Ballast plow for ballasting a track

摘要

The ballast silo (14) of a ballast plow (1) is connected on a rear end, relative to an operating direction (5), to the machine frame (3) by a joint (22). A pivot drive (25) is provided for pivoting the ballast silo (14) about a joint axis (24) of the joint (22), the joint axis (24) being normal to the longitudinal direction of the plow. Associated with a discharge end (18) of a base conveyor belt (16) at a distance from the joint (22) is a transfer conveyor belt (28) for transferring the stored ballast (12) to a storage car adjacent to the ballast plow (1).
