A portable conveyor system receives and conveys particulate material to downstream equipment. The system includes a base frame, a material handling assembly carried on the base frame for depositing the material into the downstream equipment, and at least one adjustable feed conveyor to convey the material from a source onto the material handling assembly. The feed conveyor is movable in various manners relative to the base frame between a working position and a stored position. The material handling assembly includes a main conveyor assembly to convey material along the base frame from the feed conveyors to an elevating assembly at one end of the base frame. The elevating assembly is collapsible in height relative to the base frame for transport.
A portable conveyor system for receiving particulate material and for conveying said particulate material to downstream equipment having an intake, the portable conveyor system comprising:
The portable conveyor system according to any one of claims 58 through 62 wherein the cover system spans laterally outwardly from the base frame over a transport truck receiving passageway that extends longitudinally alongside the base frame so as to be arranged to receive transport trucks passing therethrough beneath the cover system.
The portable conveyor system according to claim any one of claims 57 through 63 wherein the cover system includes a main support member extending in a longitudinal direction of the base frame defining an apex of the cover system, and a pair of side portions extending outward from laterally opposing sides of the main support member over respective transport truck receiving passageways that extend longitudinally along opposing sides of the base frame so as to be arranged to receive transport trucks passing through each of the passageways beneath the cover system.
A method for transferring particulate material, the method comprising the steps of:
