ABSTRACT:
A mobile drum filling assembly that may be drawn along side a railroad tank car or other liquid containing tank to draw liquid therefrom, and sequentially fill a number of drums with predetermined weights of the liquid. The assembly is preferably of such design that two drums may be filled and weighed concurrently, with the weighed drums thereafter moving by gravity on conveyors to a platform where they are sequentially removed preferably by lift truck to an adjacent holding area, into adjacent warehouse facilities, or onto a truck bed or other vehicle for transportation to a desired destination. Fumes that may arise during the filling operation are together with air drawn upwardly by vacuum means to a wash tower, with the fumes being removed before the air with which they were mixed, is discharged to the ambient atmosphere. The liquid may be withdrawn from the tank car either by gravity flow, an electrically driven pump, or by pressurizing the interior of the tank car with air. Should it be desired, the assembly may be employed to circulate the liquid out of and into the tank car for a desired period of time prior to the drum filling operation to assure that the liquid in the tank car is homogenious in nature and thoroughly mixed.
