Ground milling machine, in particular road miller, with a conveying apparatus for transporting milled material, and method of conveying milled material of a ground milling machine

A ground milling machine, comprising:

• a machine frame;
• an operator platform;
• a drive engine;
• travelling apparatuses driven by the drive engine;
• a milling unit to mill ground material;
• and
• a conveying apparatus to transport milled material from the milling unit to a discharge point, with a transfer conveyor, and a loading conveyor which is downstream in a conveying direction, and with a material transfer apparatus arranged between the transfer conveyor and the loading conveyor in a material transfer region, the material transfer apparatus being configured so as to direct milled material from the transfer conveyor to the loading conveyor, and the transfer conveyor and the loading conveyor each comprising a support frame,
• wherein the material transfer apparatus comprises a milled-material-directing transfer chute and a locking apparatus,
• wherein the transfer chute has a chute guide surface extending at least partially in a horizontal direction and running in an at least partially descending manner from the transfer conveyor to the loading conveyor,
• wherein the transfer chute is arranged at least partially immovably with respect to the transfer conveyor, and
• wherein the transfer chute is pivotably adjustable relative to the transfer conveyor and/or linearly adjustable relative to the transfer conveyor, and
• wherein the transfer chute is lockable in various pivot and/or linear positions relative to the transfer conveyor with the locking apparatus.
