Abstract

A trolley assembly (10) for a conveyor includes a wheel assembly (12) and a trolley arm (14). The wheel assembly (12) includes a wheel (18) that is rotatably mounted to an axle (20), with the axle extending along an axis of rotation of the wheel and comprising a mounting portion that is non-rotatably mounted to or at least partially received in the trolley arm (14). The mounting portion of the axle (20) may be inserted into a passageway (15) and at least partially expanded to limit retraction of the axle from the passageway, or a fastener (16) or other retaining means may secure the axle at least partially within a passageway of the trolley arm. The mounting portion of the axle may comprise a non-cylindrical mounting portion that is received in a non-cylindrical-shaped passageway of the trolley arm.
