A plurality of supports are arranged in a circumferential direction of the rotating part and each mounted on the rotating part. The rollers include a plurality of first rollers and a plurality of second rollers. Each support has a first arm supporting one end side of a corresponding first roller of the plurality of first rollers, and a second arm supporting the other end side of the corresponding first roller. A corresponding second roller of the plurality of second rollers is supported by the first arm of one of two supports that are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction and the second arm of the other one of the two supports.
