ABSTRACT:
A power driven, reciprocating slat conveyor (12) is provided on a dock (D). A passive, reciprocating slat conveyor (10) is provided within a trailer (T). The power driven conveyor (12) is coupled to the passive conveyor (10) so that the drive mechanism of the power driven conveyor (12) can be used to operate both conveyors (10, 12) in conjunction. All of the conveyor slats (14) of the dock conveyor (12) can be directly connected to corresponding conveyor slats (16) of the trailer conveyor (10). Or, one conveyor slat (14) from each set of conveyor slats in the power driven conveyor (12) can be connected to a corresponding conveyor slat in the passive conveyor (10) and these conveyor slats in the passive conveyor (10) can each be connected to a transverse drive beam which is connected to the remaining conveyor slats of the same set of conveyor slats. Or, the drive units of the powered conveyor (12) can be coupled to transverse drive beams which are connected to the sets of slats in the passive conveyor (10).
