ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for handling and transporting a product such as coal as a slurry in a mine. The apparatus is used in combination with a digging machine which also has included therewith means for conveying the coal or material released by the digging machine to a hopper for mixing water thereto to form a slurry, and a terminal for taking a slurry to the surface of the mine. The apparatus includes a dual flexible hose system interconnecting the terminal with the slurry hopper. A plurality of carts are spaced along the hose system to support the hose off of the mine floor and to provide mobility to the hose. The system further contemplates a means for storing a long length of hose and a means for activating the support carts to move only that portion of the hose which is not in storage. The carts will follow the movements of the coal digging machine into and out of the room where the coal is being removed. Further features include means for removing the hose system from storage and for making turns in the mine passages.
