular position of an engaging member of the second cam member, and\n wherein the third phase angle is the rotation phase angle of the drive shaft when the engaging member of the first cam member and the engaging member of the second cam member are at a same height, and wherein the first phase angle is attained by rotating the drive shaft an angle \u03b8\u00b0 in one direction from the third phase angle whereas the second phase angle is attained by rotating the drive shaft the angle \u03b8\u00b0 in a direction opposite from the one direction from the third phase angle.
