Automatic silage loading and unloading work for bunker silo (part 1) -- proto-type loading and unloading device

摘要

A prototype loading and unloading device for a small test bunker-silo was developed and its performances were investigated. The traveling device running on rails which are installed on the walls of bunker-silo and the working device suspended from the traveling device performed well. The compression density after loading and compressing work was 318～490 kg/m{sup}3, and the unloading efficiency of sorghum silage was 226kg/min.
