Abstract
The invention relates to a transport device () for conveying a product, comprising a stationary running rail () which extends along a longitudinal axis (); a cart () with a height axis () which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (), said cart being guided on the running rail (); guiding rollers () which are arranged on the cart (), can be rotated about rotational axes () perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (), and roll on the running rail (), wherein the rotational axis () of each guiding roller () intersects the same straight line (), which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (); and a compensating device for compensating for a yaw moment (M) of the cart () about the height axis (), comprising multiple magnetic coils () arranged along the running rail (), at least two ferromagnetic or permanent magnetic counter elements () which are arranged on the cart () and which are arranged on both sides of the running rail (), and a control device () for controlling the magnetic coils () such that the counter elements () can be simultaneously pushed away from the running rail () in the direction of a transverse axis (), said transverse axis () being defined as perpendicular to the longitudinal axis () and perpendicular to the height axis ().
