MATERIAL-FEEDING CONTAINERS FOR THICK-MATTER PUMPS

摘要

A material-feeding container is disclosed for two-cylinder thick-matter pumps having feeding cylinders (14) that open into the container. Inside the container is arranged a switchable guide-tube (26) linked to the feeding line (24) and alternatively movable between the openings (16) of the feeding cylinders (14). A cleaning and servicing opening (33) that can be closed with a cap (34) provided with an agitator (36) is arranged in each side wall (42). When the closing cap (34) hinged on the material-feeding container (10) is opened, the agitator pivots out of the container through the servicing opening (33), making the switchable guide-tube (26) and its wearing parts (28, 30) freely accessible from the outside.
