Abstract

761,553. Jigging conveyers. COAL INDUSTRY (PATENTS), Ltd. Oct. 18, 1954 [July 16, 1953], No. 19736/53. Class 78 (1). [Also in Group XL (b)] Mixed pieces of coal to be sorted are fed to a downwardly sloping feed conveyer 10 from which they pass via a screen 11 to a vibrating feeder comprising a number of shoots 13. These shoots are inclined both longitudinally and sideways and have a portion of reduced width in which is an aperture 14 through which photo-electric examination takes place. An electrical or pneumatic plunger 19 actuated in accordance with the result of the examination deflects certain pieces to a lower part 131 of each shoot whence they pass to a hopper 17 and are carried away by a conveyer 18. Undeflected pieces are fed to conveyer 21.
