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.

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.

The conveyor belt cleaning system is an add-on apparatus for a grocery store checkout conveyor. The device automatically dispenses a disinfectant liquid on the underside of the belt in a continuous manner. The disinfectant is pumped from an open rectangular reservoir that is the same width as the belt. An electric pump dispenses the disinfectant from at least one spray nozzle at the leading edge of the reservoir. A squeegee is secured at the trailing edge of reservoir removes excess disinfectant which in turn falls back into the reservoir for reuse.

A pharmaceutical transport system may include a pneumatic tube network and a pharmaceutical transport cleaner. The pharmaceutical transport cleaner may include a cylindrical body, and a rotatable cleaning band extending around the cylindrical body to contact and clean adjacent portions of the pneumatic tube network as the cylindrical body moves through the pneumatic tube network.
