The guns, so-called, are pressure vessels about 6 in. in diameter and 30 in. long. They are provided with a steam inlet, a bleed-off valve, and a means for heating the gun-usually by a gas flame. A charge of pellets [made from cereals] at 11 to 12% moisture is dropped into the open end of the gun from a gravity chute leading from the storage bins on the floor above. The end of the gun is sealed by a trip-valve. All valves are closed, sealing the gun. If the gun is heated by gas flames, it is slowly rotated while the temperature, and consequently the pressure, is slowly built up. The temperature may reach 500 to 800 degrees F, and the pressure at the end point may be 100 to 200 psi.... When the pressure reaches the necessary level, the end of the gun is suddenly opened by a trigger mechanism. The contents explode... into a cage or bin with a floor opening leading to a conveyor belt. 3, record 1, English, - puffing%20gun

The conveyorized platform system is a totally automated system in the line of GERBERcutters. It consists of a conveyor cutting system placed on top of an electrically motorized platform. This enables the system to ride on floor mounted tracks from one spreading table to the next.... The operating procedure for the platform system is to lay-up the spreading tables, move the platform system to a spreading table and then pull the lay onto the cutting surface until the vacuum grabs it. The bite feed process will cut the lay and move it onto bundling tables. After the last bite is positioned and as the cutter continues to cut, the platform moves to the next prepared table for acceptance of the next lay. 1, record 3, English, - conveyorized%20platform%20system

The grain discharges onto a conveyor belt and is transferred to the boot of the receiving leg. En route it passes under a large electro magnet which removes all ferrous metal from the grain.

The storage buildings are also dilapidated. They have a floor sloping at around 5° to a central unloading conveyor. The floor is constructed from asphalt with perforated metal strips at about 1 metre intervals to provide underfloor ventilation. The strips are each connected to an axial fan outside the building, but each runs right to the edge of the building so the bulk of the ventilation air will take the path of least resistance and escape up the walls of the building.

A trade name for a heavy caterpillar-mounted continuous miner for operation in thick seams. The front end contains two cutter-arms which rotate in opposite directions to sweep the coal they cut inwards towards the centre. The broken coal is taken back through the machine to a chain conveyor. Two cutter chains are arranged at roof and floor level behind the arms to cut down the coal left between the rotating arms. The machine cuts an area 12 ft wide and 7 ft high. Power is supplied by two motors, one of 70 h. p. and the other 25 h. p. It has a continuous capacity from 3 to 3 1/2 t. p. m.

A longwall cutter-loader of the plough type, with two cutting blades, one at each end, operated by a hydraulic cylinder which can give a powerful thrust(about 42 tons) to the blades and cause them to bite into the coal. While this thrust is being exerted, the machine is anchored by means of a vertical jack which engages the roof and floor. The jack is built on sliding bars and the machine is moved by sliding the jack along the bars to the next position for anchoring the machine. It travels alongside the conveyor but is not connected to it. A loading ramp guides the cut coal on to the conveyor.

Celle-ci est formée d'un étançon vertical à double effet qui coince la machine entre mur et toit et d'un cylindre horizontal muni d'un piston également à double effet. Le piston horizontal porte, à chacune de ses extrémités, un coin d'attaque qui peut exercer sur le massif une pression de 42 t. La réaction est supportée par l'étançon vertical. La tête coupante peut ainsi pénétrer de 80 cm dans le massif.

A rapid plough for use on longwall faces. The machine is superior to the original Loebbe Hobel and can negotiate small faults or washouts on the face by the use of more than one plough. It is suitable for seams from 2 to 8 ft thick, with reasonably good roof and floor. The plough travels along the face at a speed of 75 f. p. m. with a cutting depth from 1 1/2 to 3 in. and the broken coal is loaded by the plough-shaped body on to an armoured conveyor. The machine can be operated independently of the face conveyor. 2, record 14, English, - Anbauhobel

Le Anbauhobel ou rabot rajouté. C'est une modification du rabot rapide. Ici, la tête de commande du rabot est indépendante de la tête motrice du blindé et s'adapte latéralement à celui-ci [...] Une deuxième tête peut être placée en taille à n'importe quel endroit, par exemple avant une faille qui empêcherait de raboter plus loin. Quelquefois, cette deuxième tête est remplacée par une simple étoile de retour fixée en n'importe quel point du convoyeur blindé [...] Le rabot rajouté entraîne quelques complications électriques, les moteurs devant tourner dans les deux sens et avoir deux protections contre les surintensités. Par contre, on n'est plus obligé de démonter complètement le rabot lorsqu'un accident apparaît en taille. On rabote au contraire ce que l'on veut. On peut même avoir deux rabots indépendants pour deux moitiés de taille se trouvant par exemple de part et d'autre d'une faille. 1, record 14, French, - rabot%20rajout%C3%A9

Drum shearer. The shearer has two cutting wheels that can be positioned from the roof to the floor of the coal. The shearer moves on the tracks on the conveyor frame while the wheels cut and load the coal on the conveyor. After the drum shearer has gone by a section of supports the positioning cylinders are actuated, pushing the face conveyor the width of the shearer cut closer to the face. The supports are moved one at a time after the face conveyor is in its new position. 3, record 16, English, - drum%20shearer
