A conveyor apparatus includes a supporting plate and a conveyor module. The supporting plate is connected to the conveyor module. The supporting plate includes a first power and communication terminal that is configured to provide the conveyor module with power and a communication connection. The conveyor module is connected to the supporting plate. The conveyor module is detachable and includes a second power and communication terminal that is connected to the first power and communication terminal to receive the power and to perform the communication connection. The first and second power and communication terminals are detachable, with an ability to be connected to and disconnected from each other.

A modular sensing device has multiple assembling components, and at least one object-detection sensor. The assembling components extend along a direction. Each one of the assembling components has a housing being tubular and an electrical connecting device mounted inside the housing. The housings of the multiple assembling components are detachably connected in sequence. The at least one object-detection sensor is mounted to one of the assembling components. The electrical connecting devices of the assembling components are electrically connected in sequence and are electrically connected to the at least one object-detection sensor. The detachable housings of the assembling components make the modular sensing device applicable to conveyors of different widths and promote flexibility of installation.

A conveyor construction for a continuous belt conveyor. The conveyor includes a conveyor frame assembly constructed from a plurality of separate extruded and joined frame sections. The frame assembly can include a pair of side frame extrusions joined to a center frame extrusion by a pair of attachment rails. The conveyor construction further includes a series of spindle mounting assemblies that support a tensioning spindle on opposite ends of the conveyor frame. Each of the spindle mounting assemblies includes a gear rack and a pinion head that is rotatable to move the gear racks. The gear racks contact one of a pair of head plates that support the tensioning spindle relative to the frame.

A conveyor assembly is provided for use with a mobile vehicle. The conveyor assembly includes a conveyor module. The conveyor module includes a first roller assembly. The first roller assembly includes a first rotatable roller body and a second rotatable roller body. The first and second roller bodies are interconnected to each other in such a manner as to share a first rotational axis yet be at least substantially rotationally independent of each other, such that each of the first and second roller bodies can rotate without causing or interfering with rotation of the other of the first and second roller bodies.

An escalator includes a truss formed of a support structure that bridges a lower landing and an upper landing of the escalator. The truss includes two rising side sections extending upwards from a bottom plane of the truss, the side sections extending along a length of the truss and being joined together with cross braces. The escalator includes a subframe attached to an outer side of at least one side section of the truss, the subframe being arranged to receive an outer cladding of the escalator.

A dynamic noser assembly used with a conveyor having pegs is provided. The dynamic noser assembly has a noser with a noser inner side, a noser outer side, a first lateral side, a second lateral side, a rear side and a front side. The dynamic noser further has a first hole with a first hole slot accessible via the noser inner side and a first hole notch, and a second hole with a second hole slot accessible via the rear side and a second hole notch. The noser is alignable with the pegs to lock the noser in place when the pegs are received within notches. The dynamic noser assembly further as a shaft removably connected to the noser, the shaft supporting at least one bearing. The noser front side has a channel formed therein for removably receiving the bearing shaft.
