A moving floor for a vehicle, trailer or container body especially for fitting on top of the floor of same, which moving floor provides maximum load entry height at the rear door frame/loading aperture of the body and improved load space utilisation within the body behind the rear door frame whilst accommodating the drive motors therefor within the depth of the moving floor, to that end the moving floor has the cargo receiving surface inclined relative to the body floor/roof giving decreasing depth to the moving floor in a direction towards the rear door frame/loading aperture. The moving floor comprises a pair of transversely spaced endless chains (21) entrained around a drive means (25) at the end remote from the loading aperture and around a smaller return pulley (27) at the loading aperture end thereof. The chain carries therebetween transverse slats (23) defining the movable cargo receiving surface. |
