ABSTRACT:
An earth working machine in the form of a motorized vehicle having a longitudinally extending, upwardly and rearwardly inclined belt-type conveyor combined with a transversely extending conveyor at the rear thereof rigidly supported in relation to the rear discharge end of the longitudinal conveyor. The forward end of the longitudinal conveyor or machine is provided with interchangeable earth working of handling implements so that the machine may be used for multiple purposes. The longitudinal conveyor has the forward end portion supported from the machine by a vertically pivotal subframe to enable variation in the elevational position of the longitudinal conveyor. The rearward portion of the longitudinal conveyor is supported by a transverse, horizontal support member which does not constrain the rearward portion of the longitudinal conveyor from moving in a vertical direction. The transverse conveyor is provided with supporting wheels which in the normal position of the conveyors are spaced from the ground surface but which will support the transverse conveyor and the rearward portion of the longitudinal conveyor from the ground surface when the forward portion of the longitudinal conveyor is elevated thereby rendering the machine useful for various earth working or handling procedures.
