ABSTRACT:
An article carrying apparatus is capable of inhibiting a force that acts on the apparatus due to a vibration being applied to its carry section in order to carry an article. The article carrying apparatus includes: a carry section for linearly restricting a carrying direction of an article to be carried; a cam mechanism for applying a vibration to the carry section by transmitting, to the carry section, a reciprocating linear motion having at least a carrying direction component in the carrying direction, wherein the vibration causes the article to be carried in the carrying direction; an enclosure section for supporting the cam mechanism; and a balancer for inhibiting a force that acts on the enclosure section due to the cam mechanism applying the vibration to the carry section.
