ABSTRACT:
A mobile cargo discharge device which moves across the floor of a container, pulling cargo under vacuum pressure into a discharge opening in the front of the device and outputting cargo into a conventional discharge conduit such as a pneumatic or screw conveying device. The device may also have a fluidizing mechanism on the forward wall which disturbs the cargo and enhances cargo flow through the discharge opening. The fluidizing mechanism is implemented through vibration or through jet streams of air emitted from the forward wall of the device. The device can be used in containers with or without liners.
