The receiving end is level with the vehicle. A hopper includes an inlet orifice and at least one outlet orifice for the bulk material. The at least one outlet of the hopper is configured to discharge the bulk material onto the receiving ends of the belt conveyors.

Abstract: A belt conveyor includes a conveyor belt configured to move in a longitudinal direction. The conveyor belt has two large faces, and a number of support stations distributed longitudinally along the conveyor belt. The support stations are configured to support the conveyor belt by one of the large faces. At least one support station includes a drive motor configured to drive the conveyor belt in the longitudinal direction relative to the support stations.

Abstract: The unloading device comprises: at least two conveyor belts each extending in a longitudinal direction (X-X?) between an end for receiving the bulk material and an end for discharging the bulk material, the receiving end being level with the vehicle; and a hopper comprising an inlet orifice and at least one outlet orifice of the bulk material, the at least one outlet of the hopper being configured to discharge the bulk material onto the receiving ends of the belt conveyors.

Abstract: A conveying system for conveying a divided material forming a pile includes a trench extending in a main direction. The trench is under a reception location of the pile along an direction of elevation. The conveying system also includes a conveyor extending along a route, which includes at least one reception portion extending into the trench. The conveying system further includes a number of protectors extending across the trench above the reception portion in the direction of elevation, and a carriage adapted to move along the trench and including a first actuator adapted to successively move each protector in the main direction.

Abstract: A support station includes a frame, at least two support rollers separated transversely by a gap, and a nip angle protector, which includes, for the or each gap, a gap protector placed longitudinally opposite the gap on an upstream side of the gap. The support station can be manufactured by obtaining a profile with a continuous upper edge and a continuous lower part along its entire length, and cutting the space and the slots, by T-punching the profile.

Abstract: A belt conveyor includes a longitudinal self-supporting belt, a number of belt support stations, each of which includes a base, a tower fixed on the base and belt support devices fixed on the tower. At least some support stations include devices to move the stations, and the belt support devices are fixed on the tower at a height above the ground greater than one meter.

Abstract: A process is for the maintenance of a belt conveyor, which includes a longitudinal conveyor belt and a number of support stations for the conveyor belt distributed along the conveyor belt. Each support station includes a cradle on which the conveyor belt rests. The process includes inserting an inflatable pad in a deflated state below the conveyor belt, in a lifting position near one of the support stations, inflating the inflatable pad to an inflated state in which the conveyor belt rests directly on the inflatable pad and no longer rests on the cradle of the support station, performing a maintenance operation on the support station, and deflating the inflatable pad to its deflated state.
