The filling of a bunker (5) with bulk material, particularly an extinguishing bunker with incandescent coke, is effected through an upper filling opening (10) by means of a tank (9) without said tank effecting a tipping motion with respect to brackets (4), which are rigidly connected to the metal structure (10) and resiliently to the filling opening (19) of the bunker. To speed up the filling, the motion of the tank (5) is guided by a guide (1) secured to the steel structure (10) and a moving guide (11) connected to the lifting device (3). The tank (9) is provided at the bottom with valves which open only after depositing the tank (9) onto the brackets (4) and form the loading hopper. The invention may also be used for loading pre-heated coal into a coking plant. |
