A conveyor belt cleaning system is configured with waterproofing techniques throughout its entire body to prevent liquid from entering liquid-sensitive portions of the cleaning system, thereby reducing machine downtime or destruction. The conveyor belt cleaning system has a touchscreen control panel (i.e., a computing device) that controls the modular cleaning system's operations and one or more actuators that facilitate directional movement of the modular cleaning head. The control panel is comprised of the display, such as a touchscreen display, and the various computer-related components that effectuate the computer's operations, such as one or more processors (CPUs, GPUs, etc.), long and short-term hardware-based memory devices such as Flash memory, ROM (Read-Only Memory), RAM (Random Access Memory), etc., network interface cards (NICs) for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and other wired and wireless forms of communications, among other operational components.

Waterproofing of a modular head cleaning system

An air-powered conveyor belt cleaner is configured with a spinner manifold with cleaning heads having nozzles that output air against a conveyor belt and an opposing catch tray assembly that catches dislodged sesame seeds and small debris or particles from the cleaned conveyor belt. A hanging bracket attaches to opposing sides of the conveyor belt's frame and uses rollers to direct the conveyor belt in a temporarily vertical direction while the air-powered conveyor belt cleaner operates. Once the conveyor belt is vertically-oriented, plant air is directed to inlets at the spinner manifold, which is then output through nozzles perpendicularly arranged relative to the conveyor belt. The cleaning heads are adapted to rotate while operating to increase the agitation against the conveyor belt. The tips of the nozzles/tubes are bent at an obtuse angle to create a thrust caused by the output air.

A dynamic, reconfigurable, and modular cleaning device utilizes software, sensors, and modular components to provide a one-size-fits-all approach to cleaning conveyor belts. The cleaning device secures to a body or frame associated with a conveyor belt, in which an associated cleaning head cleans the conveyor belt's surface. The cleaning head has an arm that extends from its body and inserts into a corresponding opening on a connecting frame associated with the cleaning device. The cleaning head is then secured in place via a cylindrical pin that extends through aligned holes on the arm and the connecting plate. Insertion of the pin connects the components together, and removal of the pin enables a user to disconnect the cleaning head and swap a new one in its place, such as to provide a different cleaning action.

Conveyor belt cleaning device controllable by a control panel

A cleaning device and system operable to a continuous conveyor is shown. The cleaning assembly is operable to clean debris from the continuous conveyer. The cleaning device comprises a cleaning assembly mounted below a lower conveyor belt. The cleaning assembly is pivotable to form an angle with respect to a direction of the lower conveyor run. The cleaning assembly has a removable cartridge having a shaft with a pair of ends and having a cylindrical cleaner mounted on said shaft.

Conveyor belt cleaning device adapted with modular cleaning heads

A cleaning apparatus for an endless conveyor belt is provided. The cleaning apparatus is operable for a rotary cleaning head to perform a cleaning action on a first section of the endless conveyor belt. In an embodiment of the present invention, the rotary cleaning head comprises a rotating disc assembly. The rotary cleaning assembly is operable for a mobile mount to position the rotary cleaning head into a first cleaning contact position with the endless conveyor belt. To affix the rotary cleaning head assembly to a mount, a connecting portion having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the proximal end includes a first coupling is provided. Said coupling is capable of making a connection to and disconnecting from the mobile mount, and said distal end capable of making a connection and disconnecting from the rotary cleaning head and adapted for use with the rotary cleaning head.
