ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for handling bulk material located in a pile at a storage site including a stationary support column that is anchored at the lowermost end thereof. The support column supports a stacker device at the uppermost end thereof, the stacker device being mounted for rotating movement relative to said support column for stacking the material at the storage site in a substantially circular array. A material feed device is mounted over said stacker device and feeds the material thereto during the stacking operation. Mounted for rotary movement relative to said support column is a reclaimer device, the reclaimer device being operable to reclaim the material from the pile for transfer thereof to a discharge area. The reclaimer device is rotated about a vertical axis to provide access to the circular array of material, the vertical axis of rotation of the reclaimer being disposed such that it is not coincident with the longitudinal axis of said support column, wherein the reclaimer device is rotatable about its own axis through a range of 0.degree. to about 310.degree. without interference with the support column.
