Abstract
An alignment maintenance device has one or two guide members mounted on the roller of a conveyor system to counteract any tendency of a conveyor belt to move laterally. The guide member has a split sleeve including a cylindrical hub and radial flanges. The flanges are bolted together to clamp the sleeve tightly on the roller adjacent the conveyor belt. A dome-shaped disc is fixed to the inside edge of the sleeve, placing it between the sleeve and conveyor belt. The disc prevents the belt from moving laterally on the roller.
