MODULAR, WASTE COLLECTING AND DRAINING FLOOR APPARATUS Abstract of the Disclosure An improved construction is provided for slotted, waste draining floors such as commonly employed in live- stock enclosures. The apparatus employs spaced, parallel, elongate assemblies, which are preferably formed of metal extruded in generally "T" shaped cross-sectional configuration (or in generally "pi" shaped cross- sectional configuration for heavier loads) to present a slotted floor, in combination with slotted waste collection and drainage pipes, which are preferably formed by longitudinal cutting of ordinary plastic pipe, within the chambers between the assemblies. The assemblies and pipes may be made to any desired length, and the modular nature of the construction permits forming a floor of any desired width. An important advantage of the apparatus is that, since it provides for the collection and drainage of waste materials by virtue of its own simple combination of elements, it eliminates the need for an underlying waste collection pit and can be mounted either directly atop a solid sub-floor or in tiered fashion upon elevated support beams without pass through of waste materials to an underlying compartment. A particularly advantageous aspect of the improved floor construction is the manner in which the floor-presenting assemblies and the waste handling pipe or trough elements are mechanically inter- coupled to enhance structural strength and stability, as well as the simple and effective way in which that is accomplished.
