APPARATUS FOR LOADING HOTMIX IN A SURGE BIN

摘要

Hotmix is continuously delivered by conveyor to the top of a surge bin, and is intermittently held back from dropping into the bin by a pulse feeder which continuously receives the hotmix and pulsingly discharges the hotmix to the surge bin. The feeder includes an open topped container with a central discharge opening which is intermittently opened and closed by pneumatically activated clam gates.
