Abstract: Train position is sensed using a position sensing unit having plurality of position sensors arrayed in the direction of train travel. The sensors respond to the presence and absence of a detection element on each train car, the detection element being longer than the spacing between adjacent position sensors. A confirmed count of a train car passing the position sensing unit requires detection of a series of related position sensor activations and deactivations. Alternately, the position sensing unit senses data tags on the train cars, reading unique identifiers therefrom. A list of identifiers corresponding to the car order is stored and compared to the identifiers read in order to determine train position.

Abstract: A bulk material handling system and method use a horizontal boom frame supporting a conveyor mechanism for bulk material that is slidable relative to the horizontal boom frame. The conveyor mechanism is positioned such that, with bulk material received at a fixed location, or loading axis, on the horizontal boom frame, a portion of the conveyor mechanism will always be positioned to receive bulk material. The horizontal boom frame can also be made rotatable about the loading axis. By rotating the horizontal boom frame and advancing or withdrawing the conveyor mechanism, the discharge point for bulk materials relative to the loading axis can be altered radially and angularly without interrupting the flow of bulk materials through the system. A supply bridge assembly can be employed to bring the bulk materials to the loading axis of the boom.
Abstract translation: 散装材料处理系统和方法使用水平支架框架,其支撑相对于水平支架框架可滑动的散装材料的输送机构。 传送机构被定位成使得当散装材料被收纳在固定位置或装载轴上时,在水平臂架上,输送机构的一部分将总是被定位成接收散装材料。 水平起重臂框架也可以围绕加载轴线旋转。 通过旋转水平支架框架并推进或取出输送机构,散装材料相对于负载轴线的排放点可以径向和角度地改变,而不会中断通过系统的散装材料的流动。 可以使用供应桥式组件来将散装材料带到吊杆的加载轴线。
