Abstract
An apparatus for transferring coke in measured quantities from an inclined wharf on to a horizontal conveyor, which comprises a roll being provided with a circumferential shell enclosing a chamber with a peripheral aperture. The peripheral apeture extends straight or helically over the entire length of the roll. The helical peripheral aperture extends only over a zone of about 270.degree..

In an apparatus for uniformly and controllably removing coke delivered continuously from an inclined wharf without any retaining grate and in combination with a horizontal endless conveyor belt arranged below and extending longitudinally of the lower discharge end of said wharf which has a concave-shaped end surface, a rotatably mounted and continuously driven roll openly disposed at said discharge end of said wharf for uniformly transferring the coke in measured quantities on to said horizontal conveyor, said roll being provided with a circumferential shell enclosing a chamber within the cavity of said hollow roll, said concave-shaped end surface forming a gap with the respective opposite-adjacent surface portion of said circumferential shell, said chamber having a peripheral aperture provided in said circumferential shell, said peripheral aperture extending helically over the periphery and extending longitudinally over the entire length of said roll but only a small portion of the periphery of said chamber.
An apparatus for uniformly and controllably removing coke delivered continuously from an inclined wharf without any retaining grate and in combination with a horizontal endless conveyor belt arranged below and extending longitudinally of the lower discharge end of said wharf comprising:
- a concave-shaped end surface at the lower discharge end of said wharf, a rotatably mounted and continuously driven roll disposed at said discharge end of said wharf for transferring the coke in measured quantities on to said horizontal conveyor, said roll being provided with a circumferential shell enclosing a chamber within the cavity of said hollow roll, said concave-shaped end surface forming a gap with the respective opposite-adjacent surface portion of said circumferential shell, said chamber having a peripheral aperture provided in said circumferential shell and extending longitudinally over the entire length of said roll, said peripheral aperture extending helically only over a zone of about 270.degree. of the entire periphery of said hollow roll, wherein a zone of about 90.degree. of the entire periphery of said hollow roll is provided with a closed smooth surface of said shell which closed surface zone extends over the entire length of said hollow roll.
