METHOD OF AIR-DRIED BRICK STACKING FOR THERMAL PROCESSING Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC B28B15/00 B65G57/20 

FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: method of air-dried brick stacking for thermal processing includes transfer of bricks onto accumulator conveyor, stepwise completing of a brick layer thereon and subsequent stacking. Prior to operation the stacker is moved to the position allowing the capture of the first layer, and, prior to the following uplifting and carrying of bricks onto the truck, the subsequent layer first line position is determined by means of computer-aided control unit. The designed grid point of the final line of the following layer within the stacker operating area in compliance with the stacking chart is determined, the actual position of the initial line of the following layer is determined by means of a recording device after the accumulator conveyor travel. The following layer final line grid point is corrected allowing for the initial line actual position and the stacker is automatically moved to the position to grip the next layer.

EFFECT: high-speed stacking.
