ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A cleaning apparatus for an overhead conveyor system is disclosed which provides continuous cleaning of the system for smooth, trouble-free operation. The apparatus preferably includes one or more exteriorly-mounted wire brush assemblies which are arranged on the guide-rail of the conveyor system for operative cleaning engagement with the movable conveyor. Threaded adjustment means are preferably provided so that the pressure exerted on the conveyor by the cleaning brushes can be selectively varied. For conveyors comprising an enclosed, box-section guide rail, the present apparatus is preferably configured to include a tension-carrying internal brush assembly which is integrated into the conveyor itself. In the preferred form, cleaning engagement is effected between the exteriorly-mounted brushes and the tension-carrying internal brush whereby the internal brush is periodically cleaned.
