摘要:
A deviating station for a handling arrangement has a plurality of supporting rollers arranged on a supporting frame in groups so as to form a plurality of supporting points for a movable band conveyor element and a movable cover band element of the arrangement, and a shape-variable roller holder which is arranged to support the supporting rollers of at least some of the supporting points of at least one of the movable elements and follows the movement of the band conveyor element and the cover band element.

The disclosure is directed to a take-up head for a conveyor installation that removes bulk material from the hold of a ship. The take-up head includes a vertical conveying tube carried by a frame, the lower end of the tube defining a take-up aperture. A rotary feeder having a plurality of radially extending spiral veins is rotatably driven to drive material inwardly to the take-up aperture. A holding device, which takes various forms in the several embodiments, projects downward in coaxial relation relative to the feeder to engage the bulk material and resist lateral movement of the take-up head. Anchoring apparatus, which takes the form of a plurality of laterally extending pivotal arms or a laterally extending auxiliary conveyor, is constructed for lowering into engagement with the material to resist rotation of the frame as the feeder rotates. The take-up head is suspended from an on-shore jib that moves the head to various positions within the ship's hold to remove all bulk material.
