ABSTRACT:
Side-by-side conveyor slats (62) have laterally outwardly extending opposite upper side portions (72,74), each including a depending, longitudinal support and seal bead (B) having a lower edge that contacts and slides along a longitudinal bearing/seal surface (78) on a longitudinal support beam (14) that is below it. The conveyor slats (62) have laterally spaced apart depending leg portions (24,26), each with a laterally outwardly directed flange (64,66). These flanges (64,66) are offset vertically below the upper side portion (72,74) on its side of the conveyor slat (62). A longitudinal support beam (14) is positioned between each adjoining pair of conveyor slats (62), below adjacent upper side portions (72,74) of the adjoining conveyor slats (62). A longitudinal bearing/seal member (80) is supported on, extends along and is connected to each support beam (14). The longitudinal bearing/seal members (80) have side portions that project laterally outwardly from opposite sides of the support beams (14), each into a position that is above an adjacent outwardly directed flange (64,66) on an adjacent depending leg (68,70) of an adjoining conveyor slat (62), for blocking upward movement of the conveyor slats (62) up off of the bearing/seal members (80).
