ABSTRACT:
A reciprocating floor conveyor has at least one group of at least three individually reciprocatable slat members. A drive engages each slat member and moves more than half of the slat members simultaneously in a conveying direction and moves the remainder of the slat members in the opposite direction at least at about twice the rate of speed. The drive includes a fluid pressure source, a flow divider connected to the fluid pressure source which provides a separate, equal rate of flow for each slat member, a separate extensible fluid driven cylinder for reciprocation of each slat member that is connected to a separate flow from the flow divider, and a direction valve for each fluid driven cylinder which controls fluid flow into and out of the cylinder.
