ABSTRACT:
A unitary framework for a reciprocating floor conveyor is positioned within a space between a pair of longitudinally extending main beams (110), which may constitute portions of a preexisting support structure in a truck or trailer, for example. Telescopic tubular connector members (102) carried by a plurality of outwardly projecting support arms (18) are telescopically moved outwardly to place their outer ends against inner surface portions of the beams (110), and such outer ends of connector members (102) are welded to the beams (110). The telescopic engagement between these members (102) and the outwardly projecting arms (18) hold the framework in position. Then, the inner ends of these connector members (102) are welded to the arms (18), for completing the connection at these locations. The framework comprises a pair of longitudinally spaced apart, laterally extending king post trusses (10, 12), the apexes of which are directed downwardly. These trusses (10, 12) are interconnected by a pair of laterally spaced apart, longitudinally extending tie beams (14, 16). The tie beams (14, 16) are connected to the ends of, and form portions of, a pair of slide bearing assemblies (30, 32) which are carried by the two trusses (10, 12). These bearing assemblies (30, 32) include aligned guideways for receiving opposite end portions of longitudinal drive tubes (34, 36, 38).
