ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for transportation of cargoes in containers along a closed loop track having at least two spaced handling stations each station having a zone of reception of containers and a zone of delivery of containers, each portion of the track connecting the zone of delivery of one handling station to the zone of reception of an adjacent handling station comprising a pipeline communicating, via air admission pipes, with a source of compressed air for moving the containers, and each container having at least one sealing member closing the cross-sectional area of the pipeline. The zone of reception of each handling station comprises a portion of the track permanently communicating with atmosphere and inclined in the direction of movement of containers, and the zone of delivery of each handling station comprising a portion of the track permanently communicating with atmosphere and an independent drive for moving the containers along this portion of the track. The air admission pipes connecting the pipelines to the source of compressed air are spaced from the entrance to each pipeline at a distance which is at least equal to the distance between the adjacent sealing members of the adjacent containers when they are in the closest position relative to each other. This construction of the arrangement lowers the manufacturing cost and improves the throughput capacity in operation.
