  • Patent number: 7201573
    Abstract: A device for emptying hot particle material from a chamber into a transport container. The container is provided with a first pipe that can be inserted into the particle material in the chamber, and a second pipe that is connected to a vacuum source via a precipitator. The first and second pipes communicate with the upper part of the container and are spaced from each other to permit rejection of particle material in the container. The container has an outlet in its lower, downwardly narrowing part. The outlet is provided with a valve. A vertical chute surrounds the outlet, extends downwardly therefrom, and has an evacuation pipe for withdrawal of powder mixed with air that is generated inside the shaft, while particle material is being emptied through the outlet and outlet valve. The container includes a heat exchanger to cool the powder material deposited in the container. An air flow into the container.
