Problems solved by technology

This differential nature of the conveyor belt and attached covering can cause wrinkling and distortion, which can reduce the visibility of information, cause abrasion and collect dirt
Furthermore, these prior patents fail to recognize and address the difficulty associated with the problem that the removal and replacement of the advertising overlay on the tape can be performed in a relatively simple manner for personnel with only minimal training
The newly added covering will improve the appearance of the belt, but must cause no or only minimal interference with the normal functioning of the belt

Abstract

A checkout counter belt cover for displaying information, including advertising information. The cover is formed of a stretchable material and includes at least one printable surface. The cover is releasably attachable to a checkout counter belt such that it substantially covers the entire belt but without affecting standard belt movement. A perimeter attachment component and a width attachment component are removably affixed to the belt. One end of the cover is releasably affixed to the width attachment component. As the belt is moved, the cover is releasably affixed to the perimeter attachment component. As one rotation of the belt is completed, the opposite end of the cover is releasably affixed to the width attachment component adjacent to the one end of the cover.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to coverings for endless / endless and mechanically laced together belt systems. More specifically, the present invention relates to applying information to such belts, such as conveyor belts. Still more particularly, the present invention relates to conveyor belts and coverings for conveyor belts including advertising. Background technique [0002] Conveyors are used in many industries to transport objects from one location to another with little or no physical exertion by a person to do so. A conveyor generally comprises a web or belt of some selectable length held on one or more rotating elements. The belt forms a loop around the rotating element and moves when the rotating element moves. The rotating element may be a controllable pulley, roller or wheel. The most common type of transfer device is used in retail stores as a device used by consumers to transfer multiple products from the beginning to the end of the che...
