Abstract
A motorized conveyor roller is provided which includes a mechanism for rotatably mounting a roller tube in a conveyor frame, the roller tube having a length, an inner diameter and a hollow interior. The roller tube has disposed within the hollow interior, a motor and a gear reducer also mounted inside the roller tube operatively connected to the motor. The gear reducer includes an output and a drive member being driven by the gear reducer output to drive said roller. A lubricant is contained within the hollow interior for lubricating and cooling the motor, the gear reducer, the gear reducer output, and the inner diameter of the roller tube. The roller tube has a device for ensuring that the lubricant is uniformily distributed about the inner diameter and length of the roller tube proximate portions of the inner diameter which do not contain the motor, the gear reducer, or the gear reducer output. The temperature of the lubricant and the roller tube across the length of the roller tube is significantly reduced, and substantially uniform as a result of the conveyor roller design.
