ABSTRACT:
A device is disclosed for use in demolishing a consolidated and hardened slurry body remaining in the form of a wall along the sidewalls of a hold in a ship or the like, being particularly useful in a wet-loading and dry-unloading method used in an iron-ore carrier which is loaded with iron-ore in a slurry state in its hold. For demolishing slurry walls, an arm having reciprocating edges at opposite ends thereof is extended downwardly from the deck of the carrier into the hold to thereby demolish the slurry walls. This device is removable and its essential parts are designed to be replaceable with other parts to accommodate different hold dimensions, so that use is practical in all carriers. The device alternatively may include a backdozer which also uses a reciprocating edge extending from its boom. The device disclosed here thereby provides for a safe and efficient demolishing operation without relying upon manual labor.
