Filed:

Nov 25, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/200255

Inventors:

Edward L. Conner - Medina OH

Assignee:

Ohio Machinery Co. - Broadview Heights OH

International Classification:

B65G 4100

US Classification:

198300

Abstract:

A self-transporting conveyor system suitable for handling the discharge of a rock or concrete crusher, for example. The system includes a pair of stacking conveyors and a pair of transfer conveyors all of which are assembled together for towing by a single highway tractor. The conveyors can be set up at a desired site using available equipment, such as a loader, so that the cost of a special crane is avoided. Each stacking conveyor includes a self-contained hydraulic power supply that allows it to hydraulically fold up for transport, and unfold for operation, and enables it to hydraulically pivot back and forth during operation to build a kidney-shaped pile.

Abstract:

A portable screen plant for use with a portable crusher for recycling demolition materials and like work. The plant includes a highway trailer on which is carried an upwardly inclined screen feed conveyor and classifying screens beneath the feed conveyor. The frame is articulated such that its forward end can be raised during screening operation to suspend a magnetic separator at a high elevation over a zone adjacent the discharge end of the screen feed conveyor. During transport, the front frame section and magnetic separator are at a lower elevation to provide adequate height clearance for highway travel. The screen feed conveyor is articulated on the trailer to improve road clearance during transport and afford efficient material flow during operation.
