ABSTRACT:
A bearing for a reciprocating floor conveyor. The reciprocating floor conveyor includes a plurality of sub-deck guide beams and a plurality of floor slats. The bearing includes a load carrying top having an upper surface to receive at least one floor slat thereon and an opposed lower surface mating with one of the guide beams. The upper surface of the top includes a plurality of clean-out grooves. A first leg and a second leg each extend from the top with the legs spaced from each other a distance slightly longer than the width of one of the guide beams. A hinge mechanism permits the legs to move between two positions, a use position with the distance between the legs slightly shorter than the width of one of the guide beams and an installation position where the legs are separated or wider than the guide beam while installing onto the guide beam.
