At the Alabama State Docks, tfj&ile,' Xfibamo . . . the Ship, loaded with Bauxite Bj* from Trinidad, docks alongside of the new neyi:& Patterson Traveling Unloading Tower. TheTClirtte is rapidly unloaded from the ship and dejoshed onto a belt conveyor for its first step to the processing plant. KThis modern 800*tonsper*hour (Jnloader .* . Resigned, fabricated and erected for the State of Uibama . . . currently unloads iron ore and man* jsneseore as well as bauxite.' ijThe special features of this unloading tower Ulus* rate how it was designed to fit operating conditions ^Mobile and why it is one of the finest unloaders E|n operation today. *(I) The Tower is equipped with an extradong rantilever which enables material to be transferred Bjorn the ship either to the conveyor system or directly ga river barge. In the-latter operation the barge is gttiioned at the opposite side of the ship from the Fwer and the trolley moves from above the ship to the extreme end of the cantilever to load the barge. (2) Because of the short rail spacing between the trucks, the machinery house is placed far to the rear of the tower to counter-balance the weight of the extra-long cantilever. (3) Adjustable voltage electrical control Is used to provide smooth starting and stopping and the fastest possible operation. The use of adjustable voltage towers maintenance costs and reduces power Josses. (4) The filtered air in the machinery house is kept constantly at a higher pressure thanjthe outside air. This prevents infiltration of dun and prevents overheating of equipment. (3 ) The. operator's cab is mounted on a heavy ram . ond moves out over the hold of the vessel when unloading. This enables the operator to have a full view of the hold at all times. (6) Each bucket of ore con be weighed by means of o force cell application which indicates the bucket weight in the operator's cab. Heyl & Potfersoo has never designed or built "cotalog" loading or unlooding equipment. Every Heyt & Potterson installation it especially engineered to meet the particular needs of the customer.
