Hoist loading skip with flat bottom - turns during lifting for bottom discharging via angled gate

摘要

The skip is flat bottomed with side rollers and an angled discharge gate at one end. A rope drive moves the skip on tracks. At the lower station the skip lies horizontal for filling. After take-off it turns by guidance of the track travelling to the upper station in the discharging position. Roller opens the gate at the chute. Across the skip's open top, bar grilling deflects the contents during filling, to spread the loading, and retains the contents after turning. The advantage of flat bottom filling and funnel bottom discharge are combined.
