Systems and methods for displaying content in a conveyor system are provided. A content displaying conveyor plate includes a base plate and an upper plate that is configured to be releasably coupled to the base plate. The upper plate can be configured to display content, for example content that is integral to the base plate, content that is disposed between the upper plate and the base plate, or any combination thereof. The upper plate can be coupled to the base plate via one or more connection members defined on the upper plate and/or the base plate. Any, number, such as all of the base plates of an existing conveyor system can be replaced with respective content displaying conveyor plates. The base plate of the content displaying conveyor plate can define one or more recesses, the recesses configured to receive an attachment member and/or other components of a carousel therein. |

1. A content displaying conveyor plate for use with a carousel conveyor system for luggage where the carousel conveyor system includes a plurality of spaced-apart attachment members connected to a drive system for the carousel conveyor system, consisting essentially of:
(a) a base plate having a lower surface configured to directly connect the base plate to an attachment member of the carousel conveyor system by a connecting means located on the lower surface such that the base plate can be conveyed continuously around a perimeter of the carousel conveyor system by the attachment member, the base plate having an upper surface and a leading edge, a trailing edge, and opposing first and second side edges between the leading and trailing edges where the base plate leading, trailing, first, and second side edges define a perimeter for the upper surface of the base plate, and a plurality of apertures, wherein the base plate upper surface is a flat, planar surface; and (b) an upper plate having a flat, lower surface, an upper surface, and a leading edge, a trailing edge, and opposing first and second side edges between the leading and trailing edges where the upper plate leading, trailing, first and second side edges define an upper plate perimeter for the lower surface of the upper plate that is coextensive with the base plate upper surface perimeter, and a plurality of apertures that align with the base plate apertures, wherein the upper plate is located above the base plate such that the upper plate lower surface faces the base plate upper surface; and (c) visual content located on or above the upper surface of the base plate, the visual content being viewable from the upper surface of the upper plate; wherein the upper plate is releasably coupled to the base plate by anchors extending through the upper plate and base plate apertures such that the content is displayed by the upper plate. |
