Compost cut from pile by belt-mounted scrapers - transferred by inclined conveyor belt to new location

摘要

Compost is removed from the end of an elongated pile by the action of horizontal cutter and chopper blades affixed to a flexible belt circulating round vertical axes and of similar height to the pile. Laterally of the belt is an inclined conveyor with transverse feed bars and pivotable about a joint to deposit removed compost to start a fresh pile. Drive mechanisms for cutter belt and conveyor belt may operate from a single power source or from separate hydraul1c motors. The unit is mounted on wheels or runners. ADVANTAGE - Reduced tendency to clog.
