Abstract
The present invention relates to a roller for slidably mounting a panel such as a shower door to a rail or to a similar structure. The roller comprises a first cylindrical portion including a rolling surface for engaging the rail and a second cylindrical portion fixedly securable to the shower door panel. The second portion is concentrically mounted to the first portion and is rotatable relative thereto. A resilient member such as a tension spring connects the first portion to the second portion and stores a potential energy when a user moves the shower door in one direction and automatically urges the shower door to move in the opposite direction when released by the user. The invention also relates to a roller assembly comprising a roller and a rail.
