HYDRAULIC MECHANIZED COMPLEX FOR HANDLING LOOSE LOADS Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC B65G27/24 

FIELD: materials handling facilities.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for unloading sand from barges at dredging in water reservoirs. Proposed hydraulic mechanized complex for discharging loose loads has watercraft with dredge pump provided with suction branch pipe, delivery pipeline, boom and winch for lifting suction branch pipe. Dredged pump is mounted on swivel platform with boom and counterweight secured on platform. Lower part of suction branch pipe is perforated and furnished with sealed casing concentrically enclosing said part of suction branch pipe. Inner space of casing is connected to pipeline whose free end is dipped in water. Horizontal sections of suction branch pipe and pipeline are arranged coaxially, with possibility of turning in supports secured on boom. Delivery pipeline is coupled with dredge pump by vertical insert with possibility of turning of dredge pump relative to insert. Delivery branch pipe of pump is arranged along axis of platform turning. Suction branch pipe and pipeline are intercoupled by bridges one of which is connected by flexible member through deflecting sheave with drum winch mounted on boom.

EFFECT: provision of complete unloading of sand from barge at reliable transportation of slurry along delivery pipeline to bank of water reservoir.
