ABSTRACT:
A system for pneumatically conveying a quantity of fluent particulate material from one holding tank or storage vessel to another is disclosed. A mobile frame is employed upon which is disposed an engine for operating a hydraulic pump and a vacuum blower. A material loading container in which an air permeable particle filter is disposed is pivotally connected to an adjustable boom mounted on the frame. The vacuum pump is removably connectable to the container through the filter such that a partial vacuum can be drawn upon the container to induce particulate matter to flow into the latter through a hose connected to a remote source of bulk material. Upon completion of the container filling operation, the vacuum pump is switched from its connection with the container so as to connect to ambient atmosphere while, at the same time, the filter is exposed to ambient atmosphere to backflush and clean coated material from the surface of the filter and permit a counterweighted plate to tilt open to discharge accumulated material from the base of the container. A hydraulic circuit for operation of the container, steering and driving of the frame, and adjustment of the boom is also disclosed.
