PCT No. PCT/EP85/00302 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 13, 1986 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 13, 1986 PCT Filed Jun. 22, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO86/00872 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 13, 1986.A circular storage container (1) for granular materials is provided with a central support column (4) for a top-loading filling device (9) and a lateral conveyor (20) for pivotal movement around the support column (4). The lateral conveyor (20) is connected to the filling device via a telescopic, vertically extendable feed pipe (12). The support column (4) is constructed either of ring plates (5) or a helically coiled band, both of which have a downward slanting, angular outer edge section (34). The granule material dropped in the vicinity of the support column (4) slides onto the ring plates (5) or along the helically coiled band according to the shape of its alluvial cone, but cannot drop into the discharge shaft. During the removal process the granular material is forced between the ring plates (5) or between the coils of the helically coiled band, from where it drops into the discharge shaft (7). To prevent clogging during fill removal the outer edges (34) are angular in cross-section with the apex (35) of the angle projecting outwardly.
