Title: Improvements in apparatus for discharging material from storage bunkers, silos or thelike
IPC: B65G67/00
Filed: 1934-12-24
Abstract: 449,475. Emptying storage chambers from below. GIBBONS BROS., Ltd., Dibdale Works, Dudley, Worcestershire, and COOK, N. G., 61, Springfield Grove, Sedgley, Staffordshire. Dec. 24, 1934, No. 36904. [Classes 78 (i) and 78 (iv)] The valve in the base of a storage bunker is moved angularly to open and close it by the passage of a truck or other transportable container which is to be filled. Fig. 2 shows the valve in inverted plan, rotatable round the central pin 13 while resting on the peripheral rollers 17, so that the segmental portions 10 are either in or out of register with segmental holes 11 in an upper plate forming the bottom of the bunker. Downwardly-projecting striking-plates 14 with adjustable contact-pieces 21 preferably having curved ends, are adapted to be engaged by the apparatus carried by the vehicle. The vehicle carries two crossshafts 23, Fig. 3, each comprising two separate shafts in alignment extending half-way across the width, and adapted to be turned independently. A lever-and-hand-chain appliance 29, 30 is fitted to each end of one pair of shafts in order to raise or lower the pair of linked catches 22, 26 at one side of the vehicle or the other. As the vehicle runs from left to right under the bunker, the catches 22 first engage one of the contact-pieces 21 and open the valve, and afterwards the catches 26 engage a succeeding member 21 and rotate the valve further in the same direction to re-close it. For running a vehicle in the reverse direction under the bunker the catches 22, 26 shown in Fig. 3, would be lowered and the pair on the opposite side raised. Should a vehicle run thereunder with the wrong set of catches raised, the latter are tripped by the members 11 without moving the valve. Stops 31, 32, which retain the catches in the acting and inactive positions respectively, permit this tripping movement to take place. Holes 35 provide for the adjustment of the catches 22, 26 in a fore-and-aft direction on the truck. The edges of the opening 11, or the plates 10, or both, may be shaped so that the orifice is initially opened and finally closed with a scissors-like action. The members 22, 26 may be fitted with rollers at their contacting points with the members 21. More than two segmental openings 11 may be fitted ; the angular movement of the valve being correspondingly reduced. In some cases the truck may open the valve on the forward run and close it on the return run ; a single member 22 in this case being provided, having a forked arm which straddles the contact member on the valve. Either the valve or the plate forming the base of the bunker may be formed with scraper edges.
