Catwalk and conveyor support system for grain handling

A catwalk assembly for extending between storage receptacles, comprising:

• a first storage receptacle;
• a second storage receptacle;
• a first raised section having a first walkway, a first rail assembly, and a second rail assembly, wherein said first raised section extends between said first storage receptacle and said second storage receptacle;
• wherein said walkway is removably connected with respect to said first rail assembly and said second rail assembly, and wherein each of said rail assemblies include a plurality of horizontal rails, a plurality of vertical rails, and a plurality of angled rails, wherein said plurality of horizontal rails, said plurality of vertical rails, and said plurality of angled rails are removably connected to each other thus permitting disassemblage of said first raised section;
• wherein said first raised section includes a plurality of lower supports, wherein said plurality of lower supports traverse said walkway, wherein said plurality of lower supports are removably connected to said first rail assembly along a first end of said plurality of lower supports and said second rail assembly along a second end of said plurality of lower supports, wherein said walkway is removably connected to said plurality of lower supports between said first rail assembly and said second rail assembly;
• and
• wherein said plurality of lower supports are spaced apart along a length of said walkway;
• a plurality of conveyor supports removably connected to at least some of said plurality of lower supports, wherein said plurality of conveyor supports are adjustably connected in a vertical manner to said at least some of said plurality of lower supports.

A system for transferring granular material to one or more storage receptacles, comprising:

• a catwalk having a walkway and one or more guard rails, wherein said catwalk extends between one or more storage receptacles;
• a plurality of conveyor supports each having a vertical section and a horizontal section, wherein said vertical section is adjustably connected to said catwalk and wherein said horizontal section vertically adjusts with respect to said catwalk via vertical adjustment of said vertical section;
• wherein each of said plurality of conveyor supports are arranged in a linear manner, and wherein each of said plurality of conveyor supports independently adjust relative each other and relative said catwalk;
• and
• one or more conveyors for transporting granular material to said one or more storage receptacles, wherein said one or more conveyors are supported upon said horizontal sections of said plurality of conveyor supports, wherein an angular disposition of said one or more conveyors relative said catwalk is adjusted via vertical adjustment of one or more of said plurality of conveyor supports;
• wherein each of said conveyor supports is comprised of an inverted U-shaped structure;
• wherein each of said plurality of conveyor supports include a first vertical support having a first upper opening and a plurality of first adjustment openings, wherein said plurality of first adjustment openings are evenly-spaced along a first length of said first vertical support and wherein each of said plurality of conveyor supports include a second vertical support having a second upper opening and a plurality of second adjustment openings, wherein said plurality of second adjustment openings are evenly-spaced along a second length of second first vertical support, wherein said first vertical support and said second vertical support incrementally adjust in a vertical manner relative said catwalk, wherein said horizontal section has a first end opening and a second end opening, wherein said first end opening aligns with said first upper opening of said first vertical support for attachment thereto and wherein said second end opening aligns with said second upper opening of said second vertical support for attachment thereto;
• wherein said plurality of conveyor supports include a first conveyor support, a second conveyor support, and a third conveyor support, wherein said first conveyor support is adjusted to a first vertical height, wherein said second conveyor support is adjusted to a second vertical height, and wherein said third conveyor support is adjusted to a third vertical height, wherein said first vertical height, said second vertical height and said third vertical height are each different relative said catwalk;
• wherein said catwalk includes a plurality of lower supports for supporting said walkway and said one or more guard rails and wherein said plurality of lower supports support said plurality of conveyor supports;
• wherein said plurality of conveyor supports adjustably connect to said plurality of lower supports;
• wherein said one or more guard rails includes a first rail assembly positioned along a first longitudinal side of said walkway and a second rail assembly positioned along a second longitudinal side of said walkway, wherein said plurality of conveyor supports are located between said second rail assembly and said second side of said walkway;
• wherein said first rail assembly and said second rail assembly each include a plurality of horizontal rails, a plurality of vertical rails, and a plurality of angled rails.
