Conveyance system with variable speed rollers

1. An apparatus, comprising:

a roller, attached to a support member operatively coupled to a first gear, wherein the first gear drives a conveyance of the support member and the roller in a first direction; and

a shaft that operatively couples the roller to a second gear engaged by a rotation member, wherein the rotation member, by being propelled along the first direction, drives the second gear, wherein the second gear drives a rotation of the roller in an axial direction, wherein the roller is attached to the support member via the shaft.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the shaft passes through a bearing comprised within the support member to operatively couple the roller to the second gear, and wherein the bearing facilitates rotation of shaft in the axial direction.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the roller is characterized by a shape selected from a group consisting of a cylindrical shape and a polygon shape.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the support member is selected from a group consisting of a belt, a chain, a cord, a rope and a wire.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the roller is comprised within a plurality of rollers, wherein the plurality of rollers are positioned along the first direction, and wherein the plurality of rollers are attached to the support member.

6. An apparatus, comprising:

a roller attached to a support member that is operatively coupled to a first gear, wherein the first gear drives a conveyance of the support member and the roller in a first direction;

a shaft that operatively couples the roller to a second gear engaged by a rotation member, wherein the rotation member, by being propelled along the first direction, drives the second gear, wherein the second gear drives a rotation of the roller in an axial direction; and

a second support member attached to the roller, wherein the second support member is operatively coupled to a third gear, and wherein the third gear drives the second support member and the roller in the first direction.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a controller operatively coupled to the first gear and the second gear, wherein the controller is configured to control a conveyance of support member and the roller in the first direction at a first speed, wherein the controller is further configured to control the rotation of the roller in the axial direction at a second speed, and wherein the first speed is independent of the second speed.

8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the controller comprises a processor.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first controller operatively coupled to the first gear, wherein the first controller is configured to control the conveyance of the support member and the roller in the first direction at a first speed; and

a second controller operatively coupled to the second gear, wherein the second controller is configured to control the rotation of the roller in the axial direction at a second speed, and wherein the first speed is independent of the second speed.

10. A system, comprising:

a platform located between a first support member and a second support member, the platform comprising rollers and attached to the first support member and the second support member;

a driving mechanism operatively coupled to the first support member and the second support member, wherein the driving mechanism propels the platform, the first support member and the second support member in a first direction; and

a rotation mechanism comprising a rotation member operatively coupled to the rollers, wherein the rotation mechanism rotates the rollers in an axial direction by propelling the rotation member along the first direction, wherein the driving mechanism propels the platform, the first support member and the second support member in the first direction at a first speed, wherein the rotation mechanism rotates the rollers at a second speed, and wherein the first speed is independent of the second speed.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein a roller of the platform is attached to the first support member by a shaft that extends from the roller, wherein the rotation mechanism is operatively coupled to the roller via the shaft.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the driving mechanism comprises a gear that engages with the first support member to facilitate propelling the platform and the first support member in the first direction.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the shaft is attached to a second gear, wherein the second gear engages with the rotation member to facilitate rotating the platform in the axial direction.

14. A system, comprising:

a roller comprised within a conveyor system that facilitates a conveyance of the roller along a first direction; and

a rotation mechanism comprising a rotation member operatively coupled to the roller, wherein the rotation mechanism facilitates a rotation of the roller along an axial direction by propelling the rotation member along the first direction, wherein the roller is attached to a support member via the rotation mechanism.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the conveyor system comprises a support member that is attached to the roller and engages a driving mechanism, wherein the driving mechanism propels the support member along the first direction and thereby enables the conveyance.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the rotation mechanism comprises:

a gear attached to the roller via a shaft, wherein the gear is engaged by the rotation member.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the rotation member is selected from a group consisting of a belt, a chain, a cord, a rope and a wire.

18. The system of claim 17 , further comprising a processor operatively coupled to the conveyor system and the rotation mechanism, wherein the processor controls a rotation speed of the roller along the axial direction with respect to a conveyance speed of the roller along the first direction.
