A collapsible hand rail system integrated with a conveyor for conveying materials from ground level to a roof top or to a level higher than ground level including a first and a second hand rail apparatus, one apparatus mountable to a left side of the conveyor and the other apparatus mountable to the right side of the conveyor, a plurality of post mounting brackets mounted in equal numbers to each side of the conveyor, a plurality of vertical support posts rotably connected to the hand rails and rotably anchored at the brackets, a pair of rear post mounting brackets, one at each side of the conveyor, and a pair of rear vertical support posts, one at each side of the conveyor wherein the first and second hand rail apparatus are collapsible from an erected position and erectable from a collapsed position.

Various embodiments are directed to cart grounding devices for conveyor assemblies and methods of using the same. In various embodiments, a cart grounding device for a conveyor assembly may comprise a frame engagement element configured for attachment to at least a portion of a conveyor assembly; an arm assembly comprising an arm element hingedly connected relative to the frame engagement element; and a cart interface component configured to physically engage a connected plurality of conveyor carts of the conveyor assembly to provide a ground path from the conveyor carts to a ground, the cart interface component comprising one or more grounding wheels configured to physically contact the conveyor carts and rotate about a respective central wheel axle based on the physical contact with the conveyor carts, wherein the arm assembly defines a biased configuration that biases the cart interface component in a direction towards the conveyor carts.

Disclosed is an industrial belt that can be used in, for example, conveying or forming engineered wood composites or other industrial products. The industrial belt has a seamable base belt with a coating that includes a polymer, an anti-contaminant, and a conductive anti-static component.

To curb occurrence of static electricity between a glass substrate and a roller that conveys the glass substrate while supporting the glass substrate. A protrusion portion (112) is provided at a center portion of an outer circumferential surface of a roller (11) with respect to a direction in which a rotation axis (CA) of the roller (11) extends and convex portions (114) each protruding in a receding direction with respect to the rotation axis (CA) and concave portions (115) each recessed in an approaching direction with respect to the rotation axis (CA) are alternately provided along a circumferential direction (C) of the roller (11) on an outer circumference of the protrusion portion (112).
