Device for unloading a tank or hopper of a road or railway vehicle allowing multi-directional unloading operations

摘要

The device for unloading a hopper comprises a support consisting of two end plates (10) which can pivot about a shaft and two chutes (3,4) provided with studs (3b,3c,4b,4c) interacting with slideways (11,12) cut out in the said support. The slideways have a shape which enables the chutes to occupy separately or simultaneously three different inclination positions, with respect to the said support, one of the positions allowing central unloading, the other bilateral unloading and the third unilateral unloading, when it is combined with a tilting of the support. This device can be used for unloading a cereal hopper. IMAGE
