The Ram OEM 5th wheel puck system, shown in the linked photo and article, was launched in 2013 so what you have in your truck is likely to be an aftermarket installation of some kind. These newer Ram trucks with the factory prep can directly accept a specialized 5th wheel hitch such as the B&W # BWRVK3600 or the Curt # C16545-16021. Such hitches drop right into those factory pucks, allowing you to completely remove the hitch for a clear bed when necessary for cargo.
Without seeing the set-up in your truck I cannot be sure of what you have. You can certainly send us photos of the bed and the underside of the bed - which may show aftermarket components that will help us determine what has been done to the truck.

I own a conventional 5th wheel hitch that locks into the rail system on my present truck. I am thinking of purchasing a 2019 dodge with the puck system installed. Is there an inexpensive adaptor to use my hitch with the puck system
