ABSTRACT:
A pressurizing station (1) for a pipeline conveyor (2) includes a transfer conduit (5) for the passage of load-carrying capsules (3) between upstream and downstream portions (4 and 6) of the pipeline (4, 5 and 6) and a reverse, by-pass conduit (20) extending between outlet and inlet conduits (9 and 10) respectively connected to upstream and downstream ends (7 and 8) of the transfer conduit (5). A fan (36) is provided between the outlet and inlet conduits (9 and 10). A valve member (17) is mounted on an axis extending transversely of the transfer conduit (5) and is movable, in response to fluid flow through the pressurizing station (1), between a closed position, in which first and second opposite ends (21 and 22) of the valve member (17) respectively extend across the transfer conduit (5) and across the reverse, by-pass conduit (20), and an open position in which the first end (21) of the valve member (17) is clear of the path of capsules (3) travelling through the transfer conduit (5).
