Abstract: A conveyor system having any number of conveyor system modules, each system module including a support structure, a band and a band drive mechanism for driving the band around a path of each respective system module. In one aspect of the invention a mounting bracket forms a part of the conveyor system and has mounting details for mounting the bracket onto a conveyor system support element. In a second aspect of the invention a conveyor drive mechanism bracket mounts a drive mechanism in the conveyor system. Locking details are also designed to tighten a band of the conveyor system. In a third aspect of the invention a coupling bracket for a first conveyor system module has mechanical coupling details.

Abstract: A linear band guide device for supporting and defining a path for a band includes an elongate band support element, a first band end support at a first end of said elongate band support element, a second band end support at a second end of said elongate band support element. The elongate band support element has a substantially flat top surface capable of functioning as a slide bed for the band.
