Radial stacking conveyor system with feeder
A device conveying a solid material into a radially-arranged stockpile. The device has a a trailer chassis, with at least one wheeled axle at a first end thereof and, at a second end thereof, means provided for attaching the trailer chassis to a tractor in a mobile condition and for fixed mounting in an operational condition. A stacking conveyor is mounted near the first end of the trailer chassis. A power unit for generating electrical and hydraulic power is positioned on the trailer chassis. A feed system is mounted to the trailer chassis and extends generally along the length thereof from the second end to the first end, to receive the solid material at the second end and transport the solid material to the stacking conveyor.
FILL UNDER GRAIN COVER
A fill under tarp for grain and grain storage system is disclosed. The fill under has a tarp body with a plurality of tarp sections having an inner edge extending to a terminal outer edge defining an outer perimeter. A tarp section seam is disposed between tarp sections. A yoke having a center and opposing inner and outer terminal edges is disposed generally in the center of the tarp body and configured for strengthening the tarp body. A corner of the outer terminal edge of the yoke is disposed coincident with the tarp section seam. A transition seam is disposed between the outer terminal edge of the yoke and inner edge of the tarp body. An opening in the yoke has an outer circumference coincident with the inner edge of the yoke so that the opening is configured to receive grain for storing underneath the fill under tarp.
Reclaimers, reclaimer systems, and methods of using same
Disclosed herein are reclaimer systems, troughs, and methods for selectively positioning at least a portion of an upper portion of a trough relative to a vertical axis to adjust an operative height of the trough and thereby set an overflow threshold height for the reclaimed material, wherein reclaimed material below the overflow threshold height contributes to a target reclaim rate for the reclaimer system, and wherein the trough is configured to permit overflow of reclaimed material above the overflow threshold height.

CONVEYOR STOCKPILE DESEGREGATION SYSTEMS, METHODS AND APPARATUS
Systems, methods and apparatus are provided for creating an at least partially desegregated stockpile. In some embodiments the stockpile comprises one or more windrows. In some embodiments an operating speed (e.g., belt speed) of the conveyor is varied to create windrows at various distances from the conveyor.
