ABSTRACT:
A movable continuous bulk material conveyer, especially for unloading ships. A steep-rise conveyor is provided that comprises a conveyor belt and a cover belt. The bulk material is thrown by two casting reels into the lower gap between the conveyor belt and the cover belt. Since during the meander-like removal of material from the hold of a ship, the position of the casting reels and the steep-rise conveyor relative to one another constantly changes, the shafts of the casting reels are pivotably connected via a quadrilateral articulation with the lower guide pulleys of the steep-rise conveyor, and are controlled by hydraulic pistons from a computer in such a way that the casting reels always pick up a constant stream of bulk material and throw this material in the direction of the angle bisector of the gap of the steep-rise conveyor.
