RETRACTABLE RELOADING CONVEYOR Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC B65G33/24 B65G47/18 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: reloading conveyor includes conveying pipe supporting rotatable reloading screw accommodated in it, and transfer drive mechanism made capable to actuate reloading screw with rotation to transfer material from inlet to outlet of conveying pipe. Manifold housing - generally in the form of bin - is made capable to slide along conveying pipe between extended position where manifold housing communicates with conveying pipe outlet and retracted position where manifold housing is located closer to charge end of conveying pipe than in extended position. Installation of manifold housing on charge end of implement, for example agricultural conveyor, provides possibility of extending and retraction of reloading conveyor charge end relative to the implement.

EFFECT: simplified design.
