ABSTRACT:
A revolving floor apparatus (10) for a trailer flat bed (12) or the like is disclosed. The revolving floor apparatus (10) includes endless conveyor chains (30) having a plurality of elongated slats (70) attached along a portion thereof. The transversely extending slats (70) are moved in a spaced relationship by the endless chains (30) longitudinally of the trailer flat bed (12). The trailer flat bed (12) may be used either in a "live floor" configuration wherein the slats (70) are positioned along at least a portion of the top surface of the trailer flat bed (12) or in a conventional configuration wherein the slats (70) are positioned under the trailer flat bed (12) such that the top surface of the trailer flat bed (12) is generally void of any of the slats (70). Furthermore, the chains (30) are recessed in longitudinally extending recesses.
